The COMPLETE History of ACE COMBAT

[@reueljagbir]

You forgot to include that AC series is known for its music as well (Especially among the community). The 2020 Tokyo Opening Ceremony included a song from AC5 is proof of that.

[@Apocalyptico100]

Bro, I can hear the castanets playing in my head right now! (from Ace5) 🥰

[@iceLordgeneralSpeaking]

With the ac3 and ac4 soundtracks being the best...bc ac3 had the Crystal Method on it

[@ItsDatCajunStuff]

I can't get enough of this series. I replay several of these games every year. The stories are surprisingly compelling, the missions have just enough variety to keep you motivated, the controls always feel perfectly responsive, and the music is consistently incredible. Bring on AC8.

[@brichan1851]

Ace Combat 3: Electrosphere is still one of my favorite PS1 games. I got the 2 disc Japanese release, which had a lot more story, and more missions. It may have had lower sales, but it still stands as my favorite Ace Combat games. Under rated and under appreciated.

[@keness4768]

Does it have English text in it as is, or only with a fan translated rom?

[@brichan1851]

@@keness4768 Everything is in Japanese. Hard to understand. But it’s a more complete game and can be played to the end, no problem… provided you have a Japanese or modded PS1.

[@michaelwillis3565]

100% agree bro, this was one of the top games I played on the PlayStation

[@APerson-ni1gb]

Plus it started the detailed flight physics like Actual inertia and energy management smh

[@ARIXANDRE]

Absolutely one of the best, most solid series in gaming.

[@definitelynotboromir]

Couldn't have come at a better time - I just downloaded the newest release, but with Ace Combat 4 as my only prior experience into the series.

[@christopherliston1060]

Hope you’ve been enjoying it and if you haven’t already figured it out you NEED to play 5 and Zero, those are both essentials

[@orlandoclark8062]

AC5 and AC7 are my favorites.

[@keness4768]

What I wouldn't give for an ace combat 8 that is truly next gen.... bandai/Namco, make it happen and proceed to take my money.

[@nicolasvaleriano5329]

i cant belive they called ZERO a SPIN OFF GAME!!

[@bluewardog]

It's more standalone proto dlc

[@riversword2660]

I call it a prequel instead qwq

[@ZipperWheel84]

i looked for this video years ago. We had a ps2, and by the time the third gen rolled around everything was changing so fast. I remember people talking about the graphics of ratchet and clank on TV, because everything was coming so far. I think there was a moment in the 2000s so many of us missed that separated the conclusion of the 90s from where I find myself looking up now and sighing. Maybe just growing up does that to a person, but growing up with a dead history, it feels like we were the first of another age to remember a memory and not the experience. Everything becomes corrupted, clones of clones until im someone else. 15 years. 15 years.

[@onehitsword6800]

Sony must enjoy losing sales with the PSN requirement blocking it's games in some regions

[@michaelcoulter1725]

That's what happens when you have corporate assholes take over a company the f*** s*** up for no reason

[@jake192]

What about an honorable mention to Project Wingman?

[@Apocalyptico100]

Oh yes! I had a lot of fun with that game, was such a surprise! You could feel the love from the devs while playing, hope they can make a sequel someday.

[@Blueflag04]

Its not from the same company so why should they talk about it?

[@APerson-ni1gb]

@@Blueflag04because it would be an Honorable mention from a Gamer that Played the “Company made games” who went on to develop his own ?

[@RahmatHidayat-fv9xs]

No talk about project nemo?

[@Little_Skyz]

AC6 started it all for me. AC7 made me fall in love with it again, and im very impatiently awaiting AC8

[@docblade3270]

Ace combat 5 is THE BEST: best story, best characters, best planes and best missions! Second place to 4!

[@APerson-ni1gb]

Yes except no multiplayer and no real flight graphics like 04 had

[@orlandoclark8062]

My favorite franchise on PlayStation.

[@AHeroInHell]

Love Ace Combat. Distant Thunder is my favourite :)

[@roachxyz]

The ps2 ones were my favorite.

[@AHeroInHell]

Agreed.

[@geoffreyletch8121]

I loved Ace Combat 3 on the ps1!😮😊

[@joshuariddensdale2126]

The only ones I've ever played are the original on PS1 (yes, I'm that old), and Ace Combat 7 Top Gun Maverick Edition.

[@TheMoonShepard]

This seventh games campaign is at least 4hrs long, but I loved it so much I put in almost 250hrs How it makes you and your squadron feel like mythical heroes of old flying fighter jets is unrivaled, soundtrack, set pieces, and a surprising amount of lore, all wonderous

[@crono_8398]

AC 5 is my fav. I play it every year. I think its tragic none of these games are available. I got AC 5 in a free dlc with AC 7 but it isnt for sale otherwise. 🤷‍♂️

[@rogerbowen5753]

4 and 7 were the ones I enjoyed. I do wish, however, that they'd kept it a bit more real. The final missions in the campaigns were ludicrously OTT and a pain to try and complete. You could say that there has been an Ace Combat movie, they just called it Top Gun: Maverick! If there is another then I may give it a whirl.

[@nicolasvaleriano5329]

there's the anime lol Area 88. kinda came in before AC and i bet it served as inspiration for the mercenary theme of 1, 2 and Zero

[@bbgamer537]

Can't wait wait for it to come out for Switch x3

[@AntiRep31]

Why can’t these gaming companies all get together, like cod, battlefield, ace combat, all of these prominent war game making companies, or even ROCKSTAR too, (I’d like to see all ideas for a solid war game) and make a game that is EXTREMELY well put together, flight controls, character controls, weapons, vehicles, possibly different roles to play as drivers and shooters or whatever for campaign multiplayer integration for a storyline.

[@demonreturns4336]

like I get what you're saying and in an ideal utopia type world where money and greed doesnt exist it would be possibly but...... yea that's like saying how come mcdonalds, burger king and wendys don't come together and make the best burgers and fries it ain't gonna happen, won't be enough money proposition for all entities involve to even make that viable

[@backfireproductions4362]

Ace6 is Still the PHOTOREALISTIC Juggernaut and Best ‘Feel Of Flight’ Even Today which I guess is the Only Strong Point it has which Made it Lowest selling !?

[@desperado8605]

Garuda Team all call signs report in

[@ParZIVal19D]

We need a new one and not just on PlayStation.

[@evolancer211]

Calling it a simulation is a bit of a stretch

[@Apocalyptico100]

It's like calling NFS Underground a Racing Sim! XD But yeah, I guess it's a cultural thing, people are used to call games like AC as flight simulator, it's not common to call it "arcade airplane shooter" or something.

[@Blueflag04]

It never was a sim

[@mrandrossguy9871]

@@Apocalyptico100because it’s Not really Just an “arcade plane shooter thingy” it’s More than hat but less than a “full blown boring sim”

[@Qtip855]

No options for take offs and landings in AC7😖 Made it a big NO for me😞 I know it’s NOT a Simulator but really? Landings and taking off options would kill the arcade feel? Not as long as you can pile 50 missiles on your,ahem..fighter.🤣

[@Apocalyptico100]

I feel ya! It's a small detail, but it adds to the feel of being a pilot. Tho I recall you can take off and land sometimes (or am I crazy?!)

[@twocontradictions]

​@@Apocalyptico100you're not crazy, there are missions where you can take off from carriers or airfields, and a mid-air refueling minigame if you're using a non-carrier capable plane.
