    I downloaded the Demo last night and it was a lot of fun. The keyboard controls are very easy, and I would guess a joystick would make it twice as fun. I probably set the record for most recovered stalls in the second mission though...
    I would really like my Thermaltake prizes... Thanks everyone for my wonderful prizes!

    I preordered from EB Games (Gamestop) and they told me it'd be in on the 3rd. I went in on the 3rd and they said it'd be there on the 4th. I went in today and they said they wont have it for PC until the 18th.

    I told the guy it unlocks on STEAM on the 11th... what good is a preorder if I have to wait over a week to play it? He said "well, that's our vendor, we don't have any control over that..."

    Needless to say, I'm now just going to let the preorder fall though. I've had something similar happen to me before so I've learned when preordering from Game Stop to ONLY put down a 5 dollar deposit.

    When my mom pre ordered fire emblem for my sister's birthday, they said they would give the extra when it was picked up. Then the guy said that they didn't have it, but eventually gave in and went to the back of the store and got the thing that came with it.

    FINALLY! A Game that might stand up to my x52 pro, really. No games have had enough features to really stand up to that stick.

    I hope its fun, I'm downloading the demo now, unfortunately my desktop is in pieces for my mod project. So hopefully the laptop will run it.
    It's like JFK announcing the moon mission. He had no expertise in space travel, and no way of knowing if it would work. He just announced "we're going to the moon" and then they made it happen because everyone was on the same page and working towards the same goal. If he had said "well, let's get some people in space, and we'll see how far out we can get, and if I find someone to make a rocket strong enough, we could possibly approach the moon's orbit and maybe land" it wouldn't have happened.

    My brother is excited about this game. Tomorrow at a decent hour I'll let him know there's a demo. If it's as good as it's being made out to be in this thread then I'll have to take a look at it tomorrow as well.

    Ya, it is a great game but gamestop screwed me by releasing the preorder over a week after the game unlocks. Screw that...

    I'm waiting for Battlefield 1943 now.

    I played it with my joystick, It was great, it premapped to every button on the joystick and worked perfectly. Much more fun than without it.

    Agreed. I wouldn't play it without a stick.
