Tom Clancy's HAWX is one of the more enjoyable flight combat games available on this generation of consoles (and PC). The flight system is tight and intuitive for first-timers and the advanced system gives an extra level of control for advanced users, including a drift turn system that has no basis in reality but is very enjoyable. The campaign is a decent length without dragging on, missions are varied enough to keep your attention and the persistant leveling system that carries over from single player to multiplayer gives extra motivation to go back and get more points in each mission.
Bottom line: At launch this game was a must-buy for flight enthusiasts. Now, with sub-$20 pricing there is no reason to pass by such an enjoyable title.

Each level you earn unlocks new missions, aircraft, and weapon load-ou...

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...
