Tom Clancy's HAWX (PS3)

This game is a breath of fresh air, it might not be the best game ever, but offers something different and is actually one of the first good games in it's genre for a long time. The presentation is very good, but it's quite hard to get used to and not everyone will be able to play it. The design on the case is nice, as is the disc. The box is also very good, not having the 'tight' grip seen on FIFA 09 that meant the discs would sometimes crack. The presentation of the game is very good, with the simple menus that are easy to navigate. There are plenty of modes for everyone, but somethings need to be unlocked which is very annoying. ...  Read the complete review

Hawks is a flight fighter simulator game for the PS3. It is totally different from all the games I have played before. The game has good graphics and fast game play. The game is based on you being an elite fighter pilot that is hired by a privet security company. Your missions range from attaching missile basses to protecting oil fields. You will work with 2 wing men to defend you against enemies. You need quick reactions as the game play is very fast and it is hard to track emermies fighters. The game has 50 different fighter jets which all have a range of weapons. Different plains are better for different levels. You will need to ...  Read the complete review

An enjoyable if unspectacular flight shooter, Tom Clancy's H.A.W.X offers high-octane gameplay in a straightforward single player campaign and a fair and competitive online mode. Taking to the skies as fighter pilot David Crenshaw, you have - once unlocked - a plethora of planes and weapon combinations to choose from, offering huge replayability in both the campaign mode and online play in a game that's simple to pick up, and a welcome challenge to master. Its campaign mode is relatively short at 19 missions, with many only serving as training sessions for the much more frantic and testing online play. Flying one of the many planes is very easy to ...  Read the complete review

As there is no dedicated PS3 flight simulation software Tom Clancey's Hawx comes extremley close to filling that gap. The game has easy flowing menus and is very easy to navigate for a new player which is what you want because all you want to do is play the game. There are two main modes to the game these being online mode and career mode. The online mode is pretty lame as there are hardly any players online at any one time and I think the only time I have played online is with a friend on an arcade battle. The career mode revolves around a storyline which at times gets very confusing but is basically about a group of pilots that leave the military ...  Read the complete review

This flight simulator is set in the near future and you are a fighter pilot working for an independent security company. The missions take you all over the world in an array of amazing aircraft with an equally impressive armory. The gameplay is maybe a little too easy at the start and I only really failed missions early on by messing about and plummeting into the ground whilst trying to fly under bridges. However, the futuristic twist becomes apparent when you are trained to use advanced turning techniques for dog fighting and this is more difficult to grasp. It does make the game more interesting and once the skill is mastered, it's awesome. The missions are ...  Read the complete review
