Manufacturer's Description
It is 23 September 2010, and on a small island in the ocean that divides the global superpowers of Osea and Yuktobania, an entire military base is on red alert. Early today, the 108th Tactical Fighter Squadron was scrambled to intercept an unidentified aircraft, but the entire squadron was ruthlessly decimated. As a fighter pilot in a newly formed squadron, you are called into action to protect the nation of Osea. As you take to the skies, the story begins to unfold…

Ace Combat 5 features a multitude of gameplay modes and offers players the opportunity to fly some of the most advanced aircraft ever built with over 50 licensed, playable planes. Taking the controls of these aircraft, players will be pushed to the limits, diving down canyons, flying through mountain passes and bursting above the clouds as they avoid missiles and hunt the enemy.

One of the exciting new features in the game is Wingman Command, which allows players to provide in-flight instructions to their squadron while carrying out group attacks. Additionally, radio communication with the squadron gives players the ability to listen-in on conversations, adding to the realism and intensity of battles.

On top of the action, Ace Combat 5’s engaging storyline is revealed through a series of high quality, in-depth cut scenes and several hours of spoken dialogue. The game unfolds over 30 wide ranging missions, with campaigns ranging from high altitude pursuits, air-to-ground combat and aerial dogfights to produce the ultimate in high flying entertainment.

I can only really find one thing bad with the game at the moment and that is how difficult it is to get a copy of the damn thing. I originally ordered it from Amazon new with the site telling me that it was going to take 1-2 weeks for the product to get here. 1-2 weeks turned into 4-6 weeks so I decided to cancel. I wentr to play.com and numerous other sites but alas nothing there. Eventually I settled for a 2nd hand copy of the game and began to play. Amazingly the game didn't finish when i thought it would. It seems to just keep going and going. Alot of the reviews on here complain about the cinematics being too long and so on but this is no boring pointless cinematic. The story is compelling and the characters intriguing to the point of wanting to be with them and actually fly alongside them. There is a depth to the game through the story line and so on that is unrivalled in any of the Ace Combat games or any other flight simulator to date. For those among us who are AC4 veterans, you will notice one or two constants in the game. Two I've spotted so far are that your wingman Nagase is the same voice and name from the airliner you have to assist in AC4 "First Officer Nagase" and that there are one of two references to "north point" made by the president of Ocea. I relly do love the ability to chose not just your own plane but the plane of your other pilots too as well as the suggestions they make. The graphics are to say the least amazing. They do in part resemble AC4 but they have their own stylishness that simply reaks of quality and shows the time spent on it is alot. You can even get close enough to an enemy of friendly place to perform the old TOP GUN "keeping up with foreign relations trick". Ob viously you cannot make the rude hand gestures maverick and goose do but you can at least see the pilot you're flying against before dropping back and blowing him out of the sky. There are even heat waves coming from the engines when left to idle on minimum throttle. Amazing, incredible, pretty damn cool are some of the words i can use to describe this game. Get me a thesaurus and I will look up some more!  Comment | Permalink | Was this review helpful to you?

The graphics are superb, the flight and weapons control are very obvious and natural, the missions are good and varied....very much like the previous offering (AC4). However, with the exception of the definitive improvement of ground graphics detail, this game is not that much different to AC4. Don't get me wrong, if you don't have a combat flying game, you won't be disappointed with this. If you already have AC4....is ACSL worth the £'s? Probably not right now...wait until the price goes down. There are indeed a few down points from the previous title. It is not uncommon to run out of ordinance during a mission. If this happens in ACSL, well, just tooling around in an impotent MIG 35 is not my idea of flying combat. In AC4, you could fly back to base, land , and re-arm, an option not open to us armchair wannabe aces. My other main beef with this game is the moronic chatter from some of the wingmen which definitely detracts from the 'seriousness' of flying combat situations. It is incessant and irritating. Other than that...great game :) Have fun.  Comment | Permalink | Was this review helpful to you?

WRONG! Ace combat: squadron leader is some how significantly better? its faster, the planes are much more responsive and handle like a dream (not too arcade..ish, but it doesnt try to be a simulator)and whats more, its gorgeous. the missions are also very varied, in one mission you,l be defending your home base, then youl be flying formation over a large crowd and then youl be thrust back into action against an entire fleet of ships. but probably the best feature in this game is the wingmen. you really get a sense that your not alone up there, they constantly talk to each other over the radios (some of which is pointless) but for the most part it adds to the atmosphere. my only problem with this game is when you get asked a question by one of your wingmen and have to respond yes or no with the d pad, this takes away from your concentration which isnt good when your 30ft of the ground. fortunately this doesnt happen very often and isnt too much of a problem. over all, ace combat: squadron leader is a briliant game and well worth every penny of your hard earned cash, for now this is the best flight game on any console... until the belkan wars release????  Comment | Permalink | Was this review helpful to you?
