The multiplayer beta is up for download for PS Plus members. Gave it a go last night, just a quick one. I didn't mind Warhawk, it had potential, just didn't quite reach it. This one was extremely baffling at first, but once the game went on and my team started working their shit out, the brilliance of this game really exploded. The XP you gather up from kills, barrels and other such things can be converted into base parts. Put up walls, guns, force fields, giant beam cannons, jet pack dispensers, and vehicle depo's. You can set up multiple bases around the map and you gain dominance, none of it seems predefined, just based purely on whether you can actually defend it or not. Worth a look if you can. |

I think my ps downloaded it today, hope so otherwise fuck knows what it was downloading. Even if not, I'll be downloading it and giving it a whirl, I quite liked the original (ps3) warhawk even if I came to the party a bit late. It has great potential for crazy shit going on, hope starhawk is the same. |

Well, it wasn't starhawk it was another big ass gt5 patch. I did download starhawk though. Then another 20 minutes for the patch. Then another 5 minutes for the version update. Then it wouldn't connect to the game servers.

Yeah, it's a bit of a download-fest to get going, but I never had a problem finding a game once I was in. I think they may have swayed me towards a purchase with this one. I was going to let it slide by before this, but I'm liking it. Between this and Twisted Metal, I seem to be lining up for a lot of PS3 multi again. |

Twisted metal is a must for me. Might give starhawk a try again in the next few days, when does the beta run out? |

The only game I'm keen to throw my cash down on in the immediate future is sounding even better.

Those space levels were awesome. I should fire up UT3 on the PS3 and see what's doing on that. Playing as Master Chief on a Mario level on PS3 = strangely satisfying win. Starhawk doesn't really feel like that though. I can't help but draw a comparison to C&C: Renegade, but done completely right. It shoots well, the base parts are similar in function, but witht he added bonus of being able to put it anywhere, with total intention to progress it forward in the battle. It all just works really well from the little I played of it. It took me one game hands on and I was sold. |

I never managed to grab this game when it came out, and the price remained at full retail until just a couple of weeks ago when it dropped to $50. Then I was worried that the community had died out in it, but it still seems to be going strong. Now they've announced THIS! I think I'll be playing it soon. |

I'm the same Hiss, didn't want to get it at full price, saw it cheap in JB but thought the community may have died. I quite enjoyed warhawk, and at 20 bucks will be very tempted to give starhawk a ago. Hopefully the new price poin will ensure there's enough new players as well
