Some parts from the review:::::

Warhawk is the greatest PlayStation 3 game you've never played if you're not one of the incredibly lucky beta testers. Test pilots for the upcoming multiplayer-only title have been blowing each other up on foot, in tanks and jeeps, in gun turrets and, of course, in the air in Warhawks since May 24. While the single-player mode is missed, the motion controls don't compare to the analog maneuvering and the minor glitches need to be fixed, for an all-out online war game Warhawk delivers one of the most epic battles on a next-generation console.

Warhawk is a mind-blowing experience in which anything can happen and everything that does happen is fun. The sense of comradery is incredible in this online universe and teamwork is the ultimate way to have fun as well as tackle the opposition. In my first online experience, I took charge of the machine gun in the back of the 4x4 after another a random teammate drove by me while I was tirelessly running. The driver relied on my gunning skills to take down Warhawks and keep us alive since he wasn't able to steer and shoot at the same time. Conversely, I relied on his driving "skills" to keep us underneath Warhawks to shoot them down. I say "skills" because he drove us off a surprise cliff the first time out. However, we quickly hooked up again and went out on patrol for more targets. We drove for what seems like a half hour and while I didn't have a USB headset in this initial round, I made sure I wrote down the player's name and friended him for future Warhawk collaborations. This is the type of experience that Warhawk can turn into and no two rounds are the same.

Sounds like Shadowrun, a fun multiplayer experience that isn't technically sound.

well shadowrun charged you 60 bucks.. This game is rumoured to go up for 20 bucks. Plus shadowrun was having bad press months before its release... this game is having nothing but positive buzz surrounding it.

Monster Hunter was getting hyped by the press like crazy before it was released. It doesn't mean the game is any good.

Didn't monster hunter sell like crazy in japan?

and its extremeley popular in japan, with its own pc mmo version soon coming out. so the positive buzz surrounding monster hunter actually was worth it since it turned out to be a success.

warhawk could be the best game ever made, but you know what? aircraft games dont sell much and they dont move systems. not enough people find it fun. same for mech games.

The game itself sound similiar to Shadowrun. It requires teamwork, is online only, and is fun but has some technical issues. I didn't mention the price I was talking about the game.

Warhawk will be an amazing title,I remember reading a preview of the beta somewhere where the "previewer" said he was having more fun with it than the Halo 3 beta. And considering Halo is heralded as the greatest online multiplayer shooter game around,this is quite a win for Incognito.

Also, I like how the one and only game Sony used to promo their tilt controls managed to suck at it.

Is Warhawk the only game appearing on the Ps3 that has tilty support? If no,then that presents quite a dilemma with your logic.

That's a nice way to counter an argument, with a rumour.

So did Gundam and it was crap. The Japanese aren't above buying garbage. In fact they buy quite a bit of it.

my point is that before shadowrun's release it had negative buzz surrounding its gameplay and lasting appeal. I remember 1up shrugging it as a "meh" title that wont last you long because it didnt offer much and had steep learning curve.

However, i haven't found one negative preview or buzz surrounding this game lately. If you can find any then please link it to me. Other then the technical issues in the beta (thats why its a beta to begin with.. to solve the technical issues) this game looks like it could potentially score aaa.

one beta tester said that he questioned if the graphics will be similar and the dev replied it will in fact be better then what they are playing.

Sounds like Planetside. Hopefully they have better goals and richer rewards then that game.

The only negative for Warhawk I've heard is there is no "single player" mode. I wish they had a campagne. I might still get it if it's still popular once I get a PS3. Resistance, Warhawk & Heavenly Sword were the only 3 PS3 I was looking forward to trying .

That's your opinion. My opinion it's garbagio and I hope Warhawk is nothing like Shadowrun in anyway.

There are far worse things than bulletproof (as crappy as the game is)and many of them are found on Japanese store shelves. Japanese tastes can get.......weird.

And yes, the Japanese might have better taste than YOU. I happen to believe I have very good taste.
