A game indeed. :)  8)

There is little sim-like in EECH. :P

I think you're quibbling over semantics but whatever.......

Granted. THIS is a simulator http://www.aviationsystemsdivision.arc.nasa.gov/facilities/cvsrf/acfs.shtml.

Call it what you will. It will teach you how to fly a helicopter in combat situations.

You're obviously not aware of the common discussions over at the Eagle Dynamics board.
Calling anything else than ED's study sims a sim is a continuous joke around there.
Nevermind. :D

I suspected that was the crux of the issue.

Those guys sound so elitist. Many in the simming world are like that. They try to prove that they are better than the common gamer...

Can we stop calling EECH a 'sim' please. :P

What would you call it? Any "sim" in the PC environment is a "game" first and a "sim" second.

Aye.

What next?  Denying the tag to games like Strike Fighers 2?  ???

You are a little late to the party, Nefaro. ;)
It was already established as being a joke that did not click. So nevermind.

Sorry.. hadn't frequented the ED boards.  I'm sure there are plenty Sim elitists there, that you were making fun of.  ;D
