Worth Taking a Look This Holiday Season

My gaming backlog is gigantic right now. The releases of new stuff for sims we play are coming at a healthy pace. Let's take a quick pick of my list of favourites. Please comment below with yours.

IL-2 Sturmovik: Cliffs of Dover Blitz

The gentlemen of Team Fusion are having their latest finest hour with the release of the Blitz edition for IL-2 Cliffs of Dover.

Bombers over London, and the valour of the pixel pilots and gunners. The thickness of the clouds ahead took me out of the battle for a while. I was blind, like swimming in cake batter.

Available at Steam. Free of charge for the owners of the original Cliffs of Dover.

Arma 3 - Tac-Ops Mission Pack (DLC)

Well, the Arma 3 developers decided to get back into war after their previous stint in ... well, I don't know what was that. Claiming a solid grasp on the peak of realistic tactical operations, Arma 3 almost gets it right this time.

I got the Base Games and some DLCs. Arma 3 not played yet. Did a lot Arma 1 inside a great community late in the previous decade. Sturmovic I just tested a long time ago with insufficient equipment.

Perhaps some Dogs could teach me how to fly like an ace in Stumovic somewhen.

Some of the guys here do have IL2 and the later iterations. There are a few of us who fly FSX/P3D regularly. We even do "Shared-cockpit". I have done this a few times with Beef. He is usually the PIC and I the FO. Very immersive and great fun
