Anyone play Warhawk yet?

Load up the game for the first time ever. Jump in a server called "Sinkilla2" because it was low pinging and around 12 people in it. I was trying to get the hang of flying/changing weapons and basicly getting killed left and right. After the round was over I noticed that sinkilla had 17 kills another guy had 6 or 7 and everyone else including me had zero except one guy who had -1. I figured sinkilla must have been in the beta. Anywho in the next round I found a missle turret and was trying to figure that out. Once I figured how to get a lock I shot down sinkilla and his wingman. I ran for a while and found a flak cannon and was able to shoot down one person. Then ran over to another missle turret where I was able to get sinkilla again. Then what do you know I got banned from that server. LOL. Its bad enough that some people are way better than others but to ban anybody who starts to get the hang of the game just so you can keep dominating?

Yeah I think the few on Sharkies that have a PS3, might have read the reviews and stayed away.

I would post such a topic on a PS3 centric forum.

from what I've read and saw of the game I gotta admit I really liked it...it just seems like one of those games that I'd really go for

I want to play it but I'm not positive...was still waiting to see a bit of feedback. I started playing WoW again and it's hard to draw me away from it .

It's getting pretty good reviews, actually...

They really need to put some sort of training missions in this game. Its pretty hard to learn when your getting killed every 5 seconds. Just started playing it last night and slowly getting the hang of things.

There have been plenty of PS3 games that are getting good reviews, though admittedly there hasn't been anything that has gotten great reviews.

Funny that the first three that pop into my head (Warhawk, Heavenly Sword, and Motorstorm), all got an 83% average on Gamerankings.

Here I go again, falling for an obvious troll post.

If I had a PS3, I'd probably love Warhawk.

Resistance is pretty good also. Most of the other games suck. Ninja Gaiden got the highest rating I believe.
