Postby Keep It Simple » Fri Feb 13, 2009 1:43 pm

Since it appears that FSX will be around for quite some time now, what do you think/hope future third party improvements/add-ons/hardware will accomplish with with FSX?

I think that MS knew that FSX could go the distance so I would imagine it was one of their reason for canning it for the moment which will give us, not so rich, guys a chance to catch up with the hardware. If we all had Nicks hardware right now FS Next would be still on the boards.

And I have to agree that when Nick finishes GexN Europe and its in the shops we will have a sim that really kicks a$$.   ::)  ;) I just cant wait.

Great work Nick

Many of us can't afford the hardware Nick uses to get that  performance. The focus of developers will still be on FSX as the price of this hardware gets within the range of average hobbyists like me.
