German gaming webstite Gamefront has posted an image of the latest Playstation Magazine issue, in which both Lair and Warhawk have been reviewed. Both games will be in stores at around August/September but Playstation Magazine does not seem very happy with both games, as the magazine rates Warhawk 6.5, and Lair even lower: 5.0.

In the image of the magazine, you can see that Lair is described as: "A one-trick dragon" and destroys it with a 5.0 rating. Warhawk on the other hand is described as: "A third-person shooter that never quite gets off the ground", and rates the game with only a 6.5. The image can been see below.

IGN has received a near-overwhelming number of entries to the Warhawk tournament--and we've sifted through all the hopefuls, narrowing it down to 12 battle-ready soldiers eager to take on the Incognito development team.

The tournament, which will be held on the 23rd, will consist of three 16 vs. 16 matches. On the IGN side, there will be four IGN editors, plus 12 hand-selected players who've either shown that have the skills and determination to win. Their opponent will be the very makers of the Warhawk game--16 crack-team members from Incognito, who know all the ins-and-outs of the multiplayer mayhem.

Congrats. Regrettably we couldn't put all of your names down, but know that this was meant for all of you.

Threespeech have revealed the release date for the different versions of Warhawk for Europe, and along with it the price:

"Warhawk: They're "aiming for" August 28 on the PSN, at what we think is a very decent price of £19.99. The retail version, bundled with a Jabra bluetooth headset, is due September 21 at £39.99."

The normal RRP(Recommended Retail Price) for games in the United Kingdom is £49.99 for the Playstation 3. Online game retailers such as Play, Gameplay and ShopTo have updated their prices to reflect the PS3 exclusives as £39.99 RRP. This includes Warhawk(with headset), Heavenly Sword and Lair

It is worth noting that despite these RRP you can buy games online for £39.99 instead of the RRP of £49.99 and these Sony exclusive games are available online for £32.99 instead of the RRP of £39.99. This makes them £7.00 cheaper than all other new games coming onto the market.

Could this be a promotion by Sony to promote the exclusive games you can only buy on the PS3? Will these prices help sell more consoles?

Warhawk is a game every PS3 gamer should buy this September. It's a one-trick pony, for sure, being effectively an online-only game (think classic PS2 mash Twisted Metal: Black Online). But Warhawk 's one trick is so entertaining, so appealing, so much chaotic fun, that it puts to shame even the bigger names on the release schedule. In fact, having played a near finished version for several days (after blasting through the recent beta, too) we have to say we're more excited about Warhawk's ... » Read More

PS blog :

"Hi Everyone,

Dylan Jobe wants to let you all know that our SCEE team is working very, very hard on getting the game ready. And I want to assure all of our UK players that we *they* care very much about shipping Warhawk simultaneously with the US version and that is still our goal.

They just want to make sure that when the say "the game is gold" they really are done! These things have to bake for awhile before they can feel comfortable saying "it's done"¿

¿He know you all can appreciate that.

With SCEA dodging the question by European gamers in regards to Warhawk's release date, and in addition to many UK retailers over the past week scheduling it for late 2007, it is pretty much all but confirmed that despite Icognito's promise - Warhawk will not be released worldwide on August 28th.

Now several UK retailers have specified a firm date of September 14th. Although this is not confirmed by SCEE, it seems very likely to be accurate.

Sony UK has remained quiet about when we'll see WarHawk in Europe and how much it will cost here.

It follows earlier confirmation from official US PlayStation blog, which announced the game would be released over there on 28th August.

The "premium" Blu-ray version will cost you USD 59.95 and will come with extra video content, a Bluetooth headset and a manual - apparently that's important. Alternatively you can buy exactly the same game without those trimmings on the PlayStation Network for USD 39.95.

Dylon Jobe, Game Director of Warhawk writes on the Playstation blog that;

"Warhawk has gone gold.

Hells Ya! The PSN and Blu-ray versions have gone "GOLD," completely finished and will go on sale August 28th ¿ just a few weeks away!

Next, what does Warhawk cost?

If you didn't already know, SCEA is taking an exciting new approach with Warhawk ¿ making it available for download directly from the PlayStation Store *and* releasing it at retail simultaneously. Each one has a different price. Why different pricing? A couple of reasons: first off, we wanted to give all of you the option, the retail game is more of a premium version with some expanded video content, traditional package and manual (this seems to mean a lot with some of the gamers I have spoken to), and a Jabra Bluetooth headset bundled with the game ¿ all for $59.99!

The PlayStation Store version will be $39.99 and I'm really glad that SCEA came through with a "good value" price for this ¿ it's the right thing to do."

Several UK retailers have now pushed back the release date of the highly anticpated title Warhawk, fuelling speculation that the game will be delayed with some confirming the title has been removed from their computer list of upcoming games.

This comes after retailers in the US also pushed back their own release dates. The confusion however remains as some retailers' date differs to others.

This trailer might suggest Warhawk is some kind of jovial, laughter-fueled mix of Takeshi's Castle and Battlefield 2. But don't let the jolly music confuse you. We know that Warhawk is an action-filled explosive deathmatch fest, and the gameplay footage within backs that up. The footage comes courtesy of Sony Japan, but we'd struggle to offer a reason for the oompah-oompah style soundtrack. Still, regardless of backing score, Warhawk is looking hot. Especially if it turns out to be the ... » Read More

Modern multiplayer games have nearly killed something we loved from the Nintendo 64 era: split-screen multiplayer. Now that our televisions have more pixels and are larger, shouldn't we herald the return of split-screen multiplayer?

Sony's annual E3 press conference opened with what could have been the biggest reveal of the entire show if it hadn't been leaked last week: the new $499 price of the PS3, as well as the introduction of a new $599 model that comes with an 80GB hard drive and a copy of online-enabled dirt racer Motorstorm. This left biggy-wig Jack Tretton (who began the event speaking through his character in the PS3 virtual world Home) to launch right into the publisher's game-centric, four-part ... » Read More
