Greatest Warhawk Moments

With rumors of Santa Monicas next project on the rise, Starhawk, the supposed successor of one of the still most played online multi player shooters for the PS3; Warhawk, many gamers are recalling some of their most fondest memories of playing. Some may be insane kill streaks, ridiculous laser strike kills, and down right absurd vehicular man slaughters, but one things for sure; there was never a dull moment.

My greatest most satisfying moment in Warhawk happened when I first picked up my PS3 and played the game, I had a buddy play online via split screen with me. He was the hard core 360 fan boy type. So we are about 30 seconds into the map on Archipelago, he's following me to a jeep when he said "dude this game sucks, where is everyone?" I told him "The maps are big and it just started, give it sec." When all of a sudden -- "zzzhhhooo", I sniper domes me from the supply room at the top of the map, and he's like "oh shit!" In which case he turns around to run away and gets tow missiled to smithereens, in which he yells, "wtf are you serious, that just happened?!" He owns a PS3 now and still plays Warhawk.

Another was a blunder, when I laser struck a warhawk. I was targeting a drop ship with the designator when as soon as it charged, the drop ship moved and an enemy warhawk zoomed right into it. I then proceeded to almost die of laughter on the floor in front of my couch.

Not Santa Monica anymore... Lightbox Interactive you ignorant little brat. Spicy demon child from Planet Iwantmore.

TOO PAWNED5645d ago

If it has single player and if they fix controls i am going to get it.

unrealgamer585645d ago

what's wrong with the controls? I like them

koehler835645d ago

First of all, Lightbox was NEVER Santa Monica, they were Incognito.

Second, Santa Monica continues to help with development of the game. They host producer meetings, milestones and greenlights as well contribute to cinematic and music composition.

TOO PAWNED5645d ago (Edited 5645d ago )

No exactly. In Santa Monica that is where Sonys "main base" in USA is, where rest of devs come to show their game to Sony higher ups. That does meen Santa mOnica helps on every single game. We know when they help, like in case of that game company or Ready at Dawn.

is one of my favorite games of all time. This is a true gem & I still play it quite regularly.

My best moment is between holding and harassing from an enemy's base on the island map for most of a game, and taking out at least half of 16 player group with binoculars during a capture the flag session while they were trying to reclaim their flag - I grabbed it and scored the point after!

My worst would be taking out a fresh tank on foot, only to see four more coming up a hill.

First of all Warhawk in underrated - it was one of the most fun MP games around - just incredible.

I remember playing CTF on Badlands. Some dude got into our base, jacked our flag, stole a jeep and was taking off down the road. Me and some other foot soldiers where shooting the jeep and it was smoking and flaming - another bullet or two and that thing was going to blow sky high....I was sure we had him! Just as his jeep is about to explode I hear this loud whooshing sound and this drop ship swoops down, a wall of turret fire from the drop ship started leveling all the foot soldiers and it lifts the jeep up and takes off!

It was just after Omega Dawn came out so I hadn't seen a drop ship in action yet - it was so epic right out of an action movie where the hero gets saved at the last second.

Scottyabanks5648d ago

I had a similar occurrence, I was getting away with a jeep and I had a gunner and the passenger had the flag, the gunner took out a warhawk trailing us, I dodged a tank shell, and we were in the clear. We drove under the last tunnel to our side of the map, when we were greeted by not light at the end but a drop ship, it turned, dropped it's gun turrets, and I was like, "oohhh shhiitt", I power slid into reverse, making for the other end of the tunnel, but as soon as I turned around, the tank I dodged a second earlier was waiting, and "boom", that was the end of that.

This was one of my first PS3 games, and it was real fun. Loved the split-screen support too.

I didn't play it much (I borrowed it from a friend),, but I fondly remember setting up mines in CTF games and playing CTF. It was a fun game.

Definitely overlooked, and I would love a sequel. It has a solid community even to this day, though they are all full of top-level players who I will never be able to compete with anymore.

WiZmans World Re;Try review - ChristCenteredGamer

CCG writes - "WiZmans World Re;Try has some really interesting things going for it, and some cool mechanics and visuals that few other JRPGs do. It is clear some real care and effort went into this game. However, between the sheer amount of inevitable, unavoidable grinding; the lack of depth to most of the combat; the just-okay music and sound effects; and the moral issues that really make me question how this game got away with an E10+ rating, it's difficult for me to recommend. This is definitely a "play with a podcast or Netflix binge-session on in the background" type of game, even if you are in love with the things that make this one stand out. If that's your cup of tea, then WiZman's World Re;Try will provide 35+ hours of it for a relatively reasonable cost."
