Customer Ratings & Reviews

The modelling of the planes in this game is absolutely incredible, as is the environement. The control scheme and handleing of the airplanes are the best that I have seen in quite some time. The game lacks the realism of blackouts and fuel consumption and ammo capacity. I think that is ok since I was not looking for a flight simulator and it keeps game play simple and enjoyable for us non-pilot fanatics. The one thing that stoped me from giving it a perfect 5 was the lack of realism in the speed of the planes. Aside from that this is a really good flight action game. I am very happy I got this one.

This game isn't the kind of action-packed shooter game that you would want but for an airial fighting combat game you have to give it its props. It is really cool when you are flying because you can choose to have the view from the cockpit or from like 10 feet away. Its very complicated at first because you are trying to figure out how to do what but you catch on. I think this game isn't worth what they are selling it for but it is still a good game to have if you're in the mood for it.I have to say though, not the best game you're ever going to play. There are many planes and different missions that take you on a ride while flying high.

Ill start with flight characteristics. You cannot fly slower than 500knots in any plane and when you go from 500 to say 2000 there is absolutely no difference in flight except that its a little harder to turn. When you go 2000 it still seems your are going 500. Dog fighting is non existent as you cannot really even see the other planes unless your really close, even then it seems like a UFO. Unlimited missiles? Give me a break thats so arcadeish! There is 0 sense of realism in this game and it reminds me of a game I played for xbox back in 2000. basically the same exact game but with a little better graphics. Its really hard to explain all the things that are terrible about this game. Bottom line is if you like flying around shooting repetitive targets, puzzling nme formations that would never work on a battle field, and never being able to takeoff or land this game is for you. For ppl who want true simulation pass on this game as it is like every other terrible jet game you have ever bought for PS1 and PS2 and all the other consoles. Trust me, this game is just there for the company to make a quick buck of Clancys name!

Do NOT listen to DaveMiami. First there aren't unlimited missiles, and if you don't want a lot of missiles, which I don't see why you wouldn't, then play on elite difficulty. The gameplay is very realistic you CAN see the planes even if you aren't at close range. The story mode is very fun and keeps you interested, cool ranking system. The only problem is that the multiplayer versus has only one mode which is team deathmatch, I guess you can't do to much else since it is a aerial combat game. Overall a very good game.

Pretty good PS3 game. The plot is interesting and the graphics are incredible. Flying over Chicago and shooting down fighter planes was fun for me since I live in the city. The multiplayer is ok, nothing too great about it. There are obvious flaws with playing it you will soon see when playing against other teams. I love games like this and this one did not let me down. The only gripe I have is there is a flying mode referred to as Altimeter off you find 1/4 through the game. It supposedly helps you in dogfights with other planes but it's just plain obnoxious. I won't go into detail about it but the game is enjoyable with never using it.

Try the demo with an HD large screen, go through the tutorial and you'll be sold; you have a captain/wingman (sort of) providing voice prompts as you learn to control the plane, evade missiles and enemy fighters via maneuvers and flares, engage the enemy and take him down as well as attack tanks on the ground hiding among buildings, et al. Fly low and hear the concussion your jet engines make on the water's surface, fly between high-rise buildings. View your plane from another pilot's perspective if you choose. You can do all this and more; this is just the demo....

Being an avid gamer of mostly FPS's and sports games, i'm always up for some good old fashioned dog-fighting. While there isnt a whole lot of that to start (havent tried multiplayer yet) the game itself is a lot of fun. The GF has taken control of the game from me cause it intrigued her so hence this little review. It does take a little getting used to flying and getting the "yawing" right but once you are used to that then the game should be a blast. The story seems decent to start so nothing to complain about there. Like someone stated in a previous review, there are not unlimited missiles. I just seems that way on the "normal" difficulty. Great game, especially if you are a fan of the genre, go out and pick it up. Ive seen in it priced cheaper in new adds at other locations but i may see if BB will do a price match/adjustment.

To clarify, its a 1 person game up to 16 online, so its not have your friends over kind of game. You unlock new content (more planes & weapon packages via levels). It uses the trophy system & you are able to track the progress of your achievements within the game. The planes do jitter a little bit, but only if your really snobby do you notice this. There is a little bit of downloadable content, but you will find yourself doing online play after you beat the story mode. There are 3 different levels of difficulty, but you won't find yourself beating your head on the wall. There are checkpoints throughout the missions so if you die, not everything is lost.

Great jet fighter game even better with saitek joy stick.

good game i was really suprised normally jet games arent as fun as you would think but tom clancy proved me wrong

Definitely a solid game. The graphics are really amazing. Has a hard time conecting online & gets a little boring. Every mission starts you then shoot some planes or ground targets... mission over. Then the next starts the same.

When I got TC: HAWX I loved it, sure it's not like Ace Combat 6 or anyother in the series but it's still a great game never the less. The controls are tight and you can use the Sixaxis or DuelShock 3 controller for added fun. The Graphics are top notch and flying over real life landmarks is cool. The flight is swift, combat is nail bitting and the action is worthy of an oscar.

This is the game I've been waiting for.The graphics is awesome.I can't wait for the day it release

i must say as a ps3 owner finally a flight sim, if your into Ace Combat the game play pretty much functions the same so getting into the game will be easy.. the added E.R.S feature and the drifting etc definately add to the element and make avoiding missiles and see whos trailing you interesting. everything is crisp in this game and if your a recliner fighter piolet this game is 4 you.

Great game can get a better jet fighter game than this.

this game is the bomb i played the demo then knew right away i had to buy it. One thing though like the reviewer said below me is the speed is not so real like when your in low altitude it doesn seem like your going so fast but its alright. Its a very good game and i recommend it to any one who is a fan of air combat.

I played Ace Combat when it was on PS2 and liked it but it wasn't available for PS3 only XBox 360. HAWX is definately as good or better. Haven't played online yet, just missions.

I don't game, but I grabbed it as a game for my kids when I bought them a PS3 for xmas. They prefer shooters and RPG's so they didn't play it too much. I did a little and thought the graphics were pretty cool. Then again, I don't do too many flight games either. If you like war/flight games, it looks like are fairly realistic game.

GET THIS GAME! TRUST ME ON THIS ONE! THIS GAME IS STELLAR! BEST GAME I HAVE EVER PLAYED! BUY THIS GAME! YOU WONT BE SORRY! I PROMISE!
