I can't decide which one I should get I've played the LOMAC demo but I can't find a Falcon 4 demo, so which one is better, and do they have multiplayer? Undecided

It all really depends on what you want to do. Falcon is really great for in-depth systems. It'll will literally take you a couple weeks to learn which button to press to fly your F-16 correctly. On the other hand, LOMAC is easier to jump into, but it is still a good simulation, and it has quite a few different aircraft choices (MiG-29, Su-27, Su-33, Su-25, F-15, and A-10). So, what specifically are you looking for?

There may still be a downloadable Falcon 4.0 demo in some dark recesses of the www.

What I was looking for is a sim that is pretty real in the systems and every thing, because I have Jetfighter 5 and thats more of than arcade style combat sim

Why not get both?

I like lomac but cant seem to get the plane to stabilize, I mean I make a small movement to line of the guns, but it returns back to level after about a half second I cant even shoot any truck on the training mission. lol.
