    Hawx Gets the Boot.

    Thanks Ubisoft for shipping a fabulous coaster.


    I spent the better part of an afternoon trying to play this disc in my 360. 
    I thought something was wrong with my Xbox but after trying every game in my library plus a rental game I realized this game was just a dud.

    I ended up going out to get some bomb waffles with my girlfriend.

    The half a star was for Ubisoft inadvertently making me enjoy a beautiful day outside.

    Hawx gets my middle finger salute for ineptitude.

    Emill.

    I couldn't even finish the demo, so that score seems very fine to me...


    Sad to see them ruin a potentially great idea like that - if they really wanted to mix Ace Combat with Blazing Angels they could atleast have taken the good parts...

    Atleast the levels looks good.. gotta give them that - or whoever they bought the data from...

    ahh he is reviewing ubisoft and not the game aparently
    and nets he only had trouble with that game not every game

    so what im a going to give ½ a star for some of the games that have failed with start up then i would be bussy writing over 30 short reviews griefing about it

    but its good to hear that you had a good day Emill.

    It's the developers fault he struggles to even play the game. If I struggled to even get past the title screen for every game I bought, I would of given them half a star as well.

    I dont agree with giving the game half a star because your disc didnt work. Dont give the game a review at all since you havent even played it.

      Well I liked it... 0

      Despite the lukewarm reception this game has gotten, it exceeded my expectations and I enjoyed it.  Good:100 MILLION DOLLAR SATELLITE!? Graphically, the game is great.  Both the aircraft and the landscape look terrific, and I really wonder what satellite technology they used for the ground...Ranks, the game has a great ranking system in place, each kill gives you experience points which is totaled at the end of each mission.  Each level you earn unlocks new missions, aircraft, and weapon load-ou...

      A Blast to Play, but not worth the RRP 0

        Tom Clancy is the man for near future military action. If his name is on the book/games/film you can tell it will be a least way half decent. Does H.A.W.X. match up to this standard? H.A.W.X. is a arcade style flight combat game from Ubisoft Romania, those fine fellows who brought us Blazing Angels. And this shows, as the game handles very similarly. The A button is fire missiles, B is cannon, right trigger is accelerate and left trigger brakes. Oh and entering the Konami code allows you...
