Joking right?
Storm of War Battle Of Britain should be on any sim/ww2 fan's radar.
the sequel to IL2 Sturmovik the PC original version not the BOP, WOP crap from 2009.

Since I don't have a Joystick I'll pass on that one. :)
Even thought I own IL2-1946 on steam, the first verion on CD and played the game on and off since it's first release it never got me hooked enough to buy a Joystick... probably because I don't have one.

I'm simply not so much into flying.

True that, I've never bought IL2 as I've never had a joystick and I've never bought a joystick as I don't have a game(s) that needs one.

Ain't played a flight sim since my Amiga days.

:) Shame on you both :)
No but really obviously its more of a commitment than RO and a decent Joystick is must, altho Battle Of Britain's attention to details, accuracy and realism is amazing, these two games will complement each other so nicely next year.

I'm playing ArmA2. ;)
Play that in a decent MilSim squad and you learn nice stuff like triangulation, phonetic alphabet, radio communication and many more.

If that isn't a commitment then I don't know what actually is. :D

SoW is as realistic as it gets, probably DCS BlackShark also.

Phonetic alphabet? You mean NATO phonetic alphabet?
Also, don't talk about triangulation or anything like that. It was ****ing horrible in the army ._.

After reading your list, is it just me or does 2011 have like twice as many awesome games as 2010? Or maybe it's that many good games came out in early 2010 instead of late 2010 and I just don't remember them as much..
