If you tried Ace Combat, you'll probably love H.A.W.X.
I played Hawx first, and i find that it is way better than Ace Combat Assault Horizon

What? You mean like Hawx 2? If so, i didn't really like it either, but i found the first one filled the void that was left after Ace combat Shattered Skies(on PS2), which was by far my favourite at the time.
Besides Ace Combat and Hawx, i am not too sure if there are many other arcade like flight games, on Steam anyways.
There is Dogfight 1942 which is pretty good, but kind of short campaign wise, and Top Gun which i didn't really like.

There really aren't many options for modern airplane arcade combat. I guess there just isn't much of a market for it. Hardcore players want the plane sim games, not the arcade style. Peoples' best bet for arcade style flying are all WWII games, or which there are plenty. I've always figured its simply because the planes are slower, which makes for easier programming and more user-friendly gameplay.

I really like H.A.W.X, and prefer its combat mechanics to Ace Combat - Assault Horizon's.
The storry part though, is really forgettable.

Agreed, but i don't like either game's flight gimmick (DFM in AC, EMS(?) in Hawx).
I didn't follow the story in either game.

I quite liked ERS (which you disengage), it allowed for some really fun maneuvers and at times really beautiful action.

I hope you don't mind me recommending some very old games from a handful of different systems.

Ace Combat (The old ones for the PS1 and PS2, they were away better than the atrocity that was Assault Horizon).

AirForce Delta (Also known as Deadly Skies, there are three entries in the series, the first for the mighty Dreamcast, the second's on XBox and the third's on the PS2, I never played the XBox game, as for the other two, the first one on the DC was away better than the third in my opinion).

Aero Wings (for the Dreamcast, but as far as I remember, it's more of a Sim, look it up).

Blazing Angels (only played a demo away back when the XBox 360 was a novelty, it was quite fun but the controls were weird, not sure if it made it to the PC)

Eagle One - Harrier Attack (if my memory doesn't fail me, this used to be pretty cool back in the PS1 days).

Hawx (the first was quite interesting, not good but decent enough, never played the second).

Jane's Advanced Strike Fighters (I'm completely unfamiliar with the series, but as far as I know, they're flight simulators, besides this one that is, Strike Fighters is more of an arcade game, never played it before but from what I heard, it might not be that good, but who knows).

There are a lot more games, most which I fail to remember the names.

Jane's Advanced Strike Fighters..Perhaps the only flight game i have played for less than an hour before uninstalling

I played IL-2: Sturmovik 1946 for less than an hour before uninstalling, although I think that was mostly because I didn't have a controller/joystick and its unplayable on a keyboard. I couldn't even control it well enough to take off.

Ace combat 4 and 5 were pretty good, but they are only on old consoles like ps2.

Or this. You know, the good ol' days when you have to punch other kids just for a chance to get your hands on the controller.

I guess ill have to try out Hawx 2 , can you recommend any sim's with a story? i dont mind them being realistic

I'd suggest doing some research. From what I had been reading, you can't actually play HAWX 2 anymore, since the servers are down and the DRM requires it. Perhaps there's a workaround now, though.

Most people thought the first one was much better anyways.

Do you mean "multiplayer is dead", or is it really not possible to play the game at all anymore ? That would cause quite a ruckus.

Crimson Skies was a great arcade flyer game. I still pull it out for some fun, every now and then.

Have you tried checking out SkyDrift?

The older Ace Combat games are leagues better than Assault Horizon. AH is the garbage dump of the AC series.
