This isn't true. To get reverse from the G27 Shifter, you put the stick in the neutral position, push down hard, and then pull it to where sixth would be. It's poorly indicated on the top of the stick.

There's a free indie game called Wing Commander Saga, built using the Freespace 2 engine. It combines the setting of the original Wing Commander games with the mechanics of Freespace 2. It's worth a play.

It really depends on what you want to do. Many (if not most) jobs and careers don't require a wide knowledge of history, or Shakespeare, or a foreign language, or complex mathematics, etc etc etc...

In reality, this happened at an airshow shortly after the plane was put into service, and was carrying...

In Bad Company 2, even Squad Deathmatch has few campers. Obviously objective modes feature it, but you'd be a rubbish defender if you didn't. Most campers are snipers (which usually annoy their own team rather than the opposition, because they barely contribute to the team's objectives) and can...

I hate to add an opinion, but seriously, this is a troll question. 45% of people are going to say 2. 45% will say 288. The remaining 10% (I think, looking at this thread, that it's roughly a correct proportion) are the ones who are seeing both points of view and why the question itself (NOT the...
