What's the best flight sim?

JaZoN_XD

Hi guys, I'm looking for the best flight simulators out there that are both ultra realistic and have decent graphics. I have FSX right now and although it is pretty good, I cannot lie, it is lacking some features that keep it from a true pilot sim (for example, no TCAS or weather radars). Also, I don't mean War Thunder type of "sims" but rather more realistic ones. I'm also interested in combat flight sims too, I have DCS, had it for about 2 years and still loving it! Anyway, input would be greatly appreciated, thanks!

BRRRT!

I personally like X-Plane 10 because it is a younger and more rapidly growing sim.  Plus I feel X-Plane has a more realistic flight model than FSX.  FSX does have more addons for scenery and such that make the visuals much more appealing, but X-Plane is getting closer and closer with more developers joining the fray.

I think FSX is the best flight sim or at least in the top 3.

Maybe @AlwaysFSX can tell you more ;)

Ignore X-Plane, FSX needs to be modded, P3D apparently flies better than FSX and has the same support and also requires a bit of modding.
