    The single player was mediocre but I had the joy of playing this game in its closed multiplayer testing for 6 months leading up to its official release and beyond.
    When you were in the middle of a competitive 32 player CTF match with base building and vehicles roaming across the map, it was one of the most unique experiences in a multiplayer shooter ever.

    Starhawk sounds like a video game title from an early 2000s Disney Channel original movie in which the main character invites his friends over to his house in the suburb that's about to be demolished to make way for a new shopping mall. They're then woken up early in the morning to the sounds of construction after an all-nighter playing Starhawk, and they then decide enough is enough.
    Complete with loads of references to the main character (low moment; "billy think! What would main character do!?") BIG REVEAL STARHAWK WAS REAL THE WHOLE TIME AND HELPS THE KIDS TAKE DOWN THE COWBOY HAT WEARING TEXAS OIL BARON

    This game's brilliant concept of a Shooter/RTS hybrid could only truly shine in a multiplayer setting.
    I especially enjoyed the capture the flag mode, where 32 players would run around creating whole damn bases around their flag positions, fortifying it with bunkers, surrounded by wall-mounted turrets, covered by sniper towers, protected by force fields and anti-aircraft guns below them. And building your own base was kinda fun on its own, but going inside of the enemy base and getting back alive was a whole another experience. Very enjoyable gameplay.
    Imagine how such a game concept would look on the current generation of consoles/

    Starhawk was the sequel to Warhawk, which was a fairly fun multiplayer game on PS3 towards the beginning I think. I remember being so hyped for Starhawk because it had building. I also liked the main character and the concept just seemed similar to Warhawk. It was these massive battles where you could crew vehicles and .. I mean, it's just like any big team battle game. I don't know what happened with Starhawk though. It jkinda dropped off.
