Ace combat 8 announced

Namco should make a Ace Combat Remake Mega-pack once they are done with AC8.

These gems, many of which I have missed shouldn't be trapped on old systems.
 
While I am pretty excited for AC8, I still do hope that they will do a "WW2 but in Strangereal" type of AC. I would love to fly some WW2 planes, shooting down Hurricanes and Mustangs with my Bf109.

I hear Electrosphere holds up pretty well, but I'd love for a full fledged remake. It would make sense given the timeline they're advancing to.
 
Meanwhile Ridge Racer flounders in limbo (or 8 canceled back in 2019 for switch at least). I love Ace Combat but Namco give your other Strangereal franchise some love!

One small thing I'm hoping out of this new entry is some better joystick support.

AC7 would only read joysticks that were combined as one device, so for my thruster and main stick had to combine them together as a single virtual controller...then the game has no great way to do bindings, so you're stuck with editing the ini file manually, mods that help, or Steam Input bindings.
