The point is none of these sims could ever be directly ported to the consoles. It's nice that you were able to play IL-2 with an Xbox controller but you still had to use the keyboard, didn't you?

On full real in IL-2 you have control over Prop pitch, superchargers, fuel mix, radiators, trim, airbrakes, and even magnetos. Of course all these functions cannot fit on an ordinary console controller. So that means that either they wont be modeled in BoP, or they will all be automatic. Neither of which is realistic. And that's just one example of how vastly different BoP will be from IL-2.

I hate how people never consider that an in game menu would do just that. Besides prop pitch, trim, flaps, breaks, etc. Are going to be in the game; you should some of these threads before starting a pc vs. console deal.
It is very possible to put a full sim game on a console IT'S JUST BECAUSE NO ONE HAS TRIED.
Unfortunately, the PC community is a dying breed and I'm sure someone will eventually do it when they realize that.
