Ok, as in my other reviews for such sims you need to ask yourself the question: Why do you want to fly such an old simulation? - You are flying a F-16 with the avionics of an "A" model (characteristic is the radar/electro-optical display and the stores control panel) and additionally via seperate addons the F/A-18 Hornet and the MiG-29 Fulcrum. - Participation in a serious and big training course. Lot's of Red Flag preset and theoretical training missions (Defensive BFM, Head on BMF, Offensive BFM, Lessons from the manual etc.) and you can create and edit your own missions. - Pete Bonnani's fantastic video lessons called "The Art of the Kill" are included. Learn how a dogfight is done properly, learn maneuvers, learn to manage your energy (altitude for speed, speed for maneuvering), apply all this in the training missions at the Red Flag menue. - Record your flight's, analyze and evaluate them in the ACMI. - Relive one of the first (if not THE first) effective padlock features i...

IDK what a game , but cards cheap and fast farm
For those of you who don't mind a learning curve, and are willing to spend some time to get good at a game, or to accept playing at lower difficulty settings if you don't want to learn all the details, I have to reccomend this one. Be sure to look through the manuals to learn to keys, and find the quick reference cards for each of the aircraft. This was among the first serious "study sims", and although it may not include all of the detail and realism of Falcon 4 BMS, for it's time it was good, and as the series moved on it increased in realism and accuracy. On the upside, you'll find that there is a dynamic campaign that can be directly influenced by your actions. In fact your success or failure seems to disproportionately effect the outcome of the campaign. There is varied terrain, as well as can be represented in the simulator, changing weather, and so on. Unfortunately over time I have found that the missions become somewhat predictable. There are only so many "templates" an...
Not really a fan, although fan of the genre. God, I miss old F-22 TAW.

I love this game! They put a great deal of effort into this game which was state-of-the-art at the time. I wish the Falcon team were still making combat aircraft simulators like this, but hopefully Falcon 5 can capture the magic that Falcon Gold did for its time: provide a realistic simulation of top-of-the-line combat aircraft.
[h2]Falcon Gold[/h2] Has a total of [b]6[/b] trading cards.
Now its playable, very cool, great to see an update for this classic!
ALL TIME FLIGHT SIM CLASSIC Includes Mig 29 and Hornet No other words can describe. 4.0 was the only one better!
If you want a hard simulator and Realistic one and don't care about the graphic falcon is for you! Also i recommend it because since back to microprose they are working to make it better and their customers service is the best!
