Falcon 4.0 and Falcon 4.0: Allied Force

Falcon 4.0 was the source of much controversy due to source code being leaked from MicroProse in the year 2000. In the years between the source code leak and the release of Falcon 4.0: Allied Force (2005), many "unofficial" tweaks were released by the online community to fix bugs and enhance the game for modern systems.

Many of these enhancements have found their way into official versions of Allied Force, FreeFalcon and Falcon BMS. Allied Force was the commercial re-release of Falcon 4.0. FreeFalcon and Falcon BMS are the most current versions and are still in development as of 2012. The Falcon 4.0 series is one of the longest running game series using the same code base in the PC history, spanning well over a decade.

Famous quotes containing the word allied:

    A great number of the disappointments and mishaps of the troubled world are the direct result of literature and the allied arts. It is our belief that no human being who devotes his life and energy to the manufacture of fantasies can be anything but fundamentally inadequate
    Christopher Hampton (b. 1946)
