I remember Mig Alley . . . the AI was better than IL-2's and missions were pretty good + campaigns.

I do remember the MiGs cannon really tore stuff up, one puff ball and that was it . . . the Saber you had to hose a MiG down.

Good game. But yes very finicky. It worked on only one computer (and they was build to exceed max specs) I built but not on any others.


I can agree, I do like modern aircraft, but for some reason, WW 2 and Korea really draw me in. Like "There is no kill like a guns kill . . . " really fits my style.

Maybe its just the old nostalgic knights of the air where you had to get close and saw what damage you did and other other guy did. Where you are fighting for your own, its difficult to get a kill, and you can see your opponent.

Not like Modern air combat you can just go BVR and shoot your missile. . . or space warfare where you can be off the charts, push a button, and something goes boom far away and suddenly you got killionaire.
