Pro Flight Simulator
ProFlightSimulator Review - What Exactly Is This Package?
Before I go into details, lets take a look at
the impressive stats. ProFlightSimulator comes complete with a fully
realized and modelled world, with landmarks and accurate scenery for
every part of the globe, powered by Google Maps.
The game even accurately maps the solar system,
and weather patterns are accessed in real-time to deliver true-to-life
weather in every area of the globe. It truly does feel like you're
traversing the planet in the plane of your choice.
Speaking of planes, there is a massive
collection of aircraft at your disposal, all accurately modelled. Nearly
120 planes were available at the time of this ProFlightSimulator
review, and more are being added all the time, thanks to the game's
dedicated team of developers.
However, with so many flight sims out on the market and on the internet today, Is ProFlightSimulator really worth the money?
To answer this question and to find if this
package is really for you lets talk about some of the pros and cons of
this flight sim
ProFlightSimulator Review - The Pros And Cons
The Pros:
Extremely Realistic Flying
This ProFlightSimulator software is more
realistic than any other simulation software available. It has been
built to be as close to real life as possible. Everything from terrain,
aircraft reactions, to planetary alignments & movements.
After playing dozens of other flight sims online I noticed the most about ProFlightSImulator is the attention to detail.

Extensive Selection of aircraft and Maps
I was impressed with the most was the
professional, fully detailed, Real Life flight sim with support for over
20,000 of the worlds airports, extensive scenery packs as well as120
different planes from Concords, F16s, Migs, airliners and more.
From the 1903 Wright Flyer piloted by the Wright
Brothers, to the Boeing 747 and even the latest military fighter jet,
ProFlightSimlator give you the opportunity to experience a huge number
of aircraft first hand.
Accurate World Mapping
The
game even goes to the extent of including accurate mapping of the solar
system and real time weather. So if it’s raining in Florida in real
life it will be raining in Florida in the game!
Very Useful Bonuses That Beats Other Package:
When you order ProFlightSimulator you will also receive these 3 bonuses which no other flight sim package offers:
1. Interactive Scenery Designer
2.
Kelpie Flight Planner
3. Free Combat Flight Simulator Game
Great MultiPlayer Options
ProFlightSimulator has an online component has
been expertly implemented. Two that stood out in the online mode were
formation flying and chatting, which to be honest I thought were put
together brilliantly.
Money Back Guarantee
The product comes with 60 days money back
guarantee and if you are not completely satisfied with what you get, you
will receive your money back.
Free Updates For Life
Whats
more, included in the ProFlightSimulator package are free updates which
ensures that there is a constant stream of content which compliments
the package more.
The Cons :
It May Take Time To Download The Package
The size of this download package is not small
and if you have slow internet connection it may take you a couple of
hours to download all the blueprints.
In this case it may be a good idea to upgrade to the DVD edition (you can do it at the members' area).

May Be A Little Overwhelming At First
Just because there are so many different
aircraft and maps, the members' area can be a little overwhelming at
first. However the downloads are organized by category and once you get
started, you will find it is not difficult to find what you are looking
for.
A Simulation - Not an Arcade Game
This is a benefit in my opinion but I need to
get this out because some folks may prefer an "arcade" version of a
flight simulator. Before you can fully appreciate real flight simulator
games you have to learn the controls. If instant gratification is more
your preference (arcade style flying), ProFlightSimulator may not be for
you. However, if you have the time and patience to devote to learning,
many hours of hugely enjoyable REALISTIC gaming await you.
The Bottom Line
Overall, there is no doubt that ProFlightSimulator one of the best value flight simulators available on the market.
We went into this review somewhat sceptical of
the high praise it has received from others, but walked away happily
converted. The game looks, sounds, and plays better than any other
flight sim on the market, and has more planes, locations, and options
available to boot. It will keep even the most devoted gamer busy for
months, exploring the beautiful planet we call home.
All in all, this is a great game that will appeal to new and veteran flight simulation fans alike.
