Well it's actually already out. I think at the very beginning of this year. The freeware flightsim with almost the whole world maped and over 200 planes i believe (i could be wrong on this one). anyway:
www.flightgear.org
I still have the previous (1.0) version and only a couple of planes, but man is it good. Ok not all the airports are done yet. but I downloaded my area. and i am still learning by visual flying. So far i flew to Venice, some small croatian islands and Austria. Mostly i can find the airport by knowing area. and i can even land. a bit rough but still...:thumbs:
Anyway the new version has flight plans and many other cool stuff.
On the FPS topic is Boiling point any good?
Oh and EoF Total war series seems promising and i also Anno. but you are right mostly they are not really interesting. i mean strategy should be played with the propper map like view not through the eyes of the private etc. (like world at war and the like)
