Well this actually makes me very happy and i'll tell you why.
By doing this 1c will pull in ALOT of money IL2 is known Marketed Name and will sell just cuz of the name and alos im sure it will be a great game on consoles and sell for that aspect aswell. I bet it will be very much Arcade tho since consoles dosn't benefit from 100 buttons for confiugrating everything and simulations belong to PC.
But it's still a good move now they'll pull in lots of money.. thats also great since BoB will for sure be released

.
The worst that could happen would be if BoB got announced for consoles... then it would not be a simulation anymore.
