Ubisoft have released HAWX 2 - The 8-bit Game, a retro version of their high-flying shooter which sees you blasting at pixellated enemy planes and helicopters in classic coin-op style. It's a clever marketing ploy, sure, but the free flash game's surprisingly good fun. Play it here before hopping into your beach volleyball shorts in celebration of the full game's release today. The PS3 version follows shortly on September 9th.
