This game needs a good pc to play it to its maximun capabilitys.. if you dont have a good pc the game is still enjoyable but the scenery isent as nice as it would be in full graphics. Also it can sometimes go very slow, i thought i had a good computer when i bought this game but apparently its not good enough. so before you buy this game check the minimun requirements.

Its amazing. Ok, lets get started - Deluxe and Normal are 2 seperate games, just they have different amounts of HIGH detail airports.

The game has such good graphics, remember, have at least 2GHz 2Gb Ram and 256MB Video card, this way you will get good preformance, my laptop lacks the 256MB and it runs really well regardless.

This game is worth your money - deluxe even more so. The downloadable aircraft make it even better!
