"I've got to talk about this since there's not a lot happening on the PC front at the moment."
doesnt that tell you something? microsoft have dissolved their flight sim team, you're looking well into next year for the next generation of Il-2, and how much will you need to spend to be able to play that to its full potential? Birds of Prey may not end up being a true "simulator" but it will be no less of a game than any PC based title. and dont forget that even the PC's sims could be scaled back to nothing more than arcade flyers, so its not mutually exclusive. i still play 1946, BoB2: WofV, heck even EAW on my PC, and if BoP can match those then whats the problem?
get off your fanboy horse and be thankful that someone is finally willing to make a genuine attempt at making a mass market game that is more than a WWII Ace Combat.
and dont forget - at the end of the day it is a GAME.
