The IL-2 Sturmovik series, which has been treated very well on the PC, is now coming out to console platforms, starting with a demo released on Xbox LIVE. Expect the full version to be out towards the middle of September.
"This is an exciting week because of all the new Dashboard preview but there’s more new items to take a look at on LIVE. The Xbox Summer of Arcades continues for the second week with Marvel VS. Capcom 2 along with some rocking new Rock Band tracks, the Far Cry Fortunes Pack Deal of the Week, Gears of War 2 map packs and more."

Packshots for each version of the game are on the respective profiles below, as well, if you care to take a week. Looking mighty nice!
"505 Games has today announced that Jeremy Soule (known for his works in KOTOR, Oblivion) and Joss Ackland (Lethal Weapon 2) will perform the audio for IL-2 Sturmovik: Birds of Prey, by 1C Publishing.

There is no word on support for the Ace Combat 6 control stick.
