Microsoft Flight Simulator

No snakes on these planes

- IAN EVENDEN

ELEVEN GAMES into a series that began in 1982 (and has its roots in 1976), and Microsoft has struck absolute gold. More of a hobby in itself than a game, Flight Simulator scratches the dream of flight that’s itched at the back of your skull since you first saw a huge passenger jet lumber into the air from the freeway near LAX.
