Here's my review
I am a hardcore flight simmer (beta tester for Microsft Flight Simulator) and also a part time pilot and I picked this up;
Firstly, as all of you may know, hawx doesn't replicate real flight dynamics nor missiles/cannons, its an arcade game much like Ace Combat.
Having said that, it does have a good variety in terms of levels (solid 19 mission campaign), a great library of fighter jets (40+). Although the level design is very basic (fly from one way point to another, escort, scramble, fly again, escort) and the plot is shit. I feel like a lot more could have been done since we dont have many type of arcade/flight sims on the console. They could have done a simple mid air refueling mini game or even landings and takeoffs (Jet De Go series on the PS/Ps2 had this) would have been great. And there's no ability to create your own missions so its a fairly shallow package. Maybe I am being harsh coming from a sim background but this could have been so much more.
