PSX Extreme writes: "When it comes down to air combat, there is only one franchise that continues to stand out and that's Namco's Ace Combat. For far too long now, the undisputed heavyweight of air combat has gone virtually unchallenged. Sure, studios such as Konami and Sammy have tried their hand at the sub-genre, but their endeavors were rather unsuccessful, and they've yet to try since. Well, now Ubisoft is stepping up to the plate and they've brought the Tom Clancy brand with them for this one. Introducing Tom Clancy's H.A.W.X, short for High Altitude Warfare...umm, X.
HAWX takes place in the near future, set in the year 2012. Nations are becoming increasingly dependent on private military companies (PMCs) that boast a group of elite mercenaries with a different perspective on the law, and the ethics of air combat. Concerns that these PMCs have amassed too much power begin to pile on, until eventually one attacks the United States, and so begins a war that isn't against another country, but a self-sustained military."
Tom Clancy’s H.A.W.X. was a series that showed promise, but after 2010's Tom Clancy’s H.A.W.X. 2, all we have is backwards compatibility.
I remember buying Hawx2 back on PS3 after Microsoft bought exclusivity of Ace Combat6.
So to fill that dog fighting space I bought Hawx2, a very basic game that only had a gimmick of evasion that was overused if I remember correctly. I never even finished the game and still own it and my super slim ps3 so who knows I might pop it in one day and see if I can feel the need, I he need for speed.
