    Will check the demo. Been wanting a good arcade flying game since AC6.
    I would love a new Crimson Skies though (in the vein of High Road to Revenge for the original Xbox).

      Ace Combat Assault Horizon is a very good game.Not a lot of people get online anymore, but when there are, it’s awesome.

        I don’t know. AC:AH did not feel right to me. Might revisit it sometime.

          I really want a new Crimsons skies as well!

          See below article:

          Shadowrun creator Jordan Weisman wants to resurrect Crimson Skies.

          Weisman, who is currently at the helm of the Kickstarter-fuelled, already funded Shadowrun Returns,
          wants to revive the Dieselpunk air-pirate series – and he’s already
          talked with license holder Smith & Tinker about doing so.

          “I’m hopeful that’s another property that I can approach soon,” Weisman told Shacknews. “I’m in discussions with them about that. I’m hoping that we can bring that back to life as well.”

          Weisman and partner in crime Dave McCoy created the Crimson Skies
          universe, which is set within an alternate history of !930s America. It
          was first released as a board game, but an arcade flight game published
          by Microsoft Game Studios for the PC in 2000, and another for the Xbox
          published in 2003, won a small but loyal following.

          According to Weisman, Crimson Skies “kind of fell into the same void” as
          his first attempt to get a new MechWarrior game off the ground after
          securing the license in 2007.

          “That era and that story is one of my favourites that we came up with
          and I’d love to be able to go back and tell stories in that world as
          well,” he said. Nothing will happen on that front, however, until after
          Shadowrun Returns, currently nearing $1 million raised, is out the door.

    The worst demo I recently played. I love Airplanes, Jets… etc… but this is an insult.

  • Fred

    Hate to admit it, but I actually enjoyed this. Did *not* enjoy the bad 90′s music, but did enjoy the demo….
