Xbox 360 Halo 3 and Sony PS3 Warhawk at war: How can you compare?

warhawk sucks halo 3 is the shit

Halo 3 is boring and looks last gen

Warhawk is one of the best multiplayer games ever created with fast and fluid gameplay and much more diversity than Galo 3

Warhawk’s solo campaign is about 8-12 hours shorter than Halo 3′s. And if you think the Halo 3 story sucks…

Gina ure stupid. warhawk doesnt even have an single player.its ONLINE only.and halo3 story sucks too hard. same stuff repeated over and over again…

What are you talking about Gina? Warhawk doesn’t have solo campaign. Warhawk is a online only game and it’s one of the best multiplayer games out there. You’re able to fly warhawks, drive jeeps, tanks, and man gunning stations. There’s so much action going on, the graphics are not as good as halo, but the action is probably more stimulating.

warhawk has no single player campaign. It is purely a multiplayer game, it evens says it on the cover. That makes it nearly impossible to compare with. there is no single player mode and thats way its so cheap.

i have played halo3 and seriously, its good, but id prefer to play warhawk or unreal tournament 3 when that comes out.

I have both and Warhawk is a nice game but the lack of community really shows up in that game. Half the poeple dont even have microphones this really takes away from the team aspect. Halo 3 I like alot more but its not a perfect game either. IMO the xbox will 9 out of 10 times be better online because of xbox live. You have heard the old saying you get what you pay for and with sonys online stance its free but it is so lacking I doubt anyone would pay for their service.

So Chris your saying that the xbox360 is not the better machinebecause it’s cost is less than the ps3. I guess you do get what you pay for RROD!!

WTF?

why do people slate each other I will never know, I’m shure both games (like all) have good and bad points & for starters ones an FPS the other is a TPS….so the question : “How can they compare Warhawk to Halo 3…..My answer, cos they are noobs!.

Those two games are very hard to be even compared, but Halo3 in overall is better because it ads the single player.On WarHawk case, very few gamers play it online, it`s anoying like that, dispite the very good aspect of the game.
But even thow is a very stupid comparison

Gina is just plain stupid, Stupid is as stupid does.

GINA:

Are u dumb?? If u were born that way i can forgive. WARHAWK does NOT EVEN HAVE A STORY!!! So how can it be shorter than GALO (which u can finish in 6 hours, pathetic for a FPS)??

Galo is so fucking over-rated, boring as fuck ‘shiny’ unrealistic 3shitty graphics and plus it’s an Unreal Tournament rip-off. If u had played Unreal u would know.

And Chris… yr complaining that nobody has a headset?? U silly boy, that has NOTHING to do with the game. Stick to the facts fool.

Of course nobody is gonna pay for Sony’s service ITs FREE!! Now paying for LIVE?? THAT is fucking crazy!! They already expect us to pay out our ass for a 32% failure rate machine, then expect us to pay for bloody add-ons that the PS3 already has, and 3shitty users have to pay more for games too. Bloody rip-off if u ask me. U fools make such a big deal about Galo3 u would think it should be the GREATEST game ever known to mankind but, it’s not. It’s not even the best FPS. Give the original Unreal, SOF 1 and 2 any day over Galo!!!

Gina, you just exposed yourself as a FUD spreading bot.

Chris – what are you on about? You cannot pay for Sony network? Its free? XBL is good, but its not cheap? The teamwork in Warhawk is amazing – I think you haven’t played it that much. Go play a lvl4 or lvl 6 CTF or Zone match – excellent.

As I have said before. Halo 3 is much of a muchness. Yes, there is the new shield, and the gfx are nice (although not consistant). Its the gameplay that makes Warhawk though – Halo3 is FPS, and thats it. Warhawk is a solid vehicle battle game, with heavy focus on infantry support. Whether its armour, or air. It really changes teamplay alot. And it has you looking out for your team members all the time (esp the dog fights). Theres nothing like that in Halo. There is no ’15 planes doghfighting above the battlefield, while trying to hold a zone with a handful of grunts’.

And imho. Thats where Halo3, while a great classic FPS, is not in the same league.

Btw Chris.. the community in Warhawk is quite excellent. Its not hard to meet ppl and get into clans and so forth. You are speaking like its not there. Warhawk is MP only. It has all the elements you need like XBL has on Halo 3.. so dont make out otherwise.

Dumbasses wut Gina meant is Halo has a 12-15 hour story and warhawk has a 12-15 hour shorter story (sarcasticaly saying it doesnt have a story)

by the way i agree with the author ive played both and if you like a fast action 32 player kill-fest in planes jeeps tanks and turrets buy warhawk but Halo 3 has the graphicsand FPS advantage you feel more immersed in the game because of it.. also WTF guys its halo though i think its still Halo 2.5

you guys are morons she was saying it is about 8-12 hours shorter in the campaign department because thats how long it takes to beat Halo 3. So what does that mean subtract 8 – 12 hours and that equals 0 hours hmmmm whats that mean no campaign. Next time think before reacting you fools like honestly can yas understand a joke.

