Is anyone out there going to get the game "Airlines 2"? For those of you who don't know what is "Airlines 2", it is a airlines business stradegy simuation.
Just wondering if any frequent flyer fanatics would like this game at all.

Hehe, I can just imagine. As I'm flying on United, I play this game that allows me to creat a virtual airline which acquires United... Mind Boggling!
I actually spend a lot of time playing Hoyle's 2003 Board Games on the plane. The Chess games really sharpens your mind tactically.

I want to reincarnate PSA, the most fun in the air in the eighties.

Well it does not sound silly at all. I saw an advertisement for this software and was also curious. I think it would be quite fun and challenging IF it is a good simulation.
Has anyone tried out this software? Any reviews?

being the cynic that I am (and a bit of a game nut myself), i'd say that when Globalstar decides to release a demo version of the game, i'll check it out before deciding whether to plunk down 50 bucks on software. Software companies that refuse to release a demo version of their software are clearly afraid that their product is fromage! Plus, my wallet is my only way to vote for great software and lousy ones too.

I enjoy playing a similar game, with a more comical touch, called Airline Tycoon by MonteCristo Multimedia.
