"If ya like to waste money, you'll love this!!!" on by CrashDown23
Pros: It makes a great coaster for a frothy beverage!!!
Cons: Everything.... explained below.
Summary: Ok, here's the bottom line. An avid Falconeer from the old days knows that this is a quickly repacked and cleaned up version of the SuperPak 4.2 series, created off the original falcon4 code.
simply, THIS WAS RELEASED, NOT TO REJUVINATE THE COMMUNITY, BUT TO MAKE A QUICK BUCK.
If ya wanna fly around and blow stuff up like a mongoloid retard, BUY THIS SIM! If ya want emmersion, and overall the highest levels of reality you can get, buy the original Falcon4.0 disk and then go download either FreeFalcon4 from
www.freefalcon.com/forums
OR
Openfalcon 4.5 from:
www.f4forums.com/forum
The best thing about those 2 sims are
1 - they're free
2 - They're not junk like Falcon4.0 allied Force is.
Do youself a favor, get your head's out from where ever you all have stuck them and get with the program, either FreeFalcon or Openfalcon for true realisim and performance.

"Highly realistic and highly addictive." on by Josephc38
Pros: Will probably make you a real fighter pilot someday.
Cons: Hard-to-execute key-combinations
Summary: This game is really great. At first, it is cruelly disappointing for its difficulty to learn. But once you get to master this game, you gonna love this one. Its immense realism makes you crave more and more to reach the highest level of skills.
Its kinda hard to get this game working. Its highly detailed graphics are very impressive, yet it requires high-quality and expensive machine. If you want to play this game smoothly and conveniently, you'll need a supercomputer. P4 2.0 Ghz, 512MB ram, hi-end 3d accelerator graphics card with 64MB memory may be fairly good.
Once you get those required stuff, and you gonna play this game, better strap yourself on your chair. You might fell off during intense combat action. Be sure you have joystick. Put on anti G-LOC suit if u can afford.
And oh, don't forget to feed your dog. You might get glued to your cheat for a long time. And don't forget to give your wife money for grocery too. Lest, your family would starve. This game has a bad side effect: headaches due to sleepless night playing this game and ulcer in cases you might skip meals. So, be prepared for some medication expenses.
If you think this is just a game, and might you might someday lost your appetite for this game, think again dude.
Superbly realistic game of all time. The best flight sim game I've played so far. -
"The World's Most Realistic Flight Sim" on by gplpark92
Pros: Extremely Realistic, Good Graphics, Doesn't Require Expensive Hardware
Cons: Extremely difficult
Summary: This is probably the most realistic flight simulator of all time, and i'm sure the Air Force uses it in training (hey, it's possible).
The graphics are good, and it doesn't need a "top-of-the-line" computer to achieve 40fps or above.
The realism is unheard of, and they've worked very hard, and done a very good job with this game.
The downside? Learning how to fly an F-16 is an extremely difficult task that takes years to master. This game is, very realistic, and very difficult to learn.
It takes 1-2 weeks just to learn all the keyboard combinations alone, and steering requires 3 keys at once! All i've learned so far is how to steer, and even that's useless because I don't know how to control the throttle!
Near Impossible!
Nevertheless, if you are a fighter pilot in real life, i'd imagine this to be a piece of cake, because you'd know all the precautions and bells and whistles, so you WILL have fun.
I wouldn't recommend this game to the average gamer, (sorry). Allied Force is probably a good 20x more complicated than Flight Simulator, but more realistic too.
But if you don't care, and you're looking for realism, Falcon 4: Allied Force is the answer.
