Nothing like thrashing the national enemy to start the holiday season, so I dusted off the flightstick and picked up Secret Weapons over Normandy from my local PC World today.
Good fun and a rare oppertunity for some decent air combat action without having to put up with all the boring bits and a keyboard full of controls. Its basically a slightly more advanced version of Rouge Squadron set in WW2, complete with basic and advanced control modes depending on how fiendish you want to get. Well worth the money if you've got a stick already, althougth milage may vary if you have to play it on a pad or keyboard.
Since they had 3 for 2 on all PC games, I got Call of Duty and Knights of the Old Republic as well. Not too enthusiastic about the latter since its an RPG, but I got it for nowt so theres no complaining. I'll be strait into COD as soon as i've given SWON a good hiding, hopefully it'll be half as good as everybody says it is.
