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.

Almost as good as that 3D Mark Benchmark Test.

Is this coming to pc too? Or where do those 1280x800 screens with incredible AA come from?
But looks awesome nonetheless.

I don't know why everybody says this looks amazing. To me it looks average compared to HAWX.

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.

Looks great, seems as though they brought the draw distance in since the last game though

Looks amazing, very nice looking clouds and for once a flight game with a good looking ground.

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.

Im already frow in trash my PC. But IL-2 Shturmovik with 11 addons, I'll keep it forever.

French release: 2009

What's up?

digi_matrix Paranormal Activity was insane, totally deserves being the most profiting indie film ever made. I saw the original version, not the theatrical one. WAY BETTER! (5 Hours ago)
SimonM7 Nope, no such prestige I'm afraid. Just 1½ year of comic making and ICQ channel community on quakenet of all places. :) 2002 doesn't sound far back but it's soon 8 years ago. Time sure does roar past. (11 Hours ago)
Megido Did you make comics and stuff for kong back in the day? The art looks similar :) (12 Hours ago)
SimonM7 Thanks a lot, it's great to hear that it's appreciated. :) (12 Hours ago)
alimokrane @SimonM7: Well keep it up mate. U certainly have what the talent ;) (13 Hours ago)
SimonM7 Thanks :D and yeah I do. M7 was originally a webcomic, and the idea now is to make it a bit of an entertainment blog in general and a webcomic. Only done two strips so far since I rebooted it in may. (13 Hours ago)
alimokrane @SimonM7: Dude That's amazing. Do u draw that stuff ?? (13 Hours ago)
