Secret Demos Over Normandy

Well, demo. Learn to fly!

LucasArts' Totally Games-developed dogfight-'em-up Secret Weapons Over Normandy recently went gold, and should be out on multiple formats next Friday, November 28th. In the meantime, LucasArts has released a 160MB demo of the game to try and convince people it's not all about polishing propellers and admiring dials. Indeed, the missions in the demo should give some idea that it's not, with tutorials focusing on just the Orientation and Bombing side of the pilot's Hawker Hurricane before players are led through the first mission of the Dunkirk campaign. You can check the demo out for yourselves here and here amongst other places.
