Falcon returns home

2023-05-04

Falcon has officially returned to MicroProse's line-up (you can read more at "MicroProse is back on the Falcon series"), and as part of this new era we've made a few changes to the classic Falcon packages. For the original Falcon itself, you can now enjoy the following: • Our classic games launcher, where you can comfortably change different options for a more accurate or nostalgic experience. • The Tandy version of Falcon, which sports improved colors over the original CGA ones. • New and improved documentation, a keyboard layout as well as the original quick reference card, with the full manual coming at a later date. We hope you enjoy these improvements as much as we did making them! We plan to continue improving the experience, so let us know if you have any feedback.

Left view show landing gear indicator and other...

For some reason I've put a lot more time on this game than the other Falcon games. It's your basic F-16 flight simulator, but there's something about this game which makes it pretty cool, or maybe it's the fact that I've had a boxed copy since childhood and haven't been able to play it for almost 20 years, due to me not having a 486 computer to play it on, as the one I used to have (for a year) got junked back in...

I have more fun watching other people play these classic flight simulation games than I do playing them myself. I'm just not good at them and give up too easily.
