Video Game Reviews of Falcon 4.0: Allied Force
Customer Review: F4AF
Summary: 4 Stars
I have been playing with Falcon since 3.0 and very much enjoy the series. I had a recent head injury and the shrinks want me to play Brain Games type of stuff to help rewire things.
I told them that I was using this flight sim game instead and they think it's great for the same purpose.
If you just want a game that you jump in and start shooting things, there are other games out there. If you really want to get serious with the Falcon series, you will need to learn to fly the plane, use the avionics, and learn the weapon delivery systems. The manual is over 700 pages and is only in .pdf format (big drawback) but you can print out just the pages that you need to learn what you need to learn.
I purchased the Saitek X52 HOTAS system and am still in the progress of programming all the controls. In this game you will for sure need to learn a lot of keyboard commands, or get a HOTAS (Hands On Throttle And Stick) system. There are those out there that have profiles built for the Saitek, but they are usually in the .dat format when you need one in the .pr0 format.
My recommendation on this game is that if you have lots of time to dedicate to learning the game then this is the one you want.
