Well, the title says it all... Is it_

Hawken is indeed at E3 this year!   G4 has planned a special segment for Hawken, which will feature an all new level (hint). So expect brand new footage, as well as more information regarding the multiplayer modes. I'm not too sure when exactly the segment will be broadcasted, so stick to G4 TV, their website, and their Twitter account over the next two days to remain up to date.

I predict a huge forum influx ^^

New footage on a new level you say_. That's cool!

That level seems too be more of a colonial desert region, from what I've seen in the region. Relatively less developed. If they are going to show more I can also see a purple themed region which seems to be relatively developed compared to the urban region and the desert region.

If I may clarify, that article summarizes the information divulged during the video interview with GameTrailers.com last week. Even more new footage and information has yet to come, my friend!

Ye got a bit over excited and missed the obvious, cried a bit when the link finally worked. :]

Back to sitting here hitting F5, waiting for The News.

Wanna bet that once Hawken gets some global publicity at E3, they'll kickoff a Mech phase within the industry.
Hawken is in a niche field that devoid atm and I reckon the attention it'll get will bait other developers to work on their own Mech sims!

The info from the GT interview is very interesting indeed and that new Pic is very tasty!  Once again the artists(and other devs) working on Hawken are showin that they are very talented people who, as a small developer, can stand against the big companies that dominate the show!  
I feel that Adhesive Games are very inspirational to folks like myself in the modding community as they prove that you don't have to be big to create something special!  :!:

I'm sure they'll update the homepage as soon as their E3 stuff is released

[3leggedFreak]

Just realized Los Angeles is 9 hours behind from where I live so any news will probably surface when I'm sleeping like a baby. Well, hope for great stuff in the morning! =)

Not yet. X-Play will be airing soon on G4, so stay tuned for more news as it develops. I'm not sure how long it takes for G4 to upload their broadcasted segments online, so watching the show looks to be your best bet. I'll do my best to keep everyone updated.

Alright! Khang Le is now on X-Play showing off Hawken! Get excited!

Edit: Ok, segments over. But holy cow! There was a lot of new stuff! The new map featured a distinctly different environment from what we've been treated to thus far, showcasing facilities sprawled across a desert. The footage had a couple tid-bits too, such as the ability to change weapons and reallocate points in between respawns, as well as the multi-mech station where players deposit the resources they've accumulated over the course of the match. Another juicy bit of info came from Mr. Le himself, stating that the giant aircrafts that loom over the battlefield can be taken down and harvested for resources. I hope many of you were also able to check it out, but I'll be sure to post the segment as soon as it hits the net in case you missed it.

I mean, I recorded it on my TV's DVR, but I have no idea how one would put that onto the net.

[LordPorkSword]

Great news to hear the hovering ships are used in-game rather than just backdrop assets! [insert beer here]

[lavalamp1138]

Alright, the video has finally hit the net! You can find it here. For the sake of making it easily locatable for others, and to regulate discussion, I created a separate thread specifically for G4's demo.
