It’s been long enough since I last played an Ace Combat game that I can remember only two things about Ace Combat. 1) This Ace Combat 7 cutscene featuring what appears to be a wavy JPEG of a dog, which the Twitterati all thought was an exasperated animator’s joke, but which I understand is actually a homage to a real staff member’s dog who died before the game’s release. And 2) you can ‘powerslide’ by wilfully initiating a stall, which I think might actually be a move from Tom Clancy’s H.A.W.X.
Delivery Must Complete sort of builds a whole subgenre around the thrill of powersliding planes. How does it do this? The clue is that “DMC” is also an abbreviation of “Devil May Cry“. Here’s a trailer. I promise you there will be no further confusing/upsetting references to dogs.
