DescriptionThe game's graphics engine was novel in that it rendered flat-shaded polygons over the entire screen area of a color Mac at native resolution. In 1993 Graphsim released the internally developed F/A-18 Hornet for Macintosh. Based on the eponymous McDonnell-Douglas fighter / attack aircraft it was set in a fictitious Persian Gulf theater of war and featured a detailed cockpit display.[2] F/A-18 Hornet was one of the first simulation games to allow multiple players (four players) to fly together and compete over a local-area network (AppleTalk). It would become the first of a series of F/A-18 games. In 1995 F/A-18 Hornet 2.0 was released for Macintosh,[3] which elevated the level of graphics complexity and simulation detail over its predecessor. In early 1997 Graphsim released F/A-18 Hornet 3.0 for both Macintosh and Windows PC,[4] followed by F/A-18 Korea in late 1997.[5] F/A-18 Korea was set in a fictitious future Korea war theater and featured support for 3DFx graphics cards. It garnered a score of 8.7 as reviewed by editors at GameSpot.com.[6] In addition to internal development of the F/A-18 Hornet series, Graphsim published for Macinotsh a few notable game titles including BioWare's Baldur's Gate and Tales of the Sword Coast,[7] Volition's Red Faction[8] and Summoner,[9] as well as Interplay's Descent 3.[10] Graphsim also published Atari's Falcon 4.0: Allied Force for both Windows and Macintosh, as well as Laminar Research's X-Plane 8,[11] X-Plane 9,[12] and X-Plane 10 Regional.[13] In 2015 Graphsim Entertainment released FA-18 Hornet for iOS,[14] which remains its only title currently in development. ReceptionComputer Gaming World in 1994 stated that "Hornet feels great", praising the game's authenticity but wondering if some inauthenticity with the autopilot and instruments would have made it easier to fly for beginners. The magazine concluded that "F/A-18 Hornet provides an eye-opening and eminently flyable simulation".[15]References1. ^{{Cite web|url=http://www.mobygames.com/game/macintosh/hellcats-over-the-pacific|title=Hellcats Over the Pacific for Macintosh (1991) - MobyGames|website=MobyGames|access-date=2017-08-02}} 2. ^{{Cite web|url=http://www.mobygames.com/game/macintosh/fa-18-hornet|title=F/A-18 Hornet for Macintosh (1993) - MobyGames|website=MobyGames|access-date=2017-08-02}} 3. ^{{Cite web|url=http://www.mobygames.com/game/macintosh/fa-18-hornet-20|title=F/A-18 Hornet 2.0 for Macintosh (1995) - MobyGames|website=MobyGames|access-date=2017-08-02}} 4. ^{{Cite web|url=http://www.mobygames.com/game/fa-18-hornet-30|title=F/A-18 Hornet 3.0 for Macintosh (1997) - MobyGames|website=MobyGames|access-date=2017-08-02}} 5. ^{{Cite web|url=http://www.mobygames.com/game/fa-18-korea|title=F/A-18 Korea for Macintosh (1998) - MobyGames|website=MobyGames|access-date=2017-08-02}} 6. ^{{Cite web|url=https://www.gamespot.com/f-a-18-korea/|title=F/A-18 Korea|website=GameSpot|access-date=2017-08-02}} 7. ^{{Cite web|url=http://www.mobygames.com/game/macintosh/baldurs-gate|title=Baldur's Gate for Macintosh (2000) - MobyGames|website=MobyGames|access-date=2017-08-03}} 8. ^{{Cite web|url=http://www.mobygames.com/game/macintosh/red-faction|title=Red Faction for Macintosh (2001) - MobyGames|website=MobyGames|access-date=2017-08-03}} 9. ^{{Cite web|url=http://www.mobygames.com/game/macintosh/summoner|title=Summoner for Macintosh (2001) - MobyGames|website=MobyGames|access-date=2017-08-03}} 10. ^{{Cite web|url=http://www.mobygames.com/game/macintosh/descent_|title=Descent³ for Macintosh (1999) - MobyGames|website=MobyGames|access-date=2017-08-03}} 11. ^{{Cite web|url=http://www.mobygames.com/game/x-plane-8-deluxe|title=X-Plane 8: Deluxe for Linux (2006) - MobyGames|website=MobyGames|access-date=2017-08-03}} 12. ^{{Cite web|url=http://www.mobygames.com/game/x-plane-9|title=X-Plane 9 for Linux (2008) - MobyGames|website=MobyGames|access-date=2017-08-03}} 13. ^{{Cite web|url=http://www.mobygames.com/game/x-plane-10-regional-edition-north-america|title=X-Plane 10: Regional Edition - North America for Macintosh (2012) - MobyGames|website=MobyGames|access-date=2017-08-03}} 14. ^{{Cite web|url=https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/fa18-hornet-combat-jet-flight-simulator/id971855056?mt=8|title=FA18 HORNET Combat Jet Flight Simulator on the App Store|website=App Store|language=en|access-date=2017-08-03}} 15. ^{{Cite magazine |last=Breen |first=Christopher |date=February 1994 |title=Mac Gamers Are Abuzz Over F/A-18 Hornet |url=http://www.cgwmuseum.org/galleries/index.php?year=1994&pub=2&id=115 |magazine=Computer Gaming World |pages=42–43}}
