Test Chamber – Starhawk

Due to Jeff Marchiafava's crippling fear of asteroids, he's the last person Game Informer would ever launch into space. He bravely faced his phobia when he stepped forward to tackle our Starhawk review. Jeff nagged me to shoot a Test Chamber episode of this game, claiming he had "mad space skills." After that, he didn't need to twist my arm any more. I had to see this kid in action. Sit back and join Jeff and I for a comprehensive look at Starhawk's single-player campaign. Jeff shows us how to build bases, dogfight in space, and get shot in the face repeatedly.

Check out our Test Chamber hub for a full listing of episodes!

  • Sexy...
  • Test Chamber!!! WOO!

    That game looked so meh though...
  • Wait....Is that Action Hank?

  • This actually looks pretty slick.

  • I virtually always agree with Jeff Marchiafava's reviews and opinions - he's usually my go-to source for games I might enjoy - but this game seems pretty cool. I'm a bit torn, as I imagine I would love the starfighter battles, but I'm not sold on anything else. Still not sure if I should buy this one.
  • Nice, thanks for more Test Chamber. I was worried the Super Replay was going to stall this fine little program. Starhawk is not even on my radar, but that's why this show is so great! Thanks for the heads up!
  • This game looks awesome.

  • Cool, been waiting for this....ok I wasn't but I'm still pleased to see this.

  • I'm lovin' this game so far. I can see Jeff's complaints, but I'd give it a 8.5. to a 9 after my initial experience. I'll probably write a full user review after spending more time with it.

  • That guy sniping you in the back was an awesome death.

  • I just started playing this game and I'm loving it. The gameplay is great and it's very satisfying to see your buildings and vehicles crash to earth from space.
  • So buying this game

  • The soundtrack sounds awesome and the base building is super fast, I like that.

  • The game looks quite interesting. Might have to give it a rental and buy it if I think it'll hold my interest.

  • Awesome...

  • Great Test Chamber! Starhawk looks okay. Great graphics and style, but the gameplay seems generic. Nonetheless I'll probably run through it.

  • game looks ok, thanks for the episode though!
  • I think Jeff had a stick up his a$$ when he reviewed this game, look at IGN's review. And I have played this game, and the ground controls, well, I would put them up there with the smoothness of CoD's controls. The game totally deserves a 8.5 - 9.0.
  • You guys need to do a Crimson Skies replay!

  • Halo does have a brake button, and a slide button just so you know.
