Ace Combat : Assault Horizon Announcement

Best news in ages.

Trailer indicates some sort of 'rebirth'. Who knows what.

Shows

• dogfighting within a city centre among skyscrapers.
• manning a turret in a chopper.
• button prompts in 'quick time' events.

Take that, HAWX.

Razgriz

Whenever history witnesses a great change, Razgriz reveals itself... first, as a dark demon. As a demon, it uses its power to rain death upon the land, and then it dies. However, after a period of slumber, Razgriz returns, this time, as a great hero.

Amidst the eternal waves of time
From a ripple of change shall the storm rise
Out of the abyss peer the eyes of a demon
Behold the Razgriz, its wings of black sheath

The demon soars through dark skies
Fear and death trail its shadow beneath
Until men united wield a hallowed sabre
In final reckoning, the beast is slain

As the demon sleeps, man turns on man
His own blood and madness soon cover the earth
From the depths of despair awaken the Razgriz
Its raven wings ablaze in majestic light.

Dogfighting

Not involving dogs but fighter aircraft. Not real life but video games.

I want an air combat simulator for PS3 now. I miss my Ace Combat on the PS2 but now they've run off to the 360.

HAWX doesn't really cut it for me but hopefully HAWX 2 can improve on that. It's really fun watching the replays to see my aircraft swooping around raining destruction and doom on the enemies. However, it's potential was not realized.

Some hated it, but the boss fights on AC were quite fun, but quite hard. The arcade-ish style was fun, unrealistic or not. HAWX isn't realistic either, anyway.

Ace Combat 6 should have been on PS3, I would have definitely bought it.
