Warhawk Operation: Fallen Star available for $8 this week
As revealed at Leipzig, Warhawk Operation: Fallen Star is coming this week. A new update on the PlayStation.blog confirms a few new details: like the 30 new map configurations, many of which accommodate the new jetpack. "In total there are 10 new layouts for Tau Crater and since the jetpack is a massive, game-changing addition to Warhawk, we included a crap-ton of bonus layouts for the original game too - there are 30 bonus layouts that add jetpacks into the Warhawk's original content."
The jetpack looks fairly intuitive to control, from its description. Like piloting a Warhawk, the shoulder buttons are key to maintaining and controlling your altitude. To prevent everyone from having a jetpack at the same time, the stations which provide the jetpacks will have some "construction time" to space out the availability of new jetpacks.
The Fallen Star expansion will cost $8, but a new bundle that features all three expansions will be available for $16. "That's like getting all 3 Booster-Packs for the price of only 2!!!" For those that are recent additions to the Warhawk world (thanks to its Greatest Hits price), this new bundle is certainly a good way of adding a lot of content to the game.

Kodros @ Aug 25th 2008 11:56AM
Need the expansion for the Jetpacks. Trophies come with the 1.5 patch which is free.

How about Broken Mirror and Fallen Star for $12 like the other combo pack for those that only have Omega Dawn?
The_Vandelizer @ Aug 25th 2008 11:38AM
i thought it was free....
Kodros @ Aug 25th 2008 11:50AM
How could you possibly think it was free when the previous two expansions weren't?
Double @ Aug 25th 2008 12:10PM
Because the trailer says "Free summer download"
AlterEgo @ Aug 25th 2008 12:25PM
The expansion is not free (Fallen Star), but the patch v1.5 is free.

Well the update is free, but we europeans have to pay more for the psn-content than the rest of the world ... well i guess we're used to that ... right?

The expansions have always been around $8. The updates have always been free. Even if you don't buy the expansions, you still get some extra free stuff (like Hero and Collection mode).

There should be multiple pack options. I bought the first expansion the day it came out, but I haven't bought the last two. There's a pack with the first two expansions, and now they're releasing a pack with all three, but I still have to buy these last two at retail price.

I felt burned after the last expansion -given its the only the cost of a mixed-drink, but rarely do the top zone players play with the expansions, and I haven't seen the 2 newish maps or hovercraft since like April.
I'll likely take the plunge and get back into W.Hawk. It is fun when you're on a good team. Hell doesn't describe what it's like to be on a bad team.

lmao you're not lying.
being on a good vs bad team is like heaven vs hell SERIOUSLY

I live in england, but have a american import version of Warhawk on disc, i only got it the other day, anyways i was reading that the 2 current expansion packs were region locked and wouldnt work with my disc but all the threads were quite old ones, dont suppose anyone knows if its still the same situation or will they work now? like have they been unlocked or something after people complained
