It showed so much promise when we first saw the flight combat. I still hope that it'll turn around like Crimson Skies did. Wasn't that facing similar problems and a new group came in and saved it? Turned out to be a great game.

yepp. Still sold like shit though, so no sequal :(

I would kill for a sequal on 360.

You have your videogame forums mixed up. GAF has always liked Warhawk. Go back to Gamefaqs. I think that's who you are thinking about.

Reading comprehension FTL.

I'm saying that I was under the impression Sony fans on GAF have always like Warhawk. Which is why I was surprised to find folks in here shrugging off this rumor with comments like "crappy" etc.

So off topic and brainwashed it hurts but. Factor 5 is working on a second PS3 title correct? *

incorrect

Factor 5's second PS3 game titled animal warfare or something was canceled or put on hold and Getaway was never really a game only a tech demo

Twisted Metal Black?
War of the Monsters?

True, though, they have seemed to struggle as of late. I remember Singletrac.

those are oldies, I was talking about something newer, like the last 3 or 4 years

Dude, the Getaway is definitely not just a tech demo. There is a game on the way based on that tech demo.

You know what? If you want to call out "GAF," some amorphous, shape-shifting non-entity as a holder of some singular opinion to be ridiculed, then you need to step the **** off. There are individuals in the thread saying Warhawk is/was crappy, GAF is not saying Warhawk was crappy-- and if you want to call out those individuals, do it with proof from the past. Calling out "GAF" is easy, cheap, and flamebait.

Give me a break.

Nicely put.

This post wasn't that bad. Getter a little better.


The only reason it's bad is that it's incorrect. On ALL accounts by the way. As in, go thru each of his complaints (millions spent on my game + Warhawk being in trouble+ no hits on Ps2) and you will find them not correct at all. But good try... asshole.

after Getaway London I thought they might have learned a lesson

The game industry spews out crap based on what sells...not based on what's good necessarily.

The franchises setting, idea, and style are intriguing...it's just the execution that usually sucks. Maybe new hardware can help them better realize what they were trying to express before.
I wouldn't bet on it

I've been surprised nobody posted this before until I realized the page was deleted. Yesterday the following was posted on the rumor report page:

"Weekend Update & WarHawk
from Rumor Reporter by Bruce

I’m going to be updating the blog a little later on Monday. Why?

Well, let’s just say I have some critical WarHawk news to post about, and can’t really post it until I learn more today. Certainly a report that you won’t want to miss if you own a PS3."

That is still on my Google Reader account, but the page that is linked has been deleted (hmm). I think this pretty well proves that WarHawk is the game he is talking about.

Shit, I might be crazy, but it doesnt sound like a terrible idea.

Make it MP only with around 30-40 max players at once, buddy list integration, deathmatch and team based online modes (TDM/CTF). Different aircrafts/vehicles and weapons, around 5 or so maps.

For 20 dollars or under and I'd buy it. It could be 3 gigs for all I care, I'd download it as long as they release it after they fix the background/resume downloading in march.

But I have a feeling it wont turn out like that. :/


I'll make it easier on them and only ask for 16 players online. And have only 4 maps instead of 5.

BUT make it $15
. I'll buy it day one.


How many of you guys would buy this Warhawk downloadable?

Che is kind of right, though.

People in this thread have not only turned on Warhawk, but Incog and SCEA as entities.

It reminds me of Nintendo fans when Retro canceled some games and Metroid Prime looked to be in the toilet.

EDIT: Bravo, Jaffe.

million spent on your PSP game = got the info from your blog

No ps2 hits in the last three or four years. Yeah they made Downhill Domination, Twisted Metal, and War of Monsters but those are oldies

finally are you saying warhawk isn't canceled?

The Fucking MAN.
Doom:

I am saying millions were NOT spent on my game...I never said that in my blog. And if I did, I am sorry for calling you out but since we did not spent that much, I would be stunned if I wrote that we had.

As for Incog's track record, TM:BLACK sold amazing, TM HEAD ON sold AMAZING; the other games were did well with reviews and have many fans but did not deliver the sales I'm sure Incog would have wanted. But they were both solid, creative games loved by many. They were in no way bombs.

I can't speak to the WarHawk situation as it's not my place. But I can tell you that what you guys are saying about the title is not correct.

But the other side of that is that they didn't make ANY PS2 titles in the timeframe you're mentioning. So it's not like they made titles after Downhill Domination that failed.. at least not to my knowledge.

I have heard that warhawk could be moved to a downloadable game on PSN for a couple months now, but it was all word of mouth stuff, so no idea on how accurate it was. but that game can't be in good shape right now.

the addition of the ground levels just seemed to mess it up, imo.

I know that. That's the thing. I didn't see many Sonyfans shurgging it off as crappy. It seems to me that they want the game and are sad to hear the news.

Considering the hysteria surrounding the console "wars" on the internet my guess is that the rumoured game they are referring to is....Calling All Cars.
Only four levels Mr. Jaffe?

oh yeah I forgot about Head on, that was pretty good. Nice to hear that Warhawk isn't canceled or anything like that. Sorry about spreading false info! I honestly thought you wasted millions on the PSP project :D

I sure hope it isn't canceled. Not to mention, it's featured on the back of the PS3 box; clearly, this is a title they want people to pay attention to. So canceling it would not be a very good thing.

So Doom thinks he is qualified to argue with David F***in' Jaffe on what went on with HIS game.

...I've seen it all, now.
