“Unlike FSX, this game is not a huge memory hog. It plays pretty good, even on high settings. My rig is decent, but not top of a line. In this department it is a great addition to flight sims. It is very fun to fly, has…”
“Awesome. One of the few games I buy at full price without waiting for it to go on sale. This is a SIMULATOR. It is about as complex as what it simulates, flying an airplane. Expect there to be a learning curve. Expect…”
“Have been waiting a while to buy this on steam (heard a bit back that it was supposed to be coming and I had played on an earlier version many years ago), very glad I bought it, not only is it a realistic simulator with…”

“This game is overpriced. Even at paying 60$ and 5 gb, I was very underwhelmed by the amount of content provided. If you want to add any scenery, a single continent contains almost 80 gigs of scenery, which the scenery…”

“I'm rather shocked to find I'm giving this simulator a negative review. I opted to purchase X-Plane as I found FSX lacking in some categories and wanted to up the Flight Sim experience. The graphics are fantastic and…”
“This is not a game! It is considered to be simulation software. And good at that as well. It has many add-ons available (MS Flight sim x probably has more though) and the flying experience is good. Pros: I have my…”

“I'm writing this review for people who might not know what X-Plane is and may want the opinion of someone who is new to the program. X-Plane, is of course, a flight sim. It's highly detailed. People say it's the most…”
“X-Plane 10 isn't perfect, but unless you have a million dollars to spare it is the best flight simulator you can get. Study, learn, fly, enjoy. It doesn't get much better.”

“This game is meant to be a full simulation of flight, and in no way is a simulation "game". After this past weekend and around 10 hours playtime, probably only 5 which were spent in the sky, I feel like I could…”

“I was really looking up for this simulator, and even though its not really a bad one the fact that there are so few airplanes and no airports whatsoever pretty much ruins it, you have to either buy them apart or look…”
“After spending hours enjoying this flight sim I must give it a good review and recommend it. I well start off by saying to FULLY enjoy this game you MUST install the world expansions, otherwise your world well be full…”

“Don’t make the same mistake I did. I bought this on steam instead of directly from x-plane directly. Customers who bought x-plane 10 from Laminar directly will get a free upgrade to x-plane 11. Steam customer will not…”

“X-Plane 10 is by far the worst peice of software I've bought for a very long time. Having flown FSX for years and currently flying in DCS World, Il2 BOS and Il2 COD almost every day, I feel I have some experience of…”
“First of all x-plane 10 is not a game. Secondly the modability of this sim is outrageous. Just search on google x plane 10 addons and it will lead you to hundreds of thousands of free mods, scenery, and aircraft. The…”

“I come from FSX:SE and I was happy there. Yes, it was frustrating some times with freezings, and out of memory issues but I thought, "well, there isn't anything else out there. PMDG planes are in FSX and Prepar3D". Then…”
“A simulator which is continuously being improved with new free patches. While the interface may give you headache at first, especially if used to other flight simulators, it is fairly easy when you have got used to it.…”

“Here's my take on the civilian flightsim hobby as it currently stands: More than ever, it is a period of transition and I believe the future looks good. I have and use both FSX and X-Plane and therefore have a foot in both camps. It's a case of fully realized capabilities versus…”
— a player, Steam review · 334 hrs played“I have been waiting a while to purchase this sim, now that it is on Steam it left me no choice but to pull out my wallet. This has to be as realistic as it gets when it comes to flight simulation. There is a lot to learn and a great community backing this product. While you can…”
— a player, Steam review · 14 hrs played“I'm not a real world pilot, though I do have 20 years and 5,000 hours as a navigator, telling pilots where to go. But I'm trying to find a good flight simulator in order to get some hands on to eventually get my private ticket. Anyway, I've owned FSX for years, tinkered with it…”
