Gamers Announce "Warhawk Day" to Encourage Sony to Produce Warhawk 2 for PS4

Junkie Monkeys: If you love Warhawk, then you are going to love this cause created by a handful of gamers trying to persuade Sony to produce a Warhawk 2.

Nice Warhawks 2 would be awesome

[Treezy504]

I would love to play a sequel just like the first game on the PS4, hell I would like to play Warhawk on PlayStation Now if it's possible.

[ITPython]

They essentially tried Warhawk 2, and it was called Starhawk.

Long story short, the game was pretty awful. I loved Warhawk and it was my first ever online game, I still sport a Warhawk avatar which has been on my PSN account going on 7 years now. The game was absolutely ingenious for how simple it was.

But since Incognito split up into two different developers (LightBox Interactive, and Eat Sleep Play), LBI failed miserably to try and resurrect the Warhawk IP. And even though it was a 'spiritual successor' to Warhawk and not a true successor, it was the best they could do and it was absolutely terrible. Pretty much anything that could go wrong with a game, went wrong. And LBI made all the wrong moves.

I am pretty sure LBI is going to be shutting their doors (if it hasn't already happened), SH had absolutely pathetic sales and I doubt Sony would risk another game with them. Eat Sleep Play, the other half of Incognito, at least got about 700k sales with Twisted metal in 2012, whereas SH only got 250k.

I hate to say it, but the Warhawk series ended with Warhawk. Incognito is no more and Lightbox Interactive has proven they don't have what it takes to make a worthy sequel to Warhawk.

I will be sure to be there. One of my most played games of last gen.

@itpython

I hope is not the end of war hawk
I spend hours and hours on that game
I tried star hawk but to me it sucked
That built a base thing looks good on paper but just didn't work
It was almost impossible to get in the base
And the maps were pretty crappy as well as the robot(I prefer hover mode)

[yess]

I'm in, see you there;)

[MikeGdaGod]

i would LOVE Warhawk 2

i'm not much of an online MP gamer, but when i got into the Warhawk beta i became obsessed with the game. it was so much fun and i had never experienced warfare on that scale with so many players.

it was amazing....please bring it to PS4

[Rimeskeem]

Its like planetside 2 but 3rd person and different skin so yes it would be awesome

[jocomat9]

We need a Warhawk(2007) sequel. Everyone, post this to Santa Monica's twitter and Facebook, spread the word and show the want is enough!

Dylan Jobe might be there too, Warhawk <3 http://www.youtube.com/watc...

[maniacmayhem]

I remember playing the original Warhawk for the PS1 and I was blown away by it. Such a fantastic game, I barely played the sequel because of it's departure but I heard it was good.

I barely remember Starhawk though, I do remember the hype for the game but when released it quickly died.

[Dark_king]

Starhawk was fun but ps3's Warhawk was just a blast it was perfectly balanced.I mean a expert foot solider was just as powerful as a tank are a warhawk. Pilots didn't have to be expert's to have fun in the warhawks but experts could own you.It was one of those games you just had fun playing even when you where out numbered.

I would love another but they better put the knife on the weapon wheel. Knife fights where just addictive crazy fun.

[MONOLITHICIDE]

WARHAWK PS4 NEEDS TO COME FELLOW GAMERS. EVEN IF YOU DONT CARE PLEASE HELP SUPPORT. ILL BE ON. I PLAY THIS GAME REGULARLY!!!
Oh the knife fights. To much fun! This is getting me all excited!
I think I'm going to go play now. My brother is already, having read this article. See you all on the battlefield. Newcomers are always welcome. Buy it! Its cheap now! Like REAL CHEAP!!!

[theXtReMe1]

The original game was incredible on the PS1. I would love a sequel. Hell, I just want any next gen flight combat game. War Thunder is OK, but I want something single player. Ace Combat, IL3, Airforce Delta, etc... I would even be happy with a PS4 port of the iOs flight combat games. We need to be able to use PC or PS3 force feedback flight sticks.

[Godmars290]

And the games you're talking about are not the Warhawk anyone else is talking about. It is not the Warhawk of the article.

Though I'd love to see a GTA version of the PS1 Warhawk. GTA mechanics set in on a steampunk world.

[KingKelloggTheWH]

I would Kill for Warhawk 2

[Heisenburger]

Literally, figuratively speaking of course.

[SonyStyled]

i thought lightbox interactive announced there moving to mobile games development after starhawk?

[Treezy504]

Dylan Jobe has expressed interest in a remastered version of Warhawk for the PS4, so it could happen. https://twitter.com/DylanJo...