Wow, I thought I was the only one that liked Warhawk better than Halo 3. Quite honestly, I come home and look forward to playing warhawk whilst Halo 3 only holds my interest slightly…After playing Warhawk’s fast speed, Halo feels very sluggish.

Wow really sad to see you guys come down on a great game just because you are immature fanboy’s.

Warhawk is a great game and pretty much the only game that goes into my PS3 as of late(not for long hehe)but it just is not better than halo 3 i am sorry.If you like the warhawks and the back story and do not like halo’s then of course you will say warhawk is better but that is entirely an opinion and other people would come up with another one.

Why do you think every single game site and magazine all say halo has the best console multiplayer ever?? oh i know its because microsoft pays them off right? No sorry guys its becasue how easy it is to play with your friends its how you can watch entire battles on replay films to check out strategy or just watch a really cool battle. Its about the new Forge mode where you can go into any map and change everything from spawn points to weps to vehicle’s.

You guys also make it seem like halo has no vehicles which could not be further from the point there is ton’s and each one can be manned by more than one person.

Look i love my PS3 and i love warhawk but it just isnt better it does not add even near the amount of content that halo has and it is not as polished and refined and the most important no other game is as easy to play with your friends and change every aspect of every map till you find exactly what you like.

I hope as soon as -Home- comes out for the PS3 it will add all the feature’s of xbox live because it does not matter what you say but live is superior and any video game journalist of game site worth their weight will till you the same.

I am not sure if you guys are just mad or what but i cant listen to you lie about everything. Halo3 can be beaten in 6-8 hours on the easiest difficulty level but guess what so can almost any otehr shooter on super easy. If you play halo 3 on herioc(which it says right when u pick it is the way the game is meant to be played)it takes 10-12 hours which is average for a FPS.I do play my 360 more right now becasue there is so many more games and ports turn out better because devs are lazy and dont use the PS3 power(hopefully that will change soon)But dont worry guys game’s are coming and coming soon then maybe you guys will be to busy playing instead of lying about other game’s.

Bottom line is if you are a fanboy you suck.Both consoles have advantage’s both console’s have disadvantage’s in 2008 and beyond both will have TONS of awesome game’s whatever your console of choice is i am happy for you just dont flat out lie about a game just because you eitehr hate it or cant get it on your console it just make’s ya look like a scared little fanboy. Rant off =)

Halo 3 is fun. Warhawk is fun.

Halo 3 is much easier to find a match than Warhawk but they are fixing that for Warhawk. Warhawk offers more I would choose Warhawk over Halo 3 for multiplayer but they are both really fun

To the people bashing Gina – have you ever heard of “SARCASM” before?

Let me explain – Halo 3′s campaign is 8-12 hours. Warhawk has no campaign at all. Thus, Halo 3′s campaign, as Gina sarcastically stated, is “is about 8-12 hours shorter than Halo 3’s.”

It’s funny. Unless she’s really serious, in which case please go ahead and keep bashing her because that is ridiculous.

BTW – both games are very, very good. I do have a personal preference (Halo 3), but I dig Warhawk too.

Warhawk is a downloadable game and has 2x more players and 2x bigger maps + Warhalk has dedidcated servers with FREE online, halo is laggy and you have to pay to play.

Is WarHawk worth buying a 599$ machine for(PS3)? **If not, i guess ima have to suffer horribly and continue to not have fun playing Halo 3 MP on my Xbox Live**

**Insert Sarcasm

Anyway, why are we comparing these two titles anyway? this whole thread is pointless. Fanboys can spin anything though.

Warhawk gameplay is more diverse, and more fun, simple as that. The graphics in Warhak, whilst not consoel defining, as good, but the gameplay is what makes Warhawk.

Halo feels like a tired rehash.

I don’t think “Gina” is being stupid. I think she was poking fun at warhawks lack of a solo campaign. Get it. Halo 3′s solo campaign is aprox 8-12 hours long. she was basically stating that there is no single player campaign in warhawk. kind of makes you all seem stupid for having not cought that.

uuuh, hello fanboys?? – I think you’ll find gina was being sarcastic. Halo 3′s story is (when played by wusses on normal rather than heroic or legendary – the way it should be played) 8-12 hours long, so you do the math. People you stupid shouldn’t be allowed to voice your opinions and devalue what the clued up PS3 supporters are saying (although they’ve not go much to shout about at the mo).

btw GroverFD – £40 for an entire year isnt cheap? Would you really rather have ludicrously substandard online gaming with zero community for a system which has no good games anyway that you paid through the ar$e for? Maybe cos you shelled out your life’s savings for a PS3 that £3.33 a month is seemingly beyond your budget

….and (if it wasnt blatantly obvious anyway) according to metacritic, I think you will find Halo 3 wins hands down:

Yours, looking forward to a good PS3 fanboy flaming
T

Never played Halo 3 with the fan base it has I’m sure its a good game, but I can’t imagen how much better it would be with out having the game play options you have in warhawk, I mean being able to lure your enemy to flying low into the terrain and having your teamate hidden, waiting for him to fly by on the ground and blast him out of the sky is PRICELESS!!!

