Microsoft made a big deal about the improved graphics inДЇlight Simulator 2004, but while it was good I wasn't completely blown away. After that, you can fine-tune things like the realism of the flight model (make it easy for beginners by automating a lot of the plane's functions and making flying more 'arcade-like,' but more realistic for pros), and the detail levels of the game. Just keep feeding discs into your drive until it's done. The four-CD game is a long installation, but the process is easy. It's a wonderfully detailed flight simulator that's about as close as you can get to flying without stepping into a cockpit and hitting the wild blue yonder. The granddaddy of airborne sims, Microsoft's venerableДЇlight Simulator has been given a facelift to celebrate flight's centennial year.ДЇlight Simulator 2004: A Century of Flight improves on what fans have already come to expect from Microsoft.
