Except you can play Half Life without a keyboard, I've played it on the 360. You can also plug in a 360 controller to the PC and use that as well, if I'm correct.
The one reason I bought 1946 in the first place was because of the damage model, it looked very realistic to me. I hadn't really seen that kind of attention to detail in a damage model before. Then, I got the demo, played it with a keyboard and (even though I sucked at it) still loved it. So I bought it.
Before that time, I wasn't really into flight sims and so I hadn't considered purchasing the joystick, and even now I don't play 1946 or BoP seriously, so I don't think the investment will pay off.
Also, I can still manage to shoot down many planes without a joystick. It's harder for sure, but it's definitely possible with a little practice.
