Chris "BeachAV8R" Frishmuth reviews the controversial Microsoft Flight, successor to FSX... for better or worse.

Now that the dust has settled a bit, we seem to be getting fairer reviews. Or maybe that's just because BeachAV8R is saying what I am thinking

Good job. Let's hope MS will get their act together and make Flight into something with a lasting appeal to either simmers or non-simmers, or ideally both.

Great review...very detailed and good info.

That's a good review Chris - great job.

Great review, and looked quite fair. Unfortunately, it only verified that Flight is a massive failed attempt at everything it set out to do.

+1

Also, this is such an epic screenshot I feel I have to ask if it's real

I can certainly agree that there just isn't much to do in the game, which is a shame.


Is the best sentence in the whole review.

If I wanted to fly FS3, I'd build a legacy machine and feel like I'd accomplished something.

I wonder if they are planning to release a lot of the missing things, such as boats, cars, other aircraft, radio communications, and so on, as more DLC.
It seems like quite a logical move. Something like 'Looking for some company in the sky? Don't want to deal with Noobs? Lucky for you, we present the 'Crowded Skies' DLC! Now you will see AI versions of every aircraft you currently own as DLC flying around, completely independent of you!'
