Microsoft, after dumping their Aces flight simulator studio development team in 2009 are about to get back in the game.

Hope its going to live up to expectations as FSX on release was like a slideshow and only now that PC hardware has caught up does it do what it should have done on release.

Hardly any details released. Just two generic videos to show their back!

Hopefully have a new game engine that can make use of modern hardware software.

Good news. Doesn't give much away about what it will look like though and the teaser video is almost certainly a cgi and not the actual game. FS9 still sits on my bootcamp partition and when I get the time I get well into it with Radar Contact, the Level D 767-300 and all the really cool UK2000 airports. Sadly FSX still eats up my computing power and craps it out at about 3fps. I hope 'Flight' actually works on an average machine.
