is Microsoft Flight Simulator 2004: A Century of Flight a good game?

Question

i have thought of buying it..also is this a game that can be controlled using the keyboard? i saw this game on line and it looked kind of cool.. let me know what you think

Answer 1

I got it and it's neater than a good buzz. You'll need a joystick to get the full benefit of this 'game'. I tried the keyboard route and found it bulky and tiresome. I got a Saitek ST290 Pro and I haven't turned back. You HAVE to have a joy-stick to do this. I'm trying to learn to fly the chopper. You take flying lessons and learn all the cockpit stuff and how control the plane. The graphics aren't like the real thing, but, so F-waht? I found the joy-stick at Wally-world for about $25. GO FOR IT. I dare you. Oh, yeah. There's a disclaimer that tell you it's not a flight trainer. But, it's awfully damned close.

Answer 2

i don't think so.
