Flying Games?

[dizolit]

Just got a Saitek X52. Only game I have right now is HAWX, can't really find any other modern flying games. I'm not a big fan of sims, I like shooting missiles and blowing stuff up. It would be nice for the game to have eyefinity support as well.

I think you've got all of the arcade type games featuring modern aircraft and released recently, but I myself is a more vintage aircraft sim type of gamer, so I might be wrong.

There are a few oldies that might fit your bill though:
- Airfix Dogfighter is a bunch of fun.
- F-16 Fighting Falcon is what I'd describe as a semi-sim, with simplified flying simulation that only requires a (little) bit of flying skill for landing. It utilises the old Glide API for its 3D engine, so to make the most out of it you should preferably have a Voodoo graphics card from 3Dfx.

Wings of Prey can be as arcadey or hardcore as you like.

YES! The first was out in left field as far as reality, but I haven't had that much fun with a flight game since Freespace 2
