    He's just doing that circular type talk again. He'll next claim he knows all this stuff and then post some other useless information.
    Thanks,

    I think FSX and addons are going to be around for a long time. The 720 Xbox will be a huge leap forward for Xbox users, but can't imagine buying one. Wonder what will happen in a couple years to the FS franchise?

    Why on earth you feel the need to comment on things you know nothing about is beyond me. OpenGL is version 4.0... does that mean it's 7 versions behind DirectX?

    DirectX 8.1(4.08.01.0810) Windows XP, Windows XP SP1, Windows Server 2003 and Xbox exclusive
    What has OpenGL version labeling got to do with it?
    Bottom line, the PC has, and probably will have in the future, more processing power than a console ever will.
    Gaming Consoles are for....duh. Personal Computers are, as their name states, Computers. Learn the difference.

    As for Flight on the Xbox Durango(sorry couldn't help it), I wouldn't rule it out.
    It is quite possible that MS, with a good financial outlook for the title within the gaming genre, may do just that...Don

    Seeing our friend from way up north continues to go round and round with off topic nonsense, this one is done. That is the reason and I feel pretty darn good so far. It is going to be a beautiful day here just north of Canada. (Did you know that Detroit, MI is the only place in the lower 48 states that is north of Canada?)
    Thanks,

    Jim
