Microsoft to Change Flight Game nytimes.com

Microsoft Corp. (news/quote) said Friday it will remove depictions of the World Trade Center towers from future versions of Flight Simulator, its popular computer game that allows players to fly airplanes over New York City and other metropolitan areas.

``We certainly want to do the right thing, and we're obviously as devastated as everyone else about this horrible tragedy,'' Microsoft spokesman Matt Pilla said.

The new version of the game is due out this fall.

In existing versions of Flight Simulator, players can pilot aircraft ranging from gliders to jetliners over much of the world, with detailed scenery of New York and other cities. When a player makes a mistake, the program shows the plane has crashed, but the buildings do not blow up. . . .
