It’s the counter-transaction to what many of us did: “pre-buy”.
Preorder is the accepted term, yes, but if you want to know why they used that one because internet.
Wasn’t the name “Flaming Cliffs” originally some sort of direct translation of some Russian term/title…?
Loosely translated -
Best things come in time. Best things also come with swing wings, bomb bay, mach2.0 capability and Pave tac!
If I remember correctly, the initial translation was “Hot Cliffs”. It was than changed to something only slightly less goofy.
Hot Rocks.
That’s what we call the reactors on a ship.
Right, that was it! Good THAT was binned. But I am still bewildered how Flaming Cliffs got through
I think we should go with Hot Rocks from here forward.
Hot cliffs sounds really awesome though

Games that have the word “Flaming” in the title sells 15% more in mid-late stages of life and more in the bargain bin.
Is that like the trend in the last decade of throwing “Extreme” onto the front or back of any product?
Extreme Kleenex
Preparation-H Extreme
Charmin X-Treme
Here’s my take on the Harrier although I might mixed up the games
0:00 - STO
2:20 - approach and VL
4:35 - John Farley style VTO
5:35 - high speed pass and break using VIFF
7:20 - 2nd approach and VL
9:45 - replay from external camera view
Dunno, combining “Extreme Flaming” does actually remind me of Eagle Dynamics forums…
Expecially the Italian one
If they’d picked Hot Rocks then Mick, Richard, and the rest of the gang would’ve sued them for using their term.
