Hey Ojaser6,

i would personally recommend Flight Simulator X. I have the game, its great fun if you have a game-pad or joystick. Not so much fun if you have a keyboard :|

Positive about Flight Sim X:

- Multilayer
- Expansion pack (FSX: Acceleration)
- Huge community
- Free Addons and as well as payware (Planes, Mission, Scenery)

However the Negatives are:

- The game cost money + expansion pack(unless you illegally download :P)
- Must have a game-pad or joystick for full simulation of the game
- Need a powerful Graphics card + CPU ( im running a 512mb Nvidia 8800, and still i don't get great frames)


Other than that FSX is great, whole new experience :)
