So who has this? Looks extremely good. Hoping to find it today.
Can't wait to get in an Avenger and torpedo some ships. Strike sounds like a big improvement over BOP, a lot like I was asking for.

360 & PS3 for $40. Apparently this video is about PS3 version. I'll be on 360.

I have the 360 version. So far, I've just fooled around with the training missions (simulator mode). It's quite good. Nice model of the TBF! Carrier T.O. and Landings. Pretty neat stuff! Wish they would have implemented Kinect for looking around rather than using the hat switch, etc... Overall a big improvement over BOP in my opinion.

"Developed by Gaijin Entertainment, Birds of Steel lets players take to the skies in over 100 famous fighters from the entire axis and allied forces, including the Spitfire Mk.V, P-51 Mustang, A6M Zero and the F4F Wildcat. Players can pilot planes in the American, European or Japanese fighting forces and experience lifelike aircraft damage, cockpit views and flight controls. As players complete missions, new planes are unlocked, letting players jump in the cockpit, grab stick and engage in both single and multiplayer campaigns, while doing battle in some of the most iconic moments in history, including the Battle of Midway, Guadalcanal, Coral Sea and the attack on Pearl Harbor."

big fan of Gaijin Entertainment... console games, not perfect games, not sims... but damn fun.

No luck here either. Amazon lists as 2-4 wks for delivery, but they'll probably get more in soon.
GS basically didn't order it, they show "limited".
