GC 2008: PSN lineup reveals Warhawk expansion, Savage Moon

by James Ransom-Wiley { Aug 20th 2008 at 4:00PM }

Sony packed a suitcase full of PSN titles for its trip to Leipzig, with at least one new face emerging from the bag: Savage Moon. Sony describes the game as "classic tower strategy" with a catch ... it's in space! Players are assigned to protect a planetary outpost that's being overrun by "gigantic, ravenous space bugs" (true story). You know the drill: plop towers in the most ideal positions to handle the infestation and convert kill points into better weapons.

In addition, more details about the third Warhawk expansion have been released. Dubbed, Operation: Fallen Star, the premium add-on introduces a forested location, Tau Crater, where, sure enough, some "experimental technology" is recovered from a crashed Chernovan warship: Jetpacks! The booster pack also includes 10 new battlefields. (A coinciding free update will add two new game modes and Trophies).

We've posted the debut trailer for Operation: Fallen Star along with the complete Games Convention 2008 PSN lineup after the break.

Why is everyone acting like those 2 game modes haven't already been implemented?

HERO mode and COLLECTION have been there since update 1.4.

Anyways, Jetpacks FTW

For a moment there, I thought the Warhawk expansion was going to be a tower defense game.

Rofl, I know, I was really confused by the title.

Same, lol

It seems like Warhawk gets almost as much love as Team Fortress 2.

Wow, Warhawk has legs.

If the jetpacks make this game anything like Tribes, I might have to buy the game and all that juicy DLC.

Why oh why? I've just gotten over my warhawk addiction and you lure me back in with another expansion. Oh well :) I admit defeat.

Nate @ Aug 20th 2008 4:21PM

Wow, Savage Moon looks pretty cool. I love me some tower defense, and with graphics like that... man, sweet. I just hope it plays well.

Oh yeah, and please let there be co-op both on and offline.

I love how Warhawk keeps on getting all this love. The combination of free updates plus DLC booster packs keep on making this great game even greater.

What about Intelligent Qube for us Americans. We need all the intelligence we can get.

j.howlett @ Aug 20th 2008 4:42PM

is that the ps1 title or are they doing it over for psn? i rented that game years ago and loved it.

I love the fact that they're still supporting this game, and with the new expansio nand trophies, looks like i'll be playing some more. Also, all things considered, this game basically costed me retail of a regular PS3/360 game, and yet it's just as good. I'm at 13 hours so far, and plenty more with a new map and trophies. PLENTY.
