Prior to the latest release, I would rank the games like this (I have 100% completion on all of these, some of them more than once, but have never been interested in the multiplayer):Īce Combat 5 (2004, PS2) : The all-time best, by a significant margin. This is because the 'Strangereal' setting for most of the AC games was bizarrely detailed and deep for essentially an arcade flight game with a light military sim veneer clearly the alternate-Earth, near-future sci-fi elements were appreciated by a lot of people. The Ace Combat series had a surprising amount of representation on these forums as well several entries in the 'SDN Nations' STGOD series had people reusing setting elements in their nation designs, and the classic HAB (Heavy Armor Brigade) threads had a few references to the AC superweapons as well. I just find the classic AC game mechanics and presentation very compelling, and it's one of the few games I am happy to play in short bursts as well as binges. This is a bit of an anomaly, as I generally prefer RPGs (of various kinds from 'shooter with mild RPG elements' through to 'classic turn based') and open world action (other favourites would be things like Planescape Torment, ME2, AC:Black Flag, Prey, Lost Odyssey, DA:Inquisition, Dead Space series, Bioshock series, GTA:SA etc).
