Ace Combat Zero gets its own standalone app on Steam, freeing it from the 136GB install of Ace Combat 8 The biggest complaint about the pre-order bonus game is getting resolved with a happy ending. PC Gamer's reviewer scored it a 92%, and I've been savoring the campaign, because I know it could be years until we get another bombastic flight sim melodrama of its kind. Although I do have another Ace Combat lined up to play after: Ace Combat Zero, which was included as a free pre-order bonus with AC8, and subsequently responsible for the majority of the new game's negative launch day reviews. Not because Zero is bad—it's a series fan-favorite—but because Bandai Namco inexplicably bundled it into the AC8 launcher, meaning you can't download this 3.2GB port of a 2006 PS2 game without the 136 gigabytes of Wings of Theve.
