player skill is the most important factor in winning #Starhawk games -- not who has the "highest-level perk".

Yes, this is what Core Gamers likes!

Simon_Brezhnev5107d ago

Yeah i dont like perks. Its like having a game genie on. LOL

Dimitri said that Warhawk players have actual skill, and thats what Starhawk is gonna be bringing in, those players with actual skill. If there are any noobs too the franchise with no skill, they will have to learn.

Warhawk had a tutorial mode tho, and Starhawk has single player too so there is no excuse for anyone to "suck at the game" unless your trying to multitask eating pizza, talking to your girl, girls in the way, on the phone, blu-tooth in one ear, texting...

Good to hear :). I find Warhawk to be an amazing game, and I'm sure Starhawk will follow suit, if not deliver more "awes" in my first 10 mins of playing it.

Good to know.

"That's some good ol' fashioned ear-candy right there - instead of killstreaks or upgrades giving players an unfair advantage on the battlefield, you can only 'pwn' in Starhawk if you can pull off that perfect headshot.

Or fly into someone."

I hate those people who cant beat you in the air so they fly into you.

Are you talking about the people that just hit you with another plane or put mines on the plane and then hit you? I do the latter when someone in a plane is really irritating me, but I prefer slamming a jeep loaded with mines into the plane. I love hearing "What the Fuck!" and "How was I killed with mines?".

I only do this when someone is really pissing me off.

Edit: Pintheshadows definitely has the right idea.

Pintheshadows5107d ago

Remind me not to piss you off.

1Victor5107d ago

lol I love to do the same especially to the jeep rammers. mines are the cure for warhawk stupidity.

Not a single Reistance? Fuck this article.

Starhawk over Warhawk?...... Dude, NO ONE should listen to you.

Odd choices for "best" more like you settled as these being the "best" that available to you at the time, cause a lot of these blow or were average to poor performers that ended up in bargain bin.

Missing too many great sci-fi titles here. The Void, The Resistance Series, Killzone 2 and 3, Enslaved, man.. there were so many, this is redicu-list.

FreeckyCake443d ago

Nobody should listen to you either with that attitude.

OtterX443d ago

I agree that Starhawk shouldn't be above Warhawk, however I must say that Starhawk multiplayer was incredible for its time! Many people wrote it off bc the single player was quite terrible, bc it was basically 1 huge tutorial for the multiplayer. But I can tell you never spent any significant amount of time in MP. It was doing incredibly tense base building w air, foot and land vehicle (and mech!) combat long before Fortnite was ever a thing.

I bet it would have been much better received if it had just ditched the story mode all together. So many people like yourself completely wrote it off based on reviews by reviewers that let the criticism of single player weigh heavily on their scores. I bet you didn't even play it.

Friendlygamer443d ago

The riddick games are some of the best stealth titles ever, highly underrated

YourMommySpoils443d ago

What games? All recall plating was Escape from Butcher Bay.

Friendlygamer443d ago (Edited 443d ago )

There's also the less acclaimed 'assault on dark Athena'

( also, not saying this to you specifically but there's both resistance and killzone games on the list, it's amazing how even something so simple and innocent as a game list can be turned into misinformed vitriol here lol )

jznrpg443d ago

Glad to see Resonance of Fate. Enslaved was pretty good too. I’m sure there are others nobody has listed but I’m too tired to try and think of anything

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.

RPGer1520d 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.

titans99991520d 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!
