The new medal of honor game has a great apache level. You are front seat with no control over the chopper but it's an amazing ride. At one point you hover and go into Flir and it's just like that YouTube vid Bobby posted. Almost feel sorry for the poor guys after you fire the cannon. A second or so later they are vaporized. Worth £35 just for that one level for me

Well thats just what any cannon does. Check out a ship mounted 30mm gatling gun. Anybody who can afford the ammo for it would put it on the top of his list.

'Apache: Air Assault' (ALL) Gets Release Date - New Screens
by Rainier on Aug. 30, 2010 @ 1:34 p.m. PDT
Apache: Air Assault is a helicopter combat game, where players control a variety of lethal Apache attack helicopters outfitted with cutting-edge military weaponry. The goal in Apache: Air Assault is to prevent terrorist attacks by raining down destruction from above in the world’s most volatile warzones.
Apache: Air Assault features more than 16 multi-stage missions involving air and ground strike operations off the coast of Africa, the mountains of the Middle East and the jungles of Central America, each meticulously created using high resolution map data from real-world satellite photography. Apache helicopters are some of the most sophisticated combat aircraft on the planet - the player gets to fly multiple variations of them, each with their own extreme firepower and highly-detailed damage modelling.

The game can be played based on the player’s tastes - Arcade Mode allows players to easily pick up the controls and jump right into the combat. The Realistic mode showcases the real depth of the title, where the dedication to realism and precision shines through. The local Co-op Campaign Mode lets two players team up in the same Apache with one as the pilot and the other as the co-pilot in a joint effort for a truly authentic combat flight experience. For those that want to go even further, Apache: Air Assault includes competitive online multiplayer matches such as Team Deathmatch, Ground Attack, Capture the LZ, and Ground Strike. http://worthplaying.com/article/2010/8/30/news/76540/

.

Co-Optimers have been vocal on both sides of a raging Apache: Air Assault debate - should the game allow each player their own chopper, or only as pilot/gunner combinations? Okay...it's not really a raging debate...not much of a debate at all... And yet developer Gaijin Entertainment has answered the call nonetheless.

This November up to four players will be able to fly their own Apache-branded helicopter in 13 unique online-only co-op missions. For couch co-op fans, splitscreen support for the gunner seat is available in the 16 single-player campaign missions. It's an odd combination of online/offline and campaign/separate modes, but we'll take it.
