A long time ago in a galaxy far, far away...There were manuals in those boxes.

Now a bit of nostalgia. In vector graphic sim you kick ass of Japs and their Zeros. Nice and realistic. But look at the manual... 237 pages. 78 pages about history of Pacific War an the war itself. 112 pages about flight, weapons, carriers, medals even full-color one-page drawings of each plane. Awesome. Only 47 pages about game and controls. Plus technical 4 pages instructions. And of course separate controls sheet.
Thank you Sierra and Dynamix.
And yes, the cover of the box is great. That pilot jacket.
Look at Genre to the right. Jet SIm. Funny indeed.
Still waiting for pro sim in Pacific War - who knows maybe realistic plane simulators are not doomed. We've got Sturmovik after all...
