The BOB SOW is an aircombat flight simulator. It is not as gamey as a game. The market for BOB SOW is very specialized.

I was talking with a friend who is a big time gamer type. He said, "It is an exceptional game that holds interest for users more than something like 8 days."

Pretty much doesn't include an IL2 user does it?

I wouldn't expect BOB SOW to be much of an excitement for the typical gamer types that attend E3. E3 is in Los Angeles this year so I'd think it would be expensive to send someone over from Moscow to demonstrate it. It would hard to demonstrate otherwise, because no one outside Moscow has a copy of it as far as I know.

Years ago, when Forgotten Battles released the guys at gamestop didn't know what it was, and EA clerks only found it because it was in their computer. Not because they had any knowledge of it. That may have all changed now, but I doubt it.
