This was my second ever flightsim (after F-19) and the sheer scope of planes and weapons available, the mission editor, the intro movies, made this game near and dear to my heart. I still remember practicing carrier landings, learning air combat maneuvers, and days and days of pouring over the thick detailed manual to learn systems and air combat strategies. From the venerable F-4 to the cutting edge X-31, this game was stuffed with content. I started playing this when I was in the single digits age wise, I loved aviation but this game let me actually play with all the planes I had read about in books and seen at airshows. Over 30 years later, I still credit this game as starting me down the path to my career in aviation, allowing me to take my first steps into the wild blue yonder.

Advertised as "The Mother of all Flight Sims" on the back of the box is not far fetched with this one. It combined all the expansions and spin offs of US Navy Fighters released back in 1994 for DOS (Marine Fighters, Jane's ATF, NATO Fighters, Jane's USNF'97). The graphics at the time of release back in 1997 maybe felt a bit antiquainted, as many flight sims already used 3dfx accelerated graphics, but the gameplay was still a blast (btw that last screenshot with F-22 over the desert is from Jane's USAF and not FA). And the amount of content is just mindblowing, with 6 campaigns, hundreds of single missions and over 100 aircraft to fly. It also has a mission builder and still active modding scene. A true classic in need of preservation for sure!

The first Flight Sim game I have played, many hours on Windows 95/98, and XP; of just Free Flight. Very simple to hop in and get good at things like landing. Kind of the Driver of Flight Sim.

Harmful Park
Harmful ParkHarmful Park was only released on the Playstation in Japan by a small company named Sky Think Systems. It's your standard 2D side-scrolling shooter, except set in a bizarre amusement park. As the (relatively lengthy) introduction tells you, an evil scientist has taken over Heartful Park and is using it for nefarious purposes. One of his colleagues aims to stop him, but she's old to do it herself. So, she commands her two slacker daughters to save the day, equipping them with some kind of flying motorcycle armed to the teeth with strange weapons.
