Always nice to see a new flight game, although keeping it feeling fresh throughout is always a challenge. Should be good though, especially if it has co-op missions.

HAWX? Thats some air-punching cheeseyness right there.

When did Tom Clancy start making Saturday morning cartoons?

Tom Clancy doesn't make much of anything with his name on it, other than a few gold-embossed-cover macho cockwaving airport novels during the 80s.

He doesn't make money from Tom Clancy games anymore.

Ubi purchased the right to use his name but not pay him anything further last year. It also means he won't be involved in future 'Tom Clancy' games, but then it appears he only really allowed them to use his story ideas in the past and that was the extent of his involvement.

I'm sure Clancy would've taken his ideas as far as he wanted anyway. It's nice to see an author take games seriously to the point they start-up a company to make games, and i loved the first R6 game and the book.

He might not make money from any further titles released but I'm sure he'll be able to dry his tears on the $60 million that Ubisoft paid for the rights.

Yeah, I doubt it really bothers him. Not everyone can have artistic integrity...

Eh.. you forgot that they take bombing missions from Ghost Recon members, it's a little like End War where all Clancy guys and girls meet up I guess.

What is it with Ubisoft and 2012? Perhaps the destination they are going to hit stems from the memories of Desmond Miles...

I usually get a hard-on for all things Clancy, but this leaves me strangely flaccid.
