If they ever made a The Sims style game based in Sheffield I'd possibly buy it, if it was released on Xbox or Xbox 360, I pretty much gave up on PC gaming apart from The Movies a long time ago due to compatibility issues with Windows XP.

I've got Flight 2004!

You can download extra scenery files from a number of websites all are free downloads aswell.

I've just looked at that link and am now going to download the stuff as I've not seen it before.

Looks like that guy has been busy.

It is also relatively easy for you to create your own scenery.

All the tools to create scenery are free to download.

So i Did, Ive created Tinsley viaduct and the cooling towers.

How F**Kin cool is that.

Its even easier now to position your own scenery as I use Google earth to get the exact Longitude and Latitude and elevations.

I have to agree as a lapsed flight simmer that must be satisfying.




now Dial (0)20 7499-9000 and ask for the FBI.

Phanny I think you have dropped too much acid and have become paraniod.

I would love to be bundled away by the FBI to an illegal holding facility in Cuba.

The compensation for wrongful arrest would really help me out, I would possibly never have to work again in my life.

So Phanny pick up that phone and dial pal.

Just Kidding. WIth your username and prediliction for flight sims, it was irresistible.

Seriously though, if you enjoy flight sims, take a look at Aces High - the flight simmers combat sim. You can fly dozens of WWII period aircraft in a furious combat environment. The flight and projectile modelling is second to none, and you can really feel the difference between MkV and MkIX Spitfires, the FW190-A and the D; there are also tanks, jeeps and ostwind mobile AAs to mess about in.

I used to fly FS2000 but the lack of firepower proved ultimately frustrating.

The only drawback with these add-ons is that although they look good, they look out of place just plonked on flat terrain. If you take off from Sheffield airport there's no hill at the side.

? the games are too reliable for you, you'd rather fight them like with previous windoze version?
