Flight Simulator Downloads vs CD

You are interested in purchasing a flight simulator game.

But what is your purpose?
~ Do you want to be an airline or private pilot?
~ Do you love the thought of flying but scared tor too broke to learn how?
~ Do you enjoy playing games on your computer and think that the idea of flying at home is most appealing?

You can get these games as a download or on CDs. So you need to make a choice- download or CD?

If you are considering a download then here are some points to think about.

1. The specifications of your computer manual need to be read to determine if it can handle a download. You can look at a manual online via your computer website or download and print it off. Another option is to go to a forum on flight simulation and ask questions to others. Someone might be able to help you.

2. The amount of memory your computer has. The visual effects of a flight simulator require a lot of Ram to display the scenery to get maximum realism when flying.

3. Look for a game that has features as close as possible to real life. The game is more enjoyable if it is realistic.

4. With a flight simulator download there is no waiting to get the game. Once you have made the payment then the game can be installed straight away. You are then ready to fly!!!!

5. And it does not take up any extra space in your house.

Here are some points about a flight simulator CD which may help make up your mind what to go for.

Advantages

1. A CD is portable and so you can play it on any computer, like take it to a friends house and play or on holiday somewhere.

2. If your computer is having problems then it is good to have this game as a separate entity.

Disadvantages


1. However you either need to make the trip down to the appropriate shop or wait for it to be posted.

2. They are generally more expensive.

3. They take up space in your house.

So what is it to be ---download or CD?

And guess what you can get both with the ProFlightSimulator.
