Diablo. II was good, but didn't have the magic.
close second the original Master of Orion. II was good, III sucked.

I know this might sound lame, but Flilght Simulator has already given me hours of heart pounding adreneline rushing fun. Trying to land a plane in all sorts of severe weather conditions is very challenging and not for the timid. I mean anyone can drive a car fast...
One scenario had me landing a cargo plane on an ice field up north in Alaska. The runway had water at both ends so getting down and stopped before you ran over into the water was a challenge to begin with now crank up the snow and the wind speed and make it night made it almost impossible. I spent probably two days trying to master that approach. I finally did it after a million attempts. Great fun!!!
I hear there is a new Flight Simulator out or soon to be out. I can't wait to see how that one exercises my video card.

One of my uncles (same one that got me into AC) turned me onto a game called Air Warrior II. A WW2 massive multiplayer flight sim. Unfortunately its dead now, but I'd be interested in finding something similiar. Doubt I could get into flying a 747 around though.........unless its was a flight sim/rpg....i'd order around some stewerdesses for sure.

Yeah one of the things they don't have in Flight Simulator which I wish they did is the ability to put the plane on auto-pilot and get up and walk around the plane and see people in their seats.
Or to get up and jump out of the plane with a parachute. The game would transition into a different mode where you try and land on a bullseye.
Or combine Flight Simulator, Mid-Town Madness, Train Simulator and the motorcycle one (can't remember the name) into a combined game. It could be online and everyone races from one city to another city for prizes. You could use any mode of transportation and have many different routes to get there. It is literally open ended.
Oh I could dream all day long...

About flight sims, I'm not sure if there is one but I'd like to play a flight sim that's based off something like the Red Bull Air Race.
This was one of my favorite things about Crimson Skies, they had missions that would encourage or require you to do some rather hot shot stunts in your aircraft. Things like fly through a hanger durring an air race or fly over a train upside down to pick up someone being held onboard, or "thread the needle" and various other crazy acts.

Tell Mr. Anderson (insert matrix voice), that you should head up Turbine's first MMO WW2 flight sim. and you are hiring Zenato and I for consulting purposes. :)
