I did find a way in the demo to change your Camera angle (click the right thumbstick)I think the Multiplayer is going to be Awesome!!!! I found the Demo to be very imersive; but way to short.

I'm curious how it will handle with the optional flight stick. I enjoyed the demo even though I’m not great at flying games. I’m curious how it will handle with the optional flight stick.

But I was very disappointed. There is absolutely no sense of speed in the game. Banking/turning and just flying straight seems like you're standing still. The rumble in the controller tries to give some sense of it, but only when using your afterburners (and even then it is in a predictable cadence). I know it's tough because the game is more of a simulation than anything, so I wouldn't want arcade style additions to it. But there is little excitement from the actual flying, in my opinion. They could add visual cues of the air and clouds around you moving and throw in some escalating audio (e.g. creaks/rumbles) to give the sense that you and your plane are actually experiencing mach speeds. Warhawk does a superb job at this and I believe Crimson Skies also was good.

I'd be testing out the demo too but my 360 is in for it's $99 warranty enhancement. Very nice write up.
