Hawx - Flying Games for Xbox 360

Hawx is a flying games for Xbox 360 released on March 3, 2009 by Ubisoft. Hawx flying games for Xbox 360 is one of the best flying games for xbox 360.

Tom Clancy's Hawx is an Air combat game so if you are looking for a flight sim, this isn't it.

So, regarding to the gameplay:this game uses a level scheme to unlock new aircraft and weapons load outs. Ever kill and achieving certain feats gives the player experience. Luckily the levels come fast and new aircraft abound. The aircraft themselves are beautifully rendered. Most craft can hold several hundred missiles. This is a good thing since Hawx is a target rich environment and the player will be constantly tasked with prioritizing which targets to take down and in what order.

Since no one flys alone, the player has two wingmen who love to clutter the radio with chatter. They typically are talking about the plot and the mission, but will occasionally during a dog fight announce things an aware player had already seen a few minutes earlier. Not to say that the wingmen are useless, they just talk a lot. These wingmen can be given simple attack my target or defend me commands. My only real issue is that they seem to move at mach 10 whenever they feel like it and perform bizarre maneuvers to get back on you wing. While they will take down opponents if left to their own devices, it is best to take on important objectives yourself and let them cover your tail. Trying to fly an escort mission in an AV-8 makes a mission a challenge, where a Mig-29 makes it much simpler.

Hawx - Flying Games for Xbox 360: graphics. You will be flying over a variety of terrains and locations. Different times of day will skew color palettes, weather can affect visibility with clouds, and targets can be obscured by smoke. The terrain is incredibly detailed and looks wonderful even at close range...after you have unwittingly crashed your jet into it. Aircraft and missile contrails have that "puffy" look to them and flying into the sun is a great way to blind yourself.

Hawx - Flying Games for Xbox 360: Flight Mechanics. Even rookie pilots will quickly be flying low level and diving into "bandit" infested dog-fights. After several "training" missions which are used to introduce the player to the different aspects of the game the game introduces the "Limit OFF" system (or OFF) in which the game is played from a zoomed out third person perspective. This mode allows players to "slide" their aircraft around, effectively making them much more agile (makes dodging missiles easier too). I recommend using OFF mode for evading missiles and getting your nose around on your adversary and then going quickly back to regular view mode.