To all who didn’t get it, GINA WAS KIDDING. SHE KNOWS WARHAWK DOESN’T HAVE A CAMPAIGN (OR STORY). THAT’S WHY H3′S CAMPAIGN (WHICH IS COINCIDENTALLY 8-12 HOURS LONG) IS 8-12 HOURS LONGER! (LONGER THAN ZERO!!!!!) Jeebus you guys are dumb as a bag of hammers.

you guys are STUPID! gina was trying a little something called “sarcasm” i think, im sure youve probably heard of it somewhere.

Warhawk is a great game, its fluid, graphically fine, and is a hell of a lot of fun to play. While it is true that less people on Warhawk have voice chat, why would you want to listen to someone tennager calling you an idiot for killing him for hours.

Honestly, Halo 3 is a fun game but it is, as many people have said, halo 2 in hd. There isnt anything new being brought into the FPS genre by Halo 3, and i just dont understand te hype…

Gina was making a joke about there not being a Single player mode on Warhawk you dumb asses……….

at “John”

The only likeness between halo 3 and UT is the fact that they are both first person shooters. the action in both are very different. If I’m not mistaking wasn’t halo 1 out just a couple of years after the first UT. The only real comparisons for Halo 3 and UT would have to be at the very least UT2004 which no matter how you look at it has very similar vehicles to halo 1 which was years ahead of UT2004. In fact I believe their is an interview with Cliffy B (my personal hero) stating that they drew inspiration for the vehicles in UT2004 from halo, I think the interview was on IGN could be wrong though.

Halo may be over-rated but it is still vastly better story and gameplay wise that warhawk. though I do own warhawk I don’t really play it for the simple fact that I find it boring. I was hoping for something truly amazing and all I got was Sixaxis controls; I don’t like sixaxis controls.

As far as halo being a UT rip-off, if you were born before 1995 maybe you would have played doom or how about marathon,I don’t know if you are old enough to remember marathon but it came out way before UT and yet it was made by Bungie.

If we have learned anything by now it’s that failure rate doesn’t really mean anything. the original PS2 had a much higher failure rate than the 360 does and sony even admitted they knew about the problem but refused to do anything but wait for years and then release a smaller less capable machine, all the while charging $75 USD plush shipping to repair the old broken console. I don’t really enjoy console gaming which is why I bought a screaming laptop. Though I do collect video games and their respective console, I am not biased toward any but the original NES entertainment system, I have nearly every US game for that thing. and no they are not roms.

Shit or get off the pot. You call the comparison pathetic but then go on to do it yourself. I guess you dont have the real balls to stick by your opinion or have a real one.

hey dumbasses, gina was making fun of the fact that warhawk doesnt have a single player. it is 8-12 hours shorter because thats how long the halo 3 campaign is. u guys are the fucking retards. that was an awesome comment by gina.

anyways, both are fun as hell. everyone shut up already.

That so funny Halo 3 is about 8-12 hr long in campaign. So what does that tell you about warhawk. At least you have team speak with Warhawk, a feature missing in Halo 3, Lucky!

i think that GINA was being sarcastic ……seeing as halos’ single player IS about 8-12 hours long …..by saying that halo is that much longer he was implying that warhawk has no single player …….he was pretty much pointing out the obvious…….but IMO having played both i like the 3rd person game play better…….( im not a real fps fan tho)

WAR HARK is king!!!!halo is a F’ing joke.i was at game stop and there were a bunch of toolbags pre ordering the game.im glad im online w PSN because it looks like halo just has a ton of bandwagon jumpers.

I think y’all missed the point that Gina was trying to make. 8-12 hours shorter than Halo3 = 0 hours of single player.

In Gina’s defence, maybe s/he was having a joke. S/he said Warhawks story was 12 hours shorter, but the Halo 3′s story only lasts 12 hours tops. But of course, you little teens are too dumb to understand subtle humour. Hence: you’re all a bunch of c*nts.

Are you guys idiots?? GINA was being funny! The campaign for halo is about 8-12 hours, so she/he said WarHawk was 8-12 hours less…. Meaning there is none.. get it?
Anyways, Galo is pretty damn gay. Yeah its fun to play online, for about 2 hours. Then you pretty much want something that doesn’t hurt your eyes and is fun to play for years, not hours.

Wow…

You all should read before you post….

Chris ‘DID’ say it was free… He was making a (weak) reference that if it was a paid service nobody would pay for it. Meaning it’s not as good as the XBL…

However, In my opinion… I will take the lack of whistles & bells and play for free. Its the game that makes the online experience not the ‘hosting service’.

And if Gina made a mistake… Ok! So why attack her? She was trying to make her opinion (even if it wasn’t an accurate comparison) but just like ‘Mark’ (the original poster of this) said.. How they hell do you compare two seperate games?

