Mostly space sims here, a genre which sadly seems to have mostly faded away. Very few flight sims as we’re both terrible at them.

Conflict: Freespace (1998)
Reviewed by: Stoo - August 12, 2002
Arguably the greatest 90s space-sim that didn't have FMV or the Star Wars license.
Euro Truck Simulator (2008)

Simulate driving trucks in Europe. Really. It sells itself.
Frontier: Elite 2 (1993)
Reviewed by: Stoo - April 5, 2003
Sequel to the original, iconic space trading sim. Make a profit amongst the stars, buy bigger and better starships, marvel at the realistic spacelfight in a vast galaxy. Just don't try manual landings unless you're feeling brave.
Gunship 2000 (1991)

Command a squadron of helicopters, in one of the many military flight sims created by Microprose. Also, yes, 2000 was a long time ago and you are old now.

More futuristic combat, putting you in control of enormous walking war machines.
Tachyon: The Fringe (2000)
