More proof of how niche, and how little interest there is in BOP

I don't see why most people who own an xbox or ps3 and have access to the internet wouldn't know about it, since theres a very prominent demo on the Playstation store, and I imagine the same on xbox. I think that most people who are interested in games that feature 'flying around and shooting things' would be impressed with the il-2 demo, whether they prefer the arcade or sim style.

I don't see how that poll on gamefaqs proves anything though.

That's exactly it, the poll doesn't prove anything except revealing games that are already said to be long awaited and popular. The poll means absolutely nothing.

I notice the trailer on Youtube has over 150 000 views. That's not even the officially hosted version.
Battlefield trailer has about 200 000 views and has sold over 1 million copies.

Okay, I think this thread has run its course. It doesn't prove anything and doesn't contribute to discussions or BoP.

We already know IL2 is a VERY niche genre. I think everyone here is aware it won't beat other games like HALO, FPS's, and other popular console titles.
