GraphSim To Publish X-Plane 8 For Mac & PC 8:55 AM | Tuncer Deniz | Comment on this story
GraphSim will be publishing X-Plane 8, the upcoming upgrade to the popular general aviation sim from Laminar Research. In a conversation with IMG this morning, GraphSim's Jeff Morgan said the game will be shipping for the Mac and PC in November. Here's a bit more info on the game: X-Plane is the most comprehensive and powerful flight simulator available for the personal computer. X-Plane simulates anything that flies: single-engine fixed wing props to multi-engine jets; gliders to dirigibles; helicopters to spacecraft to VTOLs such as the V-22 Osprey and AV8-B Harrier.X-Plane has the most realistic flight model available for personal computers. It comes with subsonic and supersonic flight dynamics, simulating aircraft from the Bell 206 Jet-Ranger helicopter and Cessna 172 light plane to the supersonic SR-71. X-Plane comes with 29 aircraft spanning the aviation industry (and history), and several hundred more are freely downloadable from the internet. We'll be posting more information on X-Plane 8 as it becomes available. In the meantime, head over to GraphSim's web site for more info on the game including 4 new screenshots.