But… Halo Sux cause I have no 360

Halo sucks, plain and simple, it’s all the same crap, just super-hyped, and all the Xbots bought into it hook, line and sinker. The sad thing is, people paid $400 to play Halo for the next 5 years.

The two games are not comparable, completely different styles, genres, etc. Whoever thinks they are comparable has a screw loose and by their criteria any game that has multiplayer would then have to be comparable.

All of you bashing on GINA’s comment about the single player campaign should go back and RE-read the post. It’s called SARCASM. GINA’s point was that WARHAWK doesn’t have anything but multiplayer (Halo single player 8-12 hours…well hopefully one of you can do the math). I own both systems, I have been a fan of WarHawk since the PsOne…but it’s inexcusable and lazy of sony and the developers to release a completely one dimensional game (MULTIPLAYER ONLY) and still charge full price. Warhawk is a ton of fun, no doubt about it…but did we really wait 10 years for this???

Halo3 has it’s faults, but it’s still a lot of fun and there is no comparison in the quality of the online service, match making, etc….Sony/Warhawk still aren’t at the level of Bungie/Live.

The comment on Warhawk being more diverse than Halo3 is a bit of a joke. There are a lot more features and functions available in Halo3 online and offline than Warhawk has. Forge comes to mind.

To all hating on Gina. you obviously missed the sarcasm. As the Halo 3 campaign is about 8-12 hours, then you would see that the warhawk single player is 0 hours.

warhawk is way more balanced the Galo 3

Oh and dont say Galo is better because it has a campaign mode. THe campaign mode in Halo is shit, and we all know it.

cell989, Halo is better because it is on Xbox Live. I have all 3 systems and by far the wii and 360 are better than the ps3 right now.

I’ve got both systems, and both games. I bought a PS3 for Warhawk. While it is a bunch of fun the PSN network leaves a lot to be desired right now. I’ve always liked Halo but have always thought that Halo was a little overrated….

But Halo 3 delivers.

Just from the online options (so many game modes, forge, 4 player co-op campaign). There is so much to do in Halo 3. Plus the dev team has put so much time into the story and it pays off.

Bottom line: Halo 3 just gives you more options, more modes, more GAME

lol, I think you guys totally missed what Gina was saying. I know sarcasm is hard to detect over the internet, but (and I could be wrong) I think they’re saying Halo’s campaign is only 8-12 hours long over Warhawk’s 0 hours as it doesn’t exist. Thus it is a bash on how short Halo is, and the quality of the story therein.

I thought we were not comparing systems here… Just games…

If you want to talk systems the “only” reason the other two systems are better right now is because the selection of games suck for the PS3. But I will guarantee you that by the end of 2008 the tides will turn and ps3 will be a much better system the the other two

But since we are comparing apples to oranges… Skate blows both the games away

I have to say, for the ones calling it “Galo”. have you even played the game? I’m not looking for a response for the simple reason that you could not provide enough proof whether or not you have. I am going to assume that you didn’t play it, furthermore you probably havn’t even played warhawk. I have not seen a single review stating that the halo 3 solo campaign is crap. It would seem that all of the people whom have an opinion that actually matters tend to like the story and campaign game. I have however seen many reviewers unimpressed with warhawk. I can’t say it is a bad game, in fact I would say that warhawk is a good game. although if you don’t have a good broadband connection then the whole game is worthless; assuming one doesn’t have any friends to play with at home. I’m not sure; does warhawk support splitscreen play or system link.

For the record. Halo isn’t better because it has a solo campaign, Halo is better because it has a four player coop campaign on top of full on multiplayer. The simple fact that both of them in my own experience are far more fun then warhawk is enough for me to abandon my PS3 once again. Now add the fact that I can enjoy halo all by myself without haveing to be connected online is great. Warhawk loses this round. Seriously, warhawks expierence is online multiplayer meaning that your whole experience is governed by who ever you play against.

Look at all the fucking loser fanboys on this site. Defending Warhawk like you made the fucking game. Halo may have a “crappy” story or a short campaign but at least it has a damn campaign. You ignorant fanboys are buying a multiplayer only game. YOU GOT RIPPED OFF!!

I have warhawk and is awesome. I used to hate online games, untill I played Resistance and Warhawk. I don’t own a 360. I just plain hate it, but, my brother-in-law has all the halo games. Plus. I saw the gameplay of halo 3 in Gamestop and I saw halo 2 but a little bit more polished. I never saw liked halo and I still do’t get why it’s so over hyped. It’s not that good. Warhawk is waaaay better. CTF of 32 in warhawk are the best. So, i suggest, if you feel like it, see both games in action. For me, warhawk is better. Hands down, man.

So what is the game you want after Halo 3 ….. Talking about exclusives. Go a head think I will give you a year. Even tho xcock had more then 2 years, and ps3 been out for 1 year so far and we will still have way more exclusives games coming out.

