The controls for Warhawk are all wrong, and the likelyhood now is that there will be too many advanced players to give you a fair go unless you take to the game immediately.

And from what I've heard about TOB on PS3. It's not worth a cent until they send out a patch to fix everything.

So in summary. COD4.

Warhawk you can definitely get for under 60, off the PSN. Won't even have to factor in gas money to go to the store. I personally recommend the disc version, but if price is your concern... Anyway, the games a lot of fun, there are always plenty of games to join. If you want to avoid playing nothing but hardened vets till you get the hang, you can search for games (or host your own) that have a limit on the ranks allowed in the game. True, there are guys that never play ranked games, so they have tons of experience but are still Recruits, but it will cut out a lot of the aces. Also, if you have any friends, Warhawk is the only one of those that features online with split-screen. TOB is cool, but Portal is the best thing on there and it's pretty short. I may get it eventually. COD4, I haven't played.

I haven't played COD4... but I have never played any multiplayer game that was faster-paced and more intense than Warhawk. Ranked games, especially. Unless you are playing 8 person games on maps designed for 32... And as for aiming frustrations... the game has aim assist. If your reticle is anywhere near the enemy when you start shooting, it will basically lock on to them, and follow them while you shoot.

I got warhawk used for 34 dollars... and I believe its the best of these games...mainly because Orange box has been out for PC for quite some time (not with fortress and w/e, but still)....and COD4 I've always been weary of just because people say the loading can be over 20 minutes sometimes... also warhawk has splitscreen on and offline which is always a plus...

Cod4 has geat single player, and the online is ok.....but to join a friends game he has to send you an invite you can just join it. Warhawk is great in the long run just because of how many people play it. the people who made warhawk ae constantly making new updates and map packs and they keep up with it, cod4s online is just there with no taking care of it by the creators

i happen to own all 3 of those games. COD4 -- PRO-- good campaign-- awesome online-- CONS-- short campaign-- online can feel repetitive cause you reach max lvl in like a week or two (im in 6th prestige)-- needs new maps WARHAWK-- PRO-- really good online-- awesome vehicle play CONS-- not many people have mics-- you end up feeling like a lone soldier on those huge maps unless u play with a clan-- ORANGE BOX-- PRO-- amazing singleplayer with the whole Half Life 2 story, which if you call yourself a shooter fan you MUST play-- some of the greatest firefights in FPS history occur in Episode 2 (stalker battle,hunters)-- the HL2 saga will take around 20-30 hours but its so good ive played through it 3x already-- Portal is a really cool puzzle game with a small tie in with Episode 2 and what will take place in Ep 3-- and then comes Team Fortress 2 that is a terrific online shooter. CONS-- EA did a piss poor job of porting it from 360--load times longer--framerate hitches--Team Fortress 2 needs a patch

sorry bout my previous msg it was written from my PS3 and spacing got screwed in transition, but its all there ---VERDICT--- if you want purely online play buy COD4. but if you even have the slightest feeling to buy the Orange Box, go buy it now. its innovative gameplay,puzzles, content, graphics and story completely outway any flaws caused by EA in the porting process (if you dont buy it for anything else buy it for the Gravity Gun, much fun will be had) (also writtin on my PS3)

COD 4 or Orange Box would be a good decision. I never could get into Warhawk.

You must get Warhawk, Well, CoD 4 have a small campagne. And after that what you will do ? Play online? If yes , u must buy Warhawk, bcauz', the game is based on online multiplayer game. So for 50 hours of play guarenteed, buy WARHAWK.

me neither, Warhawk just never cut it for me, i still have it though, never play it. i still regularly play COD4 and Orange Box. it just comes down to those two, but in my opinion Orange Box is better, the best FPS experience ive ever played

Warhawk is the way to go. You can config warhawk's control in anyway you see fit. And people don't get a lot better playing warhawk, because it's a VERY accessible game.

i have never played warhawk. call of duty is great, a bit short singleplayer wise. crazy addictive online. i would say go with orange box. if you want prefer quantity(5) games, its the best buy for your buck.
