Warhawk game is a futuristic combat flight-sim game for the PlayStation. Made by Singletrac of Twisted Metal fame. It was remade in 2007 for the PlayStation 3.

Tropes used in Warhawk include:

• All Up to You: The two pilots even complain about it during the cutscenes.
• Applied Phlebotinum: Red mercury.
• Battleship Raid: The third level.
• Charged Attack: The Plasma cannon, though you'll eventually waste ammo if you hold on it too much.
• Full Motion Video: The cutscenes are mostly live-action.
• Have a Nice Death: Several times over. In one case, the villain laughs so hard at your failure that he chokes to death.
• It's a Wonderful Failure: Getting a Game Over will show a Scrolling Text (different depending on which level you lost your last life in) emphasizing how much you cocked up.
• Jet Pack: The "Fallen Star" expansion adds jet packs.
• Macross Missile Massacre: The swarmers, which are curiously less powerful than the single lock-on missiles.
• Smart Bomb: The rare Doomsday pickup.
• Subsystem Damage: Each sides of the Warhawk has its own shielding and parts such as the wings or the radar can be destroyed, with appropriate effect.
• The Cameo: A Warhawk appears as the final boss of Twisted Metal: Black.
