Nothing wrong with Ubisoft games.  They no longer use that stupid copyright protection software and they do publish some very good games.  I'm looking forward to HAWK, hope it plays as good as it looked in the trailer.

I wouldn't have high expectations as his name has been attached to all kinds of mediocre and low-class games already.

Yes, the original RB6 was a good game. I hope that with the opening in flight sim genre something as good will come out, but as I said I'm not expecting it to be a spectacular game.

no kidding, after Rogue Spear everything went to pot..

CLancy and UBIsoft seem to be all about consoles now, with the PC stuff being more "on the side"..

Im all for more and new flight related stuff.. but Im not holding my breath.

I predict...it will be available only for consoles.....and therefor it will not be a flight simulator.

it's supposed to be an arcade style flight sim, along the lines of the Ace Combat franchise.  Slated to be both a PC and console release.

What the hell???? Were those supposed to be American troops? If so why are they flying a French fighter, and if they are French why weren't they surrendering?? :D

PS3, Xbox360 and PC...PC always sucks hind tit these days to consoles. Especially when it comes to games from most of the large gaming houses. Oh well my son will probably get a kick out of it around Christmas.

UBI didn't publish the orginal RB6 series. Red Storm did but they were bought out by UBI. After that the series went to crap. Turned into the typical console first PC an after thought production.

UBI has a very bad rep for rinse and repeat toss crap out to make a bunch of sales and forget about the last product they released. IMO this one looks like another Xbox special.
