I can finally give my unbiased, calm, and collected opinion:

This game fucking rocks.

• "War sucks, fighter jets rule" anime-like story? Check.
  
• Kickass weaponry? Check.
  
• Smooth controls? Check. (FFS, Bamco, let me remap pitch/roll/yaw freely...)
  
• Shit going down while the sky bellows soursweet Latin lyrics in epic opera-like melodies? Check.

GTA VI got nothing on this. I'll maybe reconsider GOTY if you give the Ocarina's remake the same pass we gave FF7's.

Yeah... It's really sticking with me.

I sold it short in my previous post. The story isn't perfect, but the high points are SO HIGH that it's hard to overstate how much I love it. I didn't think a shooty-bang game where I fly a plane really fast could be so... affecting.

I again implore anyone who hasn't, pick this up. Wait for a sale if you're on the fence. If you see it through, you won't be disappointed.

It's seriously competing with Big Walk for my favourite game this year. If you had told me that a month ago, I'd have called you a lunatic.
