Did they ever put Flight Simulator onto any of the gaming consoles or is it only for Windows? (and an very early version for Macintosh)

@vaporeon_ xbox one...

@onfy How old is Xbox One?

@vaporeon_ @onfy not very

@The_T @onfy Was about to ask whether that's the expensive new gaming console, but that's the PS5, isn't it?

@vaporeon_ @onfy you miiight be able to find a used xbox one? but it'd be more useful to get an xbox series s, which can run xbox one games...

that said, I'd thought you'd have Microsoft too much to buy their console

@The_T @vaporeon_ @onfy Microsoft is a current BDS target anyway so i would judge anybody buying an xbox that wasn’t used and buying any games that weren’t used

@aescling @The_T @vaporeon_ fortunately i only have the first xbox from 2001 and i got it used a few years ago. ever since i swore to custom build to avoid the microslop tax they're getting nothing from me

@onfy @aescling @vaporeon_ yeah, I don't imagine I'll get a Series X or anything beyond it. My one reason to get one (Sonic Unleashed playable in 60 FPS) has been obsoleted by that PC build those folks developed

@The_T @aescling @vaporeon_ it's too hard to justify new consoles simply for the price... even if you don't have a good enough pc to play the newest big games that matters so much less now

@onfy @aescling @vaporeon_ yeah; and at this point, having a decent PC is slightly more achievable, and so much more worth the money than a console is. PC releases of games are basically universal and you'll never have to worry about a console upgrade making older games harder to play. On PC, 360-era games still work just fine (as long as they did on PC originally.)

@The_T @aescling @vaporeon_ while the industry is admittedly doing everything they can to make getting a new pc impossible, fortunately you can still buy an old optiplex and just pirate every game
