This game is by far the most intense game that I've ever played. The graphics aren't superb, but the game play makes up for it. You will LOVE this game after you put in some time and get good. Until that time, you may hate it. I broke my new 52" LCD by throwing the controller while playing this game. Yeah, I got issues, but the game is GREAT!!!

I enjoy this game very much. It is one of those games that can be picked up and played for any amount of time and put down when necessary. Having kids, it's really important to me to be able to drop whatever I'm doing if someone needs help.

The downside is there are some inappropriate people playing the game so i sometimes have to take off my headset so i don't hear the comments.

The headset could be better but for the price it's hard to beat.

I had just recently bought a PS3 and had been reviewing websites for the best games for the system. I saw Warhawk multiple times and downloaded the demo as soon as they released it. I couldn't get enough! The demo only allows you to play one version of one map and only in one game mode: Capture the flag. I played that demo for hours and hours and had so much fun I decided I had to buy the full game.

Pros:
1- Beautiful game - great aesthetics.
2- Very enjoyable vehicles (I haven't been too big a fan of the Halo 1-2 vehicles, though I haven't played Halo 3).
3- Online multiplayer keeps every game interesting.
4- Up to 4 player split screen on one console/TV (I haven't tried it but I'm very happy they included this feature).
5- Great weapon variety and balance (though I agree with another reviewer that it is annoying to be gunning someone down with automatic fire only to have them close the distance and cut you down in one swipe with their combat knife).
6- Tons of customization options for your player and Warhawk.
7- Tons of rank advancements, medals, and awards to keep you striving to try new things.
8- An aim-assist feature helps compensate a bit for the frustrating precision limitations inherent to console gaming (compared to mouse aiming on a PC).
9- The Warhawks themselves represent an entire new game in and of themselves - there is so much you can do with them that even if you become a master at ground tactics you can still get slaughtered in the air unless you hone those skills as well.
10- The game provides lots of opportunities (mostly linked to the vehicles) for excellent collaborative teamwork.

Cons:
1- Some of the levels are so massive (on certain gameplay settings) that even with 32 players it can seem impossible to ever break a CTF stalemate.
2- The assault rifle needs to be more powerful at close range to avoid the annoying scenario I described above (I think it might actually get more powerful at close range but not enough, IMO).
3- The Anti-Air flak guns need to be more powerful - they are very difficult to use meaningfully unless the sky is swarming with Warhawks, in which case you can shoot anywhere and hit something (but you'll also probably be blown up before you manage to shoot anyone down).
4- The tank often feels like it's not strong enough - it's a tank for crying out loud! But if you get 2-3 enemy soldiers throwing grenades you can be toast in like 2 seconds. I guess they couldn't make it too powerful but it also feels like it provides a false sense of security and that you might as well hop in a 4x4 unless you need the firepower.
5- The weapons switching system is awkward at first but you'll quickly get the hang of it.

Overall, I find this game tremendously enjoyable. You should definitely download the demo and give it a whirl - but be warned, you'll get hooked.

Although this game was introduced at launch, I have recently purchased it and I am addicted. It is just fun even if your skill set is week like mine.
