Microsoft To Offer Flight For Free This Spring
hypnosec writes "Microsoft's Flight Simulator series, which was in dormant state until now, will see a re-launch this spring and that too for free. The name of this series will be simply Flight, and players will have free access to the digital sky with this simulator. In other words, it will be available as a free download; however, the user would need to buy additional content to enhance their experience. The content that can be purchased includes aircraft as well as new environments. Microsoft states that the most amazing part of this game is the user can experience some real life locations like Big Island of Hawaii along with 'region-specific weather patterns, foliage, terrain and landmarks.'" [Video demo here.] I'd like to know where the ESRB finds "crude humor" or "mild violence" in there.
Oh hey, look at that. A new user praising Microsoft posted within a minute with links to sign up!
Um...
The post you're attacking was from the OP, DCTech, who provided the links in his original, informative, post. He then complained (with some justification) about an AC who attacked him for supporting a MS product.
Follow the trail.
