Focusing on the Japanese version here. It's a pretty ambitious title and definitely the best of the argininal trilogy. It's the first game in the series to give us full jet controls but what it even more important than that is the story.

It's the first Ace Combat game to give us one and honestly, quite a good one. Based around choices and different endings which somehow still has not be replicated in newer titles. And the futuristic setting is also really neat, giving us new types of fighter jets and scenarios never seen before.

It's a good game, but it's slow gameplay definitely doesn't make it an exciting play, but it is 100% worth trying out. Even the American version, though for story Japanese is for sure better.
