LISTEN TO WHAT I HAVE TO SAY AS IT'S INCREDIBLY IMPORTANT!
Sierra made such good early games but was such a poorly run company. The way they made money on those titles they should be up to Leisure Suit Larry 38 and Hero's Quest Volume 47 by now.

It's really a shame this genre died. Now it's one extreme or the other.

If you're not playing DCS A-10C like it's an arcade shooter then you're doing it wrong. Shoot down the tanker, blow up your friends with an AGM-65 while they're still taxiing out to the runway, kamikaze yourself into the target tanks.

That's about as close as it gets. HDI and I used to play LOAC against each other across the apartment at Tyndall, and it was basically, whoever wins the first round will win every round until they run out of AMRAAMS or fuel, then roles reverse...repeat.

The old Novalogic F-22 games loving owned. Also Strike Commander.
