Queadlunn-Rau Posted March 3, 2008 Posted March 3, 2008 Fontlines: Fuel of War http://www.newegg.com/Product/ShowImage.as...War+PC+Game+THQ The picture is 6th from right, doesn't that look almost like an YF-19? The official sight lists it as: The Su-48 is the Red Star Alliance’s newest jet fighter, one evolution past previous swept wing design experiments. http://www.frontlineswar.com/?page=vehicles Just wondering if anyone has played with this toy in-game?

Holocause Posted March 5, 2008 Posted March 5, 2008 Now if you wanna talk Macross influence on gaming, in StarCraft, the voice of the Terran Battle Cruiser sounds distinctly like Cmdr. Gloval. I could swear some of the fantasy aircrafts taken from the Ace Combat games look strikingly similar to some Macross aircraft.
