8.8

IGN reviews Warhawk, scores 8.8

How do you know when you've got something special on your hands? It could be what happens when you take the power of a new console to make a spiritual successor to an earlier title, using the hardware to accomplish things that weren't possible years before. Maybe it becomes apparent when you can completely change the primary focus of a title and discover that the redesign is much stronger than the original concept. Or perhaps it's the new concept that generates and sustains momentum for your product by itself. In the case of Warhawk, all of the above definitely apply.

i was actually hoping for at least 1 9 review:(. 8.8 is good though

cloud3606075d ago

I was expecting gameplay to get the higest. coz its multiplayer game...

or is gameplay like battle system and usong comobos and moves.

barom6075d ago

I also would think Gameplay would get highest scores. I also thought Graphics would get a lot lower. I'm however very pleased to hear this review xD

monoknacker6075d ago (Edited 6075d ago )

i think it desrved a 9 at least going on how they scored it

heroman7116075d ago

dude 8.8 is AAA. it might not be 9 but is very damn close. its fanboys that say AAA has to be 9

doomsonyman6075d ago

nothing but triple A games for the ps3

nasim6075d ago

a genuine AAA after RESISTANCE and MOTORSTORM

HS and LAIR are also AAA --no mater whether some sites agree /not

BloodySinner6075d ago

8.8 isn't triple A. Over 9+ is.

Greysturm6075d ago

Reviewers were caliing it AAA whatever that means so its anybodys guess what the offcial AAA score actually is...

(I too thought it was over >=9 )

skinzfan6075d ago

The reviewer thought that it was a aaa title.

"It may be multiplayer only, it may not have bots, and it may have a steep learning curve, but Warhawk lives up to its billing: a AAA experience that is an adrenaline rush for online fans. Large worlds, balanced combat mechanics and impressively deep server mechanics help this fast paced game soar. Regardless if you happen to prefer the retail version or the downloadable PSN title, this Sony exclusive shouldn't pass PS3 owners by."

Awesome review:

"It may be multiplayer only, it may not have bots, and it may have a steep learning curve, but Warhawk lives up to its billing: a AAA experience that is an adrenaline rush for online fans. Large worlds, balanced combat mechanics and impressively deep server mechanics help this fast paced game soar. Regardless if you happen to prefer the retail version or the downloadable PSN title, this Sony exclusive shouldn't pass PS3 owners by."

Ever since the beta this game has rocked it's so much fun...

snakeak6075d ago

they say "steep learning curve" like it's a bad thing. That's what rocks about this game. It's like when you first start CounterStrike and everyone whoops you, it gives you a reason to improve. I can't wait til I'm a pro flying around. It may take me a year, but I'll get there damnit! :D

Gamespot-equals-EGM6074d ago (Edited 6074d ago )

Although I think Warhawk is a great game and deserves the good reviews, this game is sort of the anti-Wii. Due to Warhawk's learning curve, its a rather exclusive gaming experience. Grandmothers need not apply.

Don't think we'll be seeing Warhawk in the nursing homes anytimes soon. The complexity would probably give some of the residents strokes.

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.

titans99991080d 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.

SegaSaturn6691861d ago

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

mkis0071861d ago

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

Knushwood Butt1860d 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.

PoSTedUP1861d 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.

porkChop1990d ago

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

MONOLITHICIDE1990d ago

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

TheSaint1990d ago

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

Babadook71990d ago

Yup. Remaster or better yet. A remake.

FunAndGun1990d 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!

Sevir1990d 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

Concertoine1990d ago

I miss the simplicity of early 7th gen shooters.
