Title: Flight sims for gamecube?
Post by: topgrey on December 17, 2005, 07:57:39 AM
I'm getting a GC for my daughter for christmas. I haven't had a gaming console in about 20 years and usually play pc based games. Is there a flight simulator or combat flight simulator for the GC?

im not sure of any flight simulators per se, but a good game that comes close is star wars: rougue squadron 2.

Also, if i may...I suggest purchasing Resident Evil 4. I assure you it is one the greatest games ever.

Flight simulators are rare on consoles since you'd need a lot more buttons for a proper simulation. Stay with the PC for that.

I'd like something that emphasizes flying for its own sake and attempts to give some of the sensation of real flying; e.g. the N64 version of Pilot Wings (which apparently had a pretty good model). It's OK if I can't control every piece of equipment on the plane.

There are a few jet fighter games for gamecube, about 7-8 sadly most are rare, low budget and flopped badly
