Now that Ive played it, heres what I think:

AMAZING!  Barring the performance problems (I have to set it kinda low to get reasonable frames), it is amazing.  Amazing amazing amazing.  It will take getting used to, but it is nice.  It looks SOOOOOOO amazing, and even tho I mentioned performance issues, it runs smoothly.  The sounds are good except they seem too quiet in the external views.  I still have to figure everything out, but so far its amazing.

Oh, and flour bombing is F U N FUN!

The only thing that limits you in FSX is your hardware... 


those who run SLI or crossfire with high end cards will get a better show.


When DX10 arrives... look out, because that is when FSX will come alive

As far as performance goes, I had to make some sacrifices.  I dont see the same level of detail as Im used to, but its still amazing and better than FS9.  Im averaging between 15 and 20 in FSX, and its good enough for me
