i'm surprised companies still make things like this when there really hasn't been a decent flight sim in years.

Wow $900 to play the 2 games that it would probably support.

Id rather not

-Got POS?

Looks comfortable as hell though.

Would be fun for replaying X-Wing vs. Tie Fighter

i just realized you had to provide your own joystick or controller as well...

so basically its just a bucket seat with room to put equipment on and a 5.1 surround sound system...

Basically what it looks like. It doesn't even freakin move. If I was paying a grand for a flight sim chair, the damn thing better have some feedback.

lol $900 chair with a 17" POS monitor... nice.

I like my X52 controllers, but as someone else said, flight sims a thin on the ground. AFAIK the best for realism now is Lock on: Modern air combat, with the flaming cliffs addon, but the gaming engine is antiquated and drops to crappy FPS levels even on a high end machine. The aircraft model is awesome, but terrains and other models are pretty poor.

I liked my solution better: 2 bass shakers with an amp running from my PC. MAN was F.E.A.R. fun 😀
