Flight Simulator X is OUT?!
« on: Friday, October 20, 2006, 03:36:16 AM »
8.4 from Gspot

For some reason I thought it was coming in December. Anyway I can't wait to pick this up. It is supposed to be the next best thing since sliced bread, but the big big issue is it needs a killer system.

It's been floating around the torrents for a couple of weeks now.. It's an 8 GB download! So I imagine it's a DVD9 or two DVD5's.

I never really liked the Flight Simulator series.. I always thought they were kinda boring.. They're not "games" really, they're just simulators (as the obvious name suggests). I remember when I used to be excited about aeroplanes and jets, Flight Simulator used to be pretty cool.. but 1996 was a long time ago.

It isn't really a game, and if you think of it as such then yea it is pretty boring I guess. But I love flight sims. :P

I played one of the old Flight Simulators.  I took off and flew to another city and landed at that airport.  I was so proud.  Then nothing happened.  Then I uninstalled the game, thinking it pretty damn lame.
