And herein lies the problem I think.

Here's a different point of veiw.
I haven't played a 'proper' flight sim since CFS2. I stopped buying PC games because of the constant upgrades needed etc.

I bought a playstaion and never looked back.
Since that day I've been waiting for a console flight sim type of game and have bought many over the years PS2 and 3 only to be dissapointed.

I saw IL-2 on the shelf on it's day of release and wondered if this may be the one.. And it is, by far the best flight'sim' game on a console that I've played.

I've played hundreds of online arcade matches and have had the more enjoyment out of this game than any other game I've played online. Bought COD6/MW2/Franchise expansion, and whilst it's a good game there is nowhere near the depth that you get in even an online IL-2 game.

I'm so bored by the 'hardcore' brigade banging on about all of the flaws and faults and technicallities...

Get yourselves into a good 5 a side arcade match kill some planes, get killed have a laugh.

To comapre the console version against the PC version is futile. Different animals, different market.

So to the people who made this I'd like to say thanks coz I've had a great time playing it. And I will continue to. To anyone who's thinking of trading in their copy of the game I would urge you to do it, it's useless just sat there, someone will pick it up cheap and play it.
