There was this great YouTube video on Ace Combat Series. How they optimised for the feel instead of being a realistic fighter.

The feel of being a badass pilot, the hero that saves the day, to feel cool whilst flying and dogfighting.

I do wonder what some software would look like if they optimised for some feel angle. Better or worse? Would it even be feasible given the global nature of software usage and the requirement of targeting the lowest common denominator.
