I think people get a little too precious about the "Sim" thing.
Love racing games, but don't particularly want to be strapped into a seat for two hours on a Sunday afternoon, lose half my body weight in sweat and come out bruised all over. Or horribly killed to death.
Sims are cool for people who like sims. Personally I like a bit of game in my sim without having access to Boeing or NASA type funds - it would be fun then.
Try getting an FJ around Monza using a keyboard in GPL though and it becomes apparent that you don't have the kit or the feedback for the job.
There has to be some game in the sim or it's unplayable, or you are going to be really bad at it.
IMO, natch.
