You can bet your boots that Microsoft are looking at threads like this and saying to themselves....
"Hey Lads, It looks like those suckers out there are willing to pay $100+ for their favourite Flight Sim, so how about that's what we will charge them...all those in favour?..."... ...!

You bet......!

Paul... ...!

True 'dat, my nizzle, true 'dat!!
I want them to give me a copy for free, or better yet, pay me to bother with it...

The price will be whatever the marketing men will decide the market will bear .... not out here in Oz of course, if Strile Fighters Gold and BoB 2 retailing at A$89.95 is any indication!!!!
However, as this particular Wombat has no intention of being a beta tester for MS (one should never buy v.1 of ANYTHING!) the price will probably have come down in a year or so along with the usual patch or two.

Probably the 1.6 Gig processor combined with a slow front side buss. .

Unfortunately FS2004 is about WAY more than the video card.

BTW... did you mean to post this in the fs2004 forum?

Start saving up to upgrade your system

[A/SGT.Mav316]

or go to a Market pro convention and get it for half the price of whatever it is when it gets released!

I remember getting FS9 for about 25 bucks at a convention. It was suppose to be $49.99!

[Flt.Lt.Andrew]

Haha, here in Australia a NEW, top quality game often retails for $99.99+ !!! .

I'm pretty sure you can expect a relatively predictable price.

Erm i might be being realy stupid, but why do you need a DVD player for FSX? I've had my internet cut for a while so i've not had time to catch up.

There are two schools of thought for pricing something like a flightsim-- or just about anything of similar construction: at what price the market will bear and at what price that generates the best response.  Porno is priced much higher than it costs to produce it because people will buy it. "As seen on TV" stuff is priced for the best response (while still turning a handsome profit) because the producer wants to sell an s-pot full of them while the interest is high, before the next greatest thing ever to hit the market hits the market. I will risk it all and say that M-soft will price at what the market will bear because the next iteration of the sim won't be out for a few years and we are all waiting with crumpled-up $20s in our sweaty little hands, ready to rush the ramparts as soon as FSXXVII hits the shelves.

DVD has storage capacity of approx 4.7Gb versus 700Mb on a CD; ergo, FSX will come on one DVD versus 5, 6 or 7 CDs.
