Don't dispair! I have recently found the origonal DEMO! I didn't even know there was one till a few days ago!

You start out in a 262 with rockets, and you haveto attack a formation of 3 B-17Gs...... This game came out in 1991, and the graphics at the time were mind blowing!!! I still rember playing it on my 286!

Enjoy!!!!

Hi man I tried that game a little while ago (month or 2) and as cool as i'm sure it was i just couldn't get into it. The graphics were just too much for me. I couldn't see anything. That was a long time ago and i'm sure they would have been great back then. I remember wanting it really bad back then.

You gotta look past the dated graphics. The sim has a deep inner beauty, and should not be judged by.....................aahhh forget that. The graphis do suck, eh? hehehe

But I still do play it. It will always be one of my fav games.

I guess Star Wars sells better All they had to do, was add a multiplayer option and bump up the res. a bit. They could have easily kept SWOTL alive. Shame they didn't

Same thing with 1942:PAW is was a really good game you could command the fleet, send out recon planes until you found the enemy, launch strikes at them and jump from the strategic view into any of the planes. Torpedo bombing was very cool.. flight model good for the time and graphics so blocky you couldn't see anything.
