Welcome to the Spuddy review of Warhawk! Here I will inform you about the quality of gameplay, graphics, sound, and presentation of the game.
---------------------------------------------
Warhawk is kind of a hard game to review, as I may not see it and play it as you do. Everyone has different tactics and will play it in a different way. Someone may be a sniper, or jump right into a tank or Warhawk, or just be an ass by camping and picking off people with their ever annoying, one-hit-kill knife. The game contains lots of teamwork, but despite what you might hear, the consistency of it all can fall a bit short of expectations.
First off, gameplay. Most importantly, it's fun, and there are epic battles here and there. There is tons of teamwork required, and many times you can't just run into an enemy base and steal it. You have to work together to succeed. But weapon consistency is dreadful.
Although there is no apparent lag, hits may not register, or you may find that you throw your entire arsenal at one soldier, and are about to kill him, but then the enemy throws one grenade a few feet away from you and you can die instantly. Also,...

KA-BOOM!

I've heard quite a bit about Battlefield: Bad Company, what with it's destructible maps and great online, and after watching a lot of convincing gameplay videos, I decided to download the demo. It's only made me more impressed.
What I've learned about the game so far is, you are a member of "Bad Company", a special military squad made of troublemakers and misfits that are sent into battle before the rest of the military because they are expendable. You fight along a couple of other silly soldiers known as Sweetwater and Haggard, as well as the leader of the bunch, Sergeant D. Redford, who volunteered to shorten his term of service to the army.
From the moment you see it, Bad Company is a feast for the eyes. The graphics are all great, the guns and characters detailed, and the explosions sharp. The big visual amazement is the very highly destructible environments. Houses are realistically destroyed and watertowers, trees, and satellites fall.

The boxart doesn't even look promising.

Ugh. This game is drastically horrible that I have no why I'm even reviewing it. Anyway, the game takes place at ACME Looniversity, where Plucky forgets to write his book report and decides to build a time machine so he can change the past and do his homework. Now that I've got the story explained, I'll just skip to the review.
Gameplay:
Thankfully, the controls aren't sloppy in any way. You basically move Plucky around using the analog stick, which sounds very simple. I don't have too much to explain here, so I'll just sum up this part of the review by saying that controls for just about everything you do in the game don't take very long to get used to. Overall, the gameplay gets a 9/10 (though I might be giving the game too much credit)
Music and Audio
The music isn't anything special in this game. Sure, the theme song for the show plays while you navigate through the main menu, but in-game the music isn't worth even humming along with. Also, there are no voices for the characters, so you never get to hear any of the toons' hilarious voice work at all. Overall, the music and the audio get a 3/10 (hey,...
