I had to Google to check this was a PS3 game.

And make it your avarage shooter?
No way. The beauty of the game lies in the seamless combination of both.
Besides, you should look at the game thinking about what it does before arguing about how it looks. For something that combines both aerial and ground based combat seamlessly while retaining a very decent look with a fairly awesome number of units around I'm impressed. Ground sections alone look even better than most of the 3rd person shooters out there.
This bitching is nonsense. It's like bitching about GTA: San Andreas graphics compared to MGS3 one.

Why do they always insist on ****ing ground missions in flying games? I was really looking forward to this but now it seems like it'll be a Star Fox Assault repeat. Good flying stuff marred heavily by on-foot stuff. But I'll still give it a chance, it'd be foolish not to. I'm a bit concerned though to say the least.

Yeah. Just give me my swarms of planes with tons of missles flying around please, hold the ground missions.kevm3 said:

Colors used in these screens remind me of next-gen Halo 1, which is awesome.
What happened is that ground portions in this game look much better than the first time it was shown, and finally up to par with flying portions.Ginko said:

It really does look like an updated Battalion Wars. :/

That ground stuff looks terrible, and from the preview it sounds like there's going to be quite a bit of it.
Take a look at some multiplayer sessions from back at TGS

It can be unique without shitty ground missions. =p The flight stuff doesn't look unique but it sure looks pretty and fun.

Latest screens of Warhawk from October 2006
That is honestly the best looking flying game out there on any platform. The game looks amazing now that they added the depth of field effect and enhanced the explosions. Although word out in the dev community is that this game is having development problems and might be canned.

I don't. I haven't played it. But almost every time a developer does something like this, it doesn't work. Either make it a flying game or don't. Maybe the ground stuff will be tolerable, but personally, when I buy a game like this where the main draw is the flight combat, that's what I want.
What part of "you have the option to deviate from the main mission to do whatever you like" don't you understand? Why take out the ground missions when it's an accessory. This game is a sandbox game on a massive scale. It's scale and scope goes beyond anything except maybe Just Cause, and I believe the game world is supposed to be bigger. It's also going for battles of the scale of a NNN, or Heavenly Sword. It's like if you threw Ace Combat, a tank game and fps together, then sprinkled in elements of NNN/HS in there with the size of the battles. You don't have to land your ship and run around, unless you want to. WTF should they remove that?
Second, a few of those screens are 4:3 aspect ratio. What's up with that? I don't remember seeing ANY SDTV shots of this game, so those look new to me. Anyway, the visuals have always concerned me a bit with this game, but I'm willing to allow it the balance of time. When it's shown near completion, then I'll bitch or gloat. But calling this a PS2 game? That's just ridiculous. People who compare any next-gen game to a current-gen game are just plain dumb. Even DOA4, which is arguably the most current-gen-looking game released so far (most notable one at least) is still distinctly next-gen. Get off that flamebait already. That should be instant ignore list fodder. PEACE.

I didn't wanna be the first one to say it so I see you went and did it already,heh.
I'm not liking the art designs either,looks very uninspired. And why do the textures look sorta washed out and smeared as well?
Keep the game in the labs and give it more development time. The PS3 can do much more than this,easily.

Nothing going around you. One plane and one massive environment that's all that game is going for it.

Flight simulator is choppy as hell even on a dual core intel and Battlestation miday isn't that impressive. Try again chump
Warhawk = massive environments, a lot of enemy fighters, ability to land anywhere and get out, etc... those games don't compare
