Korean War.
Jet aircraft dominate the skies. Tactical updates on call. You have a Sabre in your sights, but is he alone? Info windows give you critical data on enemy locations, plane performance, even your opponent's next move.
Missiles make their first deadly mark. Accurate flight dynamics. Faster speeds and greater Gs put your pilot skills to the test. Gunning fighters over Germany was hard, but a missile lock at Mach 1 is a whole different ballgame.Show more

This is a classic retro sim and one I spent many hours on as a kid. You play through 3 campaigns spanning through 3 different eras of air combat. There is also the custom mission editor for all sorts of scenarios. Do you want to try to shoot down a Mig 21 in an old P-51 Mustang? You can in the mission editor. The game can also be scaled to any difficulty level you want from invincibility and unlimited ammo, to a real challenge if you want.
This game should have been on GOG years ago, it very much fits the description of a Good Old Game!
Sure, graphics are dated and there are few planes, but I have put on this tons of hours. I had the original and for me this is one of the very best, non arcade, simulator. It includes a mission editor and you could activate some tricks like unlimited ammo, easy aiming, invulnerability or easy landing. I can remind still the voice of Chuck Yeager saying some tips prior to begin a mission, like "Remember, the first is the man, and then the machine".
This was the very first game i got for PC. I got a 286 12mhz PC with a whopping 4mb of ram and a 40mb hard drive. I put in many many hours playing this game. My favorite aspect was setting up your own missions. I would set up huge flights of bombers and attack them over and over. This game is an absolute classic and while its "quaint" compared to modern sim games, its still incredibly fun.
My family got the CD for this game as part of a Greatest Hits for Mac collection one Christmas. It went with our recently bought Power Macintosh 6100. Apple famously didn't have many games for it in the 90s, so we were happy get a variety that also included classics like Syndicate or obscure ones like Absolute Zero and The Labyrinth of Time. It was a great flight sim and the only game I remember my dad ever playing a lot on the computer.

Grand Prix 4Grand Prix 4 also known as GP4 is the fourth game in the "Geoff Crammond Grand Prix" series based on the 2001 F1 Grand Prix series and was the last version of the game released by Geoff Crammond and MicroProse.
Grand Prix 3Grand Prix 3 (GP3) is a computer racing simulator by MicroProse. Released in 2000 by Hasbro Interactive featuring the 1998 Formula One season (with all drivers except Jacques Villeneuve, who is instead replaced by a fictional character, John Newhouse). The game wasn't quite as well received as its predecessors, but at the time was widely considered to be the best racing simulation available.
An add-on to the game, called GP3-2000 or GP32k, was released by Hasbro which updated the game to the 2000 Formula One season. A few other changes were made as well including: updated damage physics including damage from on-circuit debris, improved AI, a new replay system, and EAX 3D-sound.
Since the release of Grand Prix 4, the GP3 modding scene has slowly declined, and with the cracking of track editing for GP4 many track modders left GP3 for the newer title.Non-fiction Science fiction
Grand Prix 2All the circuits and drivers of the 1994 Formula 1 World Championship is recreated in Geoff Crammond's second racing simulation. The game is viewed from within the cockpit - external views are provided primarily for use in replays or demonstrations. Texture mapping and full detail in the rear view mirrors are available for almost every visible feature.
The game has 5 skill levels, 7 driving aids such as automatic brakes and a dotted 'ideal racing line' to follow available on lower skill levels, and variable race and practice session lengths. You will have to alter the car's setup to get the best possible car performance - this ranges from standard features such as brake balance and gear ratios onto more technical ones such as spring settings and the ride height. Multiplayer games involve either taking it in turns on a single computer, or on a linkup.Non-fiction
