Any of the various helicopter simulations: Gunship (MicroProse) Infiltrator (MindScape) -- looks like a graphics adventure to me Infiltrator II (MindScape) -- ditto, of course Super Huey II (Cosmi) I've got Super Huey (Cosmi), and it's a Grade A turkey. I've seen ThunderChopper, and it has the same very slow response that Flight Simulator II does (for good reason, it says right on the box that the graphics software is licensed from SubLogic). Also: Chuck Yeager's Advanced Flight Trainer (Electronic Arts) -- Is this any more fun than Flight Simulator II (which I find dreadfully boring)? EOS (Electronic Arts) -- This one looks pretty interesting. I'd especially like to know if it has any "real-time" sections where you have to be quick with a joystick, or do you get plenty of time to plan each move? And has anyone tried any of the super-cheapie games? You know, the ones that cost like $7.99 for 2 or 3 games in one package. Any reason not to believe that you don't get what you don't pay for in these? E-mail is fine. Posting messages is fine.
