    I had ms flight sim 2002 years back and enjoyed it but lost it somewhere. I was looking forward to the release of flight this month but delays again I think. I will wait no longer. Any suggestions for an alternative ? I have my pc and force feedback joystick ready for christmas !!

    Was delayed? I was barely aware that it was showing screenshots and gaffing about how amazing it would be...

    you have the kit, so get fsx, its cheap now, and frankly, pretty great.

    Methinks flight will be a let down anyway, a gorgeous, graphically rich, let down... What they've said so far doesn't afford confidence. If you sit around and wait for something supposedly awesome, its never going to come, or be good enough.

    Where around Dublin would I pick up a copy of FSX ? I tried 2 branches of gamestop, Henry St and Omni in Santry and no joy. Any ideas ?
