New FSX Demo, same but better!

Hi Guys, for those of you that may have missed it, MS have released a new version of the Demo, it's the same area and missions but the performance has been improved.

Oh, and it's a nice fast download from MS this time, I got it down in about 12 minutes!

Download it HERE!

You downloaded 817mb in 12 minutes?!?! What freakishly quick connection do you have? New Zealand broadband (a relatively new phenomenon here, keep in mind) let me download at 237kbps and it took me an hour and ten minutes!

I would think it shouldn't be a problem. The software will be the same as the demo, it will just have a much larger scenery database.

Hi All. Just tried the new demo. Feels much better than previous one. Performance is higher. I'm just wondering what will be the frame rate at a busy airport... Let's see when the final product is out.
