Missed playing Falcon, believe it was 3.0 or 4.0. Been so long and I like to have it back that will work for Wins 8.1

Never got to play if but I've heard tons of things about it, especially Falcon 4.0. And mostly how incredibly realistic and complicated it is. Would gladly get it from GOG.

Thank you, I voted for all three of them :)

Never had the chance to play them, but I'm a fan of sims and they look great. Voted as well!

Would be nice, voted. Just got into DCS and RoF.

Doubt it could be as good as Goat Simulator, but we'll see. :D

I own the original box version of Falcon 3.0 and 4.0. They are the best flight sims I have ever played. I haven't played them recently but there is an open source project related to the original games : http://freefalcon.org/index/. (Wish there was a Linux port, I plan on spending some time to try to run it under Wine when I feel like messing with it.)

When Hasbro cancelled and sacked the dev team, they continued to make updates for the game even after the company abandoned them and the game. Like when there was a software upgrade in the real F16s, the old dev team came out with an update that brought the F16s in the game up to where the real current F16 the Air Force flies were at.

I remember the old days where at work we would hook two computers with null modem cables to play flight sims against each other. :)

Falcon 4.0 with BMS mod is arguably the most realistic flight sim ever. Maybe not the most realistic flight model but avionic systems are best.

Falcon 3.0 ( together with the Mig 29 and F-18 extensions) and 4.0 ( not allied force ) are in Tommo's hands. When Tommo ex-Microprose games, I had hopes that we would soon seen one of these, or 1942 Pacific Air war or 1943 European Air War.... but much time has passed. Tommo released one game here lately, and released Gunship! on Steam, so , who knows....

FYI, Falcon 3.0 gold runs like a Swiss watch under Dosbox , so that one would be pretty straightforward to release.

Ah I remember good old falcon 3.0 ... My friend and I networked it at his house... The following account is true as I remember it...

It was a calm sunny day that day, I "dead puppy" and my friend " broccoli" left for a mission over enemy airspace... ( I believe it was a bombing mission, but honestly I can't remember) we took off full of promise, with our flight sticks and paddles we felt quite confident in our upcoming success...
We followed our way-points and closed into our target area... Target missed, complete failure.

That was the easy part, seconds later we had bogies.. Migs! This was what we were waiting for! A fight... The seconds went slowly, it very soon became evident that the boys were outmatched by these Migs... " broccoli" was hit! He was going in... No parachute " dead puppy" noted, grim.
Now in a completely hopeless situation, it was decided to run... Full afterburner... Successful escape ... But what's this? An enemy cargo plane? Bomber? Revenge! Target locked, tone.. Missiles away! It's a hit! He's done.

Back to the airfield, maybe "broccoli" hadn't died in vain... I had my first victory!

There's the field ahead... Hmm this landing stuff is extra tricky... Oops I might be a little hot on this approach... Uh oh... Ugh! Crashed after running out of runway... Whew, I survived...

What's this? An inquiry about downing an allied aircraft? Dafuq? Damn it, Jim! ...

When I was a kid we had a box set called "Falcon Gold", it came with a CD-ROM and a box full of huge user manuals. I don't remember ever playing it though.

Still have the entire set too...
