Joystiq impressions: Ace Combat 6

Joystiq.com writes: "Did the Ace Combat series ever look this good? I have to admit -- flight games were never a genre I enjoyed. However, one look at Ace Combat 6 on Xbox 360 changed my opinion instantly. It looks jaw-droppingly gorgeous. If it weren't for the constant threat of war, we'd love to simply fly around and observe the environments. From afar, the world below looks photo-realistic. Remarkably, the world retains a great deal of detail even when flying up close. Namco Bandai has an incredible technical achievement on their hands: realizing that every building in the city below is actually rendered deserves applause."

I never could get into these games on the PS1, 2. Hopefully this generation Namco can give me a reason to like this Arcade flight sim.

All I can say for now is that it looks really good.

So after Blazing Angels (decent) and Over G Fighters (so-so) we finally get a AAA flight game? Sweeeeeet. Nice job, Namco.

I may actually buy this one, and I usually don't like flight games...in fact, the last 2 flight/combat games I bought were Hellbender and Descent, if that gives you an idea of how long it has been.

So, MS, how about a 360/Windows compatible flight joystick...and for that matter, what about bringing Flight Simulator to the 360?

Love the demo this game is really fun and hard to learn.

Balance6142d ago

the demo of this game rocked i can't wait to dogfight people on xbox live... BTW i heard that there is going to a special version of the game that ships with a flight stick, hope that is true.

Interesting. The Unsung War is my personal favorite of the series.

DafunkyRebel2062d ago

NANI!!? Wait does this mean AC5 is getting remastered good laws my dreams came true

Abnor_Mal2062d ago

Damn, now that's what I call call a bonus. Loved Ace Combat5: the Unsung War.
Can't lie but would have loved to play Ace6, but since it's a Xbox exclusive, that's not going to happen.
Will definitely be pre ordering the game soon. Didn't read the article, so I'm hoping this is for the physical copy of Ace7 and a code for Ace5.

really looking forward to this game. Haven't played Ace Combat in quite some time

These games set in 2015 offer up clues and, sorry, but it's not looking good."
