back in my day if you wanted to flight "sim" dad would strap you to roof of car, add cardboard wings to the car, and then toss you a stick to use (maybe a dog bone) and there you go....you are flight simming

Doubt with todays amount of games and other forms of entertainment you'll find anyone below 40 who's stuck to just one game (and only to gaming).

Personally I'm stuck on picking a new mountain bike. Can't decide which model to buy... so freaking hard to decide it eats away my time since a week with no progress...
Compared to that the wait for the CloD patch is a joke (it's summer anyways! get out of your basements! )

In my twenties and thirties I did. Guilty as charged. Like a drug addiction. Now I await anxiously for a new patch to another sim. But I must have mellowed in my forties.
I find now I can:
- play another computer game, we're spoiled for choice
- press the off button on the computer
- read a book
- watch a movie
- go to the gym for a swim
- play with my son
- go fishing and camping
- give my wife a break and take our son to one of his activities (and hang out with the yummy mummies)
- build a model plane
- play cricket
- go to the football
- and yes, even talk to the wife.
I'm not criticizing any forum members, just my two cents worth.

Cool story bro.

Anybody remember the age before the computer - flight sim board games! Avalon Hill had Richtofen's War and the Airforce and Dauntless games. SPI had Battle Over Britain, there was also another Battle Of Britain game, can't remember who by, that I used to play all the time. Lunchtime at school playing Richtofen's War with friends, great memories.
