    Looks pretty cool. Imagine playing that on a 42" TV with surround sound. Buy yourself a stripy sleeved jacket and pretend your a pilot :lol:

    Almost like the real thing

    I sometimes plug in my laptop with a HDMI cable into my 32" TV. It looks pretty nice, tbh ^_^

    Flight Simulator X marks the tenth version of the popular line of flight simulators. It was officially released to the US market on October 17, 2006. According to Microsoft's Web site for the game, a standard edition features everything from navaids to GPS and airways. It also includes 18 planes, 28 detailed cities, and over 24,000 airports with a deluxe version featuring 24 aircraft, and 38 cities.

    Flight Simulator X was officially unveiled at the 2006 International Consumer Electronics Show (CES) as a gaming showcase for Microsoft Windows Vista and is now also compatible with Windows 7. Microsoft released screenshots as well as a list of frequently asked questions as a press release on Microsoft Flight Simulator Insider, and numerous flight simulator communities. This also included mission-based gameplay with mission specific aircraft as well as an upgraded rendering engine capable of increased detail. Following the Electronic Entertainment Expo (E3) in May 2006, Microsoft published new screenshots, videos and an official trailer. The overall reaction by the community was quite positive,[citation needed] and the graphical quality of the simulator has greatly increased.

    Flight Simulator X has a required system rating of 3 for Windows Vista and a recommended rating of 5.

    Well it seems that this is way of apologising. Considering I wasn't directly affected by the hack, I'll accept it. Although the free games they're offering are pretty old, they're still free. I never bought LittleBigPlanet but it got fantastic reviews so I may check it out
