Warhawk - PS3

Pros Cons
Intense action Ugly visuals
Fantastic multiplayer Lousy camera/viewpoint
Just plain fun  
Fun Fun Fun

So I bought Warhawk when it came out last November and for the first month got owned in every possible way. I have since learned how to operate this game and it is a blast to play. Huge maps with air and ground combat. 1/2 hour games which is nice, but not when you are always on the loosing team. There are some tough players in this game, so heads up. I like the scenery but more detail for the graphics would have been supreme. The 3 booster packs add awesome gameplay elements, recommend it.

Not that great....

Around spring 2006 they launched the Warhawk website, I was so exited about this game, I could watch the gameplay and development movies over and over again, there was just something about the proud music, the beautiful graphics, and the planes that made this the first PS3 game that I really wanted to own. Then, around July or August they announced that they were no longer working on a single player campain, but were now focusing all there work on one huge multiplayer experience. I was hugely disapointed.

The graphics are just as good as I remember from the videos from spring '06. I just want to say that the water effects in the oceans are really good and realistic.

The multiplayer gameplay, while is done well, is hard to get into with more experienced players pwning you every 2 seconds while you know virtually nothing about the controls.

Honestly, I want to see a Warhawk 2, and there really needs to be a single player campain mode. Incognito has made a promising game that needs and should be expanded upon.

The 1st must own online PS3 game

Warhawk is amazing!!! From the sweeping score, to the catchy visuals, this is a great game, and a must own for all fans of online war games. Supporting 32 players, and a huge variety of vehicles to choose from, no two rounds will play out the same way. And thats not to mention the biggest maps this side of WoW. It's amazing that they could pull it off so early into the PS3s lifecycle. Another thing I like is that the developers are still supporting it. Most games see maybe one expansion pack, two at best. But Warhawk recently released the third expansion pack, and an update featuring trophies, and two new game modes FOR FREE. Most games would charge you 10-15 bucks for a couple new gamemodes. It's not all good news though, as some people may not like the third person camera for an online game like this. And there are the occasional connection problems, but all in all great job incognito, and Sony.

    I really like blowing things up. In most situations this statement would land me in prison, where making things explode would be limited to the warden's anger, but thankfully I have my PS3 and Warhawk to help with this slight aberration, letting me enjoy the soothing art of explosions.
