Ace Combat Flies Into the 3DS Danger Zone
Posted by James Newton
Top Gun high-fives all around
Namco Bandai has announced its action-packed aerial combat series Ace Combat is coming to 3DS.
The news came at the same Dubai conference that confirmed Tales of The Abyss 3DS is going global. Developed by series stalwarts Project Aces, little is known about the game yet, other than that the idea of shooting down planes in three dimensions is undeniably appealing, and that reckless behaviour will earn you a reprimand from your commanding officer.
We'll bring you more on Ace Combat 3DS as it flies overhead.

Ill buy it 101% for sure. It's a shame only the Sky Crawlers made it to the Wii from Project Aces. It's easely the best game of it's kind on the system.

Another series that i had in mind once i heard about the 3DS. I only hope it will be a brand new title and not just a remake or rehash of older titles.

I approve of this. If the soundtrack is anything like Ace Combat X, this game will be a monument for that alone. That's not to say the other Ace Combats didn't have phenomenal soundtracks, although the last game just came off sounding like more of the same. I'm a big fan of videogame music, and I'm not exaggerating when I say that Ace Combat 5, Ace Combat 0 and Ace Combat X are easily among the greatest game soundtracks I've ever heard.
