Originally penned as a single player title with additional online elements, Incognito deciced to drastically shift focus to a more multiplayer orientated title and Warhawk is all the better for it. Trust us when we say flying a fighter jet over some of the most diverse maps to date seen in any game has never been as fun. You get to play in sandy covered ravines to tropical islands beautifully and artistically designed. You will find yourself shot down more than once simply because your caught off guard admiring the view, and what a view. Never have we seen such huge draw distances in our lives. Kudos once again goes to Incognito. Never has draw distance been so important to the survival of a title and if Incognito hadnt realized this, Warhawk could have been a flying disaster.
Graphics aside, its all about gameplay. It doesnt matter how visually beautiful a game is if the core gameplay is dog poor , thankfully gameplay here actually surpasses whats viewed on screen. You have an absolute treasure chest of options available to you here which all help create some spectacular battles. If you want a 32 player battle over a tiny area and litlerally throw your opponents into the biggest masacre available onscreen then off you go. If you want a more skill orientated dogfight then you can create a match up over a massive map and have one of the greatest multiplayer battles of your life.
TOTAL 9.6 !

...which are the games you are interested in ?
-
if i had a ps3, littlebigplanet, GT5, and heavenly sword. and GTA but its multiplatform.
I\'ve never been too impressed with warhawk, except for the flying. The ground combat looked horrible, but Im pretty sure that was an early build, so I have no idea what it will be like. They had Lair on that gamespot show On the Spot, and it looked really disappointing. I say mid 7 reviews, MAYBE 8, since only portions of the game have been shown.
The other 2 with dates i never heard of
2008 will definitly be a good jumpstart for the ps3
-
Uncharted, Wipeout HD, GT5 prologue, Littlebigplanet, and eye of judgement all have perked my interest.
However, if it came down to it, I probably wouldn\'t pick up eye of judgement or GT5. Eye of judgement looks pretty fricken cool but I could never justify paying that much for a card game. GT5 looks pretty but I\'ve played enough racing sims for the next 5 years or so.

if you haven\'t done so and have a ps3 make a japanese psn account and dl the Folksoul (folklore in us/eu) demo - it is an awesome game and you can check out the few trailers they got out already as well at gametrailers
its basically an Action/adventure game with a lot of rpg elements - the style and graphics are beautiful and it has a Jim henson type of feel almost when you think of atmosphere kinda like Labyrinth or MirrorMask
-
i didn\'t expect this game to score that high. I expected a decent score only because i heard the gameplay on the ground was kinda weak..good to hear tho,... i\'ve already done a list of games i wanted in another thread, but a couple of games i\'m still on the fence about is army of two and littlebigplanet...<---- i still really don\'t know what littlebigplanet is all about...i kinda like the look of it tho...
-
well to be honest i have never heard of that website and he used it for 2 ps3 games now... and both were really really high marks
while i played warhawk beta and it was good fun in no way do i think an online only game should score 9.6
imo this game is prolly more like an 8-8.5 tops
-
that\'s why i pretty much just go off of ign, gamespot, gameinformer, and normal people\'s thoughts. and hopefully a demo.
If you played the demo, and thought it was a 8-8.5, its probably going to be that to you. if someone else puts 9.6, it doesnt mean sh*t to you

IGN up to 8.8

those scores are along the lines of what i was thinkin\'...i was a fan of the first warhawk game, so maybe this is equivalent(spel) to what that game was back in it\'s time. :fro:
-
Is there a single player mode such as the first though?
-
Just finished installing it this morning. Hopefully, I\'ll have time to play tonight.
-
no single player - online only
and i was beta tester its good fun once you get hang of it
