Hello everyone! Will PMDG come out with a boxed version of the 777? Thanks!

Yes. That will be some several month away.

Any month in particular?

 

 

Any month in particular?

 

No.  I would suspect after SP1 comes along which could be another couple of months.  I would be guessing no earlier than mid year.

 

Anyway, the boxed version usually costs more.  Why not just download it and burn to CD?

Well, on amazon some appear cheaper.

how much cheaper you talking  about  here( since it not  released at the moment so cant  see  how amazon is  cheaper), cant see why you want  to wait  when you can download it now and burn it  to a disc as said  in a earlier post

 

Can you post the link on where  the price of  amazon is is said to be cheaper

regardless, the download version will probably be a lot cheaper than amazon boxed IMHO, The boxed version is listed as "coming soon" at last on Aerosoft so I would say 2-5 months.

There can't be a valid/legal offer at Amazon right now. Resellers there either guess or ...   :ph34r:

probably he bases the idea off of NGX box prices?

Long-term publisher Aerosoft: 79.99 EUR for the upcoming box (not available yet ...)   :rolleyes:

Do *NOT* look at the estimated release date: It's entirely ficticious!   :ph34r:

At one point the MD-11 could be had for a mere $35! And of course there was the Best Buy $25 747X.

 

NGX prices haven't fared so well, likely due to higher demand.

Boxed version at aerosoft is much more expensive that download product. But I think the release date could be the right one. Aerosoft for sure has a contract with pmdg for reselling and have some better dates than we have.

I'd suggest to give all your T7 money to the developers, not to a publisher - so buy download from PMDG!

 

For the Aerosoft release date, it's a strictly technical matter, with no implications at all for PMDG's pace of development, their upcoming SP1 or SDK release date. Forget that Aerosoft date, it will have changed again, before the T7 box is out!
