Nov 19 2007Flight Simulator Gaming Chair Doesn't Fly

The HotSeats 723 Flight Simulator TRX Game Chair has a very long name. It also has a long list of features.
It comes equipped with a 23-inch HDTV widescreen LCD monitor, a high performance 1.8 GHz Dual Core processor PC, LCD mount, Dolby 5.1 Surround Sound speakers with a remote control and subwoofer unit, Logitech wireless keyboard & mouse, cup holder for your drinks, and a swinging away console. Available in 4 vibrant colors, the HotSeats 723 touts adjustable video game controller holder, adjustable sliding seat, and the speaker system that supports up to 3 devices, including DVD players, VCRs and MP3 players.
The damn thing runs $5,635, which is steep. Now I'm not saying you could build something cooler for cheaper, but what I am saying is the cardboard car I built for playing Gran Turismo is way awesomer. Racing stripes and flames, baby. Those alone took two cans of spray paint, so you know it's bad-to-the-ass.

you could even BUY all that stuff for less but it's still cool if money is no object. Remember just put it on the credit card and you never have to pay for it

Of course this is completely practical, given the HUGE amount of flight simulator games that are out for PC that would make this a must-have. For that price, I'd require it to have a hydraulics set or airbags (see: hyped-up hydraulics) or something for it to at least move around. Otherwise, this is just useless. My gaming system is way cooler because I have a 10.25 foot HD screen, 630Watt 5.1 surround sound...so for flight simulators, it's amazing (and for other games as well).