Never played halo so I dont know . But played warhawk and its quite impressive. Not an xbox fan, yeah call me a fanboy I dont care. But im a fanboy of nintendo , sony and sega . so F U

gina was apparently being sarcastic so calling someone that person an idiot is stupid for not seeing that…
anyway, i think warhawk is better online then halo three, but all of my friends have halo 3 and none of them have warhawk, i’d rather play with people i know then some random people

omg… wats with all of the fanboys? sayin 1 console is better based on two games? you cant do that. and how can u compare games on 2 different consoles? the controls are different, the graphics are different, it applies to a different audience. Halo 3 is a great 360 game. Warhawk is a great ps3 game. Its obvious that anyone who plays warhawk and doesnt have a 360 is just saying the 360 sucks because they dont have one. and vice-versa. SO STOP COMPARING THEM AND SAYING 1 IS BETTER. THEY R BOTH GOOD GAMES. DEAL WITH IT.

btw, i love wat Gina said lol. “warhawk’s solo campaign is about 8-12 hours shorter” lmao

for all of u retards who didnt understand it, its because halo 3′s campaign takes 8-12 hours 2 beat. 8-12 minus 8-12 = 0 cuz warhawk has no campaign (retards)

Chris i’ve played all three systems. I have only ps3 but i’ve played the wii and 360 cuz my gf’s sis has one, the wii fucking blows the current gen. graphics, hardly no online play, gimmick games…wii shouldn’t even be mentioned in this thread. Also just because sony’s online service is free doesn’t mean it sucks, i play resistance online all the time and i have hardly any problems. the 360 is doing good right now and everyone knows that but the only thing thats keeping them going is halo and even they know that, halo is the only game that keeps microsoft smiling.

These sites are so fuckin stupid for even posting such an article. Who the hell cares? If you like halo you get halo, if you like warhawk you get warhawk. Only someone who owns both games can tell which one is better. Dumb ass posts. This is not news.

Um Gina is not stupid. He made a joke that most of yall obviously didn’t comprehend. Halo 3′s solo campaign is 8-12 hours long so saying Warhawk’s campaign is 8-12 hours shorter than Halo 3′s means he is basically saying it doesn’t have one. Dee Dee Dee!!!

Okay Halo 3 is Way Over Rated…Warhawk Has F**kd up Servers…So I Think Warhawk Is Great… Halo 3 Is Great…But Warhawk Might Come Over Halo 3… But Heavnly Sword Is Da Shyt.

you stupid ediots COMPARE kilzone 2 to halo.
warhawk just came out,give it a brake.

Gina

u stupid? i bet u dont know what warhawk is and if M$ told u to kiss your own ass u would do it.

Once again. Omen, comparing halo 3 to killzone 2? Are you serious? We might as well compare it to Bioshock 2. Killzone 2 isn’t even out yet. I mean, it will be fair to compare in the future but now? maybe not. Also, Halo 2 came out after warhawk.

Omen,
read my first post.

Wow, you are all stupid. Gina said

“Warhawk’s solo campaign is about 8-12 hours shorter than Halo 3’s.”

Because Halo’s campaign IS only 8-12 hours long. She was pointing out that Warhawk doesn’t have a campaign you idiots.

halo 3 now in HD….wait u mean Gaylord 3 is d same as gayparade 1 n gayhole 2.wow.call me a PS3 FAN but halo aint got nothing new 2 offer.single player campaing that all u got 2 say lol.

yeh there aint no single player for warhawk man.. but ps3 is goin to kick ass watch out for metal, killzone and GTA4 peace

halo 3 suck and don’t denied it,its no different than Halo 1 and 2.the new feture are HD wow new single player campaing another WOW!!!!!!call me a PS3 Fanboy but at least warhawk bring new things to the table,like u can fly and blast mastercheff.u can cutomize u player,u can do that right?now all u do is change colors hahaha unique NOOOTTTT.u think H3 is D best FPS.think again,Warhawk though is not a FPS it still way better than Halo.how many player online for H3.16 rihgt NOW WARHAWK IS A 32 player game now u tell me who is better.WAIT NEWS BREAK HALO3 IS NOW IN HD BLA,BLA,BLA,BLA

OMG cant you just all calm down, yes halo3 is a fairly shit produced game (and i agree about the unreal rip-off), and so is warhawk but comparing the 2 is not possible in anyway or form. It is just like sayin which of the 3 major consoles (wii,360,ps3) is the best? each to there own thats my verdict

Quite frankly anyone who calls Halo ‘Gaylo’ clearly needs a dose of maturity administering.

Halo 3 is clearly the better multiplayer game. Bungie know multiplayer. Warhawk is the best multiplayer game on the PS3, but that really isn’t saying much is it? You can’t compare the two.

Saying Halo 3 is shit is akin to saying you know nothing about games and you are an angry spotty virgin fanboy. Take games seriously or go play in the real world.

Warhawk is the most fun I have played EVER on a console. I had Halo3, but completed the single player campaign in 6 hours, and the online experience is poor, as it’s full of 14yr old Xbox retards, who like calling people names.

