Which brings me to my point; Il2 - BoP may not be your miraculous cross over from PC to console but it does offer a thrilling flight experience, unrivaled on gaming consoles. Sure, not starting off at the airfield, no remapping of controls, touchy controls and lack of crucial virtual cockpits are issues but it's not enough to write the game off. The devs have done a fantastic job and we should be grateful and hopeful that we may get more and more flight sims on consoles - especially as PC flight sims are almost extinct.

I am having a great time and can't get enough. I'm also extremely impressed with the skills of some online pilots.

I do wish for more immersion, replays, etc. but perhaps that will come in time. For now it's a welcome change to FPS'ers and car racing.

Add me as a friend and we'll go at it again. Although my dogfighting skills leave a lot to be desired - very rusty, very rusty.

Thanks for the thumbs up fellas
