    "WOULD BE GOOD IF THE SYSTEM REQUIREMENTS WERE TRUE!"

    by Random2 on September 9, 2007

    Cons: Ok, my system isn't the greatest in the world but at least it exceeded the minimum requirements (1.3GHz,256mb,ati radeon 9550) but these were not good enough. For some reason the min resoulution is 1024x768 when many games offer 800x600 or even 640x480. GT legends offer 300x240 resoulutions too!

    I turned everything down to minimum, during this I found the interface very slow. It took 20 minutes to load the mission first time round and at best I got 4 FPS.

    The controls didn't seem to work and the plane kept crashing!

    I think people with a similar spec to mine would be better off with the 2004 version, its graphics may be out of date but it will look better than this with this quite of PC spec! Alternativly, if you like flying planes, helicopters etc: BUY GTA SAN ANDREAS!

    "Excellent"

    by halo_freak03 on August 15, 2006

    Pros: There's a noticable graphical improvment, and it's realism is far more well, er realistic then its predecessors. It's very fun, and it's only a pre-release demo to begin with!

    Cons: The graphics somewhat disappoint me. There nice, of course, but not what I was expecting. Right now, the problem is:What is so great about this game that seperates ir from FS 2004 or X_Plane or any other flight sim? The Flight Simulator is my favorite flight sim though, because of the accuracy of realism and physics put into the planes. X, unlike 2000 was geared towards graphics and fun gaming.

    "You'll like it if you like planes"

    by hayesb69 on September 28, 2006

    Pros: Graphics are good and it gives you a chance to fly a plane.

    Cons: Must have a good video card I have a 128MB NVidia 5200 and it really put it to work. I didn't like the feel of the controls. Takes forever for the game to install and uninstall.
