I'm going with Warhawk:

  • huge, detailed, and well thoughout maps with many smaller "portion" variations
  • ability to serve your own games (ranked or unranked) with parameters you specify (also handy when the official servers are down: there's usually still more than 130 servers to choose from in that case)
  • 32 player games (!)
  • Air and ground combat
  • excellent balance of air and ground vehicles and the various weapons
  • ability to carry nine different weapons simultaneously (soldier: 8 primary + frag grenades, airplane: 8 primary + machine gun)
  • Extensive dev support/new content after launch
So what do you think? What is your favorite game to play online and why?

Not trying to be a fanboy. Of course, it's hard when you own the best console eve... dang it

 It's not really anything super revolutionary, it's just the fact it did everything that is done before, perfectly.

 I really haven't played enough to comment on it fairly, but enough for me to say "wow, it's really well-done"
