I am very surprised about the depressed review ratings on here. We have played Warhawk since it was launched 7 months or so ago and it is still one of the games that lets us choose the PS3 over our XBOX360(Halo!!!)regularly.

Warhawk is a pure online multiplayer game where you can choose, on various sized maps, what you prefer: battle from air to air, air to ground, tank battles, ssimple 2 feet battle with machine guns... it all mixes together in glorious fun battles.

Choose a shotgun, mine a few tanks, use a flame thrower or jump in a turret to what the Warhawks out of the air (Warhawks are Harrier type planes that can hover like Helis and fly like jets). You can use the sixaxis controller or simple joystick controls.

Nothing is more fun than a battle that has all the varied components at the same time. We use a large 63" HDTV with 4 players online at the same time. This is a blast (much like Halo)as you can have your friends cover you from the air or ground etc. Voicechat with the headsets works great too.

All in all: nothing beats a 4 player online splitscreen experience. It is the biggest thrill to take on others that way or even each other.

You can also play local only by setting a localhosting game. The only thing you cannot do is a 1 player mission.

The game has all the traditionas: zones (capture territories), CTF, Melee etc etc.

What is also woth mentioning is that you can pla from huge 5 mile radius maps to tiny little fortresses with 32 players, i.e. either a sniper, long range bombing war vs crazy stab-fests or anything inbetween.

Warhawk is a must have for anyone that diggs Halo (1, 2 or 3). 4 player split screen is a must have. The variety is a mt have. The game does not get old, it gets better as you start to memorize maps and find weapons.

It lags Forge mode but they have broughtout the Omega factory map that comes with the huge flying fortress which is insanely fun to bring down.
WARHAWK RULES, SIR YESSIR.


PS, REGARDING THE HEADSET VERSION: You do not need it if you have a Bluetooth headset lying around. Any bluetooth headset seems to work and 20$ for a crappy headset is not worth the money. Get yourself a 9$ BT headset on dealextreme or so if you really want one.

This isn't stated in the games description. This game is multiplayer only. Online or LAN. If you do not have online connectivity (like me) then this game is useless to you, do not buy.

Where to start....This is the best game I have played on the ps3 so far! It is loads of fun, fly in a WarHawk, go on foot, get in a jeep, in a tank, and if you get that Omega Dawn booster pack from PSN (playstation network), you can comandeer a dropship. I stayed up playing this game till 3:00am! I couldn't get enough of it. If you have a PS3 and do not have this game, go and buy it now (if you have online play for it)!

Seeing such little reviews that helped me myself I decided to make one.

First off, Warhawk is a fun game Air Force based by some of the ranks ie Airmen. Kind of neat how when you rank up you unlock decals for your planes and new costumes and such. I first purchased this game on its release I thought it was kind of lame at first so I sold it, I gave it a 2nd chance and picked it up again since I seen there were expansion packs out and all kinds of new things added in, this game is online only but they really put alot of work into making it a good game. Its the only game I know of that you can dog fight in the air, fight hand to hand or blow each other up with tanks and such.

I'd pick it up for the 40 dollars, I personaly love the game now that I've gave it a 2nd chance It may not be for everyone but if you like war type games its a good hit! 10/10

Everything a multiplayer FPS should be. Vehicles, planes, and grunts all in massive maps with exciting and energetic combat.

It is a game with no FBS mode FBS is looking through iron sights the whole time. You are a troop fighting off plane tank car and other troops. There are special weapons you can get tactical with and there are some you never atempt to confront. Tank you bast off people coming around also kills planes and cars. Plane this is where you have to have some skill in this game. I recommend starting in LAN mode where you only play local A.K.A the people right next to you multiplayer. There is a lot to acomplsh before hanging up the phone. Collect all the trophies, Badges, Medals, and Ranks. Then being the top of warhawk. the top is markjayw online name he has about 2000000 pts. I am at 32000. Not close but It'll happen.

I play it every time I have a chance. The only time I don't is after I played it for 4h and or if I am Not feeling the mood.

I played this game and played it, before i knew it i had played like 5 hours and who could blame me? it's extremely FUN.
many people say that the help isn't HELPFUL, but who cares? i figured out all the controls in like 3 minutes it isn't hard at all.
the only problems i see with this is that tanks are strong but not enough and that when you fall into water it just swallows you and no splash but nobody cares because nobody swims and you almost never fall into the water.
sniper riffles have LONG range and i mean it, this game can just be described by 2 words; awesome and fun.
I highly recommend this game.
btw: no single player but you DON'T need it

I love this game and anyone I know who has played it loves it too. It definitely deserves 5 stars, especially with the extra maps.

this game is an action packed online only game. you have a wide variety of vehicles/weapons to choose from such as the tank a somewhat slow armored destructive vehicle, the jeep which is fast very low armor but has a mounted turret in the back and finally the warhawk itself. the warhawk is a high-tech plane capable of shooting a wide array of weapons such as swarm missiles and dropping bombs, and a whole lot more. i recommend this game to people that like fast paced games, and for those of you who like to choose what to do like be on the ground and use weapons or use vehicles.

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.
