Rating: - Microsoft Flight Simulator 2004
The game is comprehensive but seems to overwhelm the video card in my 2004 desk top and flat screen display. The resolution being stipulated by the game is not available. The result is that occasionally the Windows based desk top OS shuts down and restarts. I don't have that problem on my 2006 lap top.
Otherwise the game meets expectations even using the keyboard and mouse.

Having been in Naval aviation for 21 years as an structural mechanic, and now retired, I wanted to keep my hand in the game so to speak.

I belong to VATSIM and have been for more than 4 years, and even living in Monterrey Mexico there is the VATMEX club (Mexico's branch for VATSIM as there is for almost all countries) we fly almost every day (I'm pensiones and retired) and every Wedenesday we have a Regio flight with Tower Control, wel almost avery day we have air traffic control.
But Flight Simultor is our best choise as FSX is stil under constant upgrades.
I highly recomend Microsoft Flight Simulator 2004 a Century of ... Read More
Rating: - MS Flight Simulator 2004 is perfect for older PCs
I deliberately purchased FS 2004 instead of the newer version, Flight Simulator X. Why on earth would I buy an old version? Because I didn't want to have to replace my 4 year old computer with a "gaming machine". I downloaded the demo version of FS X and was very disappointed with its slow graphics and overall sluggishness, even with the refresh rate turned down. But FS 2004 works great on the PC I already have. Graphics are snappy, and I can even keep a bunch of browser sessions running in the ... Read More
Rating: - Nice Sim and loads of fun to play !
I had bought this as an upgrade to an earlier version. It is fun to play with, though quite basic compared to what is available nowadays. It does not require too much of system resources and provides hours of entertainment and some flight learning.
