Flight Simulator is so realistic! I have it for my Xbox Series X. The graphics are so modern. What I really like about this game is the ability to add a mouse and keyboard to the xbox to get better controls. A cool feature in the game is that it uses realtime weather and time. I remember my first flight after opening the game was night and foggy. In real life it was the same!
This game was not just challenging but also extremely realistic. I felt like I was really in an air flying controlling a plane . The graphics were incredible.

I waited a while for this and it was well worth the wait. I play this on a projector and it's almost as if I am inside the aircraft. I purchased the flight stick and it took the flight experience to a whole different level. I HIGHLY recommend. I play this for hours at a time. One thing I would like to add is it will take some patients to learn. It's not an easy game. It's literally like flying a real aircraft.

Got for my son for Christmas, there are a ton of plans. Would be better to have flight sim controls but still works with xbox controller

Nighttime is impossible to see, but that’s because realistically that’s probably how it is to fly at night. Incredible game though, just weird to get used to the controls if you’re used to playing inverted in FPS games.

I imagine it's a great game but I returned my Xbox and bought a PS5 so the game got returned as well. From what I have seen about Flight Simulator it's pretty awesome and realistic. That's the one thing I do miss about not keeping my Xbox X. I realize this review is not very helpful but I kept getting notices to review it so here it is.
wish I could fly, this will have to do. I see myself getting flight controls in the future

Great game. Relax time and discover the world. Pilot an airplane not as easy as you might think.

Doesn’t get any better than this. Amazing simulator and almost like really flying. Playing on the Series X is no issue at all. Flying with the controller is fine but will upgrade to flying equipment later on. Note had a few issues with it not connecting to the servers but it was because a setting was set to no online play. Toggled this setting to on and we were in business. You do not need Xbox online to play this.

If you don’t have game pass … then get this version. Least expensive but you can purchase upgrades within game for planes & airports. Get a flight stick or yoke as it would make your experience so much better.

Always been a Flight Sim fan and this iteration did not disappoint! Just be ready to learn if you really want to get the most out of it.

Very good simulator for most mid level flyers. Program has ran smoothly and has a nice variety of different aircraft. Scenery is very realistic and airport selections are also plentiful.

Breathtaking graphics! Decent enough gameplay using an XBOX controller. I'm sure it would be better with a flight stick. Main complaint with this game, it lags and crashes on a faily regular basis. Nothing more frustrating than spending 2+ hours in a flight, and right before landing, the game freezes and crashes. Also, as good as the graphics are, if they had used Google maps instead of Bing to render the landscapes, I think they would have been even better. Some very prominent landmarks (Hoover Dam) look distorted and awful. Despite these gripes, I do highly recommend it!

My son loves the game, said its pretty realistic and great graphics.

Amazing Sim! Graphics for the most part are incredible and smooth, my internet isn’t great(10-15mb per sec) so that will affect the game a bit. There are certain features I can’t use like HDR etc due to the slow Internet however in spite of that it’s an amazing experience. I think having a dedicated stick and throttle or yoke and throttle would make the game even better as some aircraft are difficult too control in the advanced modes with the Xbox controller. Aside from wishing for a more realistic controller(which you can purchase) it’s an incredible game/sim!!

Got this for my 6th grader who has shown an interest in flying. I figure I'd get her this to mess around with to see if it's just a passing phase. The disc gives you basic knowledge of whatever plane you have selected and lets you fly all over the world. It's pretty neat to fly over NYC and sightsee all of the major attractions. She's played it for several hours and really enjoys it a lot. I think I'm going to have to pay for flight lessons when she gets older!

Good game, excellent graphics. Make sure you're ready to spend some time learning how to fly.
