I'm looking for a game similar to Ace Combat, but for the PC.
Any suggestions?

Lock On: Modern Air Combat (click the screenie)
That looks cool, they even have a new game out on the site. Flaming war or something. Too bad the graphics are not that good.Trigger_Happy_92 wrote:

no in fact they seem worse than bf2, athough F-16 OWNS ALL
F-22 Lightning 3
Old, but good... Not for graphic-whores...

by similar to ace combat you mean arcade style flight right?
Crimson Skies
Small hourglass island
Always raining and foggy
Use an umbrella
Always raining and foggy
Use an umbrella
far too confusing a game for someone who wants an ace combat style game.Trigger_Happy_92 wrote:

Lock-on I've got it not exactly pick up and play.

I picked up the su-34 and started flying. Heard the lock tone, dropped flares, did nothing, still got shot down...by a J-10
Not to mention I couldn't fly worth shit.
Maybe an arcade fighter is what I'm looking for.

You can turn easy flight on in Lock-On so you don't stall.
I was reading PC Zone and I saw this sick game I think it's called Air Combat but from the little article I read it seems to be a Tom Clancy game and the screenshot looked amazing

It is currently in development.
Clearly the person who recommended Lock On hasn't played Ace-Combat, or Lock On...
I remember asking the same question awhile back. To be blunt, there really isn't many fun flying games out there. By fun I mean arcade/pick up and play style games. They're all hardcore sims.

Lock-On has the mission editor, though. You can't argue with being able to carpet bomb T-80's in Sevastopol. You just can't.
That implies you can figure out how to get the plane to fly straight for more than 10 seconds. I love flight sims, especially when they're more sim than arcade, but Lock On just left me in the dark. The best game I played was Jane's F/A-18.nukchebi0 wrote:

Too bad EA can't make an air combat game KINDA like BF2.
Only with fixed hitboxes, better balancing issues.
I like the way BF2 air combat works, alot of people say it's not realistic, but it's fun. Well, has the potential to be really fun.

I did it the first time I flew. You can always turn on easy flight so you never crash.Major.League.Infidel wrote:

If you're looking for arcade shooters on the pc the only decent ones are:
Heroes of the pacific
Blazing angels I and II
Snoopy and the red baron (yes bitches you read it right:lol:)
Otherwise stick to consoles for these type of games.

I just downloaded the demo for Blazing Angels. It's actually quite a fun damn game. It's WW2 so it's strictly guns and bombs, but it's got a good arcade element to it and the graphics are nice. It ran nicely with all bells and whistles on my 7600GS.
Try out the demo. Not a bad game. Definitely not a sim, but it was fun. Controls might take some getting used to, unless you got a joystick.
