Their was a pre order slot on gamestations site for "janes advanced warfighter" that was listed as being released last month, but i could never find any info about it. Needless to say thats a no go now.

Thats it! So by the looks of things that game doesnt exist anymore?

All i have is energy airforce on the PS2 (must complete that!), Ace combat never tickeled my fancy. Really would love to play a proper jet sim right now.

Nope its a no go. Shame really because "jane" is a good series of flying games. I check often enough for future releases but nothing shows thats a jet related game

Well that is a real pitty.. Suppose ill have to get the old PS2 on and Taxi my F-16 out and go take down some stuff.

If you are happy enough to stick with PS2 games until someone sees sense, then Heatseeker is a reasonable game, if you can abide the irritating storyline...

The only sim aspect about it is the 'professional' option over the arcade flight mode - you still get enemy targets as tagged, but the flight controls are more realistic. You also get to drop a nuke.

The only good Jet Sim game I ever played, that wasn't arcade type controls or anything, was MiG Alley for the PC. (It's obviously not Modern Jets) but flying an F-86 or MiG-15bis over MiG Alley is really fun. Specially when you've got all the patches and stuff for the game.

Oh, well I also forgot about MiG-29 Fulcrum. (Nice name for a flight sim, right.

) It's all about modern jets. But once again, it's for PC. It came out in about '98 I think. So if you have a decent computer, it shouldn't be hard to get the game to run. I think you can find it on Steam for fairly cheap? It's got all sorts of jets to fly.

I don't think so. I bought them just on the fly, when I saw them at a store. I didn't even look into them when I bought them. Glad I did though, they were really fun. Specially MiG Alley.
