Microsoft forces selling of FSX

Featured Replies

A german magazine wrote, that Microsoft "forces" the retailers, to sell FSX for 25€. The difference between this new price and their (=retailer) price will be paid by Microsoft itself.(Speculative) background: Microsoft wants to clear the way for Microsoft flight. Source: http://www.flightm.com/2011/09/microsoft-macht-platz-fur-den-neuen-flightsimulator/ Greetings from Munich, GermanyChris ;)

Mehr Infos dazu in der aktuellen Flight! September-Ausgabe So, more info in the current Flight September issue. What would they mean by this? The Flight website? Would be nice to see updates this month.

Cheers, Bert

It means that there is more info in the current printed version of the german "Flight!" - magazine. But there isn´t any real news - just some useless speculations and the old stuff. They don´t know anything - like everybody else. Greets

Alleged, they (Flight!-Magazine) are in contact to Microsoft.

When FS2004 came out MS simply told retailers to pull FS2002 from the shelves for a period of time... same for FS2004 when FSX came out. Strange... unsure.png

A common mistake that people make when trying to design something completely foolproof is to underestimate the ingenuity of complete fools.

At least it means that Flight hasn't been cancelled.
