Pacific Fighters is the latest installment and it covers the Pacific Theatre.
Il2 is sweet, no doubt. I have 13 sims onboard. One computer is strictly reserved for sims. I play with 'em all but I'm the master of none. Just not enuff time.
Ever heard of Falcon 4? It has a 600 page manual. I'm convinced that if you learned the manual you would be a qualified F16 pilot. But who the hell has that much time? I've run into airline pilots who use the Microsoft sims to practise flying the birds they're type rated in. How boring. If I'm gonna fly a straight and level mission for three hours I wanna get paid for it. Lol.
WOW is not a sim although programmers have written stuff to make the models more realistic. I like it, as I do the Descent series, because if you want some quick, dirty and easy action it offers it. The guys I run into beat me like I'm a red headed step child. Same class of pilots as in Descent. Hell, I still play Descent but even D3 has scarce online games.
