Genres:Strategy, Shooter, Real Time Strategy (RTS)
Themes:Action, Science fiction
Game modes:Single player, Multiplayer
Story:In the far reaches of space, factions of humanity battle over a rare and dangerous resource known as Rift Energy. Colonies of humans called Rifters have been exploring the "Frontier" of planets, but find their way of life threatened by the Outcast, a ruthless species of humans who have mutated into psychotic monsters due to exposure to this very same Rift Energy. Caught in the middle is Emmett Graves, a hired gunslinger ostracized from society because of his own exposure to Rift Energy, leaving him partially mutated, but still able to retain his humanity. Graves is drawn back to his home settlement to face a mysterious outlaw and his war band of Outcast warriors. Starhawk provides fast paced third-person shooter action set in this lawless frontier of space, allowing players to instantly alter the battlefield by calling down offensive and defensive structures in real-time from an orbiting drop ship, all while blasting away at enemies in the middle of huge single-player or multi-player firefights.Show more

this game was so much fun, it was one of the few games that actually got me into playing multiplayer and was sad to hear it's servers were shut down a few years back but at least the single player was still a blast. i always enjoyed just giving NPCs a vehicle and watching them drive off to take out an enemy, one driver and one soldier manning the gatlin gun, circling a structure and taking out enemies. or building a bunch of winged mechs and seeing soldiers take off and fly above me in a sea of bullets and explosions. such great memories
One of the coolest aesthetics in gaming during the 7th generation. Sadly I could not play as much as I could when it came out because of school obligations and health issues. Would love to bring it back, even with bots

Jagged Alliance features: 60 mercenaries... 60 attitudes... 60 voices; intense turn-based combat lets you plan every action; non-linear gameplay; three exciting levels of play will determine if you're as good as you think you are and a replay feature to look for Santino's Achilles heel - you'll need all the help you can get! An exciting game design approach - role playing and strategy - puts you in the thick of the action!
