Good game!........for the first few weeks, then it gets boring. There should be more planes, better scenery, and crashes

Overall, FS2004 is a good game. You can fly any where in th world, land at at any airport in the world..........but after a while, it starts to get boring. There should be more planes, the current ones are slow and boring, better scenery, the ground is flat!, and when you hit a building or the ground, you should crash, but you don't, you just go straight through it, bounce off the ground and continue flying unharmed!

On the plus side, the planes are easy enough to fly when you get used to it (apart from helicopters, they are ridiculously hard to fly). You can also go sightseeing around the world, statue of liberty, london eye, eiffel tower, etc.

Sadly, I can't get FSX because I need to upgrade my PC, but I have heard it is good, apparently it has missions to complete, unlike FS2004, and many more planes.

I really like the feature which allows you to capture photos and videos, and the many different veiws that you can play from.
