Sadly though there aren't many flight sims to discuss any more, and the
group's been very quiet for a long time.

Some of us still keep an eye on it though, just in case something arrives
which *is* worth discussing.

Yea. Pretty much everything since Falcon 3 has sucked

I think DI's Tornado was released after Falcon 3. And you do not want
to suggest to Andrew MacPherson that Tornado sucks...

I probably still have a set of Tornado diskettes around somewhere. It
was good and I flew it a bit. Never got heavily into it, probably
because of racing sims.

Actually, I did get deep into EF2000, which was post-F3. That's the
last combat flight sim I really pursued. I'd love to fly it even
now. I wonder how well it would run on a current computer with
unaccelerated graphics?

I've tried to get into the various versions of Falcon 4 over the
years, but it just takes too much time - not only to learn the
systems, but to fly missions. Not much instant gratification compared
to online racing

It's ok, I've been taking the pills and attending an anger management
course. I can now tolerate the idea that some people (especially
non-Brits) might not have been 100% bowled over by DI's religious
experience in the form of software.

I have less tolerance for those who didn't feel the earth move when GPL
was released. :-)

Well, as someone who DID feel the earth move when GPL was released (anybody
remember "The Apex"?) , let me ask this: Of the old combat sims, which ones
are worth having? Maybe I could find them on Ebay or something. Thanks!

The forums at www.simhq.com are healthy and the flight-sim usenet group
is pretty much dead.
