That sounds about right, however, we have to tend with the rip off factor here in Europe. Lets take a middle figure and say  $55 for FSX. This is about 45 Euros. This would make FSX far too cheap for us, so we would be paying about 55 Euros, which is about $66. Even FS2004 get the treatment. Amazon US sells FS9 for $29.99 or 24 Euros. Amazon Germany sells FS9 for 39.99 Euros or $48. I have also seen FS9 for 50 Euros or $60. Even Fs2002 is still top dollar here, I bet in the US it is at the bottom of the bargin  bucket

No use trying to guess how much it will cost, only time will tell.


....And i'm sure most of us will buy it no matter what the price is

The DVD player is already becoming a stock item for most computers. My computer came with a stock DVD drive that can play and burn both CDs and DVDs. I remember back in my young years [when I first used a computer] that USB ports were a rarity for computers. Now, we use them for almost anything. You can even power an iron with the USB port.

Anyways, I say [with hands down] that the price will be about $70. As Essel had said, we will buy the sim regardless of the price. It's what we simers do.

You're right. I'm sure we would find a way to sell our souls if we had to

You can bet your boots that Microsoft are looking at threads like this and saying to themselves....
"Hey Lads, It looks like those suckers out there are willing to pay $100+ for their favourite Flight Sim, so how about that's what we will charge them...all those in favour?..."... ...!

You bet......!

Paul... 8)...!

To be fair, they've given all of us enough time to save up for it by the looks of things, even if it does cost $100 or £49.99 or whatever.

Well just bringing up the question that I use all the time, "What if". I really also, hope they do not they charge the new sim for alot. I hope it's around 60$-70$ too.

True 'dat, my nizzle, true 'dat!!
I want them to give me a copy for free, or better yet, pay me to bother with it...

Over here in the UK FS9 was a staggering £79.99 when it was released. I not only couldn't afford that back then, but my computer couldn't take it either.

can anyone here give me a reason y my fs9 fps and Americas army fps is really low i get about 8 to 30fps?



STATS:
nvidia geforce xfx 6600gt 256mb
1.6ghz intel pentium 4 prossesor
350 watt power supply

Noooooooooooooooooooo i knew i shoulda got a new prosseser!!!! acaully i lied its 1.7G

or go to a Market pro convention and get it for half the price of whatever it is when it gets released!

I remember getting FS9 for about 25 bucks at a convention. It was suppose to be $49.99!

Haha, here in Australia a NEW, top quality game often retails for $99.99+ !!! .

I'm pretty sure you can expect a relatively predictable price.




A.

There are two schools of thought for pricing something like a flightsim-- or just about anything of similar construction: at what price the market will bear and at what price that generates the best response.  Porno is priced much higher than it costs to produce it because people will buy it. "As seen on TV" stuff is priced for the best response (while still turning a handsome profit) because the producer wants to sell an s-pot full of them while the interest is high, before the next greatest thing ever to hit the market hits the market. I will risk it all and say that M-soft will price at what the market will bear because the next iteration of the sim won't be out for a few years and we are all waiting with crumpled-up $20s in our sweaty little hands, ready to rush the ramparts as soon as FSXXVII hits the shelves.

Many of us, when FS9 first came out, are fed up with having to swap four different discs just for installation. And those who got fed up demanded the use of DVDs instead of regular and obsolete CDs.
