a flight simulator that served as a giant commercial for the new fighter, featuring an actual commercial for the new fighter (it's a cut scene where the jet is placed on a platform like it's at some sort of expo. some spot lights shine on it and an announcer reads off its stats and specs--"Lockheed-Martin, Boeing, and Pratt & Whitney, proudly present the F-22 Raptor: Air Dominance Fighter!").
the score was probably the best part of the game, doing its best to sound sound cinematic with only about three or four midi voices, and only two or three tracks max for the whole game.
had a really hard time completing the missions but using a joystick on that game felt really cool. i basically used amrams on everything, the sidewinders and guns never worked, added jdams even when there weren't ground targets, tried using chaffs but i got shot down all the time regardless.
idk, dcs will probably give you a more authentic experience, but if you don't have 1tb of disk space and want something a little more simplified, i think it might be worth it to revisit this with some qol updates. bump up the resolution, provide widescreen support, allow custom key binding and controller support--could be neat.
"I didn't know you could fly--"
"Fly? Yes... Land? No--"
This was a fun flight sim. Once I managed to learn how to get off the ground, flying seemed so easy. Loved escaping enemies on my tail by faking a crash fall, twirling around while taking a nose dive and, at the last second, pulling up to avoid a real crash, swing around and find the enemy plane if they hadn't crashed themselves chasing me.
Landing, however....most challenging thing ever! Crash and burn every time, but so much fun trying.
This game was unforgettable. After F-22 Lightning II, Novalogic revisited the game to replace the YF-22 module with the F-22 Raptor in-game model. The flight model, HUD, cockpit, sounds, and graphics were all revisited and upgraded. It was an improved experience over F-22 Lightning II, which I first played in a bundle with F-16 Multirole Fighter and MiG-29 Fulcrum. The campaign was fun, and Novalogic was known for its action games. It would be great to see this running on modern hardware and peripherals, preserved for future generations on GOG.com.

FreelancerEight hundred years prior to the start of our story, bitter conflict divided all of mankind. A handful of colonists struck out on their own to begin anew - far away from the Earth and its turmoil. Several ships were launched with enough equipment and supplies to give the hundreds onboard a fighting chance - but since the area around far-off Sirius had never been surveyed, no one really knew what to expect. What they found was a new frontier of free-flowing natural resources, unexplored territories, great wonders and lurking dangers. Each ship, representing the clusters of people and their earthly place of origin, settled into different parts of the galaxy pre-selected by their ship-board computer to give them the best chance of survival.
Life was hard in the beginning, but over the 800 years the different colonies prospered and expanded their territories, claiming more and more systems for their own. Survival and propagation eventually led to growth and profit as each of the colonies developed specialties and fostered commerce. As the colonies grew and time passed their connections with their roots on Earth dwindled and they lost their memories of the conflicts of the past. Soon their attention was dominated by new, more immediate conflicts. Feelings of lost ancestral connection spurred anachronism in the look of the great cities, and created a somewhat distorted image of each colony's cultural heritage. In the ever-expanding outer edge of the territories, frontier lawlessness prevailed.
The Houses: Each shipboard colony that left Earth carried some memory of its origins in its name. The Liberty carried Americans, The Bretonia flew from The United Kingdom and surrounding territory, The Kusari from Asia, and the Rheinland launched with Germanic cargo.
As each ship settled and colonies began to expand, they knew little about each other and their advancing development. Finally, little by little, the individual colonies found each other and began to set up trade routes to link their systems for commerce and solidarity.
Today, with each colony firmly rooted in its respective corner of the galaxy, the colonies rely heavily on each other for trade and industry but also compete for resources and new territories in the Border Worlds. The colonies mandate member governments in "The New Alliance" within the Sirius sector. To control conflicts, each colony has forged alliances and treaties with others as they have grown. Competition remains fierce, however. Struggles rage for supremacy in business, commerce, resources, power and control. There can be tenuous peace between colonies' political agendas, but the grabs for holdings constantly unsettle the volatile frontier.Our Pick Top Trending Science fiction Sandbox
