Warhawk downloadable via PSN tonight

You should really learn how to reply to who you are talking with. Makes it easier to know whom you are talking to.

I'm only playing with ya ;)

It is more to reply in the same "topic"

So say you wanted to reply to Ninja....you would press the Reply button under your name and your response would be placed in that column..

I suck at verbally explaining things, so sorry if this doesnt help.

So you decline to answer the question then? You can claim everything about it is mediocre, yet won't give any examples? Just, FYI, I played the game for over a month during the beta. The vast majority of beta players loved the game.

Sorry, didn't mean to skip over your question concerning game play. Also, sorry for the responses being everywhere, as I'm just now figuring out how to reply to specific comments or "threads" on this site.

As for the particulars, I thought the ground combat was very weak. That was the game's foremost fault in the time I spent with it. I know the game is trying to be all things to all people (i.e. 3PS and air combat), but I felt like the ground combat was indicative of a cheap third person shooter. Repetitive, too. Almost like a poor borrowing from both Mercenaries and Halo, actually. Maybe more Mercs than Halo, but it wasn't done very well. How much ground combat was included with the beta?

The air combat was okay. Just okay. A poor borrowing from something like Crimson Skies, almost, especially with the turrets that are available on the ground. Environments were okay, but certainly nothing spectacular or anything you'd expect to see on either the PS3 or 360 game.

You may not realize this yet, but this game won't be well-received with the general public. Its pre-order numbers say as much, in fact. You did the beta and you like the game .... I get it. Enjoy!

OK, but you just keep saying things weren't done very well. In what way? Take ground combat for example... Too slow? Unbalanced weapons? What?

The beta pretty much had everything in it on one form or another. I actually spent most of my time with the ground combat. I mostly stuck with using tanks and the snipe rifle. I just used the Warhawks to get across the maps... since some of them are huge. Anyway, I thought the ground combat was fine. It's not crazy fast or feature a bunch of dodge moves like a game of UT or anything, but with the jeeps, tanks, turrets, and your standard compliments of weapons (pistol, rifle, sniper, flame thrower, grenades, proximity mines, etc...) there was certainly plenty to do.

Keep in mind that I only had an hour to play the game and have probably watched it for an additional 30 minutes between watching others play and the videos you can find on IGN or comparable sites. That said, you would agree that a game should be able to grab you in an hour, correct?

For whatever reason, Warhawk didn't grab me. The graphics aren't great and it looks like this game could run on the Wii. The gameplay is familiar and the things they borrow from other game (notably Mercs) aren't done as well as the games they borrow them from. I'd rather play Mercs when on foot and Halo 3 when I'm in a vehicle. I can't really think of a defining moment when I said I officially think this game is garbage, so my opinion is based more on the overall feel I got from the game and less from any one or two particular items. Hope that makes sense.

On a random note, this game has not done well with its pre-order numbers. Not at all. Maybe a ton of people are planning on going the download route, but I highly doubt it. Low (relatively speaking) scores for Heavenly Sword and potentially Lair may help it out in terms of sales dollars, but that remains to be seen.

Anyway, enjoyed the banter and enjoy the game!

lol wii graphics, sorry but there's no way you played the game... you fail even at trolling.

Actually a lot of people were finished with their download within an hour.

A lot of people also enjoy this game thus far.

And no, you won't get it in stores before the download is up, cause 1, the downloaders are finished, and 2, the game won't be here until the 29th.

You fail at each of your trolling points.

you fail, please try again ^_^

Is your avatar meant to be a black box?

I have high hopes for UT3, and plan on buying R&C because I liked previous games a lot and know what I'm going to get.

LOL, why do I get relegated to fanboyism and you to personal preference? Seems like a biased rating system, don't you think?

So it doesn't matter if there are only at max 3 reviews available for the titles you mention?

On gamerankings.com a meta review sight there are the following:

Heavenly Sword:

IGN 7 out of 10
PLAY MAGAZINE 10 out of 10

(Only 2 review available as of now)

Warhawk:

No Reviews yet, only previews, guess that means your talking about previews of an old version. That shouldn't stop you from spreading your FUD.

Lair:

EGM 5.5 of 10
GAMEPRO 3.75 of 5
PLAY MAGAZINE 9 of 10

(Only three official reviews available. So that only leave about 47 more reviews yet to come. Your so eager to spread your FUD you can't even wait to compare completed meaningless reviews of products.)

What a joke.

but that's the thing. i could care less about what a "professional critic" has to say.

Take movies for instance..there are plenty of movies that critics shit on that people love.

Anyway, the games that the "professional critics" say are AAA for 360, i have not enjoyed. I played GoW for like a half hour. Bioshock seems pretty generic from watching my friend play.

Honestly, no system has a Must-have game. Video games are for entertainment. If you are entertained, then you got your money's worth.

Why shit on someone who wants to play warhawk if they find it fun and worth their $60? because some critic didn't like it?

And lets get one thing straight, heavenly sword,Lair,and Warhawk were games that were supposed to be system sellers. Alot of people use to add these three games too their lists of games too look foward too from sony. But now that a couple of reviews came out,these games are getting swept under the rug. 47 reviews more shag...hahahahaha your grasping at straws.