Sylar,
I don’t even know if you ever watch tv or even look into the facts. yes their are 14 year old on xbox live, though about an average of 65% of the people who bought halo three are over the age of 22, not to mention the fact that puting all of the facts in line, you have to be 18 and have an active credit or debit card to use xbox live. Which means that the average user will probably be older. I’m not saying that they are any more mature than a 14 year old…
either way anyone with a broadband connection can hop on PSN and I have to admit, nice business model; Shitty execution. Warhawk is a good multiplayer game, but like halo, I get the same been there done that experience. Warhawk is about original as the Ace Cobat series; although I had more fun playing Ace Combat 5 for the PS2 than I did playing Warhawk. just like you people wine about people on xbox live, how about the people on PSN. well the ones in the games that allow voice chat that is. not any less irritating. that being said. I completely agree with “rich” the Halo series is more known for it’s fantastic multiplayer than it is for the single player. And if you want a new way to play a match in halo… how about gravity hammer baseball, use the hammer to send the rockets back the other way, but wait theres more. load up forge and have a create your own Strategy game, one player from each team becomes the God/Guilty Spark and gives their respective team weapons and vehicles and ect…ect…
Now does Warhawk have that kind of versitility. NO…Can Warhawk Create nearly an infinite amount of custom game modes…NO. who has the better multiplayer experience. well… In my opinion. it has to be Halo 3.

It is tough to compare the two games on just the fact that their games. You have to go far deeper. what kind of variety is their to be had. How easy it is to find players online not to mention longevity. let’s see which game lasts longer in the month to month game sales charts shall we? Something tell me that we all know who the winner will be. and I don’t think it will be sony.

Tom,

To say Halo 3 has shitty production values would be like saying the PS3 wasn’t designed as a way to push blue-ray into the market. Something tell me that you are either a novice game player or your mad because the people that bought a Xbox 360 are haveing fun playing great, Critically acclaimed games while you are stuck with lair… which has the worst production values in recent memory for such a “Big” budget game, and then for the creator to say the controls in warhawk were terrible and inaccurate WTF?. Sony will have it’s day in the spotlight.(it will be a smaller spotlight if microsoft becomes Sqare-Enixs’ North American distributer.) but probably not until late next year. Though I don’t see MGS4 really making that much a difference. I think that Little Big Planet will be the best the PS3 will have to offer though; for a little while that is. Cue jealousy.

Like only a total idiot would think Halo 3 looks great..

Nice Jaggelies. PS2 era all over again!!

Seems obvious why Microsoft had to pay all the review sites off with goodie bags..

“None of your bussiness”

You call people ignorant but some people (like myself) prefer to play games online. That was the whole concept of the game… It wasn’t a surprise so it wasn’t a rip off. I got exactly what I was expecting and more. If your sorry ass is not able to find a friend to play with online… well… Find a friend… Loser!

STBY by the way, Microsoft will NEVER be Square-Enixs North American distributor EVER! And if you don’t see MGS4 being much of a diffrence for sony then you must have your head so far up microsofts ass its not even funny.

I didn’t say microsoft would be their north american distributer, it’s more of an if than an is. but then again I don’t think even the mighty square would put down the size of an offer that microsoft could offer.
As far as your last comment. I don’t think so, I bought my ps3 way before I got my 360, kind of got bored with resistance, you know; when their is not much to offer in one place it is time to move to another. So I bought a Xbox-360 and then I got bioshock and now halo 3, and a few other titles.I don’t really care for microsoft as a company but I have to admit they put out far better software at this point. Then again, I play my PC far more than I do a console. something tell me ‘Jeff” that your a indignant Playstation fan and wish for more games on the PS3. How about you just buy both systems and play the good games that come out for both. seeing how you probably only own a PS2 and couldn’t prove to me other-wise. I will forgive your doleful comment. remember, sqare is developing a couple of game for the 360, one good way for microsoft to make them exclusive is to distibute the games themselves.
either way. who cares. when a game that I want comes out I will either buy the game day one or I will wait for the price to drop on said game and then buy it at a cheaper price. why does everybody always wine about this stuff. It’s not like it’s the end of the world. I don’t care who buys what or what is better and what game is on what system. I’m a collector of video games and that’s all that I care about. I will complete my nes/snes/N64/genesis/PS1/ whatever game catalogue, maybe not PS1, too many crap games that shouldn’t of have been developed in the fist place.

Well i just assumed that you were a big MS fanboy cuz when you said that you don’t think MGS4 won’t be a diffrence cuz anyone that knows about sony well knows for damn sure that MGS4 just might be sony’s killer app. And yes i can understand you got bored with resistance. I am. And as a sony fan i’m kinda impatient for the next titles to come out and its taking a damn long time but i’m looking forward for october & November since Drakes uncharted fortune is comming, Ratchet and clank, Unreal tournament, and i’m thinking about getting Jericho. I just downloaded that demo yesterday which was my birthday so that was a treat. And actually i do own a ps3 stby my PSN ID is:AssassinisTLeoN so add that if you REALLY have a ps3 and i can prove you i have one. I don’t hate microsoft, i just don’t want to pay how much it costs i’m not sure how much it costs but i’m not gonna spend money on a product that doesn’t sure quality Hence the ring of death.

