large scale multiplayer June 22, 2008 I was very pleased when I played this game, you really have a sense of teamwork and you feel like you have a job in the team, you can man the base turret, fly the jet, man the tank fight on foot, and the areas are big. This is a must own for hardcore gamers.
Great online game May 16, 2008 I gave it three stars merely because of its lack of an offline game mode of some sort. This game is awesome because it is just about the best online shooter I've ever played. Very intense sometimes, and extremely fun. But don't get it unless you have internet on your ps3. Other than that, i recommend you to buy this.
Warhawk adventure May 12, 2008 Exciting game, a lot of different themes and adventures, it really pumps your adrenaline. It's kind of difficult to learn to move around but ones you learn you have a hold new world in front of you.
blew my mind !!!!! May 7, 2008 5 out of 5 found this review helpful
I have played video games for decades now, I mean I basically got started with Pong on Atari, and by now tend to know my way around games quite well, or so I thought. Anyway, I personally tend to favor FPS and for me COD4 was simply as good as it could get, I actually got quite good at it.
I must admit I had never before played online, and also hadn't realized this game was online only. So I buy the thing, stick it in the PS3 and suddenly realize there is no single player option. So I say, well what the hell, I already bought the game, might as well give it a go, so I go online, and the next thing I know is that I'm suddenly a foot soldier in the middle of, well, how can I put this ... chaos, mayhem, Armageddon. all I could see were things being blowing up, soldiers running around all over the place, shooting each other, planes flying low firing missiles, machine guns, jamming jeeps or people, dropping bombs, grenades going off, tanks firing all over the place it was INSANE !!!!!!! So there I was, dazzled by all this, and basically just sitting there taking it all in when suddenly someone runs up to me and knifes me, and kills me !!!!! less than 30 seconds had gone by, and I was dead, I couldn't believe it !!!!. So there I was sitting on my sofa, my mind stunned by the apocalyptic scene I had seen, and by the fact I could do nothing to prevent from getting killed.
I mean, it's honestly not an easy game to master, for example the teams are the are reds and blues, and at that point I didn't even know what color I was. At around the nth iteration of me being killed in seconds, I got the hang of first selecting newbie games, which of course is where one should start playing, and then went for some online help as to how to learn to play this game, which in all reality generally just goes as far as saying it's just a matter of time and practice, and truthfully it is.
After about two hours and some no small degree of frustration I started to get the hang of it, and quite frankly have become addicted, and not all that bad at it either. This game feels like a real battle, not that I've ever been in one nor would want to be in one, but the reality of it all is simply amazing.
Being able to interact with other people, honk the horn and someone jumps on the jeeps turret, people jump around when you capture a flag, gang up and go attack the other team's HQ. It's simply unbelievable, the graphics are amazing, it's absolutely real time, no lags, the strategy and game play options are pretty much limitless. You can just hang back and defend, go fully offensive, snipe from somewhere well hidden, go about mine laying, or just slug it out for control of a small plot of land.
I have never ever in my long years played anything remotely like this, the interaction, the realism, the fact that it's real people you're going up against (probably all much younger than me though) just makes it mind blowing. I've actually had to set myself strict time limits for this game, I mean I do have a real life I must see to after all. But every spare half hour I've had the last four weeks I've played Warhawk. Oh and flying that Warhawk is just amazing, what a machine, well it does get some getting used to, and some is quite an understatement, you really need to get some hours in that cockpit before you're any good, and not get blown to pieces after 10 seconds in the thing.
Tanks are awesome, great firepower, from a distance you can make some pretty good damage and up close, if you're quick enough and aim well you can take out pretty much anything, Warhawks, ground infantry (you can actually just run them over), turrets, the lot. 4x4's are quick, nimble, great for having a go at a flag or controlling zones, and you can take two more with you which is really handy against more than one enemy.
This is sincerely the best game I have ever played, by far, and more than half the fun is the fact that your opponents and accomplices are real humans, not just dumb AI's. I mean even if it's kids, who cares, they are good at this and you help them out, and they help you out and it's all for the team. What is also amazing is that you can actually have one on one battles while all hell is breaking loose. At some point I was being spawned on some zone my team held, but a sniper was getting me all the time (probably some preteen little bastard), he must have killed me at least six times the same way (hey I was learning to play), so somehow I managed to get away, to sneak up on him and then oh so enjoyed getting back at him with my knife, next thing I know he spawns real close to me and we spend most of that half hour just killing each other, it was actually great fun.
What can I say, I can just go on and on and on about this game, it's simply amazing, really, buy it, go online, give it some time and you'll get the hang of it, I'm chief sergeant now and haven't actually played for too long and I truly enjoy every single minute of it. One other thing, you can choose to go into pretty much empty battle zones and practice flying the Warhawk, or just doing anything really, I have found this has helped me quite a lot in learning to use all the weapons you can find in the game.
Didn't think I'd love this game this much April 26, 2008 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
Though I've seen the game out for a while, nothing really sparked any interest in me to want to play the game. I just thought it was some futuristic flying game. I can remember the old warhawk for ps1 and feeling the same way. So while this game was on my gamefly list (like a netflix for video games, awesome investment) and it arrived I was a little dissapointed that my requested game wasn't available. Af first I was a little frusterated with the controls, but after changing the options I became quickly addicted. There is so much more to the game than just flying the warhawk. Definitly one of the best games I've ever played, judging that I simply can't get away from it. Also there are additional add on levels that increase the replay value. HIGHLY Reccommend this game to anyone with a PS3.
Also don't know how people are bashing this game on so called flaws. The games controls are easy and diverse even with all the different playing options. The look and feel of the game seem almost perfect. The sounds are also add a great warzone feel to the game. I also have almost no lagging depite the massive levels with up to 32 players at a time.
