Title: Project Stealth Fighter
Post by: quig on February 12, 2012, 07:06:06 PM
I'm dating myself, but did anyone else play Project Stealth Fighter on the Commodore 64?

Spent many an hour on that one, an F-14 sim (can't remember the name), and the Pool of Radiance D&D series.  Friend had M$ Flight Sim where all you could do was deliver mail.

(Sorry for the hijack, but) What was Commodore 64 game that had two guys face off on opposite sides of a canyon, throwing knives at each other?  The sounds they made as they got hit was funny.  If you got hit 5 times, you fell into the canyon.  The falling death scream was hysterical.  Sounds weird but it was fun.

It was a part of a game called Raid on Moscow IIRC. The game had multiple stages where you flew with a jabo, then landed on the red square and started shelling the buildings etc. At some stage was this knife fight.

Edit: I checked wikipedia and it seems I remember wrong, it was some other game of that era anyway. Raid over moscow included almost similar fight against a robot guarding the nuclear plant.

Might be 007 related game or some spy game, I remember playing it and it was hilarious.

Pure nostalgia, but I can remember spending hours and hours on this crap too (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xpZGD6m4xOg).

Time to get a good emulator again :D

Wow blast from the past! Yes I played it on the C-64. My first computer was an Atari 800 if I remember correctly. I had Hellcat Ace on cassette tape drive for it. I go mow the yard while the game loaded.  :lol Times have sure changed for the better, but back in those days.. Those were games great entertainment for aircraft buffs.

F15 Strike Eagle, Stealth Fighter, Gunship, Strike Fleet....so many great C64 games when I was 13 or 14. 

One of the first games you could fight another human pilot was on the C64, I think it was called Saber Ace, or something like that.  You could split the screen and fly an F86 against another guy sitting beside you, and is what I consider to be the great great great grandfather of all the games like AH etc that allow flying against another person.

Don't forget Silent Service either, another great.  Red Storm Rising and Airborne Ranger, a couple of other favorites.

Microprose sure put out a lot of great stuff back in the day.

On PC for me.....
F15 Strike Eagle: yep!
F19 Stealth Fighter: YEP! All time favorite!
Gunship: Yep!

I never player Silent Service 1, but I played Silent Service II until my eyes bled.  :O

Ah.  Those were the days when you could take a 300 page manual to the crapper with you.
