Yup, IL2 engine, and the game was not developed by Oleg. I'm hoping Oleg did get a good fee for his engine though.

If they do, they should be paid for it. And it would be fantastic, I'd buy it. But, on the other side... I hope not. Because that would mean 1C is not going to release SoW anytime soon, since they would be selling competing products in a very limited niche market. That BoP may be for PC also disturbs me quite a bit... even if it's not SoW/Maddox related. Because, why should 1C release a BoB sim product if they really think SoW is waiting in line for them to distribute?

That's all true
Still, it would be pretty cool and I'd still pay for it. Even if the possible competition between Gaijin and Maddox is a matter of concern (purely hypothetical speak here since we don't even know what Gaijin plans for the PC market), it would be a SHAME not to stretch the engine of our IL2 and let it die when it has been clearly shown to us the possible extents of its capabilities.

folks, why rain on the console people's parade ?
they are getting a great new sim for their platform, and all *the usual suspects* here seem to do is post snide remarks and trying to make the newcomers feel unwelcome. the console users are getting il2/BoB on their 50' living room plasma's long before the rest of the pc crowd gets a sniff of it on their puny desktop monitors, and we are still living on promises and good faith (which is starting to run thin). have a look at something like this on your hidef plasma, http://screenshots.teamxbox.com/scre...Birds-of-Prey/ , add some hotas (yes they exist for consoles) and there will be many new happy bunnies flying the friendly skies. btw the console version also has a specific release date, good luck to them !

guys , they said in the previews that it would have joystic support
so chances are we can use our x52's from ace combat aswell as what ever they plan to package with the game stop being such negative nancys about a console game its not like oleg is going to stop work on BOB becaus of it.... (even though this new console game will sell fuckloads of copies)
