First of all - if it is just ported from X-Box, then it is arcade.

I'm busy with my own development that maybe in future also will be ported say on X-Box 1600 and PSP23 .
Second, compare cockpit i posted.. then imagine all things that we will have in final.
They are comparable only in the ground surface (earth, not the water, etc), but they haven't photorealistic colors (we haven't yet too, but we will have), clouds, modeling of airstreems near different surfaces and near/in/over/under clouds....

Probably I would be right, that target audience of BoP for PC would be other than SoW.
In short words BoP for PC is other niche, maybe more greater, but other.

In my opinion the relase of PC version Birds of Prey is good for my team at least with one thing: These who will play PC BoP then will be ready to move on SoW when its out. And I don't count Il-2 original series users who will play SoW 100%.
