Far Cry 3 And The Stranger In A Strange Land Our week-long Tom Clancy’s H.A.W.X. giveaway continues today. Up there you can see the Thrustmaster flight stick you could win – along with a copy of the game – just by impressing us with your creative writing skills. If you think you’ve got what it takes to write like Clancy – and, frankly, with the number of people already writing books under the Clancy name, it can’t be too hard (just kidding!) – then head over to the original post for more details.
Tom Clancy’s H.A.W.X. brings a slice of air combat to the man’s near-future techno-political fare where private military companies earn the wages of war. It was released just a couple of weeks ago and, thanks to Ubisoft, we’ve now got some copies to give away, bundled with a sweet flight stick from Thrustmaster. Find out how to enter beyond the jump.
The launch trailer for Tom Clancy’s H.A.W.X. shows how heavy the air-to-air combat action is going to get, with an attack on the White House and a missile aimed at Air Force One.
Ignore our earlier post. These are the Australian dates for Tom Clancy’s H.A.W.X. demo. If you have an Xbox 360, you get it today. Update: For “today”, read “this evening”. If you have a PS3, you get it tomorrow. If you have a PC, you get it in two weeks (Feb 26). Got that now?
A downloadable demo for Tom Clancy’s H.A.W.X. hits the Xbox 360 on Feb. 11, Ubisoft announced today. The demo will arrive on the PC and Playstation 3 on Feb. 26, in North America.
With Ubisoft’s flight sim with an arcade-twist nearing release, the publiser is starting to roll out videos showing off a bit more of the game’s details. Like the experience system, seen in the vid above, and the cockpit view, seen below.
As part of Ubisoft’s 3rd quarter sales report, the company posted their release schedule for the first three months of 2009, filled with iPetz, Jace Power, and a heaping helping of imagination.
It’s nice to every once in a while pick up a controller and play a few missions of Ace Combat. With Tom Clancy’s HAWX, we’ll have a fresh face in the aerial combat lineup and it’ll be most welcome on PS3. Behold, some new screens showing a few of the aircraft you’ll be flying. galleryPost('hawx1009', 3, 'HAWX Gallery');
Ubisoft’s new Tom Clancy air combat title is looking damn good. I got a chance to sit in on a demonstration of Tom Clancy’s H.A.W.X. – High Altitude Warfare eXperimental squadron – earlier today at the Games Convention at Leipzig, and what I saw was a very exciting title that could finally give the arcade jet fighter crowd a much better reason to dust off their flight sticks than another load of downloadable pink airplanes courtesy of Ace Combat 6.
That’s not saying that H.A.W.X. Won’t have its fair share of DLC, as the presenter at the session indeed mentioned that the game, which is already set to ship with more than 50 aircraft painstakingly rendered down to the cockpit, will be getting even more aircraft in the way of downloadable jets down the line. I asked if they would be getting pink ones, but no one seemed to get the reference.
