FSX or FS9 (Read 1250 times)

If you were exiled onto a deserted island in the pacific ocean with only a computer and you could choose one FS to take with you which would you choose? (in other words, which do you favor?)

I choose FSX simply because I can get the most enjoyment out of it with the missions.

I have seen countless topics on this but no polls. With the amount of comments by both sides in this argument it is almost impossible to find which FS people seem to like more. This poll will definetly find the answer (hopefully).

There's a similar poll running in the FS2004 forum so the results will be somewhat predictable. If you really want to do this I think it would probably be better to have a single poll in a neutral part of the forum like the Computer Games & Software section. Don't be surprised if it turns nasty. Some people become highly passionate on this subject for some reason. Roll Eyes

I'll say a decent computer uhh... lets make up some stats...

1 gig RAM
nVidia GeForce 7600GS 512MB
2.50 GHz Pentium Dual Core

any thing else?
oops sorry hagar, i didn't see that one. It was posted today too, imagine the odds of that.
I posted this here because it is one of the more high traffic boards.

I think I'll wait until the DX10 cards come out before I cast my vote. Effesex "runs" on mine, but not as well as I had hoped. I prefer FS9 right now just because it's so fluid on this machine, but I am waiting on the new cards for the real story to be told...

Erm... would that make it a battery powered computer? If so then I would take FS9 everyday... If I had FSX it would take to long and the battery would run out Roll Eyes

i failed to metion that the island had its own power supply exspecially for the computer, Of course

Heretic, some ppls pcs are sooo bad you can mistake FSX for FS02. lol, i think FS02 on high would be compareable to FSX at low settings.

interesting, in the other poll FS9 is wining 24 to 9, but in this one it is almost tied.....
