Flight Simulator X - Deluxe

"Pros It is of course nicer than Flight Simulator 2000, the I-71 exits on and off ramps are laid out just as they are which I think is neat and the plane selection is very good. Cons What I am a little unhappy about is I went to the store and looked at a box before I bought my new Dell computer in late Feb. I knew I was going to upgrade Vista, for Vista the box says minimum 512 MB RAM, 1.0 GHz processor,32 MB ..." Read Full Review »

Very Realistic, immense graphics, and absolutely the best flight sim to date. I've played sim's since I was a little kid, and i'm also a real-world pilot, and this is by far the best flight sim yet.
