Ubisoft tradem.a.r.x. 'H.A.W.X.'
Nick Chester

Internet trademark-finder extraordinaire Mork has uncovered a new Ubisoft trademark for "H.A.W.X." in relation to "game software and electronic game programs." Related "H.A.W.X." filings were also uncovered that related to television programs, action figures, plush toys, and computer game instruction manuals. 

Mork points out that Kotaku had uncovered a trademark for "Strike Hawk" in relation to a videogame, but can't seem to make any other connections. Neither can we, quite frankly, but with Ubisoft's Ubidays on the horizon, it's possible we may be hearing more soon. Considering this is Ubisoft, there's a fifty-percent chance Tom Clancy's name will be attached to the title.

Fun hawk fact: Large hawks lay one one or two eggs each year, whereas smaller hawks can lay between three and five. Wild. [Source: Birds of Prey Foundation]

The "X" means it's EXTREME!

If it's connected to that other trademark, it's probably some retared special "technology" or "feature" in the gameplay that goes along with it.

Maybe it will be like metal flying hawks playing guitars.

Yes! The cowboy Silver Hawk wailing on the guitar was incredible!

I miss the 80's. So many trippy cartoons back then. At least theres Adult Swim to ease the loss.

An Ubisoft release list from 2006 had a game called "Tom Clancy's Firehawk" on it. This was back when GRAW 2 was still being referred to as an expansion pack.

omfg, i forgot all about silverhawks.

i think i had a little 80's nut action in my 80's gym shorts (with the white stripes down the side and my socks pulled up and kicking some roo shoes w/the pockets).

Apparently, the cowboy Silverhawk's name is Bluegrass and occasionally pilots his ship with his guitar. What a badass.
