Ace Combat fans, were you surprised that this series about assault jet fighters turned out to be incredibly shonen anime (in a GREAT way)?

Wait it's cheesy anime shit? I was under the impression it was Call of Duty military shit. I'm so down with it if it's cheesy over the top shit. Where do I start?

Ace Combat 7 is a great entry point and it's only 20 dollars on PS4 currently
You can check the opening to see if you're into that style
Ace Combat is one of, if not my absolute favorite game series of all time. Can't recommend it enough if you're a military or anime fan (or both) or if you just want to play some games with a great story, magnificent music and tight gameplay/controls.
Oh I've heard of the story being gutted, but I did NOT know about the fan patch. I need to track this down asap. Well OP I think you convinced me to replay AC7 again.
AC7 has a great soundtrack but so disappointing. In the missions where that one gameplay mechanic shows up, the game nosedives and never recovers. AC0 is def the best one in the series. AC4 and 5 are right behind it though, one of my reasons to own a PS2
Oh no you don't. *points at avatar*
AC 0 = AC 4 > AC5 > AC 2 >>>>>>> AC7 >>>>>> PSP Games >>>>>>>>> AC 3 (West) >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> AH
No idea about 6 since Xbox Exclusive. AC 7 was a serious disappointment.
Nothing touches 0 and 4. Its the pinnacle of story telling. And well 5 just has the charm with Nagase, Bartlet, Chopper, Pops etc. Its the holy trinity.

Got a good deal into 7 before dropping it. I don't hate it, but it wasn't impressing me. The music, as usual, is great.
I've played 4, 5, 0, the 2 PSP games, the 3DS game, and Assault Horizon. I have 6, I just need to play it.
The only big point where I stray from popular fan opinion is I think AH is good. It's different of course, and I wish it were set in Strangereal, but I still like it. I wish the other AC games would flow like AH does. The seamless transitions between cutscenes to loadout to gameplay and back again are wonderful.

I thinl ac3 came in two disks in japan but they didnt bothered for the us release so they cut all cut scene and story and a third of missions to fit in a single disk for the west
Ace Combat 3's Japanese version has a translation patch available and with it, it's an amazing game that is worth checking out.
Just booted up Ace Combat 5 on my C9 and holy crap the image quality is C L E A N.
Time for the Razgriz to take flight again.

So thanks OP. Just got into the series because of this thread and it's my kind of cheesy. Hell yeah.
