Xbox 360 PS3

505 released a big batch of images from IL-2 Sturmovik: Birds of Prey, and you'll also find some older images we couldn't find back when they were released. It seems like they really put time on making the ground right, specially judging from the fifth picture.

But looks awesome nonetheless.

I’m not really into the planes of the Allies but I’m very interested in the Axis planes.
It will be my pleasure to dispose tanks with a Ju 87, down Spitfires with an Fw 190 and destroy B-17s or Lancasters with a Bf 109.
It looks really good, I hope the controls can keep up with that.

Thats the second game after tetris that Iam proud that it made in Russia. Just look at this clear sky, thats unbelievably realistic clouds, far far draw distance.
