Do any of you out there have any favorite flight sims? I personally like the highly rated space sim "Descent Freespace" both 1 and 2. Both games were given a lot of praise by the online review sites and newsstand magazines. If you havent heard of it, check out these sites:

Freespace 1 review
Freespace 2 review

Freespace 1 trailers and demos
Freespace 2 trailers and demos

The intro movies to the Freespace games (which are also shown in the demos) are probably the best intros I've ever seen.

Anyhow, please post any flight sims you had found interesting over the years for example, x-wing vs. tie fighter (another good one).

My favorite Space sims are any of the Starwars Rouge Squadron games and The Battlestar Galactica video game.

Star Wars X-wing definitely counts. That was another one that blew my mind in '95 (i believe) when I had my P133! What a game!

Terminus-it rocks
