There are some Western third party companies out there that haven't completely given up on the PSP. Then again, technically, publisher 1C Company is Eastern European -- not quite west enough. We kid, we kid. The publisher is set to bring IL-2 Sturmovik: Birds of Prey to the PSP (developed by Dynamicsystems) and to the PS3 (Gaijin Entertainment). The game is a flight sim set in vintage WWII times.

The game lets players become a pilot fighting in five major historical aerial battles: Battle of Britain, Stalingrad, Berlin, Sicily and Korsun. An exact release date was not stated, but the game is currently slated for a 2008-2009 release window.

If it can live up to the quality of Ace Combat X on the PSP, then it will rock. PSP definitely needs more good flight games.

Hmm.. would like to see more games from Japanese developers. Those creative guys are the ones who know how to make video games.
