Heatseeker will strap you into the pilot's seat and deliver an exhilarating white-knuckle ride that'll have you clutching the joypad as you engage in face-melting 6G turns and fight against a seemingly-impossible amount of airborne enemies. And when you launch a strike, you'll follow your missiles as they ruthlessly home in on their targets via the Impact Cam. Delivering awesome cinematic 3rd-person camera cutaway scenes, the Impact Cam will reveal the results of your attack in all their devastating glory from all kinds of dynamic angles, - Complete with jaw-dropping explosions and smoke trails.
With missions across the US, down to the Caribbean, across Antarctica and into the Far East, it'll be high-velocity combat all the way that'll see you constantly switching from predator to prey as an enemy missiles lock on. Throughout the game's campaigns, you'll be proving your right to fly with the best. Are you good enough to advance ahead of your fellow pilots and stay top? Can you throw your aircraft to the floor, twist and turn and punch out counter measures as you pull as many Gs as necessary to out-manoeuvre the missile? Basically, are you good enough to stay alive?
