Saw this yesterday, wish these games came out on PC.

Definitely gonna pick this up. Although It does seem a bit arcadey, hopefully it'll be a lot of fun.

Seems like yet another H.A.W.X. to me... while I don't really like hardcore sims like Il-2 or Lock-on I really liked F-22, F-16 series (Novalogics) they seem to be the best compromise between arcade and simulation ;) too bad they are so outdated by now

Don't you DARE to compare this to HAWX..

This is a whole different kind of game that doesn't have it's plot ripped off from some self-repeating books that Clancy writes..

Yep, you are right. There is no comparison with H.A.W.X.S

...but I like Clancy's books

I had Ace Combat Belkan War and it was shallow to say at least ... can't really imagine a fighter with 50+ sidewinders

HAWX is the only game on PC I can compare to it

Lionus · « **Reply #8 on:** June 30, 2011, 05:31:00 PM »

And HAWX can also have umpteen missiles..

exactly, I find that dumb, because even arcadish F-22 Lightning 3 was much more fun to play even tho you would fire like 4-8 missiles or drop few GBU's thru whole mission yet still it was cooler than simply flying shoot'em all style

they should give player opportunity to take-off, land, refuel fighter in air and reduce loadout to something more realistic

you should stick to MS flight sims then

http://twitpic.com/5i259l yup, new footage that gives me hope..

Bones · « **Reply #11 on:** July 02, 2011, 08:51:41 AM »

I never had a chance to get MS Combat Flight Sim

although I really enjoyed F-22 (whole series) and F-16 (both from Novalogic)

It looks really good, gotta love that focus view when firing guns

is this coming on PC too ?

Lionus · « **Reply #12 on:** July 02, 2011, 02:35:23 PM »

Naw, PS3 and Fixbox only. Ace Combat has never been on PC, unlike HAWX.

metalnick · « **Reply #13 on:** July 03, 2011, 10:44:14 AM »

Well if you guys want something a bit more realistic I'd say pick up Over G Fighters. A friend on XBL recommended it to me and I've been having a lot of fun with it. Probably as close to a sim as you'll get on the 360 at least.

I think this vid gives you a good idea of what to expect. But if you guys do play it change the controls to Realistic because arcade is just utter crap. Not trying to hijack the thread but you can never have too many flight combat games, right?

Looks like you can have 2 SP Weapons! In the first Vid, the F-22 Fired XAM4s (The missiles that fired at 4 targets at once) and QAAMs (The missile that looped around the Su-33).

FarShot · « **Reply #16 on:** August 12, 2011, 01:36:50 PM »

Despite the fact that it's unrealistic, it's freakin' epic. I love the fact that they've decided to go real world for this one and I hope they continue the series in that direction.

CyAn1d3 · « **Reply #17 on:** August 12, 2011, 08:53:49 PM »

id get it.

now if only they would integrate THAT and tanks into Modern Warfare it would be friggin sweet.... wait... thats Battlefield

deadthunder2_0 · « **Reply #18 on:** August 12, 2011, 10:28:16 PM »

Does anyone recognize the "Invasion of Gracemeria" theme in that vid?

Lionus · « **Reply #19 on:** August 13, 2011, 12:39:56 AM »

There were some other references to earlier AC games there too
