H.A.W.X Awesome Graphics, Difficult and Lacking Game Play
I liked H.A.W.X because it has awesome graphics and is an entertaining game, with lots of enemies, combat locations and realistic jet fighter sim. If you like Jet Fighter games, this game is worth playing.
What I did not like about the game is that the "Flight Assist" On/Off mode. In Flight Assist On, you have limited control of your plane. You can't control the throttle, you have High and Low thrust. If Flight Assist is Off, you only have one view and it's a very strange, external view of your plane that's hard to control and even harder to see what you plane is doing.
Another thing I don't like about H.A.W.X is the way the game assigns your targets to attack. It does not assign the "best" or "most important" targets, it just assigns targets. Often times it's difficult to reassign the important target during a battle. Sometimes I would loose the level, simply because I could not lock the enemy target I needed. Basically the game cheats.
Assigning your wing to attack targets is just as difficult too, because you have to have them locked on first, before you can assign the target to your wing. Sometimes, you and your wing are assigned the same target, while other targets are allowed to slip through and attack the objects your protecting...like I said, the game cheats.
