FiringSquad previews Warhawk beta

Last month, Microsoft made a big deal of its launch of its multiplayer beta test of the upcoming Xbox 360 shooter Halo 3. Press events were held in New York and San Fransisco and a Hollywood "launch" party full of semi-celebs got a little attention as well. The week after the Halo 3 beta launch, Sony quietly launched its own beta test of Warhawk, allowing a few folks to download via the PS3's Playstation Store an early version of developer Incog's multiplayer shooter game. There was no press events for this beta test and no Hollywood photo op but FiringSquad has been playing the Warhawk beta ever since it launched last week and with a couple of reservations they find it to be both more complete and far more fun to play than the current Halo 3 beta test, which bodes well for the final version of the game to be released later this year.

If i was okay to compare gears of war to resistance then this comparisson is just as good......SIDE NOTe ( If u want bubbles on this site just be a MS fanboi because thats all u need to do to ge ya bubbles up) MY freedom of speech is limited IM TELLING...

Edit...+ that simply not tru for the most part I am neutral I like both systems but not equally and just plain hate the wii...and here if Xbox aint your favorite you wont have bubbles...Even look at the more popular members like Snoop, and MArt Sop is neutral as it gets but seems to like playstaion more and mart is a super fan boy who thinks Xbox is god but doesnt see wat they are doing to the gaming community far as games for windows and charging for mod content things in which we all know should be free but Ms does trojan horses in there games..whihc I belive sony did with motostorm..whihc stoles ms theory and ran wiht it far as tracks go

If that were true, I'd have more bubbles. Obviously you have to appear to be neutral in order to have the right to speak on this website. While I agree offensive language shouldn't be tolerated, My opinions are My own. You don't have to agree with them. I just call it like I see it.

BTW: You can tell this was submitted by a lemming...
"More fan to play than Halo 3".

More fan?

TnS6165d ago

CyberSentinel: fan was a typo. :) Anyway I changed the title to neutral.

Hmmm... WarHawk. Moving along now.

T-Virus6165d ago

Why can't people accept that different people prefer different games, without insulting other games.

eques judicii6165d ago

there is no reason to compare these betas... warhawk probably put a lot more into the beta, while bungie left a lot of things out of the beta. Warhawk needs to make a name for itself while halo doesn't... thus there are feature differences...

both will be great, halo will sell more because it has a bigger name...

CAPS LOCK6165d ago

i am one of the few people who was luck enough to play both. I love halo but sometimes its repetitive and even though it doesn't seem well, i would still purchase the 360 for that game (currently playing in my neighbors house)i have the warhawk beta and its awesome. if i was more bothered i would go to my neighbors home. i kinda do prefer warhawk but for some reason i want both.

in MY opinion:

halo 3 beta = 8.4
warhawk beta = 9.2

power of Green 6165d ago

Agreed!, thats excactly what i was going to post then i deleted it and hinted at that in what i actually posted.

Roundtable: Dead Game Franchises We Miss

With every big game now belonging to a big intellectual property, there are those that have become redundant. Here are the series' we miss.

RPGer1083d ago

I miss Dark Cloud I mean damn, Dark Cloud 2 is one of the best Action RPG game ever made. The game have: Rich Worlds, different setting, tons of contents, vareity in gameplay like never before (and even after), best buliding mechanics, crafting system like no one did and finally impressive graphics.

Most underrated game ever. It deserved the popularity and sales of Zelda and Final Fantasy. ut unfortunately, Level-5 and Sony didn't advertise it at all.

titans99991083d ago

My franchises I wish would make a come back, are Battlefront by pandemic studios - galactic conquest was the best, mercenaries 1 and 2, and prototype 1 and 2...great games!

Remembering Warhawk – one of the PS3’s first multiplayer must-haves

TSA writes: "For many PS3 owners and members of the TSA community, Warhawk was our first foray into the mesmerising world of online multiplayer. Now, after more than a decade of dogfights, the skies over Eucadia are clear, the game’s two warring factions having called an eternal ceasefire. To put it in less poetic terms, Sony finally pulled the plug on January 31st with the online servers no longer accessible."

I hope we do get a next-gen Warhawk, that would be awesome. Warhawk was so underrated for it's time.

SegaSaturn6691864d ago

This game...my god. What a masterpiece.

mkis0071864d ago

I really enjoyed warhawk on ps3. Hope it isn't dead because of Starhawks average reception.

Knushwood Butt1864d ago

Time just flew by when playing this, and I always had that, 'just one more game, then I quit for the day.' urge.

Spent entire days playing it. Not healthy, but endless fun.

PoSTedUP1864d ago

after a very long hard days work i would come home and drink a few coors light 24 ounces while playing this game on my vita through PSnow, for hours and hours. it made me happy. it is one of those experiences i will never forget.

Guess I can now plat all stars😁

porkChop1993d ago

A Warhawk remaster or remake would be nice, but we know Sony isn't going to bother.

MONOLITHICIDE1993d ago

I only diagree because please dont say that. We have had zero games like this so far. No MAG, SOCOM, TWISTED METAL etc...

TheSaint1993d ago

I'd kill or die for a MAG 2 on PS4.

Babadook71993d ago

Yup. Remaster or better yet. A remake.

FunAndGun1993d ago

Please, for the love of all things gaming, make a Warhawk remaster. I logged on for Warhawk day last year, and promptly got destroyed by ground and air. Some hardcore players still playing today. Warhawk is my favorite MP game ever made, hands down!

Sevir1993d ago

Honestly, Warhawk and the original Resistance was pure multiplayer bliss on PS3 in it's first few years on the market. If they did a ground up remake of Warhawk for PS4 I'd be so happy. In similar to how they did Wipeout Omega collection on PS4

Concertoine1993d ago

I miss the simplicity of early 7th gen shooters.
