I wasn't referring to Cav. I was referring to the masses of people on boards and web pages who bash FSX for being hard on thier systems. When they are trying to play a 2006 game on a 2002 system. Way to misunderstand my post then make a post to "set me straight". :aok I was replying to Ghosth. He said he didn't install FSX because of what others were saying about the game being hard on systems. Where in my post did I imply that everyone who doesn't like the game is an idiot?? Damn some of you guys need help. You read between the lines..to the point you see things that arnt even there.

FSX is the best update to the series yet! I never noticed with other versions that the highways have cars and trucks running on them! Weather systems are the most amzing thing Ive ever seen but there is much more than that to FSX. I like air combat myself but Microsoft deserves credit for keeping this flight sim thing going. You really should check out shockwave productions though. They have a B29 that actually carries a nuke too. I like all of their work and the way the airplanes are researched for flight sim. Every cockpit is as detailed as they can make them and as close to reality as research makes possible.
If you like the Sick Puppy Custom Sound Pack the please consider contributing for future updates by sending a months dues to Hitech Creations for account "Chalenge." Every little bit helps.

Anyways, I bought the stupid thing for $69.99...All tags are still on the game...Game hasn't ever been played, and has all the original product crap it came with....

Instead of taking a total burn of $70 bucks, im trying to save some face here, and I'd be willing to sell it to anyone who wants it for $45, and I will include shipping.......

Please PM me if you want it.


Seems as though hubsonfire is having a little difficulty following the thread himself. :rofl If you notice in the second sentence of his post, "First, my computer is a CD rom, and isn't capable of reading the DVD rom needed with MSFS X Deluxe Edition....Okay fine, I thought." (figured i'd help you a little)  It's just not a DVD drive, he has a drive.  Try to keep up next time, okay? :aok

I dont have FSX yet .. on my list of 'things to do' .. way down on the list.

I really enjoy flyin point-to-point in Shockwave's Mustang tho. Also get a kick outta the B-58 Hustler, the SR-71, the awesome F-14 .. even the Connie :) Add-ons *rock*

Try gettin the B-36 off the ground on a hot day from LAX :)

The research they did in flight dynamics that plugs into FS9 just makes it fun .. even shootin touch an goes in a 15 knot xwind in the Stang is fun.

I also fly from tower view to brush up on R/C flyin skills .. and flyin some of the canned missions can be *quite* a challenge .. the Tri-Motor runs are purty cool :)

I like the fact that you can fly to an airport and see where the fuel pits are, which freq's the airport is on, download Jeppeson weather updates to fly in, do X-country or round the world (did a round the world in the Beech Baron .. tried it in the C-47 but ran outta gas over Russia -poor scheduling on my part ;)

Most people seem to do that in AH, then they get startled when someone tries to fight them.
