Put on your aviator sunglasses, because Microsoft Flight Simulator is now available. The game uses real-time satellite data to create an intricately detailed representation of the planet. It's peppered with real-life airports, cities, geographical features, and even traffic and animals.
You can fly over your house and see it represented in the game. You can even turn on real-time weather conditions to make the in-game weather match what's happening IRL around the globe. Or you can tweak the conditions however you prefer. If you're interested in how good the game is, you can hop over to our Microsoft Flight Simulator review to see why we gave it (spoilers, I guess) 10 out of 10.
Microsoft Flight Simulator is available now. It comes in three editions, the differences of which are detailed in the above image.
