We have frowny face news, kids. Tom Clancy's HAWX has just been grounded, oxygen tanks have been removed from the flight cabins and pilots have been told to go home ... until 2009. Ubisoft just confirmed that their flight combat game HAWX will not make its September release as planned, experiencing a delayed release sometime between January and March of 2009. That also means no airborne pew, pew, pewing until 2009 ... shucks.

Ubisoft just announced today that HAWX, Ubi's attempt to fly into the flight combat genre arena, will reach super sonic speeds and fly into retailers this September. And that's a surprise to us. We were under the impression that HAWX would be fueled up for late Fall, either October, November or as late as December. But it's a good thing, because fighting for freedom can not and should not wait. Thundercats HAWX GO!

By now you've undoubtedly seen the trailers for Beyond Good & Evil 2, Prince of Persia and Tom Clancy's H.A.W.X., but more than likely you've only witnessed the Ubisoft library in standard def blurriness.

After a morning of frustrating countdowns we realize why our questions about the upcoming Ubisoft announcement went unanswered as IGN exclusively revealed the first title to be announced since the acquisition of the Tom Clancy name. Introducing the flight-combat title, Tom Clancy's HAWX. That's right spelling and grammar police it's called HAWX.

Developed by Ubisoft's Bucharest Studio, HAWX lets players control over 50 planes in dogfights across the sky. Set in 2012, HAWX includes your standard political storyline where private military companies are becoming increasingly more important in the fight for ... freedom, we guess.

Featuring an Enhanced Reality System (ERS) HAWX features in-game assists made to keep the experience as fun and intuitive as possible. The innovative ERS allows gamers to turn on tactical maps, read damage control systems and do pretty much everything else a heads-up display (HUD) has been doing since the dawn of the gaming age it seems. OK, it actually does cooler things like weapons trajectory control too.

HAWX supports four-player jump in and jump out co-op throughout the entire campaign and also includes a Vs. mode for up to 16 players. Tom Clancy's HAWX releases this fall on the Xbox 360, PS3 and PC.
