    Warhawk Trophies (and Other New Stuff) Coming At The End Of The Month

    When the PS3 trophy system was announced in June, Warhawk was to be one of the first pre-trophy games to be brought up to speed. They weren't fibbing! Sony have announced that, as part of Warhawk's 1.5 update, over 50 trophies will be introduced into the game, and they're being offered for achievements as diverse as hosting a game for four hours, playing a "perfect deathmatch" (come 1st, no deaths) and shooting down aircraft with a tank. The update will also introduce "custom music tracks from the Home Menu", new paint schemes and insignia and a range of tutorial missions to help new players out before jumping online. It'll be released on August 27.

    Warhawk Gets Big, Free Update

    As Dylan Jobe says in this PlayStation.Blog post, Warhawk is "almost a year old". Time for a fresh coat of paint! And Sony are obliging, with the innocently-titled "1.4" upgrade actually bringing a ton of gameplay and functionality tweaks to the game. On the gameplay side, two new modes are added, Collection and the great-sounding Hero (each team gets a "hero", who glows and can be seen on the map but is also incredibly powerful). Behind the scenes, everything from the mini-map to the scoring's seen changes, with the addition of new features like "Quick Join", which is Warhawk's name for instant matchmaking. The 1.4 update goes live on July 16 at 0300 Pacific Time, and is completely free of charge. More »

    Warhawk Expansions Bundled In A Combo Pack

    Sony have announced that, sometime in the future - probably the near future - they'll be releasing a Warhawk-themed value pack over the PSN. Said pack will roll both Warhawk expansions (Omega Dawn and Operation Broken Mirror) into the single release. As of now there's only British pricing available: the pack will go for £4.99, a charitable offering when you consider they each went for £3.99 when first released. North American pricing can't be too far away. More »

    6" Warhawk Figures Usher In An Era Of Desktop Dogfights

    A PlayStation.Blog post about an upcoming Warhawk tournament actually contains something far more interesting: news of a line of miniature Warhawk figures. Gentle Giant studios are currently at work on the project, and when done will be releasing a line of 6" replicas based on the series' trademark fighter. They'll even come with little plastic stands, so it looks like they're flying, and you can pick them up off your desk and be all "mmmmmyyyeeewwwwww, pew pew pew" when nobody's looking. More »

    Warhawk 1.3 Update Adds Home Support. Great! Where's Home?

    The latest update to Incognito's PlayStation 3 shooter Warhawk has gone live, bringing an extra tenth of numeral to the software version and inserting a host of new features. Go ahead, download it! In addition to new paint jobs, new VOIP options and new tactics, Warhawk's 1.3 flavor brings with it Home support. That's just fantastic, now we just need Home to launch so we can enjoy it. If you missed it the first time, here's what we heard Home will bring to the Warhawk experience. Until the service goes from beta to prime time, enjoy whacking things with your new field mechanic wrench!

    Warhawk Hits 500,000 Ranked Players

    Today's piece of inane trivia is brought to you by Warhawk, the little online game that could. Turns out that over the past week or so the game registered it's 500,000th ranked player (it's at 510,927 at time of writing). That's not the number of people who've bought and/or played the game, just those who played a game on a ranked server. When you consider the profile of the game and the install base of the PS3 (especially at the time it was released), those are some impressive numbers. More »

    Warhawk Expansion Pegged For April

    Sony has announced that the v1.3 patch for Warhawk is coming soon and fills us in on all the details. The patch adds a myriad of functions including future Home support, new VOIP Options and new paint schemes & insignias. The latter will be culled from a contest that invited users to submit their original paint schemes. The winners will be included in the patch when it arrives.

    Warhawk 1.3 Brings Custom Paint Jobs, Contest

    The next update for PlayStation 3 dogfighter Warhawk should appeal the fashion design crowd. It's ushering in a new era of visual customization for vehicles and foot soldiers, giving budding designers the chance to have their work featured in-game. Sony and Incognito are currently holding a contest, seeking decal design and paint scheme submissions, 70 of which will be included in the upcoming patch. Details are still scarce—but coming "pretty soon," says producer Dylan Jobe—on the rest of what version 1.3 will bring, so stay tuned. More »

    Next-Gen Picks Top Ten Game Design Innovations Of 2007

Fortunately, instead of focusing on the top ten games of the year based on some vague merit—that's typically just a list of the year's most hyped, biggest name titles—Next-Gen opted to focus on innovation. Don't worry, some of the bigger software is included, such as Mass Effect and Call of Duty 4, but a few titles that wouldn't normally make the cut are included. More »

    Warhawk Expansion Is Really Real

    The rumored Warhawk expansion pack is rumor no more, with Sony mouthpiece ThreeSpeech confirming Operation: Omega Dawn will hit the PlayStation Network sometime this December. Doesn't sound exactly stuffed with content, maybe more along the lines of a simple add-on pack, as it features a new vehicle, the KT-424 Combat Dropship, and a new battlefield, the Omega Factory. Still, night time based battles sound very intellectually seductive. And I'm not even sure quite what that means. More »

Some fantastic additions, including early DualShock 3 support, more flexible SIXAXIS control settings, in-game integration of the Store for faster microtransacting, new level layouts and clan support lead the charge. Of course, the usual glitch fixes and exploit closures also add to the fun, the full list of which can be seen after the jump.
