Apache: Air Assault firing up this fall

It's about time we get a heli sim! Hopefully a fighter sim will be next. As in a realistic one, not like that Hawx madness.

In soviet Russia, computers develop you and games play you.

wow, this is great news, we need more sims like this on consoles, i have yet to play a helicopter sim that tops the original gunship though, hopefully this will be the one.

and @muteki x hear hear!!! The nearest i have had to a tank sim since m1 abrams back in the day is driving a tank in world at war. Which was still fun but not hte same :/ I would love some great pc sims. Soooooooooo badly lol

16 single player missions :/ why dont they make games like they used to with living campaigns. I wish microsoft were still around lol. Saying all this really looking forward to this game, i hope they do the apache justice and make it sim like and not too arcade. My hopes are not that high because i thought il -2 was nowhere near as good on console as on pc. Hmmm fingers crossed!! This is on my to watch list!

I'm just glad someone is attempting to give us console people something to work with here. It may not be the best game ever, but at least it's something! It probably won't, but I hope this kicks off a trend of developers for these type of games to give us something for the consoles. More jet games, more helicopter games, more naval games, and would someone please give us a tank combat game.

dsc blackshark will remain the best heli sim,, then its lock on modern air combat :)

Shall we start a campaign to get a HD remake of Desert/ Jungle/ Soviet and Nuclear Strike for PS3 and xbox. I would happily pay £10 just to see the animation of the truck blowing up by the Whitehouse at the end of Jungle strike!

Agreed.

You want a real deal helicopter game, Go get DCS: Black Shark on PC.

Ahh, Just bring back Desert Strike.

Could be a winner if done well

THe original PC series was a nice, altough budgety arcade games. THis will be propably similiar, something like a more developed helicopter version of Ace Combat. Which is a good thing really. Any sort of attempt at making a real heli sim on consoles would result be pretty much unplayable anyway

Number of reasons I will pass on this. First, it will be a very simple arcade game if the PC version is any indicator. I think if you check how the PC version did it was nothing spectacular. Probably more BECAUSE it was an arcady type game then in spite of it.

A Russian company making a American Apache sim? No thinks.

ground attack? i wonder if you can be on the ground as a trooper or something

No PC? Damn I have a joystick for naught

Oh God...YES!

A HAWX with helicopters... and being made by the same studio that destroyed IL-2 Sturmovik. Oh god...

nice
