[zaiux]

Still runs at more FPS than FSX in my computer...

[tomp2008]

i fondly remember crashing into the Hancock building ;)

[LunaVorax]

Is it the 2.0 version?

[LunaVorax]

Oh sorry, it shows very quickly at the very beginning of the video. Version 2.13

[Denvermorgan2000]

I remember this lol i paid a lot for this experience. lol Memorys :-) it was worth it too!

[REBLISH]

ah nostalgia never forget it..

[videofieldsoldier]

Could somebody tell me what the name of the song in this video is?

[SuperBrokenjack]

@videofieldsoldier "Flying" by the fab four

[geffrod]

Reminds me of the media sensationalism regarding the MS flight simulator "being used" by the 9/11 terrorists. "ZOMG, it's time to crack down on these terrorist training tools. Won't somebody PLEASE think of the children!?"

[drewish]

and i thought the later ones had sparse geometry. i loved jet fighter on the 486.. that was amazing.

[TheDemoniusX]

still is cool

[KALAMARDO2004]

ha ha.... I never managed to land without crashing

[mrsqonk]

Something so surreal about that music...

[narwoffle]

Perfect music, this.

[Flalaski]

@narwoffle exactly what i was about to say.

[nzoomed]

microsoft flight stimulator back then? lol

[jordannw2010]

did that used to be 'hard to run'? like on a non gaming laptop call of duty can be hard to run?

[jeremysart]

Which one is this? I used to play around with MS Flight Simulator 1.0 on my IBM PS2 with with Windows 3.1

[devilzzzzzzzzzz]

For some reason the game looks kinda entertaining...

[Hunterc1525]

Best graphics I ever seen

[skiperis100]

:DDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD­DDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD



[alanstarkie2001]

You should have seen flight sim on the ZX81 - that was minimalist.

[brokenjax]

@alanstarkie2001

Was that the old Timex Sinclair computer? I remember a really blocky space shuttle game on that thing.

[Foxstab]

@brokenjax Oh, god, I think I know what you're talking about. And it scares me. Man that was some fucking time ago...almost feels like another life.

[RoteKampfSocke]

Haha, taking of at o'hare! i loved that game

[nelizmastr]

[FlightMissions]

[nathanfishing3000]

[mrjohny193]

[cubg1]

Thanks for this clip!! I had forgotten about this game - I remember playing this as a kid (33 now). We've come so far, yet I am still entertained by this....I can remember crashing into the Sears Tower for fun.....now, you wouldn't be able to do that probably....

[FireAce44]

rofl, I remember this game. Used to watch the older kids play it all the time. Oh how cool it was for them!

[brokenjax]

@FireAce44

By playing this, I use to think I could actually land the plane if the pilot suffered a heart attack or ....got food poisoning from the in flight fish dinner.....Hope you got that reference.

[Darbyjack]

Oh wow, not heard this song in years. What is it called again?

[brokenjax]

@Darbyjack

It's "Flying", from the Beatles on the Magical Mystery Tour Album

[grampamanz]

the first game in my whole life

[jbone3465]

[ned987]

[FS2004ACoF]

Yes.

[GayBitchandFaggot]

I use this sometimes...

[stu22aus]

thanks for making me feel old

[brokenjax]

@stu22aus

Yeah, but not as old as the economy draining boomers

[snipperbes]

haha, was from the time that 3d (back then written as 3-d) was highly experimental, wasn't it?

[element1108]

Looks like Chicago O'Hare! :)

[FS2004ACoF]

Because it is.

[brokenjax]

@element1108

[brokenjax]

@MrMagichobo21

If you really want to live in the retro days, take your time and spell out each and every word. It really is quite therapeutic, and contributes to creative thought, in which we are in dire need of these days.
