The official trailer was added to the website, branded as Webisode 6.

My feelings on it are a bit mixed. It does show parts of normal flight, but it mostly focuses on arcade.

Check it out and post your impressions here.

"REAL EXCITEMENT".

Piper cub (or whatever it is) doing a roll.





Well, I'm brimming over with excitement.

It surprises me that you have no interest in something "easy to use" when you can't even get the name of an airplane right. It's called a Boeing Stearman.

it surprises me that you are now defending flight so much when u had this to say about it http://www.flightsim...x...98140&st=40 post 45 i believe.

i agree also.. the stearman is a strange plane to put in flight, especially since the market seems to be everyone but aviation and flight sim enthusiasts. and the icon looks like a toy.. so does the real plane.

? The stearman is a beautiful aircraft, with a lot of history. But that's besides the point...

It is no wander it looks bad, its FREE. It is a online download game and is free. Microsoft is a real disappointment.

A load of hooey if you ask me. Multiple times in that video they specifically call it a "game"...that should be enough for all of us to put our hands up and look back to FSX. Instead of repeating myself and the majority of the community..I give up on this already

Why should I be expected to get it right?  I have no interest in light aircraft at all.

*Shrug*.

Could've been a Ford Mondeo, for all I know.

That's practically what the Icon A5 in Flight is.

"One of the most successful franchises of all time has been reconcieved from the ground up."

Am I the only one who sees the problem with that statement? There was nothing wrong with the concept of Flight Simulator, so I don't see why they needed to reimagine the whole thing. It was successful for a reason.

because they think this will bring in the $$$

In reality, it will go unnoticed in the gaming world.

^Hopefully. And that should bring them to utter failure.

Mo's right about something, someone's smoking hashish and it's Microsoft. I think Brandon summed it up rather well. It's true and it made me laugh because it's exactly what will happen.
