So, I'm sitting in my room, goofing around, and getting some demos on my PS3. I'm looking through all the crap (which was most of it), and I find a game called Tom Clancy's H.A.W.X. My first though was, 'Oh great, another FPS Tom Clancy game...' Then I read the description. Basically, it told me H.A.W.X was a online capable flight/shoot simulation game.
If you don't know, I'm not really a shooter fan. I'll play it if someone offers, but I'd prefer an RPG. I like flight sims even less. So now I'm like, 'Oh yuck, a flying shooting game full of 8 year olds.' But, despite my bias, I decided to at least try it out. It wouldn't kill me or anything, so I downloaded and installed it. Then I started playing.
Next thing I know, its an hour later and I'm screaming at the screen after narrowly dodging a missle just to crash into a building. Not that I wasn't a good pilot (in fact, I think I was rather good), the game is just a little more difficult that I imagined. What got me though, was that as I screamed at the TV, I was having the time of my life. The game is awesome, and changed my outlook on flying-shooter sims.
So, I looked up the game to see how I could improve my flying (and stop crashing into buildings). I found out that H.A.W.X is not only already out (which I think I knew already), but its also for the Xbox 360 and PC. So, if any of you want to try it out, go and get the demo. Its not gonna kill you to try it if you don't like those kinds of games, and if you do, then this will just make you love them more.

See you guys in the skies.
