More On: Sid Meier's Ace Patrol

Sid Meier must be one of the most prolific and longest-running industry leaders this side of Hideo Kojima. His new airplane action strategy sequel, Sid Meier's Ace Patrol: Pacific Skies, is coming to iOS and Steam this fall. To accompany its launch, they have this newsreel-style PSA. It doesn't contain any gameplay footage, but then again I really don't care. Just...just watch it. Really. I can't stop laughing.
