Has anyone seen any reviews of Empires' Battle of Britain? I've only seen one preview and it looks promising but will it beat SDOE? I doubt it but maybe.....

Here is how I rate flight sims and answer the question, 'Is this flight sim good?' with. I ask myself, 'Can I add a plane?' If the answer is no, then the flight sim is not good. If the answer is yes, then the rest of the asthetics kick in and I ask the rest of the questions about realism and stuff.

Yeah that's one of the best things about SDOE and we're lucky to have so many people making planes for us!

Still, I may buy the game when i've tried the demo first!

Because of the setting and planes, BoB is a sim I am eagerly awating. After the success of CFS2, though, I am worried. I rate a sim as good if it installs and runs right out of the box....I never compare the different sims I try against each other, except for finding one or two features I like and dreaming of putting it all together into one great sim. CFS2 surprised me by working...so, I owe it now to keep flying it a while. I did the same with SDOE, and had much less of a system at the time. So, as of now, the best are SDOE, EAW, and CFS2 - the worst, CFS1 and WWII Fighters - because neither installed/ran until I upgraded. Shame on them.

I don't think any beat the other - I don't think they can. I just hope BoB works immediately without crashes; if it does, I'll enjoy it, even at 640x480 with low detail.
