Reviews
Tom Clancy’s HAWX features intense dogfights, picturesque scenery and planes, and an instantly accessible arcade-style air combat experience. Although there are a variety of planes to choose from, each plane does not offer as much difference as they should while multiplayer options are also limited. However, Tom Clancy’s HAWX makes up through the quality of the barn and is a good aerial-combat game. The story line is largely inconsequential but it sets the scene well enough for your numerous engagements and keeps the game moving along at a fast pace in order to keep you interested. The controls for Tom Clancy’s HAWX are said to be easy to master as they are uncomplicated and works well enough to even easily issue orders to wingmen during a dogfight.
