    Hawx

    Have to ignore the silly spelling of the game, cos it looks like it might be a cracker (HAWX?? a marketing masterpiece of ridiculousnes if ever there were one...)

    I think I need this

    Re: Hawx

    The demo hasn't won me over, is the full game much better?

    Re: Hawx

    Demo played......boredome set in

    Can you not move your head in the cockpit to change view? I cant find the option to do so, and therefore I'm not enjoying it.

    I HATE external flight, I just hate it... but this game thrives on it.

    I will persevere later, but while it looks stunning, what's with the 160 rockets! 160!!! per plane./

    Arcade Em Up!

    Yes. Assist mode on, switch camera until cockpit, then use camera control stick to move your head.

    The graphics are nice, but I hate just about everything else about it

    cheers Kal. I have to hold down a button on my joystick or keyboard ot move my head "in cockpit" but Isoon got used to it. Quite a clever thing actually, cos it's the SAME button as changes camera from internal to heads up, to external chase view. Click it and cange camera, hold it and use joystick hatswitch to pan.

    Sadly it wont move to set positions, only a whole movement to the furthest degree, BUT it allows me to target my missiles on the opposition faster.

    I've played through the missions a few times now, and it's growing on me. I can't fly fast jets through cities though at all.....

    Would LOVE free flight.. but need the game in full for that. Am tempted to buy it actually. I think it's got something going for it.
