Re: Any Gamers Here?

I've never been a gamer, but I am downloading the prerelease demo for Flightsimulator X right now.

From the looks of some of these posts I can see my self getting sucked in to it.

Re: Any Gamers Here?

I still think that the benchmark for all flight sims is IL2 Sturmovik and its expansion packs (including Pacific Fighters) .

Re: Any Gamers Here?

It is from Microsoft, SkyBuffalo...but it's a continuation of their civil flight simulator series...The last one being FlightSim 2004

Totally agree with you, but what about the rest of the war?? That my friend is the reason I like Battleground Europe (aka WWII online). I can tank, tow ATGs, play inf, etc... I enjoy flying fighters, however my heart is with the bombers

Nothing beats bombing a tank, knowing that a HUMAN BEING is driving it or shooting down a fighter flown by a fellow gamer....

Tyler, the fact is practically nobody's computer can really satisfactorily handle it yet..I think Microsoft blew it by releasing it too soon and turned a lot of people off..You may just end up buying it all over again..
