Tom Clancy’s HAWX

Add a comment

Tom Clancy’s H.A.W.X is an arcade-style flight simulator which is fairly simply to jump in start flying and picking up those trophies.

I bought it to play online with a friend so we can do the mission in the Co-op mode. This is a lot of fun, what we did not expect was to have the game as a public game. As we were playing, others from all around the world would join us and be on out team. Although this was unexpected it made the game even more fun and helped complete some of the missions.

I don’t own any other flight games so I wanted to get something that was good fun and not too hard to play so I could play it every now and then.

The game is very arcade based with quick mission information and those little noises each time you choose something on the menu. I do find myself hitting the button to skip all the menu but I do occasionally choose a different plane from the recommended plane. I have not played the game enough to have the option to choose different weapons yet but I’m sure it won’t be long before I go up a level as the first few missions are pretty easy to complete. However there was one mission that kept us occupied. I am not 100% sure which one it was now but we had to defend a plane from air attacks from all directions. It took us a few attempts to get through to the end as it kept being shot down.

This game is OK not the best one out there by far but it is fun to play and as I only paid £10.00 including the delivery I am more than happy with it. If it were full priced i think I wold have been disappointed to of bought it.

Thank goodness for demos :)
