Fast shipping. Great graphics with live weather data. Limited on jet liners
Jaxonsdad –
Good game neat to see the area you live in a little hard to get started but once you learn controls its great

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!
Afan –
Cool looking game but is far from accurate. I could find real landmarks nor castle I know from other countries.
Ronn –
This games is one of the reasons i bought an xbox but it would not download problem with disc from company Best buy was good about return i cannot reccomend buying the disc version of this game…………………….

It’s pretty good it takes a little bit to get used to and playing on the Xbox you don’t have all the features as a regular flight Sim like X plane between the two the graphics are better but the gameplay is more realistic on X plane 11
RICCI –
The best flying game for the price. Great graphics
Isaac –
Really fun to play and the real world mapping makes it just awesome.
Adam –
Flight sim for series x is a magnificent piece of work. The realism and visual are unmatched. A must buy.
JaketheSnake –
I love this game. I had waited for over a year to get an Xbox Series X so I could play it. It was the first game I bought with the new Xbox.
Jack –
Amazing graphics. Running with no problems. Enjoying each plane and it’s characteristics!
Diaz –

Dave –

Amazing visuals and quite a challenge! My go to when I need a peaceful moment.
BronsonLankershim –
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!

Should be playable offline. Even if the entire game can’t be loaded into a disk they could at least give mini sections or something that can actually be played offline.
Fireplace –
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.
Tank151 –
Great game! Slow to download on Xbox Series X, but once loaded excellent realism flying aircraft around the world.
IIIxDoCxIII –
This is a must have game if you’re into flying. Visually appealing real world “map” allows you to simulate flying in the real world, and real-time weather conditions are an added bonus point for cool factor.
SoonerInFL –
Awesome sim. Map about 5 years old. Fun to explore around the world.
DB72 –
Fun and high resoultion flight simulator. Think I would have preferred to have gotten the PC version as you will need a keyboard for you Xbox to access all of the functionalty of the planes. Easier with a keyboard, but you can assigne different functions on your controller.

Drrugby –
I got this as a gift for a family member an they enjoyed it very much.
Daniel –
So cool to have this level of sim on a console. Better with a stick but also fun with a controller.
TimS –
Love the game very relaxing, great way to see the world without leaving the house
elbon –
It’s been a long time since I tried Flight Sim. Graphics are impressive. A little disappointed with controls using default controller. Sensitivity seems both too little and too strong at times. Would like to see if a quality flight stick makes a difference.
Iphone –
Awesome graphics my son has been waiting for this for his Xbox series x and loves it
Mystuff –
My son seems to plays it a lot he says its fun to play
Jonny –
Great game and good price! All data on disc and no downloads
John –
This game is one of the most beautiful games on the Series X I’ve played in a long time, if you want to know what it’s like to be a pilot check this game out.
Craig –
This game is very hard but it teaches you what goes into flying an airplane!
Nick –
I got this game because i jist needed something to relax after the day’s stress. And it serves that purpose.
Namnevele –
Very challenging and life like! Highly recommended!
HawkeyeTy –
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!
Alec –
It’s been a long time since I last played a Flight Simulator game. Now, the graphics have already evolved and what can I say? I feel like this is the best it has ever looked. It really is also a showcase for the Xbox Series X (if not, for the PC). Highly recommended!
Starman –
This game requires patience, it’s not jump in plane and fly all around, you really have to learn first. I like it a lot, can’t wait to get past training and really enjoy it!
RobC –
This Flight Simulator is great game on my Xbox and actuallyfeels like you are in the pilot chair of your own plane. I would recommend it to anyone who likes flying or just spare time at home on your day off. I would recommend getting a Flight Simulator controller at Best Buy to make it more realistic feeling.
BrendaA –
My boyfriend loves this game. Very interesting… very real
user709386 –
Xbox software does not work on PC’s. But best buy told me that not true. So they call me a lair. But I have both pc and Xbox software and the PC works with PC software but PC software does not work with Xbox. This is why I don’t shop at best buy anymore.
JavierM –
Incredible game!! It feels like you are really flying, reat graphics!
Hayden –
This game is really cool because you can flight anywhere in the world.
Crazysturgeon –
Love it. I would recommend it you like to fly. Visit anywhere in the world.
Pmaz –
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.
GFly –
So far I am getting the hang of it. It is so much better than previous versions I have owned, dating back to fight sim on Commodore 64. Using it to get back to real flying, thought it might help. Graphics are superb. Reaction superb. Need flight controller for more real feel.
Jimmychonga –
This game is great. I can fly and feel like I am right there flying.
user271332 –
