Only way to find Accelleration is in FSX Gold?

Postby Usagi » Sat Oct 23, 2010 8:14 am

Hello,

I'm back after a 2 year hiatus, and i waqs looking at buying the Acceleration expansion for FSX. The only problem is, i can't find it outside of the FSX Gold package. Is there any store that anyone knows of that still has JUST the expansion pack? I already have FSX Deluxe, so i DON't want to have to pay for it again.

Thanks all,
-Aaron

Anymore I think its luck if you come across it on a shelf.
There's lots of places online to buy it.
Here's just one of them.

If Amazon is anything to go by it's cheaper to buy FSX Gold.

That is a bit of a mystery, isn't it.   ;)

If you currently have FSX with SP1 and/or SP2 and want to add Acceleration, you can avoid many pitfalls, install/uninstall-wise, by buying FSX Gold and putting the other on the shelf.

Actually I never knew there was a difference in the install/unistall method between the two. Doesn't Gold just include the Acceleration disc? FSX Deluxe includes SP 2 anyway. Other than prices I thought there wasn't much difference.
