The changes to the Ace Combat franchise are hard to miss when playing through the first half hour. Whether this form of change to the genre was needed or not, Assault Horizon does breathe some new life into the genre with fuel fumes that can set your brain on fire.Īce Combat: Assault Horizon (Xbox 360, PlayStation 3)
Ace Combat: Assault Horizon has been said to attempt to Call of Duty-fy the genre in order to revitalize it, which has left a fair share of fans with giant question marks floating around their heads. Yet most games of the arcade console variety - Ace Combat 6: Fires of Liberation included - tend to focus on just locking onto enemy targets at range and letting loose a volley of missiles.

The combat flight sim genre is in a pretty good state these days.
