FSX could look like that if it didn't have to cover the entire globe. maybe in the future when there are HDDs capable of hundreds of terabytes will FSX be able to look like that

ANd im one of them.

But honestly, wouldnt you kill for graphics like this? The PS3 with its mighty 8 processors, (or the Ex-box with its laughable 3) can do it at 60 FPS.

Hello!

Meh, seen the videos, looks a lot like ace combat...

...which is laughable when it comes to the actual "air combat" part. Tongue

Graphics look great tho, even though the curves look a little off on the falcons.

It's not how many cores... It's how they are used! I thought the PS3 could only use 7 anyway. PS3 has a laughable 256mb RAM anyway. Xbox can get up to 490mb. Mhahawaw.

Yeh the graphics are good, I just dislike the gameplay.

I'd love this...

Although im sortof cautious about buying it because I bought ace combat 6 and I didn't really like it to many objectives in the game and a dumb story line.
Will it be like that or better? Not so many objectives and the scenery looks way cool alot better than ace combat also.

Actually, both systems are almost on par, with the PS3 having a slight lead. But, they lost that lead on the development side. the PS3 has been made hard to develop for on purpose, they admitted this in a interview on gamasutra, this has caused them to lose there 10 year goal, which might actually allow the 360 to have such a long life.

Anyway, game looks great, but not suitable for large area's as seen in FSX.

doesnt the PS3 have like 8 cores or what ever because they predict each core will only last 2 years at the most under the load, so they put more in to extend the life of the console.

This is why the originals on the PS 1, 2 were better.

It is generally inadvisable to eject directly over the area you just bombed

expect a very basic flight model in that one... most of FS calculations go to flight dynamics. Rest is IO limited

Russian planes: IL-76 (all standard length ones), Tu-154 and Il-62, Tu-134 and An-24RV&&&&AI flightplans and repaints can be found here
