I don't know Colony, but agree completely wih Falcon.  Super-true
flight simulator for the F-16.  Takes a while to learn how to "fly"
it, but so does the real thing.  So realistic, several writers of
military fiction have taken to using it as their introduction to the
experiences of the US fighter pilot.

Two other "must haves" (my opinion, of course):  Balance of Power and
Sim City.  Both are fun (although Balance of Power starts to get a bit
tedious as you search for the "right" answer), and both are _really_ 
enlightening.  Of course, Balance of Power loses some of its impact
with the end of the Cold War...
