CorsairMan Posted March 31, 2011 Share Posted March 31, 2011 People are selling them on Ebay but either the price or the shipping is eyebrow raising to say the least. I am getting back into sims... anyone know where I can get this at a reasonable price? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
GreyGhost Posted March 31, 2011 Share Posted March 31, 2011 >>> Amazon <<< has it in the Marketplace ... The used copies seem reasonable ... HTH ... Gregg Quote Link to post Share on other sites
adecore Posted March 31, 2011 Share Posted March 31, 2011 I'm fairly sure I have the ETO and Pacific versions at my parents house, no good to me anymore, if they're still knocking about you're free to have them. I'll be going back this weekend so can check if you want. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
CorsairMan Posted March 31, 2011 Author Share Posted March 31, 2011 (edited) >>> Amazon <<< has it in the Marketplace ... The used copies seem reasonable ... Very reasonable! Shipping to Canada is the issue. I have asked a few of them to make exceptions. We'll see. I understand there has been a change in the requirements to ship internationally. A lot of merchants are either charging an arm, a leg and most of a torso OR they just don't do it. EDIT - Nope - they are not into shipping to Canada. Damn Anti-Canadites! What did we ever do?

Ken Cartwright Posted March 31, 2011 Share Posted March 31, 2011 CFS2 was good, but have you also looked at IL2 1946? I'll bet the system specs are a bit higher, and not every sim appeals to everyone, but it's a new program that might be a little easier to get to run on a modern rig, and supports newer hardware, like multiple controllers and TrackIR. It has both the European and Pacific theaters and aircraft. You can get it at gog.com for $10: IL2: 1946 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Ok, I've got a good idea of where they'll be if they havent gone the way of a charity shop, will have a look over the weekend, cant vouch for having the instruction booklets though I'm sure the key commands and whatnot can easily be found online.

Well since you have all 3 and are in Ottawa and I cant be sure of finding mine, I'd say you're the guy to deal with. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
T0M4ever Posted April 1, 2011 Share Posted April 1, 2011 yes, but does it run in windows 7? You can normally make a specific program run in a compatibility mode for Windows 95 etc. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Have any of you seen the new IL2 game that deals with the Battle of Britain? It's due out very soon! Looking forward to this one as well! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
