- FLIGHT SIMULATOR X
I am very disappointed with Microsoft - I loaded the Flight Simulator and the programme crashed and told me to re-install it.
When I tried, I continuously got an error message concerning msi installer that was present on the ROM.
I contacted Microsoft support and they eventually said they would investigate furthur - that was over 10 days ago and I have not heard a thing since.
If you can help me with this, I would appreciate it.

- Great for preparing to fly for real.
I was getting ready to start ground and flight school and this came recommended by a pilot I knew. I started working through the student pilot lessons and learned so much. I think this is a great way to begin your flight training and get places you've never been before.

Rating:

- Good...
Pros:Great graphics
Cons:Memory Usage is high,Disk space is big
This game is very good,but is good only if you have a gaming computer.

- Needs a fast computer, but overall a great Flight Simulator
I recently purchased Flight Simulator X Deluxe, and I am pleasantly surprised by it. I think it is an overall good update to the Flight Simulator series, and its performance is actually not bad on my PC. One downside is that you need to download and install service pack 1 for best performance, since the service pack includes improvements to make it perform better.

Detail is excellent in this game. Aircraft, scenery, and weather look great. For the past several versions of Flight Simulator, I have been impressed at the detail. The airplanes, for example: Animated moving parts such as landing gear, rudder, and flaps; realistic aircraft shadows, aircraft windows letting you see interior detail, realistic-looking propellers that actually look like spinning propellers. Also, the scenery is good: Flight Simulator X can dynamically generate other aircraft, ships on the water, cars on the ground, etc.. Land textures look good, and although there are trees that add a bit of realism, the trees look 2-dimensional up close. Also, as others have noted, detail is great in big cities but a little bland and sparse in the country.

As far as flight control, airplanes are fairly easy to control. Engine speed, flaps, and controlling the airplane are all at you fingertips. Aircraft cockpits are fairly well detailed, giving you views of all the important gauges. Flight Simulator X also has a "virtual cockpit" view mode, which looks a little bit more like you're actually in the cockpit - more view out the window, but a little bit less view of the cockpit gauges and controls. One of my favorite view modes in Flight Simulator has always been its Spot view, letting you view the aircraft from the outside from various angles. Flight Simulator X lets you rotate the view all around the aircraft from front to back; however, I'm not sure if you can zoom in and out (that would be a nice feature).

On the performance note, I have to set the detail 1 or 2 notches below the maximum in order to get smooth frame rates, but it still looks very good. That was surprising to me - In the past, I have been used to Flight Simulator running fairly slow with high detail settings. My PC currently has an Athlon 64 X2 4800+ processor, an Nvidia GeForce 7600GS 256mb PCI-Express video card, and 2gb RAM. I use a screen resolution of 1680x1050. Flight Simulator X also runs similarly well on my laptop (Intel Centrino dual-core 2.0ghz, GeForce 7600 256mb, 2gb RAM). On my laptop, I use a screen resolution of 1440x900, which is the laptop screen's native resolution.

Overall, Flight Simulator X is a nice game and would be enjoyable for professional pilots and enthusiasts alike. If you like R/C planes, you should enjoy this game.

- Pretty great, funky bugs, but worthwhile.
I was one of the people that had the dreaded error 1935 on the install [this is due to MSXML SP2 being funky, especially on Windows Vista, untested on XP]. You might have to google around to find the solution, there's many different ones that work for different people.

But as far as other reviewers have said, you don't need a $3000 comp to play this game. Prices on PC's, vidcards, etc. have dropped so much. I have a $1200 HP machine with an Intel 6550 dual core processor, widescreen monitor [I play this game at 1280x720 widescreen res, 32 bit] and everything at ultra-high with my GeForce 8500GT 512 MB [they cost less than $100 these days, go with an 8800 if you can, they're heaps better even with less memory], and I get over 30 FPS. You don't need 70 FPS to play games, that's crazy.

The motion picture [movies that you'd watch on a DVD/VHS] runs at 29.97 FPS [25.something for PAL]. The human eye, AT MOST, can see 60 FPS, but 30 is suitable for normal vision [60 is a softened moving image, looks great though]. This game is really fun, and worth getting. I need to get FSX Acceleration, and I need to install SP2 [which promises DX10 detail levels]. I'm looking forward to all of the amazing features, and this game is VERY deep. I'm looking forward to the multiplayer, in which you can be an air traffic controller [deluxe only! and all the extra planes and missions are in the deluxe, don't bother with standard edition].

If you have the extra dinero, you might want to get X-Plane instead [it's about $80, but the FAA has approved it for pilot's training, so that's the REAL DEAL, it also requires a whopping 70 GB HD space]. But for quick fun, I think this is the way to go.

NOTE: You will need 16 GB of HD space to play this, and apparently 30 GB if you install SP2 for the directx 10 graphics.
