Pulse and NadIR are free, they expect you to pay in feedback IR files, No one stops you from using free or home made IR.

TH3 is free, it's included on its Cakewalk Bandlab.

30 days free trial without buying anything.

Torpedo Wall of Sound it's free, you pay for a single speakes simulation and it gives you two additional pre-selected bundled as a 'demo' ones.

AmpliTube has free version, boutique only for the modules.

Guitar Rig has free version, boutique for the modules.ReCABINET it's 19.99$, it bundles 828 IR crazy files based on 10 amps and 9 mics.Personally, I'd say Guitar Rig 5 would be worth it if you could get the Kontrol Rig pedalboard/DAC which lets you control the effects on the fly, including the wah pedals, but that's only if you're interested in having footswitches for your Guitar Rig effects (and especially if you need audio inputs). I also don't know what kind of amp/effect stuff comes Logic Pro X, so I can't really compare it, either.

I know IRs are big right now - IR being Impulse Response, which mimics the way cabinets react, but again, I haven't found any more than I like with Amplitube, but that might be because I know how to tweak Amplitube more than IRs. Maybe someone else could could give some more info on them. I know there are some highly recommend free amp sims out there, although the ones I've tried, I haven't liked as much as Amplitube. I tend to see people recommend other amp sims, though, and I haven't kept up with the latest paid stuff. I personally use Amplitube for my amp sim, and then Guitar Rig 5 for the effects. I definitely think the sound effects are really good (mostly because you can tweak it a lot), but the amp sims feel very outdated. How much would you be paying for it? I checked on Native Instruments website, and it was $199, which is definitely too much.
