HAWX is exactly what you want from a flight combat game. It’s instantly accessible without pandering to novices, it leaves it up to the player whether they want to use a more advanced control scheme (but cleverly incorporates the two), and the missions are varied and exciting.

Ace Combat may finally have worthy competition

May 28, 2008

From a distance, HAWX could be mistaken for last year's excellent Ace Combat 6: Fires of Liberation. As we got closer and actually started playing, the level of ground detail and overall polish exceeded the already impressive visuals of Ace 6, with far more skyscrapers reaching for the clouds and tons of clutter choking the oft-ignored terra firma. Once the shock of the clean, smooth imagery wore off, we plunged into the gameplay, which left ... » Read Full Tom Clancy's HAWX preview
