I have been considering Deity Empires.

Me too, but at that price I need to be as sure as I can be.

I got Commander: The Great War on Steam as I enjoyed it on the iPad (until it was no longer supported). Surprisingly it looks great on my ultra wide screen.

I also put DCS' Viggen in the shopping cart then took it out since I've yet to learn more than just the basics of my last purchase, the F/A-18. But I do like ground attack aircraft and a bargain...

Commander: The Great War on Steam.  Nice game.  At only $10, I don't regret the purchase in the slightest.  With the PotzBlitz Mod as an essential add-on, I can foresee myself continuing to, you know, actually play CTGW.

Beyond that, I have looked over the Matrix Holiday Sale list again and again.  Nothing entices me to buy.  I don't like throwing away my money on games that, being honest with myself, I know I will never play.  I have plenty of more play worthy games purchased and installed here already that are little played, or never played.  Why add to the collection?

My friend bought me ultimate general civil war. Very enjoyable. I didn't buy anything though, tight in funds and nothing sparking my interest

Congrats solops!!!

For me still haven't pulled the trigger on anything in the sale.
I might go for a Beyerdynamics DT-990 Pro headphones. From the stories I hear they must sound phenominal and would be driven well by my Soundblaster Zx with headphone amp.
But the thing is: I already have a very decent pair of Sennheiser G4me One's which sound nice already. I am not sure wether my ears would truely appreciate the difference in quality? I am not an audiophile. Years of noisy cockpits have wreaked havoc there, but I do enjoy high quality audio. Any of you nobbers have any input on this? 😊

Wife got me a Thrustmaster joystick. 

Unfortunately, I haven't owned (or played) a flight sim -- or any other game requiring a joystick -- since 2003.

Thinking about Flying Circus from Il-2 Sturmovik as a starter.

You can always try out Rise of Flight for free.
