I'm really getting into them. I used to play a lot of 2D shoot 'em ups like U.N Squadron for the SNES or Raiden Project for the PSone back when I was younger. I didn't pay much attention to 3D flying shooters because Starfox to me looked meh, but recently I tried it and it was pretty awesome.

Right now I'm playing Project Sylpheed on the Xbox 360 and I find it pretty fun despite all the hate going on around it (because the story sucked, or because the HUD takes up too much space. I really don't mind that).

And if anyones played Ace Combat 6 or Tom Clancy's: HAWX games let me know if they are good.

I'dunno but there is something about airplane games I really like ^_^

When someone says Flight Sim I think Microsoft Flight Simulator not Ace Combat and H.A.W.X

Both games Ace Combat and H.A.W.X are more action than simulation.

I recommend to wait 'till october for Ace Combat: Assault Horizon

It's not actually a simulator, but I think Ace Combat is great. There's also X-plane (warning, it's over 60GB) and MS Flight simulator, which are real simulators.

HawX just sucks.

For flight sims, I recommend YS Flight sim, and FMS2, along with FlightGear.
Also, if it says "Pro flight sim" anywhere, be warned: I read on some website that it's just FlightGear that's sold, so don't fall into their trap -_-
Their website design is also suspicious.
