I have two more news (not confirmed!): 1. - On this page, you can see a new cover, a prize of ca. 32€ and a not-confirmed release-date: 30th November 2011...serious, I don't know?! 2. - In the German Flight!-forum (a big magazine) the head editor wrote casually, that not only Hawaii is encluded in MS Flight. According to his own statements, he's in contact with MS Flight... Kindly regards,Christopher

Hmm.... Always skeptical about those release dates.... I am not believing it till it is straight from MS.

I wouldn't take much notice of either of these "news", although I tend to agree that Flight will indeed contain more than Hawaii. The box is obviously a placeholder as is the release date, it may be in the right ballpark though. This months update should give us more of an idea of where Flight is at on the development map.

All of this situation is so silly (not pointing to this particular post/thread but the situation as a whole). We've known a hard release date for so many other titles for months and months now. MS have offered so little real hard info on this title and that along with being quiet on everything going on over the past several months make it very suspect and fuels the contention and rumors.

Good eye ;) Both the website background and this cover art are from the same image.In fact look closely, they were both cropped from a much larger image we haven’t seen.To me that says the cover art is from MS. And possibly our first glimpse of the final box :)

If you look again I think you will see it is just a cheap Photoshop using the Flight logo and the background off the website. Edit: on second thoughts... not sure if you were being sarcastic

Yeah, it looks a bit cheesy to me!

Lol, Okay I see now...This was the image I compared to.This image then was cropped by someone else obviously. It is a good looking cover though - understated like the name.And much better than the FSX box

LOL...

All I know is, the way that FSX runs on my computer now, I will need to take a load out, and a lean on my car to make payments to the NSA for a computer to run this game if they follow the same steps that FSX was made with..... Pretty sad when you can run a game like Crysis 1 + 2 maxed out, then have to actually downgrade your computer to run FSX "Ok"......Never ever thought in a million years I would have to suffer for a game old as dirt...lol

All I know is that the shop showing the boxcover is a serious computer store. I've bought all my computer equipment there for the last ten years, and I believen they are the largest online computer retailer in Norway.

And links to even more shops expecting Flight to arrive the 30th of November: http://www.mpx.no/k/ki.aspx?sku=623230 http://www.mobilestore.no/PartDetail.aspx?q=p:4149285 http://www.euronics.no/Produkter/Spill-konsoll/PC/Spill/Microsoft-Microsoft-Flight-PC-PC-Spill

Do they all include fake box art too?

I don't know... Looks authentic enough to me. Flight isn't such a popular title in Norway so I don't see why so many big retailers would post fake covers.
