Ace Combat 2

Ace Combat 2 is released in 1997 for Playstation, and later again in 2005 for PlayStation 2 as part NamCollection to celebrate Namco's 50th anniversary. Ace Combat 2 continues it's predecessor's arcade style gameplay, but with numerous graphical improvements to both the models and environment. Notably, Ace Combat 2 was the first game in the series to incorporate Ace Pilots, distinguishable from ordinary pilots by being labelled on the HUD under various aliases. The player can unlock twice as many aircraft as Air Combat, ranging from the Multirole F/A-18E to Stealth Bomber F-117a Nighthawk. While the story is very basic, it lays the ground work for later games; similar maps and Aces are featured in it's successors. Depending on the player's actions there are three different endings.
