Hi Dark, I think so. Simulations is becoming a category of its own, and think Audiogames.net should probably make it an official category as 3D Velocity, Lone Wolf, Tank Commander, and things like Microsoft Flight Simulator should count as its own category by now.
As to how MS Flight Simulator works it basically is from the point of view of a pilot who picks a type of aircraft and you must fly it from one air port to another carrying passengers or cargo etc. Since it isn't fully accessible on its own there are third-party plugins like Its Your Plane someone can by which adds the ability to use a co-pilot, the computer, to take off and land the plane. Its Your Plane uses Sapi to speak things like altitude, fuel, speed, etc, and you can verbally give commands to the co-pilot to do things you would have to do manually otherwise. Cheers!
