"Amazing"

I played the previous one (Balkin war) on PS2 , and when I got ace combat assault horizon I was sure 100% it will be amazing , and yes its amazing game, Like the game play , the graphics , and the aircrafts variety. though the story is not strong. but this game you must get and try. I was shocked when I read the reviews on the net ! I was expecting 9+ for this game , but the reviews are not fair ! I wish there would be more to come of Ace combat games on PS3 , and to continue this wonderful series.
Ace combat assault horizon has tremendous production value, nice cinematic presentation, solid multiplayer options.
It's Call of Duty in the air. That's the sell. That's what the designers were told to shoot for by their spreadsheet-watching producers. That's what New York Times bestselling military author, Jim DeFelice, was asked to target when lining up the characters and arc of the story. That's the bull's-eye marketing quotation the PR men are hoping the critics will pen: a triple-A quip, ripe for sticking on the poster. And, if Namco Bandai's focus groups were illustrative of a wider consumer desire, that's what the gamers want.
Ace Combat - the quintessential Japanese air combat series, positioned in that console-perfect sweet spot between After Burner's spasmodic arcade thrills and Microsoft Flight Simulator's nerdish reservations - has been unflinchingly repositioned for the Modern Warfare generation. From the gruff American pilots reminiscing about sorties into Iraq before locking reticules onto hostile Russians, to the slow-motion cutaway kill-cams that glory in each stylish takedown, it's clear that Assault Horizon is the product of a team of Japanese creatives straining to appeal to a Western audience.
