71st_Mastiff Posted June 20, 2010 Posted June 20, 2010 So looks like Flight sims are taking a back seat to Racing sims? I have been an avid gamer for over 20 years and talk about coming full circle. If anything history wise, it will be another 10 years before we see any decent flights sim make it back on the market. If at all. :huh: "any failure you meet, is never a defeat; merely a set up for a greater come back", W Forbes.

Prophet4no1 Posted June 20, 2010 Posted June 20, 2010 The gaming industry has dumbed things down as it's become more mainstream. Just like network TV, it's dumbed down for the masses. The sad thing is that this is mostly caused by the explosion on the console side. If you look at the games coming out for PC, all but a couple RTS and MMO games are just console ports. No one wants to make deep and rich games any more. Sims and deep games are to complex to make so they get tossed aside form simpler games that can be tossed out very quickly. I have 20 years of gaming under my belt now. I've seen a lot. I think great gaming died in the 90's and first couple years of 2000's. Not must truly great has come along since. Only new really good and richly complex games that I have seen are Empire: Total War, DCS:BS, and to some degree the Half-Life games. That is about it. Not that I'm not having fun with others.
