Starhawk (PS3)

GTTV has the reveal, and everything points to this being Starhawk.

Rumored details leaked back in April:

Quote:
We spoke to a Sony employee who, understandably, wished to remain anonymous. He confirmed to us that a sequel to Warhawk is indeed real, having been in development for a number of years now. It's official title is 'Starhawk'. What follows are all the details we gathered;
  • Starhawk will be revealed before E3 2011 - in fact, mid May is the current date for the official public outing.
  • The game remains a PS3 exclusive. However, Starhawk will ship only on Blu-ray, rather being a digital title on PSN, and available as a physical disc, like Warhawk.
  • The main gameplay elements remain much the same. Starhawk is a third-person shooter, with jeeps, APCs, tanks, and now spaceships.
  • According to our source, you cannot fly from a planet into space. Some maps are set on a planet, with dogfights taking place in the air, while others are in space, with small areas for ground combat. The game is still set in another universe, so Earth will not feature.
  • The game will retain the slightly cartoonish visuals - no ultra-gritty reboot in sight.
  • Starhawk runs on a brand new engine that provides stunning visuals, explaining the jump from digital title to Blu-ray disc.
  • While the main body of the game is still online multiplayer, there is a single-player component.
  • Starhawk is the game Dylan Jobe can't wait to talk about.
Sony trademarked Starhawk back in 2009

Sony America has trademarked the name "Starhawk", adding weight to rumours that Warhawk creator Dylan Jobe's newly-formed LightBox Interactive studio is taking the series into space.

Loved Warhawk. Still play it sometimes (when the PSN is up and running of course.)

This part makes me even more excited...

re: Starhawk (PS3)

I know Warhawk is a game some people never were able to get into. I never had a PS3 but I got into it because of a friend. Lots of hours wasted on four-player online split screen, dominating servers until we got booted for being too good. I want to get a PS3 just for Starhawk so hopefully whenever it releases I'll have the funds to do so.

re: Starhawk (PS3)

1. I had no idea Warhawk was popular at all but I've been hearing about this Starhawk game like the first one was the beginning of a huge franchise

2. It's funny that they'll announce a multi-player focused game with PSN being down for so long

If I went any bigger, it would not have properly fit with my equipment, so I had to optimize. I'm okay with it, but I also know what I'm missing with those five inches. :)

I had Warhawk & I thought it was a pretty good game. Flying was a blast, doing fly-bys & gunning down foot soldiers. haha

Maybe the PSN will be back up right before the announcement will be made?

It is kind of funny though.
