Warhawk game-sharing grounded
Downloadable version of Incognito's PS3-exclusive multiplayer shooter comes with new strings attached; Sony tells GameSpot why.
By Brendan Sinclair, GameSpot
Posted Aug 28, 2007 11:01 am PT

Shortly before the PlayStation 3 launched last year, Sony revealed its PlayStation Network plans, including a feature that would allow a user to purchase a game once and download it on up to five different systems.
To date, that has resulted in a fairly liberal policy that has allowed gamers to share the game with friends by logging onto their systems, downloading the game, and then logging out. Even without the original owner logged in, the downloaded game is playable by anyone who uses that console. The fine print on PlayStation Store downloads for this digital rights management (DRM) setup is simply, "One time fee for downloads on up to five activated PS3 units."
However, as gamers who download the freshly available Warhawk for the PS3 are finding out, that policy was tweaked for Incognito's latest shooter. The description of the $39.99 download on the PlayStation Store includes the follow snippet: "One time fee for download or use solely by the purchasing PSN account on up to five PS3 units, with no more than one activated PS3 unit within a 24 hour period. Content may not be used by any other account."
A Sony representative answered a few quick questions about the DRM on the downloadable edition of Warhawk.
GameSpot: What's different about Warhawk's DRM?
Sony representative: The downloadable version of Warhawk, which is available from the PlayStation Store, will be directly tied to the registered PSN account that purchased the game. Only that registered PSN account will be authenticated for gameplay. You will still be able to download the game to up to five PS3 systems. However, if a user downloads Warhawk onto a different machine, he/she will only be able to play via the original PSN user account on that machine and could not play on a different machine for 24 hours. This does not affect the Blu-ray Disc version of the game available at retail.
GS: Will all downloadable PS3 games have this new DRM in the future?
SR: We will be evaluating each game made available on the PlayStation Network in terms of development costs, maintenance cost, server costs, and other factors. A determination on which DRM strategy will be implemented will be clearly communicated to the PSN account holder at time of purchase.
GS: There are a number of PS3 gamers who don't do any game sharing because they see it as an abuse of Sony's DRM policy. What's Sony's stance on the practice of one gamer buying a downloadable title and then also downloading it onto a friend's PS3 so that friend can essentially own it as well?
SR: We must take steps to protect the investment we have made in our products. The development costs of Warhawk are no different than any other boxed game you might find from SCEA at retail. Couple that with the cost to maintain a continuous online gameplay environment and you can understand the investment we have made in Warhawk. Not utilizing this new DRM strategy could open the company up to losses that could jeopardize our ability to allow free online gameplay across the PlayStation Network

I DL'd it with a sub account, and it can't be used with either of my 2 zbalata accounts.  ...oh well.  Sorry JP, lol...

It seems like a great game after a couple hours or so...  Flying is awesome.  Ground combat will take some time.

Tanks, Rocket launchers, aircraft, stationary guns, are spread out in zones which you attempt to control.

Very very good graphics and lighting.   S'all for now...    Oh, I can only host up to 4 players w/ my connection.

First Impressions: Warhawk on Playstation 3

By Danny Mendez

The Playstation online store unleashed Warhawk on the world today at midnight Eastern Time. If you're lookin' to find out whether it's worth your money, inquire inside. I logged onto the Playstation online store to download Warhawk as soon as it became available. Apart from the PS3's Blu-ray capabilities, this is the reason I bought the console. I was afraid I might have made a mistake. Should I have waited for the mass reviews to come out?
As soon as I connected to the first game, I had no idea what was happening. It was all so beautiful. Planes were battling above my head. soldiers were running forward. The game, bought online, had come with no manual and no tutorial. I was slightly overwhelmed.
But once you get past the initial awe of "what the hell is happening?" and you get a handle on the controls,  you begin to experience Warhawk. It's amazing, both graphically and in terms of play, and, while this isn't an official review, it's worth far more than the $40 you pay to download it from the PS3 online store.
The way the planes handle make you feel like you're in a real dog fight, and advanced maneuvering is made possible thanks to the two analog sticks on the controller. Flying makes the game, and without it, it'd just be another first person (technically third person) shooter. But even on the ground, you feel like you're making the difference each and every individual soldier should make: a miniscule but necessary difference. Upstairs is where the real battle is fought, but it is on the ground that flags are captured, ground is won, etc. 
There is no story. There's no campaign mode BS. It's full on "kill each other" action.   It's a combination of Halo, Battlefield 1942, and steroids. It's something that you have to experience on your PS3. It's, finally, the game that makes owning a PS3 worth it. It's what makes the PS3 a real gaming machine.

I dl'd it on Monday night and played it for a few hours. I like the gameplay so far but for me the flying is pretty tough. I have to get used to that. I liked the ground combat. Anyone interested in hosting a game tonight?

 I'm trying really hard to get into TW but it just ain't happenin'  It's putting me to sleep, froze up three times in three hours, looks slightly better than a PS2 game, yada yada EA yada.  I guess R:FoM has me spoiled.  I'll probably, trade TW and R6 for Warhawk.  In the end I will have traded 5 games ($300) for Warhawk It better be good

Maybe I should give TW another chance..?
