Ok I am guessing not everyone will be die hard fans of flight sims, but hey, some might have just gotten used to the idea there simply will never be any for the DS worth caring about.

I'm hardly a flight sim fan, but I don't mind them. I recall waiting on Spitfire Heroes, and man what a let down. It was total garbage. Allied Ace Pilots is nice, but, with IL 2 Sturmovik Birds of Prey we might just finally have been given a real decent flight sim.

I have only given it a first few minutes gander to see if it was even worth my time when I loaded it up on nocash. It ran ok on that, now the next challenge of course, 'does my R4 give a damn'.
Either way, in just those first 3 minutes it was clear it was a long ways better than Spitfire Heroes.

I suspect it will be just fine on the larger consoles, but, I don't have those larger consoles

I played it for about an hour and thought it was pretty shoddy, unfortunately. There's a good game in there somewhere, but it feels like they didn't have enough time to finish it.

    i thought everybody knew cocktails are like 75% ice
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Yeah but not like this.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It's not like they're complaining that their Slurpee is 99% ice or something, but if the cocktail calls for "shot of vodka, shot of vermouth, shot of gin, shot of Campari, three shots of juice, squirt of lemon" and ends up being a thimbleful of booze, that's a problem.
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    the funny thing is cocktails in norway are only allowed to have 1 20ml shot of booze
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    so..... yeah
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    we're used to only having a thimbleful of booze
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Booo.
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    same thing if you want whisky on the rocks or something, you can't get a double
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    but you could buy as many shots of whisky (or anything else) as you want and ask for a glass of ice and pour them in
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    it's dumb
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Maybe.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    There was a comparison of the number of Ibuprofen poisonings before and after they limited the maximum dosage per box or per pill (i'll look that up). No limit on the number of boxes you can still buy as many as you want, so people argued it was pointless.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    But the number of (accidental) poisonings dropped because drinking an entire package of ibuprofen pills went from "I need a new liver" to "I need a new box of Ibuprofen".
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Here we have ketoprofen that used to be prescription-only because of the risk of toxic dosages, but then they halved the dose per pill and sell them in bottles of six pills apiece instead of twenty and it doesn't need a prescription any more. Yes you can buy more than one bottle but people simply don't.
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Usually accidentally overdose of ibuprofen here is from people taking like cold medicine then ibuprofen for a headache and the combination is over what they need
