TVG writes: "Aerial combat games are steeped in a history that goes all the way back to the mid-80s: from arcade games like After Burner and Top Gun to flight sims such as F-15 Strike Eagle and Gunship, this genre was once a valuable cornerstone of the games industry. These days though, After Burner and Top Gun remakes sit unremarkably on XBLA, PSN, and the iPhone, while flight sims are a dying (if not already dead) breed. What remains in your local game shop are the likes of Namco Bandai's Ace Combat and Ubisoft's HAWX series - games that are an inoffensive mixture of arcade and sim which, as a result, can come across as a touch bland at times".
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.

Hello everybody. We are very happy to announce that the PlayStation Store Halloween Sale starts tomorrow (24th October). There are some frighteningly good offers across a whole range of great titles but please see below for a full list of the content available.
Gonna get myself HoTD 3&4 me thinks. Kind of expected Infamous Festival of Blood to be on sale for Halloween, oh well!
Anyone in Europe who hasn't picked up Beyond good and evil HD yet HAS TO do so now. It was pretty unforgivable to not buy it for the full price but at that price you should have your console taken away for refusing to buy it.
