Smoothest Ace Combat yet

The flying is amazing. Ace Combat 8 is the most fluid the series has ever felt, and every turn, roll, and dive feels responsive and satisfying. It's still genuinely challenging, though, so smooth doesn't mean easy. And it isn't just a retread of the previous games; it feels like a real step forward. Highly recommended.
