[edit] Additional Formats
I just wanted to add that Microprose, if I remember right, ported Falcon 4.0 to the Macintosh format. Unfortunetly I dont have the box with me right now to get any more specifics on it though but adding a notion that it was made for the Mac would be nice. Stryker20000 05:47, 29 September 2007 (UTC)
[edit] External links
The Microprose link is out of date - it doesn't exist. But, the link gets redirected to Atari, who is the current IP holder. OTOH there's nothing about Falcon 4.0 on the Atari site, so there might be no point in having that link here. The article itself mentions Atari as the property holder.
Would be appropriate to mention Lead Pursuit and their license to continue F4 development in the text, and link to their website.
The article should have a mention of Gilman Louie. And Falcon 3 or earlier games don't seem to have their own articles yet! - The Merciful 22:15, 25 Jun 2005 (UTC)
[edit] screenshots
could someone get some public domain/CC/whatever screenshots? in-game, campaign map and other screenshots would be nice. ✈ James C. 23:41, 2005 Jun 24 (UTC)

[edit] Free falcon
Can someone explain what free Falcon is? I don't understand. Website of Freefalcon is insufficient in info about it self. Kassie 14:18, 3 November 2006 (UTC)
FreeFalcon ( or RedViper in it's current incarnation ) is a collection of post installation patches for the original Falcon 4.0 game installation 88.212.174.4 06:58, 15 April 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:FF3.1 Refueling.jpg
Image:FF3.1 Refueling.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in Wikipedia articles constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.
Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.
If there is other other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.BetacommandBot 06:15, 4 June 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Point of view
Removed "many Falcon purists are offended to hear this piece of software referred to as a game" from the "=Campaign=" section because of its completely point of view basis, I have removed this sentence. Analysis and critiques like this DO NOT belong in an encyclopedia.--Cre age aeon (talk) 03:37, 22 November 2007 (UTC)
