I love my FS 2004 to bits....
....
....after all, it has kept me sane and trouble-free since 2003!...
..!
..the thing is, with my present, super gaming computer....
...., I can ratchet all the settings up to Max, I can now enjoy the various benefits of running my copy of FSX!
...and I can still use all my favourite FS 2004 Aircraft, and FS 2004 add-on Scenery, in it!
Best of both Worlds!
The one thing that FSX brings alive, for me, is the AI traffic....both in the air, on the ground, and in the water!....
...!
A trip along Interstate 5 from LA to Washington State, using "Ultimate Terrain USA", "ORBX FTX Global", etc, with all the road traffic below me, always keeps me company, and adds the realism to the scenery!
I love exploring the scenery with the help of "FS Tramp (FS Navigator)" and "Plan-G" sat nav maps.
FSX is a nice step-up to FS 2004 if you have a super-fandango i7 Processor to handle the increased strain!
I run FSX daily, and FS 2004 (FS 2002...FS'98....
....) now and again, for a spot of nostalgia...
...!
...in between cooking my daily Dinner, mowing my grass, and Motorcycling all around the World...
...!
Never a dull moment...
