Hi Skoshi,
I don't think we can dismiss WoP as just a console game. I'd classify it as a light sim at the moment and I think it's setting high expectations for other sims in areas like landscape and smooth performance on mid range machines.
WoP may be making flight sims more accessible to new comers but that doesn't mean that's it's only target audience. Based on the discussions on this and other flight sim forums it's clear that the same crowd is attracted to both so it's natural to expect comparisons between the two.
cheers!
