Nice find!

Good Find :bravo:

What's not to like? I think the best thing is that it looks done now, but we have months to wait before release. So hopefully they use the time to make it as good as it can be. Tick, Tock.

ATARI should pick this cancelled game up as their new aerial combat project after Heroes? :atari:

A little modern mixed with vintage. Nice beefed up Harrier and the double Avenger gatlings on their version of the A-10 looks nice!

Yeah, it's good to see some Heroes action in-play. I still hope you will be able to pan your camera around where ever you want to?
My squad mates online are not too sold on Heroes. They keep saying it's just an updated Blazing Angels 3, cause the controls are the same from Blazing Angels 1, and especially with the "look to enemy" feature. But what do they know and I bet they already have it pre-ordered!:lol:

I do like the P-47D-23 razorback canopy in the video clip, over the bubble top later variants.

I'm pretty sure there'll be optional control schemes, as HotP did. But yeah, the look to enemy feature seems exactly like BA. Worrying..dark:

Look to enemy was in HotP, as well as half of all air combat games so I don't think you can say "like Blazing Angles" because of that feature. And, personally I thought Blazing Angles 2 was horrible compaired to HotP. So unless something goes wrong I would expect HoE to blow it out of the water. I'm telling you, HoE and IL-2 should be the best air combat games to date on any console, ever.

I agree, I just bought an original Xbox solely to play HotP, and it's reminded me of its greatness. I'm pumped for the sequel now. Then hopefully it's Heroes over Korea next!

HOE a BA3, Impossible! As Riceball stated, Hotp is many, many times better than BA2.

There will certainly be "Pro" controls, since there was that option in HOTP, though I personally prefer the Arcade since I can pull off some otherwise very difficult maneuvers with it :P

This game is gonna be awesome--hopefully anyway. If this game flops, well, I don't I'll be more disappointed in my life. though that won't happen.

Anyways, the look to enemy is actually pretty useful, and has been in many other flight games including HOTP. With it, you can tell exactely what your opponent is planning while in a dogfight, though it does require some dexterity with the controls with the changed camera

Yes, yes, we all know that Blazing Angels is a pile of , and most aviation games have the look to enemy camera. It was an example of a bad aviation game, hence my friends teasing with BA 3.

Anyways, my point was I want the option to have my head on a swivel, and not rely on the game to point everything out to me. That gets BORING! What makes it more fun for me is the hunt, and being smart enough to look for bogies, indentify them, and then KILL! Sooooo, just more options to create your own mix of simulation features, or if you prefer arcade features.

Ace Combat 6 has a nice balance of a zoom in look to enemy camera, along with the head on a swivel camera.

Point taken. And I'm sure we would all agree.
