Developed by the Project Aces team, ACE COMBAT ASSAULT HORIZON intensifies the franchise, escalating combat to the next level with aircraft that are literally torn apart, spewing oil and debris across the sky. Players will engage in combat across the globe, dodging skyscrapers, and turning their enemies into fiery supersonic debris in both single player and online multiplayer. Never before has combat been so fast and in-your-face.
I haven't played HAWX...but this one is PURE AWESOMENESS!!!!!!!

Loved Ace Combat 6. The range of fighters to choose from and the missions variety was excellent. Can't wait for Assault Horizon.

I'd say Ace Combat has the edge. It's much more challenging compared to H.A.W.X series. Although, H.A.W.X 2 had a slightly higher difficulty level compared to it's predecessor, it's not it the same league as Ace Combat. Ace Combat 6 had some fantastic missions, which required you to use the right set of aircraft and weapons load outs. Also, it relies on how you work as a team with your wingmen. It's a shame these games (Ace Combat) aren't available on the PC. Heck, it's shocking to see Ace Combat 6 was a 360 exclusive, when all it's previous titles have been on the PS2.
Update: Demo is up now on XBL. WOOOHOOO!

OMFG! Ladies and Gentlemen, we have a clear winner here. The game is way beyond awesome. We have 2 missions in the demo; The one in Miami which is essentially the Jet Fighter mission and the next one is in East Africa for the chopper mission. Believe me when I say this, the demo is only 400MB in size and gave me almost 40 minutes of gameplay, with high quality of cut-scene footage. Now that is how a demo should be, unlike those shitty 1.5GB demos which barely last you for 15 mins. Any-hoo, for the game itself, well the first mission introduced us to the most exciting feature in this game; the Dog Fight mode. Hitting this mode allows you to go head-to-head with the enemy for up close action. The camera zooms in brilliantly to let you feel the heat of the action. During this mode, you can shoot via your machine gun or perform a radar lock and use your homing missiles on 'em. Enemy aircrafts were SU-35's and were rather easy to take down. The chopper mission was very long. The controls felt a bit awkward, at start, but gradually became easier and fun. This mission was mainly to take out the ground enemy resistance, which included AA Guns, ground soldiers with RPG's, tanks, enemy choppers and some vehicles. Graphics look really good. Explosion effects are splendid. You can actually see a cloud of smoke just gushing towards your wind-shield as you blow up an enemy aircraft. It's strange, but your aircraft magically recovers from a heavy damage and has no damage indicator at all. Controls were slick and easy to understand. Weapons could be switched between normal and special which includes single and multiple homing missiles and Air-to-Ground missiles. I hope there's more depth in aircraft selection and weapon load-out, like the previous title. But this is definitely the most exhilarating experience I had with a flight arcade game in a long LONG time. Full game...release NAO!