[M-M]

They did, but it's never impossible that Sony can take them back. The only studio that I know of that can take over for Warhawk is SSM.

[twdll]

Warhawk 2 sweet.

[-EvoAnubis-]

Just when I thought I was out, they pull me back in!

For one day only, I'm coming out of retirement and claiming the skies as my own once more.

[Iceman X]

Starhawk was a GREAT game.

[Knushwood Butt]

You talk about it in the past tense, when Warhawk had an online community for years. Maybe still does ?

I wanted to like Starhawk, but it just wasn't fun.

[SoulSercher620]

Glad to know I'm not the only one that loved Starhawk.

[MONOLITHICIDE]

I loge Starhawk aswell. Just didn't alwayss have that WARHAWK feeling. Sometimes it did when chaos ensued.!

[ShowanW]

Sony better concentrate its funds on bigger fish than Warhawk right now...

[godofboobees]

Warhawk has an active and committed community. They have more than enough planned in the future. Bringing back the warhawk community would be a big plus for sony

[BitbyDeath]

Warhawk is easily the best online game of last gen. You don't get much bigger than that.

[-EvoAnubis-]

I'm not a competitive online gamer. I turn my nose up at nearly every such title or mode of this sort to come out. Even The Last of Us's excellent MP only got about 20 hours of my attention. Warhawk, however, I got into like no other game before or since. The combination of simplicity and variety captured me; I've put more than 300 hours into that game. Even to this day, that community is freaking HUGE. If they brought a Warhawk 2 to PS4 (or even an updated version of the original game with new maps), that entire community would make the next gen jump, I promise you. It's well worth Sony's time.

[MONOLITHICIDE]

Um I disagree and gave you a negative bubble for bad language. Never way what you just said.

[Rodney25]

Nice community man. I wish mire were like this and put together a day just for sparking interests in a game again. Hope Sony listens.

[Treezy504]

The Warhawk community has always been a great one. Lets just hope the campaign is a success.

[Rodney25]

Why the disagree?

[Joker909]

I will be there FEB 22 love WH

[ThatCanadianGuy514]

Still have my copy from 2007.Absolutely loved that game.One of the few multiplayer games that i sunk over 1000 hours into.

It was just soooo good.Starhawk took everything that made warhawk great, removed it, and replaced it with clunky controls and retarded map design.

Looks like i'll be taking to the skies again on the 22nd.

[parentsbasement]

HAS to be one of the hardest games EVER to get a platinum trophy for.....

[RandomDude655]

Close....Socom Confrontation is impossible

[tanookisuit]

I have a measly three (3) trophies for WH, lol.

[WeAreLegion]

A new Warhawk or Starhawk would be incredible!

[kratoz1209]

Starhawk was incredible :D

[dcj0524]

Warhawk 2 would exspensive as hell. Maybe sony can offer crowd funding because i would happily pay $100 towards the developmwnt of WARHAWK 2.

[Maxor]

I was dying for some Warhawk until I found Strike Vector on Steam for a cheapo $20. It's basically Warhawk in it's purest form. If Sony is going to do another Warhawk, it should be like this, because Warhawk 3 was a freaking joke.

http://www.youtube.com/watc...

[FunAndGun]

Warhawk had ground and soldier combat though. also, what is Warhawk 3?

[Dark_king]

He means Starhawk and by its purist form he means the ps1 warhawk.

[nix]

i loved warhawk. 32 players online was a blast to play! so many good memories.

[DanielGearSolid]

Warhawk you made me love online gaming

Warhawk you valued splitscreen

Warhawk you just did everything right

[assdan]

warhawk broke barely 1 million units. I'm not seeing a sequel.

[Hicken]

Specific sales figures alone don't determine whether a game gets a sequel or not. A million copies isn't a lot by the standards of, say, Call of Duty, but for smaller games, it's more than enough to warrant another entry in the franchise.

[Dark_king]

that's only retail and was pretty impressive for a online only game 1 year into the ps3 life.I have no idea how many digital copy's were sold but I assume a good bit.Hell I got a digital copy just so I didn't have to switch disc's anymore.

[Knushwood Butt]

I originally got the US version on disc, as it wasn't available in Japan.

Then I bought the JPN digital version.

There are very few games I have ever bought twice.

[Rhezin]

I loved Starhawk didn't like Warhawk…at all.

[D-riders]

yeah do it

[glposse]

We will be there (Holland :) ) See ya on the 22 Feb...