So to a conclusion, i apologize for my comment ealier but you do seem like a MS fanboy and you say you’re not but you say shit like “Something tell me that we all know who the winner will be. and I don’t think it will be sony.” WTF?? Thats totally fanboyish. The ps3 hasn’t even been out a full year yet! A YEAR! 360 has been released a full year more than sony and their only weapon out of losing this holiday is Halo. And MS knows it. But just watch, around late summer and early fall sony’s ps3s sold numbers will hang around Microsofts numbers and will eventually pass and the same thing will happen to the wii…cuz people are starting to realize that the wii has nothing but gimmick games and Metroid Prime (Another 15+ year old game) is the only thing they have for the holiday. In the end i believe sony will win but hey only time will tell

I agree with Jeff, for some unspecified reason XBOTS always negate any positivity towards a game that is not on xbox. I my self must say that I envy XBOTS, since they have Bioshock and Mass Effect, those 2 right there are more then enough to warrant an xbox purchase. I wont be purchasing a 360 anytime soon, since my PS3 is actually catching up some steam, because after this holiday season, the infamous phrase “PS3 has no games” will be vanished in the past. In all honesty multiplayer wise I think Warhawk has the edge over Halo 3, Why?, well for once Halo is limited to 16 players at one time and only 8 for Forge, that really degrades it, in atime where “multiplayer” is the key to a succesful videogame experience, Halo 3 falls short with such small number of players. I belive 32 should be the standard number of players at one time, because the more players at once the more chaos you get, the more possibilities get, the more lasting appeal you get.

I must rant about Halo 3 on another aspect, why must it be presented as a complete single player campaign, when the story, plot, and universe is so shitty?. I dont get it. What Bungie has in multiplayer experience and talent, seems to lack in campaign mode, its like they need to hire some real proffesional writers and hollywood movie producers to get it right. To me their in-house talent sucks ass in creativeness. From the protagonist character and custom design(looks like a pro bike racer)to dumb ass levels and dry acting. The only thing Microsoft envigorates is multiplayer everything else is left as an after thought. This is the reason that Warhawk producers were honest enough not to include their campaign mode in the final build.

boarhawk, resistince it doesnt matter those games are not as good as the Tom Clancy series or the Bungie series or the Call of Duty series. bring me a JRPG or get the hell out of here fps on sony.

HALO 3 is another money grab by MICROSOFT. I decided to pay more for PS3 because of the quality of the Sony products and it offers a blu-ray player , free online and ,future potential. XBOX 360 will fall behind in two years and people will get fed up with their failing, overheating ,loud consoles. By the way I have a Wii and originally bought a 360 before ps3 but it died within five days. I decided to spend extra for quality and I knew the games will come within a year , 360 alredy had a year on the market but ps3 will prevail soon. Warhawk is the best online game I have ever played and its highly addictive and enjoyable. Halo 3 is a marketing gimmick and shame on all the fools who gave Microsoft more money to play online. Get a PS3 AND 5 FREE BLURAY MOVIES AND NOW A COUPLE OF GAMES INCLUDED!WARHAWK is a bargain online at 42.00 cdn.

Yeah I agree with nfldanchor, he points out a good subject. While you must pay a fee to enjoy Halo3, you dont pay more then $42.00 to play Warhawk.

Oh and you can be sure your system wont give you shit for playing Warhawk, I cant say the same thing about Halo 3.

Ah is this still going on? Lol. Hay Halo 3 is fun but it’s not even the best game on the 360. Gears and Bioshock are. IF Halo 3 came out and was nothing but stick figure drawing of Master Chief running around all you guys would still say it’s the best game ever and all these magazines would give it a 10 out of 10.

Halo 3 is fun but is it perfect. No. It’s Halo 2.5. Why do I say that because they is not that jump that the game should have between the xbox and 360. It does have cool water effects but its Halo 2 with some added features. It’s technically not even HD. I liked Halo 2 but Halo 3 was a bit of a let down since it was more of the same.

All I know is if this game came on the PS3 exactly as it is every magazine would be like 7 or 8 out of 10. Everyone would be saying the Campaign is too short, its the same , the graphics aren’t blowing me away,and this game sucks.

IF this game was exactly the same as it is but not called Halo 3 but another name it would be given a 8 out of 10 on the 360 or an 8.5 but since it’s Halo 3 its given 10′s with no questions asked.

Just for everyones information: Xbox live is has a yearly subscription fee of only $60 USD. I don’t see why people(nonxboxlive/360owning) say they wouldn’t pay to play online. Espesially when the services that are offered are so much better. I rather not have to pay anything to play online, then again I would rather not have to pay anything to play video games either; but you get what you pay for and what you pay for xbox live is a rather small fee and the service is undisputibly top notch. and for that 60 bucks you usually get a good headset. but as for the comparison. WHAT? why compare the two. who the F*ck cares. If you have a PS3 buy F*cking warhawk. if you have an xbox 360 buy F*cking halo 3. and If you own both. buy halo 3 and warhawk and enjoy. both of them are good games. and even if halo 3 was just halo with a fresh coat of paint, they must of snuck in some damn special performance parts because the two are barely comperable.

