Shocked

We should give this video to Microsoft and lock their programmers into a room until they can match it.  Granted, we would probably have to link all SimV members computers together to be able to run it and take turns using it. Cheesy

I have a feeling a simulator of that quality would make a Geforce GTX 580 or a Radeon 5970 cry

Mine does that with FSX... That would be more like 1 FPY (one frame per year)

I am going to go cry because this is quite simply put, a marvel of computer engineering.  Cry

I went outside once. The graphics weren't all that great.

Burn the land and boil the sea, you can't take the sky from me.

Just wait though.  Look how far flight sim and computer gaming have come in 20 years, and imagine where it will be in another 10-20.

Goodly afternoon all... Smiley

Really don't think something like that is that far down the road for the home computer or those that can afford it.

Remember the difference between men and boys is the price of their toys... Grin
