After all the delays, I finally got my hands on it! I beleive, from what I've seen so far, it was worth the wait!

I've only got about an hour on it but, compared to BLADES OF THUNDER II, this one leaves it in the dust. The scenery is awesome and REAL. The challenge is certainly there. It's easy to learn but, the difficulty builds as you get through the training phase. Which, by the way, is very appropriate. I'm not a hard core gamer and like to be able to pick up a new title and have it get me started in the right direction instead of just frustrating me and dumping me out in the cold. I think, TOP GUN gets it done. A realistic fighter sim, well, it's not bad. The canyon flying is a little slow but, flying below the canyon walls is not a recommended maneuver in a real jet anyways.... I think if you're looking for something FUN to pick up and play with for a few minutes or an hour, this could be a great choice it you're into flying. They really didn't implement the touch screen for more than 1st/3rd person perspective. Thats a shame, but the D pad is as you'd expect, predictable. For $29.99, this one gets my nod. I'm glad I own one of the 1st copies on the street. I'll be back to add more comments about my experience with this game later! Have fun!
