MS FLight Simulator, or EQ


Well, i was thinking of getting a new game, and both of these games look fun, so i was wondering what you guys think, points of interest:

EQ- Fun
-Played it before
-runs on my computer

MSFS-Looks interesting
-looks like it coul be fun
-no monthly fee

Only problem is, i do not have anything thing like a flight stick/joystick, so, would it be nesceiscary (SP?) to have a controller for MSFS?

I dunno I'm not a fan of FS's so I guess Id say EQII although I dunno. Seems like you need alot of spare time to have any real fun in EQ2 from what I heard plus the monthly cost.

Ok, you will probably need a joystick or flight yoke for ms flight sim. Any flight sim it is good idea to have a controller because it is too hard with keyboard. I have had alot of fun with MFS2002 since i got it but lately i havent played it that much if any just because i have been occupied with other games and RL. You on the other hand may enjoy it and play it alot. At first it may be challenging but once ya understand the whole concept behind flight mechanics it is alot of fun and when u can land a 747 it is alot more fun. Id suggest getting the latest MS flight sim as it has much better ATC and such but also for the more planes, think it is FS2004 century of flight. I personally would choose the flight sim over eq2 because i knwo i would have more fun in it than any eq, but that is me. Depending on what u are in to ya may have more fun in eq2 than the flight sim. At first it may take alot of time to get used to the flight sim but after awhile you wont need to devote as much time to it as you would in eq2.

EVE isn't all mining and trade routes you know... its boring if you play by yourself and don't ever PVP.

Too many people do the trial, and spend a day or two alone mining Veldspar out of an asteroid and decide that the game is boring, when it offers sooooo much more.

Then there's the rare person like me who spent half an hour mining Veldspar out of an asteroid, decided the game kicked ass, and subscribed.

Now I mine DENSE Veldspar out of a asteroid with a Osprey .
