hey bud,
           depending on what type of planes you like i think its a choice of 4 main sims.
Falcon4 Allied Force
Lock On
FSX
IL2 Strumovik series

nope have to say i've never been into them.

you need joysticks etc for them.

remember a guy at work who paid a lot of money to buy the proper flight control type of things....well over 3 firgures iirc.

Thats really cool, ive seen him using it for driving games aswell but i think i personally would throw up.

Has anyone seen these http://youtube.com/watch?v=drcHnu3f5iw its called touchbuddy (damn thats a bad name). The software is free but you do need a touchscreen but damn it looks cool