“only” $60 LOL, for a slow laggy peer to peer service.

No thanks, I prefer the free dedicated PS3 servers.

You also don’t factor in the multiple versions of the 360 you have to buy, to finally get a chance of a working one.

Why dont we call this the dont hate on gina thread.
BTW Warhawk PWNS

I agree with one , Halo gets 10 because its the brain child of Microsoft. And when Microsoft is mentioned there is also money to be played. Therefore a ten everywhere is very logical, had it been in any other system it would have been more like an 8 to 9 score.

Acually, Halo 3 did get some 8′s and 9′s just go to google news and type in halo 3 review and search. not hard to find.

Warhawk is amazing! I stopped playing every other game and just play this now. It doesn’t get boring at all.

well I guess that is your opinion. My opinion: It’s fun, but then again so is Halo 3. meh different game type different preferences. mine RPG and FPS

slow? laggy? I havn’t personally came upon any slow or laggy service on xbox live as for peer to peer? since when. am I to understand that they have changed what that meant?
The fact you’re not downloading files from other users makes that statemeant true. no dedicated servers? now that’s just plain stupid. Microsoft has it’s own dedicated servers, which once again debunks your theory of xbox live being a peer to peer service. don’t be an itiot.

why do u guys say u got ripped off cuz warhawk is only online. warhawk is awesome and the campaign would distract you from the online play. same thing with halo 3 most ppl buy the game for the online play. Both are awesome. and ppl who say they cant play online cuz they have no internet then how r u here? Unless u r doing this from another source. that also means that u never played it so get out of here! also y do u ppl care if other ppl wont have internet, that doesnt help

sunny

They can be “here” due to a friends house or the public library for that matter. just because they don’t have the internet doesn’t mean that they don’t use the internet elswere. I’m currently typing this at my college. Though, I am using my own laptop.

Here you go, enough said.

You guys must remember that Warhawk has 4 player on line from the sam console, you dont need multiple consoles and game copies to ply with your friends. That is a very nice feature that halo 3 does not support.

UMMM. Yes it does. You can’t play four player coop in the campaign mode but multiplayer is four player split.

i prefer warhawk instead of halo 3 the only halo i liked was 1
2 and 3 suck they realy do yes halo 3 has some good points but
its just no match for warhawk!

Well from my point of view I think both games are both fun and online so i guesse I like both of them (:p)

Personally I can’t eve ncomment on warhawk beacause I’ve never played it but I still can say this.

STOP FUCKING BASHING ON GINA YOU WHORES!

God you guys are fucking idiots. seriously.

Hello personally gina dont know what he is taking about he is fucking stupid.

\”Warhawk’s solo campaign is about 8-12 hours shorter than Halo 3’s. \”

That is easily the best comment on this page, I actually laughed out loud. Everyone spazzing out because Warhawk doesn\’t have a campaign have no sense of humor.

Warhawk has a very active community. I can go online and play against tons of people, and I can do it for free. Yes, there are people running empty servers, sony also runs very active servers. Also, some ppl complaing about not enough ppl, change your filter settings, at any given time there are probably at least 50 active games of 8+ ppl, and about another 100 or so with 8 or less.

I\’ve beaten Halo 3 at my friend\’s place, yes, multi player campaigns are nice, but playing online is much better, especially when all players don\’t need Xbox accounts to play from 1 console.

Also in Warhawk, you can blow up vehicles my continuously shooting them. In Halo you have to kill the driver, which is stupid when you are shooting Ghost Vehicles with weaker weapons and that vehicle won\’t blow up. I played a round where this guy kept killing 3 of us with a ghost, none of us could get ahold of the 1 rocket laucher, and the guy kept on mowing us down. No number of assult rifle bullets could blow him up, so he won the round because his stupid little ghost didn\’t take dmg.

A group of 4 of us played Halo 3 a lot, recently when I got a PS3 we\’ve switched to Warhawk for several of the below reasons.

I personally prefer Warhawk with the expansion packs, it only has 8 different maps, but each map has about 8 different modes of play. I also find Warhawk to be less glitchy, although it does have its issues when a tank gets stuck on a rock. At least in Warhawk I\’ve never witnessed someone phasing through a rocket. That\’s right, in Halo 3, I\’ve seen people phase through a rocket, then double checked it from every vangtage point in instant replay.

Warhawk had some kind of glitch were you could shoot through a mountain, I think that\’s fixed, but every now and then I wonder.

In Halo 3, a close by hand grenade won\’t kill you unless it\’s a sticky that landed on you. I find this silly, since a grenade that hit your foot and blew up won\’t kill you. This was not a problem in Halo 1. In Warhawk, that\’s not an issue, if a grenade blows up next to you, you\’re dead.

Also since the Warhawk Co-Op is big enough to play with others who have split screen enabled, you can play with your friends against other ppl w/o having a friend that\’s a screen watching bitch.
