Great graphics, good soundtrack ... unlimited gun ammo makes this title a game when it was so close to be a simulation

I was trying to find a game that would be almost a perfect flight simulator... Ace Combat 6 isn't that bad but I must admit that I've found deceiving the fact that the weapons load on a given airplane was often 10x-20x more than what it should have been. Unlimited gun ammo? What is that? Only a B-52 can carry the quantity of ammunition you will find on board a F-22 in Ace Combat 6. In that regard, I'm annoyed. Yeah, it would be even tougher if I had to go back to base to reload after emptying my missiles and rockets. But that's what I was doing when I was playing Gunship on my Commodore 64, 24 years ago. When all my Hellfire were launched, and the Sidewinders and the 1200 30 mm chain-gun cannon rounds, I would go back to base, refill the pods and go back on the battlefield. Makes everything more realistic. Graphics are great, scenery, landscape...
Other than that, why are the enemies not visible when we replay a recorded flight?.. Annoying too... If you can get this title below $30, it's worth it. I wish there was two modes: arcade and real life. Then, everyone could be happy. I guess! I don't know of any combat flight sim on the Xbox 360 that is better than this. On the PC, there is Falcon 4: Allied Force, that is much more realistic. I will probably have to get that.
