It is why console games do so well. Because the power of a console is limited in comparison to a good PC there is no point in producing large, complex maps and all the other things simers expect plus the users are quite happy with the limited input of their controllers. If it can be done on a PC people want it but they will only get it if developers get a return.

Maybe 1C will hold on to the engine for a few years and then re release. I'm talking about the original code being the starting point and further developed and polished for the Mediterranean for example. Who here wouldn't buy it?
