If you're on the lookout for a great flight game, look no further. H.A.W.X. 2 is the best game of its kind and will keep you wannabe pilots busy for weeks to come.

at first i thought it was silly because the missions seemed to be a bunch of training-wheels BS, but when you get to the second half of the game or so the missions begin to really kick your ass. needless to say the graphics, controls, and technical detail are OUTSTANDING, but give the missions some time. you'll see why it was somewhat easy in the beginning...

All I gotta say is that if you haven't played this game, get it, and explore the AESTHETIC HEROIN ADDICTION OF OFF MODE. OFF MODE.
PLAY IT.
So cool. You'll see.

Tom Clancy's H.A.W.X. 2 is really a case of more of the same. Fans of the original will enjoy the minor tweaks scattered around, but newcomers likely won't find anything to set this game apart from others in the genre.
While it may lack the grunt, confidence and sustained excitement to truly compete with the industry's big hitters, H.A.W.X 2's missile-ducking, bogey-outmanoeuvring nonsense is a rare thrill.
Unfortunately, the few high points in Tom Clancy's HAWX 2 don't do enough to make up for its myriad shortcomings.
Beyond missions that are a touch more variable and slightly better attuned to the story, it's hard to see where HAWX 2 improves over its predecessor. The first game struggled to rise above its own monotonous gameplay and this tedium is only amplified by a sequel - mired in the same monotony - that's been released only a year-and-a-half after the original.
In miring the action in a crayon-written plot and applying the brakes to anything going too fast, the screaming thrills it does provide are the exception, not the norm. [Oct 2010, p.97]
Loved it, the long campaign is purely epic, the multiplayer satisfying and the other modes are really good, great package overall with good graphics and great music. The variety of planes and equipment make it great and the challenges are fun to complete and overall it doesn't fail.

A Game which has had a lot of polarised reviews lately. We came to the conclusion that this was a massive improvement upon the original - which is no doubt a great step in the right direction should we see a third installment to the HAWX series. We also agreed that this game is not an Ace Combat 6 beater when it comes to the "awesome arcade fun!" category. But we also feel that an aircraft fan would not be disappointed by what he or she saw in this game. Full customisation and a VERY large hanger of planes make it actually a fine experience both online and offline. Our only criticism really was the annoying AI insists upon staying behind you spamming you with rockets and you find yourself unable to break away. If you try then you both just end up going around in circles all day along until you get bored and fly **** process then starts again!

I don't see how ubi soft thought it would be a good idea to limit the number of choices we had in the campaign. The first Hawx allowed you to choose what plane and what weapons pack before each mission, this story forces you to use what they want. If you replay missions that will change in some cases. The addition of custom weapon packs was awesome but the work you have to do to get them is a little much. The game play is alright but outside of the addition of the AC-130 mission this game falls short of what the first HAWX accomplished. If you want a good, cheap, entertaining flyer get the first Hawx.

The story is very boring, all the clichés you can think of with nuclear weapons and terrorists, etc. The game had potential, with its fine control and stylish graphics, unfortunately the missions are far too bland and go from being very easy to frustrating and difficult. An uneven game that could have been so much more than what it turned out to be. The first game was much better!

More of the same flying in freaking circles and having 50 missle load outs, 3 vs a ridiculous number of enemies, what a joke. Tired of these stupid Ace Combat copy cat games, somebody please come up with something more realistic and original. I guess I'll have to by Janes for my PC to get my fix.
