Looks like another great game from Astraware! Anyone tried it yet? What's it like?

I tried the demo and liked it, pretty cool. Vertical is limited to takeoff and landing, so the object is don't touch anything while flying. You can't fly over buildings, trees, tanks, etc. without taking damage. I'm curious too if in some missions you go head to head with other 'copters?
I've got something else I'm playing now, so I think I'll wait to see if shows up on Handango so I can use a subscriber discount. Looks like Astraware has some other cool games. Just curious, Jason, any chance in the future of a subscriber discount with them?

I dont touch these games becuase I have a tendency to mash the buttons to hard while playing, looks nice though.

That's something I worry about too. So far, no problems though. Looks like this could be one of those "mash the button" kind of games.

I just paid for it, its pretty good.
Lots of missions, and yes you go head-to-head with other copters in the game.
Setting the button mapping on an A716 is a real pain hit-or-miss affair though....
