Microsoft has posted some more screenshots and videos of their upcoming Flight product to their website. Check it out here.
The graphics definitely look to be something of an improvement over FSX, particularly noticeable in the terrain.
There is one interesting comment in the latest (February) video: "Birds fly for free. So can you." This makes me think that Microsoft may be exploring a new revenue model with Flight. I wonder if it will be in the vein of the classic Facebook game FarmVille, where you play for free, but pay small fees for all sorts of "upgrades" to the game? Perhaps this will be more in the vein of a MMOG, like World of Warcraft, where you can join the "cloud" and fly around with other virtual pilots in realtime?
It will be interesting to watch what Microsoft is cooking up for the successor to FSX.
