Ace Combat 6 coming to the 360 - November 13, 2007 (Timed Exclusive)
I don't think it will be a big console mover... but dammit, it looks pretty and sounds like a lot of fun!!
"In the living battlefield, the player can experience the massive scale of group combat where multiple armies from both sides, intensely battle through missiles, gunfire and explosions. This creates an action-packed and interactive style of entertainment, unlike battles in movies, which are scripted and not interactive.
High-tech control of mass NPCs - not only are there many NPC's but also each NPC has a unique feature. They act systematically, set up units, and try to accomplish a number of different missions. Those missions simultaneously occur in real time. Imagine the real battlefield. The success or failure of a mission changes the complexion of war, as if it was a living creature.
Also each NPC has its own character with its own name. You can feel the satisfaction of a successful operation or the desperateness of defeat, which will give you the realistic feeling of fighting as a unit. The player also has the option of talking directly to a NPC. If you have helped them in a previous mission, they would give support to return the favor. It gives you an interactive experience."
