PSPs going M.A.C.H. speed

[pspcrazy]

Wannabe pilots will soon be able to get their kicks on the PlayStation Portable because Sierra Entertainment has announced it is publishing M.A.C.H. in North America, Europe, and Australia. The game, which will be released in the US on February 20, is currently being developed by UK studio Kuju Entertainment.

Sierra describes M.A.C.H. (Modified Air Combat Heroes) as a flight combat and racing game set in the future. After a government plan to patrol the skies with unmanned aircraft goes awry, the planes end up being sold on the black market, where flyboys scoop them up for underground competitions.

Gamers will be able to outfit their jets with performance-enhancing parts and weapons, both of which will be needed to outrace and eliminate their opponents. The game boasts four game modes, including multiplayer for up to eight combatants over the handheld's ad hoc wireless mode. Multiple gamers can also do battle with just one copy of the game; M.A.C.H. supports game sharing.

The game may seem familiar to some. In addition to sharing the name of a Commodore 64 game, keen-eyed gamers may have seen M.A.C.H. listed on online retailers Web sites.

M.A.C.H. is rated E10+ for Everyone 10 and Older and will retail for $39.99.

wow dis looks like da best pilot game so far

[pspcrazy]

Yea it looks quite fun, im just hoping itll be like ace combat X, that game was awesome

I like the look of this game - the career mode is what attracted me to it
(compete in tournaments and progress from rookie through pro, ace, elite to combat hero).
I hope it's like Ace Combat too, with a little more depth (career mode ) - got to be good

What im hoping ti will have is some sort of infrastructure game. Then again i doubt it will come out since infrastructure is so rare in games now and days. A better storyline would be welcome as well, any compelling storyline can make a game 100x better.

Infrastructure only seems to come out in games world widely known such as MGS,Rainbow Six, Medal Of Honor etc. they only put Infrastructure on games that are popular, and if they rich enough and feel they are lucky then they will put infrastruture on games not popular.

That one screenshot looks pretty amazing, I just hope that the gameplay controlling the Fighter isn't too fast or else it'd be like impossible to play lol. Looks interesting though 586MPH seems pretty fast although I don't know what speed that is in KPH (our metric system in Australia)

Air combat....AND RACING?
Hmmm seems like itd almost be like a flying Burnout game then, eh?
Of coarse burnout is a good bit of fun so that could be cool. Arent they coming out with some other flying game? maybe it will be more free form and just fly around and battle. Maybe it was supposed to be an Ace Combat game? er maybe Ive just been dreaming again.

[pspcrazy]

Now that yuo put it that way it sounds cool A flying burnout would be hot lol. We will know how good it is when it comes out, ill keep my fingers crossed for a burnour style racer lol.

This looks better than Ace Combat, in my opinion. I can't wait for it.
