Just got a email offering a preorder of FSX

http://www.simshack.net/product_info.php?currency=USD&products_id=73&osCsid=5e44...

So I thought I would check it out.

$91.08 ! wonder if that comes with free shipping?

That seems awefull steep for some shaded rivits and shiny aircraft.
But some of the new features sound cool but it concerns me the term "Mission Based GAMEPLAY", this is suppose to be a sim, whats with the word "gameplay" Grin

That seems a bit steep for the standard version.....considering Amazon are selling the Deluxe one for £44.99

Since M(qualcosa)s have not yet released FSX there isn't an official price. So, if I were you I would steer clear of any "pre-order" deals. I have notices about 3 so far. Includung Amazon. All the prices are different. If you really want to "pre-order" do it directly from M(qualcosa)s.

I'll just get the strategy guide, read it a few times, then after I'm all hyped up about getting the game, I'll buy the game Tongue

I doubt I'll have enough computer to play the game when it first comes out
