What are the best flight sims out there?

FS:X if you want realism, and have the system to handle it.

Check out http://www.simhq.com for some good reviews.

For WWII, IL-2: 1946 is pretty much the pinnacle. The current 1946 release seems to have everything released in the series so far with the most up-to-date engine.

For modern sims, Falcon 4: Allied Force is fantastic, and the "Wings Over {Insert Place Here}" series gets a lot of kudos. I have not kept up with Lock-On so not sure what the current feelings are towards it.

For online play against hundreds of human players, try Aces High for $15/month.

And for just tooling around the skies, there is Flight Simulator X.
