The game play is a bit difficult, even on the easiest setting, and the control buttons are different from most games, but once you figure out what to push and when, it is a good game. If you are a diehard pilot (or wannabee pilot) this is great experience, and there are enough hints and help (Icon to locate your target stays on your HUD) it is well worth the money.

If you're like me and a big fan of Air Combat 6 you'd be tempted to try this game. But it's false advertising because this is not really an Ace Combat Game. They've added missions for helicopter and bombers. They've integrated a Close Combat mode for attacking enemy fighters. You basically just lock on and shoot. When fighting Enemy Aces, it's the only way to get them. You try your best to get really close (markers light up on the enemy fighters as a prompt), press A and B to lock on and then you're right on their tail and can blast them out of the sky. You're locked in like a mini-arcade sequence. It's simplified to the point of a turkey shoot. The graphics and lay outs are excellent and there are plenty of great explosions. It quickly becomes really monotonous and repetitive to do the close maneuver. It's lock on and shoot, lock on and shoot. The missions seem to just go on forever. Just when you think you've cleared them, here come more. Adults and kids with no jet flying game experience would probably have a blast. At least until the monotony wears on them. But believers in the franchise want a real AC game. Hopefully that will be provided with the upcoming AC7.Read full review

I feel like most of the negative reviews were expecting a flight simulator like the regular Ace Combat games rather than over-the-top action. If I were training to be a fighter pilot, I would look to the regular Ace Combat games, but this spin-off was meant to be an arcade style shooter with more extra custom option/features than your usual After Burner game. Quite honestly, I’m bummed that the Ace Combat franchise stopped making more of the Action Style Shooters like Assault Horizon, so here I am in 2021 on Ebay trying to reclaim my fond memories. Even tho this was created for the Xbox 360, it still holds up today in graphics, gameplay, soundtrack, and design. Definitely worth adding to your Xbox collection!

Superb graphics, fun story-line, responsive flight controls and awesome additions (like helicopter side-gunner missions). Totally glad this game is in my collection, but you've gotta love being in the cockpit else this game won't be for you. If you enjoy flight simulator games then this one will not disappoint. It's great fun for a fair price and we pop in a couple times per week just to get that fix for an action packed sortie ;)
I purchased this game because I enjoyed the demo a few years back. I have been sucked into the game since I've had it. The number of aircraft given to fly, and this different scenarios make it continuously entertaining. I haven't played a air combat game this entertaining since Windows 98. The graphics are sweet, and the dogfights gain complexity and difficulty as you progress. It is a bit acradey, but its the best console flight game I have ever played. Worth the money.
