Pondering the Imponderable -- 8:40 am CST, Update by A.T. Hun

I've spent a few moments the past couple of days trying the Battlefield 1942 demo at the recommendation of Pablo of Club Louis fame. If it were just a FPS it would be basically uninspiring. But the clincher is that you get to drive vehicles, including a tank, a half-track, a jeep, and even an airplane. Flying a plane with a mouse takes some getting used to. On the map in the demo, there's not much room to take off. Once you are airborne, I think you'd have to wait until you crash or are shot down since I don't think you could land it (at least not easily). I'll have to play some more online to get a better feel for it.
