So like, just multiplayer flying? I think I'd wait to see what else comes on the table.

I'm guessing that there will be a hefty monthly fee involved.

But then again, read the "opinion" in the article. There's still hope for a FS style sim, and I'm not going to not buy it (if one comes out) just because it does not have MS stamped all over it.

Ugh, if this is going the monthly fee route, I think I'll wait and see if Cascade (mentioned in the article) or Aerosoft is able to get their stuff off the ground. Luckily 2004 and X still have years of enjoyment and life out of them yet.

Hmph, I wish they would just make FS11.

I might get it, I have FIOS so internet is no problem, but if it had a monthly fee I don't think so.

I thought they made LIVE for Windows free because nobody wanted to pay for that? If there are actually benefits to getting this over FS2004, then yeah I'd probably get it. I'd much rather spend

Well, IDK if this is old news, but I just saw on Slashdot
a piece about MS's new sim, simply called Flight.
and a very short
teaser video on what seems like a new hotsite
Btw, they're also ressucitating
Age of Empires as an online game (maybe something akin to World of Warcraft?)
Again, sorry if it's old news
