Pilot the most advanced planes in wars that take place in the near future.
Tom Clancy's HAWX is one of the most interesting
plane games that has reached our PCs. In it we will form part of a military squadron leaded by powerful fighters, and we have to clear the sky of enemy planes.
As it always happens when
Tom Clancy writes the scripts, it is full of reliable information and situations that are plausible. In this case, the action centers in a rather near future in which the
military corporations will even have control of the security of the countries. Thus, you (and your squadron) work for one of the big companies and you have to gain your bosses confidence and make your enemies fear you.
For this purpose, you will have a series of planes:
F-16 Fighting Falcon, FA-18E Super Hornet and F-14 SuperTomcat, real steel birds armed with all kinds of weapons. In the first missions we will learn the best way to defend military areas, bases and cities so as to be able to progress in the game.
At a
graphic level Tom Clancy's HAWX is really good, managing to have a very smooth transition that will make it seem as if the horizon isn't reforming all the time as we move (as happens in other games), the only pity is that they haven't changed the graphics between the different models of a same plane. Nevertheless,
handling the planes is simple yet effective, but this won't make the missions any easier.
Note: The
demo allows to play one mission, see the games main customization options and contains the tutorial.
