Don't you feel ripped off as a console gamer?

Ah right, so BoP was never meant to try & mimmick a fantasic experience as 2001's IL-2 STURMOVIK! I get it now! The name kinda suggests to me that it's going to be a slight representation of the series ... IL-2 STURMOVIK: BIRDS OF PREY. (Bit of a hint in the title

Hey I'm all for the arcade mode to attract different ppl, I was led into thinking that I was to be catered for also!!!

I bought this title on multi platforms because I was told by the devs in its build up that I, the so-called PC SIM hardcore would be more than at home & that it was a faithful console experience worthy of the series so if you're sick of the whining Inf States, stop reading this thread!!!!
It's an Il-2 with most of the cockpits missing, a belly achingly laughable bomber experience straight out of Blazing Angels; it's an IL-2 where t/o & landing is seen as UNIMPORTANT, where a simple skirmish modes omit next to any form of diversity, a game that fails on every level other than looks IMO.
And back to the point of the post & just like OFP: Dragon Rising released this week, if there was a PC version of BoP, you wouldn't atall bet against it having most of the above criteria.
The point of the post, OFPragon Rising ships to all 3 major platforms & unlike the last gen offering, guess what? the console version is stripped of any form of replayability & is blessed with a price ticket more than double the price in places!!!
