Thank you for bringing IL2 to consoles!

The console gamer cannot find a decent flight game if his life depended on it!

But now we get the best one in history!

Many people are excited about this new project and hope that the realism and immersion will be just as good on the console!

thank you 1C !!!

The console gamer will still need to buy a PC to have a decent flight simulator.

This thing is just a stunning looking arcade. Like most console stuff.

It would be something to see on a 60" LCD if there was a flight stick available for it but I wouldn't consider it if TIR is not compatible.

Wrong. "Birds of Prey includes a simulation mode that is no different than the most strict simulation mode of the original PC title."

There's also similar statements on other sites, IGN for one.

Anyways, I liked the game on PC, and I'm looking forward to the 360 version!

What is expected release date?

IL-2 Sturmovik: Birds of Prey should be landing on your Xbox 360 in early 2009.

(edit I'll answer my own question)

And they're making it also for the Nintendo DS. Oh, yeah, they sure will implement CEM and all... I'm longing to plug my pedals and TIR to the DS...

Seriously, apart from more realistic physics and a just-cockpit-view mode, that seems to be all the 'seriousness' implied. Which is great, really, compared to the common bang-bang thing we usually have in consoles.
