is starhawk really that good?

It is a very good game. The multiplayer is unlike anything I've played before. The only thing I can compare it to is Battlefield 3, except you can build whatever buildings you want to help defend you team as well as help the offensive. It's very addicting

i played the beta and it was pretty good but i didnt update the beta and recieve the extra contenet they added later (i guess tanks?) because it was a 1 GB download so i just ignored it. the biggest grip though with the multiplayer is that it didnt seem to offer any unlocks and stuff like that, kinda feels im playing without a purpose if you know what i mean. also how is the single player? (i really dont expect a great story from it so i wont mind of it doest)

You get unlocks, but they're cosmetic unlocks (change the appearance of your character).   I kinda prefer it this way, because it means that as soon as you start playing, you're already on the same level as everyone else - it's your skill (and knowledge of the maps) that can set you apart.

I also vouch for Starhawk multiplayer being good.  The mix of RTS and TPS is unlike anything I've really ever played before.  There's strategy involved in nearly every decision you make.  It's a blast (and LBI are giving it good post-release support, too).

edit: Oh, and about the single player, I certainly enjoyed it.  But I'm sure you've already read - it's about a 5-6 hour tutorial that prepares you for the multiplayer.  It's certainly not one of the best I've played, but definitely not one of the worst either.
