I am very much concerned about Falcon 4. At first, it was only the fact that their was a plethora of similar games hitting the market at the same time. Now, I have read all types of news regarding delays for a shippable version. I played the demo and was incredibly disappointed. I understand that thousands of copies will be bought by loyal Falcon players, but I don't see it being as big of a success as everyone predicts. Falcon 4 will end up coming out too late, much too late for game with so much competition! As for its superior On-line / Network play.big deal. While it is an excellent feature, I don't see people waiting and holding out for it. People will spend their $50 on games like Jane's F-15 (which I am convinced will come out before Falcon) and the other 10 flight Sims coming out. Once again, we will see Microprose waiting too long to release a game. I do see M1-Selling well, though I must admit that I have yet to play a demo of the game (but hey, the screen shots look terrific).
