Ace Combat 4: Shattered Skies

Namco?s high-flying aerial combat series is getting ready to show what air superiority really means on the PS2.

Namco?s latest version of Ace Combat already looks poised to have air superiority on the PlayStation 2. The highlight of the preview version was the incredible amount of detail: Sharp-looking planes whisked over colorful landmasses populated by animated ground forces at a speedy frame rate. And staying true to the venerable series, the game's simple controls enabled players to perform twisting barrel rolls, kamikaze dives, and intense dogfighting maneuvers with ease.

Ace Combat 4 will have all the usual flight accouterments. In 18 missions, you?ll fly sorties that range from destroying hidden bases and defending allied troops to annihilating all enemy aircraft. You?ll be evaluated after each mission, and depending on how well you fulfilled your objective, you?ll receive a particular amount of cash to spend on weapon upgrades or new planes. There will be a total of 20 planes to purchase?ranging from the A10 Warthog to the Mig-29?each with their own strengths and weaknesses.
