Just skeptical. Stuff like "will bring a new perspective to the long-standing "Flight Simulator" franchise" and "it is an entirely new breed of virtual flight" is setting off alarm bells.

They keep saying they are focusing on PC development again, and yet in their pre-E3 conference 3/4 of their time was devoted to Kinect. Even the console-gamers don't want to hear about that damn thing, it's got about 2 or 3 titles that might be worth their cash.

They've already proven that they are completely out of touch with gaming in general (imho at least), let alone PC gaming, so personally I don't have high hopes for the future.
