Top Gun: Hard Lock announced
Developer Headstrong Games and publisher 505 Games has announced Top Gun: Hard Lock, a "reimagining" of the 80s property set in current day. It's due for PC, PS3, and 360 in 2012.
The movie Top Gun has already had a few games based on its namesake, but publishers aren't quite done banking on your Tom Cruise nostalgia. Publisher 505 Games announced Top Gun: Hard Lock this week, calling it a "reimagining" of the franchise set in modern day. It's being developed by Headstrong Games, and set for release on PC, PlayStation 3, and Xbox 360 in spring 2012.
The game features new characters graduating from the Top Gun academy. Obviously enough, it will focus on aerial dogfighting with jets, including the military's F-14 Tomcat. It will also offer a "Hard Lock" mode that has you performing specific combat maneuvers with visual flair.
"Top Gun: Hard Lock pays tribute to the brand's heritage but will deliver the fierce action and intense aerial combat that today's gamers expect," said 505 managing director Ian Howe in the announcement.

The movie was and still is incredibly popular. These days it's more about corny 80's nostalgia but the license has always been really popular.
And they've been making games on it more frequently than you might imagine
