    If you’re looking for some of the best graphics that the Xbox 360 currently has to offer, Ace Combat 6 certainly ranks near the top along with it’s strong single and multi-player offerings. It may not be the flight simulator that many people may have been hoping for, but it doesn’t detract from being an enjoyable arcade shooter. Highly recommended. Read more

    The Ace Combat series is one of the oldest and most revered franchises still around from the days of Sony’s original console offering, and for good reason. Over the past five iterations Namco has crafted one of the finest and most enjoyable flight games currently available on the market. Ace Combat 6: Fires of Liberation continues this trend of excellence, but for the first time in franchise history it does so on a completely different console. This brings the amazing... Read more

    Namco is a name that has been around since the beginning. It has taken genres and platforms into its sweaty palm and sure enough, out have come some of the most fantastic titles we’ve ever seen – from Pac-Man to Tekken, and beyond. Read more

    The Ace combat series is great, i think that it is the only good aircraft game. Plus I love the fact that you can costomize your aircraft online and off. But this game does have its faults, most of the game is either shooting down bombers or getting caught in a tornado just spinning in circles until it becomes boring. But even with that it is still a really fun game. My favorite aircraft is the F-... Read more

    Yeah though its a good game, high def and lots of pretty pictures there is on real ache in the game.... Can you guess what it is? That's right not even as many planes as are in ace combat 5 let alone zero. I think this is a major issue along with no ability on xbox live to set up "wings" or Squadrons or when online playing to assign yourself or others to wingman positions so you can protect your buddy. These for a 360 game would have seemed a must. I realise the lack ... Read more
