I agree with Monk, my sentiments exactly...they are apples and oranges. and if you want to talk about story-line, BOP is a history lesson and AC, well it is fantasy...and so far, I believe they've done a pretty good job...wish I had played AC6!!!

Al I see your picture and it reminds me, Ace Combat games allways have the old Tomcat even though only Iran flys them now, because its such a well loved plane with still many fans. So I'm always wondering why they don't create a game version of the never built Super Tomcat 21 as a semi fictional plane. Think F14E Strike Tomcat.

That bird is a is work of art...I hope they still have this for the new AC game...just to even sit and stare at it for a while...I just wikied the Super Tomcat 21...didn't even know it was conceptualized...would have been pretty cool...I have a small collection of WWII and Modern aircraft and some ground units...the F-14's are my jewels

Yes, Its a crime that the Super Hornet was chosen for the US navy instead of this. Its capabilities would have blitz that of the Super Hornet abomination. The F14 21's development would have been cheaper than the Super Hornet aswell.

Found this a little while ago revealing some details on Assault Horizon's multiplayer mode.

You guys might want to consider "Over G Fighters" for the Xbox 360 if you are interested in modern air combat.

The game is much more realistic than Ace Combat, and was developed using "LOMAC" (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lock_On:_Modern_Air_Combat) as a starting point.

If you can get past the silly Japanese rock music and the cheesy dialogue, this game is amazing.

Ah good to know

I just didn't enjoy AC that much, and while Over G did get fairly poor reviews, I thought it was the superior game of the two. I'm considering buying a PS2 just to play all the other flight "sim" games by Taito. I just wasn't sure that people would know about it, as it really isn't a popular game.
