My interpretation of 'hardware' means the controller especially. Functions that are great in 1946 like the ability to use a radio can't work out on a console controller. There just aren't enough buttons to include all the features that make 1946 a great sim. I also slightly agree with you about the publishers, though.

yeah okay thats true, but I thought BoP did a pretty good job of translating the experience to the limited inputs of a console. I guess if you really need to regulate the fuel mix you're only going to be satisfied by a PC experience, to me BoP seems to cover the bases. Also like some others I'm a Mac user for work reasons so I'm stuck with the consoles.
