Simulation games

[CivNoobie]

simulation games focus on physics and the real than the graphics/plot what so ever...

I've played Colin Mcrae, Richard Burns Rally, Sims 2: Open Business, Sim City 4. I am wondering what are some other good ones to play. My computer can't handle Train simulator 2012, that's why im wondering.

OpenTTD. Cities XL. Sim City 3. Sims 3 (a little intensive though).

I really recommend OpenTTD, though. It's along the lines of Transport Tycoon (Open Transport Tycoon Deluxe).

If you're looking for a train simulator, you could also go a bit old-school with Microsoft Train Simulator. It won't be as pretty, but it is certainly a train simulator. And it's a lot easier on system requirements. I originally ran it on a 1999 Pentium II (granted, with high-end graphics for 1999), so even with Intel graphics, you're probably okay if your computer is from 2005 or so or later.

Microsoft Flight Simulator also sounds like it'd fit in your category, although it's better if you have a joystick/flight controller/something of that sort than just a keyboard. Flight Simulator X might be too resource-heavy for your computer. But the previous 2004 version, or an older one than that, is more likely to work well. I played the 2004 version on a medium-end 2002 desktop without problems, so I'd guess that even Intel graphics from 2007 or so would probably be able to play it. Flight Simulator X came close to maxing out my 2007 middle-upper-end laptop, so I can't recommend it if you have Intel graphics. It might be okay with 2012 integrated AMD graphics.

Train Simulator 2013 is pretty good, although your computer can't handled that so ARMA II is- well its a good sim but you definitely won't be able to run that then either.
