Giving enthusiasts a taste of what's coming, Microsoft has released a trial version of its much-anticipated Flight Simulator X, which celebrates 25 years of the popular franchise and will be fully optimized for Windows Vista. The demo includes two airports, three missions, and three different aircraft.
Flight Simulator X is compatible with Windows XP SP2 and Vista, requiring 14GB of hard drive space and a DirectX 9 capable graphics card. The new title is expected to fully launch in time for the holiday season in a Standard edition and a Deluxe edition that adds more airplanes, airports, cities and missions. Microsoft is also building in an online component to Flight Simulator X.
