    "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    I think people with a similar spec to mine would be better off with the 2004 version, its graphics may be out of date but it will look better than this with this quite of PC spec!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!

    256mb of ram? my cell phone has more inside. Please, before you gripe about something, you should at least have sufficient juice to step up and play.

    Well, this is totally true. It would be nice if it could run on a slower computer. I used to have a decently fast computer when I was using it last. I had RAM and Video card upgrades. It's not a huge upgrade but It let MFSX work at a decent speed. When I turned hard it did get a little choppy though. I think Microsoft was designing a game with more performance then speed. If you look at MFSX on the best computers with directX 10, you can see it looks almost exactly the same as real life.

    Your computer is slow. You must not take it out on this site because of microsofts mistake. FSX is a great program, possibly the best on the market. Please get a new computer before giving this a low mark!
