Nice surprise to see Ace Combat 5 in the PS2 list! Personally I preferred Ace Combat Zero but AC5 did have the best and most memorable story.

@Stokesy657 Maybe Japanese gamers don't like foul mouthed little s***-stains?

For a while I thought it would have the campaigns of all 3 Modern Warfare games rolled into one.

You'd think such a big game of a well established series wouldn't need such a marketing campaign.

Then again, I do consider it the video gaming equivalent of a Hollywood Summer Blockbuster so a big marketing budget is a staple part of it.

I was about to hang my head in shame at the thought that I was seeing the return of the juvenile days of the Nineties' Console War but at least the author redeemed himself later in the article.

Still, this all shows that online multiplayer has become such a integral part of gaming that having to pay extra for it is no longer deemed unacceptable.

Wouldn't surprise me if Ninty eventually jump into the bandwagon.
