PS3Fanboy Hands-on with Warhawk: Operation Broken Mirror

PS3 Fanboy writes: "Although the Broken Mirror expansion won't be ready until April 17th (day of the PLAYSTATION Store relaunch), we had a chance to play it with fellow online journalists. Majed and myself took to the skies in split-screen action as we played a round of Capture the Flag and Zones on the brand new map: Vaporfield Glacier.

Ten variations are planned for the largest Warhawk map to date, and the two that we played today were both intelligently laid out, with multiple routes possible by foot, car and sky. Unlike in Omega Dawn, these variations never feel overwhelming large. The level was just the right size for our group of about a dozen players: it wasn't too small to feel barren (a problem in Omega Dawn), and wasn't too small to create a too-chaotic feel. Although the weather is supposed to change, we experienced clear skies in our play session. It might be an ice level, but don't expect to slip 'n slide."

A Warhawk 2 in the Near Future?

Earlier today, I sent to tweet Sony Santa Monica asking if they're considering a Warhawk 2. It could be that Sony Santa Monica meant to state this following phrase in a different way "We are not working on this game right now", but the "right now" part leads me to believe that they're possibly considering a Warhawk 2 sometime in the future, since they didn't say something along the lines of "We won't be making a Warhawk 2". Is there hope that a great game from the PS3 can have a sequel on the upcoming PS4 in the near future?

KingKelloggTheWH4035d ago

I really hope so,these games are some of the best multiplayer out there and have potential to become the best.It would be a shame to let them die out.

NewMonday4035d ago (Edited 4035d ago )

this is closer to what Sony Santa Monica was trying to say :p

Only problem is that Dylan Jobe no longer works for sony after Starhawk.

I played warhawk for years vs literally days on starhawk.

They need to go back to warhawk style.

HammadTheBeast4035d ago (Edited 4035d ago )

I agree, Starhawk was a very different game, and tried a bit too hard.

I played in the beta for a bit, and liked it, but the full release got very stale quickly.

The Build and Battle system just wasn't suited for the arcadey all out war battles of Warhawk.

ThatCanadianGuy5144035d ago

Hopefully.Warhawk trumped Starhawk in every aspect.Warhawk was original, unique, epic and downright addictive.

Starhawk felt like a third person COD - in space.They need to go back to basics.

Linzoid4035d ago

Totally agree, I really couldn't get into Starhawk at all.

I really hope we see Warhawk 2 on PS4!

BitbyDeath4035d ago

Yes, i bought Starhawk but barely touched it after a week. Warhawk had me hooked for years.

Linzoid4035d ago

I still play Warhawk now, the community is amazing, loads of people still play

Knushwood Butt4035d ago

Yeah, played Warhawk for hundreds of hours.

Played the Starhawk beta a bit and I just never found it fun. End result being that I didn't buy it.

vickers5004035d ago

And get rid of the stupid build system. It was a neat idea, but it just doesn't really work too well.

KwietStorm_BLM4035d ago

-_- does Call of Duty have to be the scapegoat for everything that went wrong? Starhawk feels like COD in what way?

A Warhawk 2 on the PS4 would be too epic, really hope it happens.

JoySticksFTW4035d ago

one2thr4035d ago

OH GOD YES! I was was just playing Warhawk the other day, and couldn't believe how well it aged and stood up against the test of time. And the 4 player split screen online vs others is/was awesome to, heck I shot down a hawk with a sniper rifle<<Epic Win

MysticStrummer4035d ago

Ohhh. Excuse me. I have to go change my shorts. Warhawk was so incredible. Several friends bought PS3s after they saw me playing it.

I wish they would set a specific time for updates and just let it go at that.

MasterChief36244980d ago (Edited 4980d ago )

That would be a great idea. Tonight's update took quite the long time to push out there. Some people even thought Sony forgot about them D:

Sidenote: WTF is with Disney? They took down all their PSOne Classics D:

Lifewish4980d ago

yay for demos, even if one is Quantum Theory

ftwrthtx4980d ago

I've had it and all the boosters since they released. Maybe more new users will jump in now.

KratosGirI4980d ago

I wonder what's available in the EU store later today...

ftwrthtx4979d ago

The Eu list has been added

BeastModeYMOB4980d ago

SUCKS BALLZ! GeoW Knock off gone wrong x 1000! Why would they even attempt to rip off a classic like that? That is 1 game that should have been cancelled!

Sony to Ban Warhawk Tournament Cheaters?

Dylan Jobe, LightBox Interactive president and the "father of Warhawk", revealed via his Twitter account that some Warhawk players might find themselves banned from the PlayStation Network after padding their stats in the latest Warhawk tournament.

MGOelite5129d ago

this is still one of my favorite games

rroded5129d ago

put in a thousand hours+ in the past 3 years n the games still going strong!

LordMarius5129d ago

"at them having ta buy new ps3's"

......umm why?

MGOelite5129d ago

sony can block your entire console from connecting with PSN so you cant even make a new account. very very rare though

Sunny_D5129d ago

They had another tournament??? I was in the first WH GGl tournament. I got the ceremonial blade, my team was number 5.

cLiCK_sLiCK95129d ago

Lol..I just recently downloaded the Warhawk Demo and it lets me play on the tournament severs for free! All maps besides the DLC.

Good. Every cheater deserves banning. Cheaters only ruin good games anyway.

JoelR5129d ago

NUKE EM FROM ORBIT.... IT'S THE ONLY WAY TO BE SURE.

maniacmayhem5129d ago

He cant make that type of decision, he's just a grunt...no offense.

NateNater5129d ago

By saying "He" are you referring to me? lol

RedPawn5128d ago

It's lines from the movie Aliens.

I guess I should finish it "None taken", in response to Maniac.
