Anyone here know the best Flight Simulator out on the market? A combat type tho. Like F18 by EA or my last two favorites F22 Lightning and F15.

I like Crimson Skies. Although its not really simulation, more of action.

I'm looking for a very good Flight Sim too.
I have F15 and I think it is a tad bit too hard for my tastes. I routinely crash when trying to take off and land. I can't bomb nothing unles using guided missles...I even miss with those sometimes.
It seems I concentrate so much on trying to get every little frustrating detail right, I forget about having fun.

Scale back on half of what F15 offers and then maybe I'd bite.

Thanks

I bought Jane's USAF a couple weeks back for $10 at the local Babbages. I am surprised that I really like it. I would highly recommend it- especially for $10.

Air Warrior!!!

The best!!! Not really a flight sim but a WW2 air combat sim. It is awesome. You pay to play $10 a month but no program to buy, you just download. It is worth it though. You can even use mic to talk to other pilots on your team and fly with a wingman. No bots, all real people.

Aces over the Pacific... OH MAN WAHT A CLASSIC... they need to re-release that game with a 3D hardware engine... great missions great game play...

BUT if you are looking for something 'newer' then get janes WWII fighters... the most accurate flight sim out there (WWII style)

or get Falcon 4.0.. that game is crazy realistic

Thanks for the replies folks. Hmm, decisions, decisions.... MS Combat Flight sim sounds pretty cool. But F18 (EA) is only 20 bucks right now. I dunno.
