I really like this game. It is one of the best online games available. There are so many different ways to accomplish you goals. It is definitely worth 40 bucks. Try it out if you are into multiplayer games.

The Most Fun You Will Have With An Online Game

Warhawk is a game which some will remember from the original Playstation console. It has been brought back with the soul ability for online play and enjoyment. With a maximum player number of 32, Warhawk gives us a genuine chaotic war feel that makes this game fast paced and just a hell of a lot of fun.

There are a number of different games that you can play against online opponents including Team Deathmatch, Capture The Flag, Zones and a few others. Two new gameplay modes called Collection and Hero have been added with the new 1.4 expansion pack. A new map was also added with the pack, which give a further extension of the game, thus enhancing the enjoyment. Vehicles include Jets, Tanks and 4x4 Cars with a gun turret. There is also a hover type flying craft which allows up to 5 people in at once and have the ability to control individual weapons.

I did buy this online via the Playstation Store which meant I got it for half price, but I think selling this game outside of the Playstation Store, but giving a free Bluetooth headset option is a good move. There is a further 1.5 expansion which is going to implement the newly created Trophies feature, and is also rumoured to be giving us a new map. Being online gives this game limitless possibilities, from the number of people in one game to the number of updates we can be given. Due to the constant expansions, there is no need for a sequel. I do, however, in a further expansion hope to see the maximum number of people increased to 60 or more. The online play of the upcoming Resistance 2 as promised a maximum of 60 people in one online match. I have no doubt that with this being a totally online game, it can be achieved just as well.

A big fan

I am suprised it took me so long to give this game a try. I am a huge fan of multiplayer warfare (such as in the battlfield games) and this game was right up my alley the whole time! I play it every day I am so addicted, they keep putting out these huge updates too. You will be getting your moneys worth and then some if you like multiplayer games. I wish somone would have told me how awesome this game was along time ago, because i'm such a rookie it's not even funny, but I still have fun.

Must have for PS3

I brought this game on a whim. I'm glad I did. Although this game only supports online play it is very fun. Each game is never the same as t he last and you meet a ton of people. If you have a PS3, I recommend this game and I'll see you online! =)

Epic Win!

MAN THIS GAME IS SO MUCH FUN! You first spawn with a pistol and 2 grenades. You can pick up weapons by just looking at what color code they are in! There are Jeeps, Tanks, APCs(Broken Mirror Booster Pack), Dropships(Omega Dawn Booster Pack), and to be yet to be comfirmed, Jetpacks! xD Alot of maps and vehicles too! 5 Words: Get ready to get PWNED!

This game is a joke.

Anyone can see this game is the worst online game ever made. The game lags all the time and graphics suck. Even the lowest 360 game outperforms this disaster game. There is no mission campaign and online servers are very slow. DO NOT buy this game or PS 3, get a XBOX 360 if you want great online play with more quality game titles.

Great game that keeps getting fresh updates!

First off, this game will take some time to really master and become good at.(do not expect to jump online and own ppl). However, as your skill increases so do the rewards and addiction of game play. Tip for rookies; only join the official server games that are listed as rookie server games. At least this way you will be playing with others who have do not have a ton of experience as well. The key is to learn each map and where the items spawn at.

Pros
- a new patch update comes out every few months which usually brings with it new vehicles, maps, gamemodes, and paint jobs. ( the support for this game is impressive). It really keeps the game fresh.
- will be supporting ps3 trophies as of august 27th!!
- not only includes gamemodes of: zones, capture the flag, team death match, etc. but now they have added two new modes called collection and hero! Hero allows each person on the team to be the Hero for about 2 minutes getting super buffed stats.
- there a still a ton of people playing this and very easy to find a game to jump in on with my skill level
- fun to play whether it be on the ground at tank or jeep or playing defense in missile turrets or in the air as a warhawk or dropship(be careful air battles take much practice)
- the price has been dropped and now is the perfect time to pick this game up and play it with all its new fresh updates

cons
- you will easily start to spend a lot of time ranking up and sleep may start to suffer =)

Throughly enjoy the game play!

Just about terrible

This game must have a kind of cult following with all the positive reviews, because I just don't get it. Warhawk is likely the worst PS3 game I've played to date. To start with, there is absolutely no tutorial or any place to practice. You are instantly tossed into chaos before you even know which button shoots. The single solitary reason I gave this 2 stars instead of 1 is flying. The planes are fun to fly around in, that's it, nothing else worth a second look here.

The games only purpose is combat, yet the combat is awful...simply awful. I always hated war games where there is an advantage to jumping around. Here comes warhawk.....you will immediately see people jumping through the air like a bunch of ballerinas fighting a war. It just looks so stupid. In real life do you think soldiers are jumping around on the battle field? There is a crouch option which gives you no advantage at all. So jumping is good, sneaking (crouching)is useless hmmmm....ok

The absolute stupidest most irritating thing about this game is how the knives are the best freaking weapon to use...in a gunfight!!! Wait until you get online and see how many people are running around with knives. You can be shooting someone with a machine gun and they will run up to you and stab you. You die faster from a stab wound in this game then from 40 rounds at close range with an assault rifle. There were hundreds of times where I am unloading my weapon into a guy and he's still running towards me to the point of me wondering if I'm even hitting him despite the crosshairs being directly on him. I'm serious, I even snuck up directly behind a guy and shot him in the head, did he drop dead? No...he turned around and stabbed me, then I die. Ok

Basically all the "war" consists of is a bunch of guys running around like chickens without heads and jumping through the air. It reminds me of the lame online combat of Socom 1 for the PS2. Dogfights in the air are clunky and depend on sheer luck. Driving tanks is awkward and they explode far too easily. I really could list more annoying features but it's even bothering me while I type this so I shall stop. In closing, the graphics aren't even all that impressive. I'm sticking with Call of Duty, which is light years ahead of this kiddie nonsense.

Great Game!

This is a very fun and addictive game! I picked it up yesterday and have not been able to put it down. If you want a game that's challenging, fun, and can be played with people worldwide, then this is the game to get!

Frustrating But Addictive

Warhawk is the type of game that no matter how much you may try, your still addicted to it. That's how it is for me as I have never played an online game in my life until Warhawk which presented quite a challenge as there is no introduction or tutorial, you are just thrown into a battle and given a couple hints along the way as you pick up different items and such. Nevertheless the game is incredibly addicting and is a must for all Playstation 3 owners.

Thumbs Up:
- looks good, feels good, sounds good
- A selection of filters allows you to fine tune exactly where and what you want to play
- the ranking system with awards and customization makes you want to keep playing

Thumbs Down:
- If you have never played an online game you might be turned away because there is a steep learning curve, even for veterans
- Some the physics don't make any sense, like how can a knife destroy a jeep with two swipes?
- Doesn't relate to the game as it does the players, some will plague the radio with gargled crap and if you don't communicate your team will loose, horribly.
