Ah, finally here, got it on wednesday and have been playing the crap out of it, too much i think.
It's just a great game, something i think people will be playing years from now perhaps especially with the integration with killzone.com and clans and tournaments and all the classes and ranks,etc.

It's also GORGEEOUS. Sometimes you just stare and stare because it's so beautiful.

Single player is also pretty good although im at a frustrating part, the story isnt the greatest but i really did feel the pain the characters went thru.

Get this game, everyone else on your friends list will.

This morning, I got a text message from my sister saying that a bunch of her friends waited for the midnight release to get it, but were disappointed when they finally got to play it.

It's something you get a hang of if theyre talking about controls. I don't think i've been disappointed, if you played the demo, you knew what the game was going to be like.

Don't take this the wrong way, but I'd rather hear positive reactions to this particular game from someone other than you.

Well try reading some reviews from "real" people.
Also, i have no obligation to like killzone 2 just because its on the ps3, i like it because its a great game.
You didn't tell me what your sister and her friends were disappointed about

i played this game and hated it. Everything about it sucks. it looked decent but really it should've looked seven times better. Also, the only way you can control ALL OF THE KILLER ROBOTIC BOATS IS WITH A HANDGRENADE.

PS I DONT HAVE A PS3 OR THIS VIDEOGAME.

One thing I don't get about the anticipation for this game is that the first one wasn't that good. K2 looks fantastic graphics-wise, but after the whole pre-rendered "gameplay footage" fiasco anything less than gorgeous would've caused many to write the game off. I'll play it if/when I get the chance, but it's not like Killzone is the best videogame pedigree. I'd rather see a PS3 Timesplitters.

if you played the demo, you knew what the game was going to be like.

And man, was I disappointed at it. Certainly didn't warrant a midnight release. Maybe a rental. The only way this would be a Halo-killer is if it was cheaper.

Microshock

Mar 1st, 2009, 04:34 AM

It's not a halo killer because halo didnt need a slayer. It's a great game, plain and simple.
The multiplayer are the guts and glory of this title and the story is pretty good i'd say.

Seriously, regardless what you think, this is a huge game and it will have people playing for years especially with the killzone.com functionality.

Yesterday, I saw an ad for this that read "5 STARS OUT OF 5" and then in very small print underneath, it said "Official Playstation Magazine" or something like that.

Really, official playstation magazine? You LIKED the one game that's supposed to move your system? I'm shocked.

I hate Killzone 2 for two reasons:

Stupid Sony fans (Adam Sessler's rant on G4 was fucking priceless)
Stupid AntiSony jerks

Someday, people will be allowed to like videogames. Until then, everyone must hate every game just because.

That said, this game's not too shabby. Admittedly, I'm not a fan of the FPS genre outside of TF2 and HL2, but I've played worse than Killzone 2.

Zomboid, the official magazine is not owned by Sony i believe, i think it's Future publishing which also does Nintendo Power and the official xbox magazine.
They were harsh on sony games before and hell they might be trust worthy, but you can look at other reviews if you want.

Phoenix, wouldnt you be one of those anti killzone 2 jerks if you hated it just because you hated anti sony jerks?

Maybe when you buy a ps3, you wouldnt complain as much.

What.

First of all, I own a PS3.

And second of all, I didn't say the game was bad. I just hate how people are making a big deal out of a game that isn't a big deal. Well, except for the fact that it's console exclusive, and Sony fanboys need to constantly justify their purchase to everyone on the internet. Even though the PS3 doesn't need much justifying at this point, seeing how its library is finally picking up (fast too).

And finally, wouldn't hating both sides of this stupid "poo poo your system r sux" fanboy war make me impartial? I can't even be neutral.

I thought even Sony fanboys didn't give a shit about Killzone.

Phoenix Gamma

Mar 3rd, 2009, 06:10 PM

It's not just some average release, though. Sony fanboys are hyping it up to be THE BEST GAME EVAAAAR! so naturally, people are going to be commenting as if the hype actually influences the game itself.

I guess. I just don't see where the hype came from, because not too many people remember Killzone 1. It's not as recognizable as Halo or Call of Duty.

I just think it's strange, is all. Maybe Sony just did a good job at marketing it or something.

Fathom Zero

Mar 3rd, 2009, 07:07 PM

I played my friend's copy for a bit on his PS3, and man, am I good at multiplayer. Fuck, people are just dumb. There is still the phenomenon present as it was in Call Of Duty where if you and an enemy are close together, you'll dance around each other meleeing for a good five seconds before someone reloads their empty gun or finally gets a melee kill. This doesn't happen in Halo 3 because of the way the game moves. Halo 3 is much more enjoyable in close-quarters.

The standard rifle with that green sight is a piece of shit. Utter shit. You can't see out of the damn thing and it doesn't give you an indicator that you've hit something. I prefer the FAMAS-looking one with the iron sights.

Microshock

Mar 3rd, 2009, 10:13 PM

Phoenix, i was talking to zomboid about getting the ps3 part.
And i like the standard M84 or whatever it's called rifle. Very very accurate, most accurate gun in the game other than sniper.

And it was hyped because of that E3 2005 trailer, which showed amazing graphics and action, etc, if you look back at the trailer now though, it doesnt hold a candle to the game. One of the first times the game has beaten the cgi trailer?

Also hyped because well Sony didnt really have shooters, that was their weak point against the xbox. So now they have Resistance and Killzone, and i think they finally have beaten the 360 in shooters and..pretty much everything else.

Zomboid

Mar 3rd, 2009, 11:29 PM

Yes, because of two games that are getting mixed reviews, the ps3 has overtaken the 360 in everything. That is some good logic, Opie.

Statements like this are why I wanted to get other people's opinions on the game.

Dr. Boogie, you've written that already, just go read someone else's reviews or thoughts on it if you think my thoughts are non-trustworthy.

Zomboid: http://www.metacritic.com/games/platforms/ps3/resistance2?q=resistance%202 (http://www.metacritic.com/games/platforms/ps3/resistance2?q=resistance%202) , thats a 87 Metascore on Resistance 2, great score i'd say.
Now let's look at Killzone 2:
http://www.metacritic.com/games/platforms/ps3/killzone2 91 Metascore, now i know you'll scroll all the way down past the 100's and 95 reviews and look straight at those three 70 reviews but seriously, not mixed.

Really, if you want to argue why i think the ps3 is better in games and hardware and features, etc, i can do it quite easily

Right, because i obviously dont play my PC, right? I must be a huge fanboy because i like a good game!

Oh man, if this was on your 360, you'd be saying, hey this is a fucking an awesome game, ohh too bad its not on the ps3!

Look sorry you don't own one, just buy one, and you dont have to complain about me being a fanboy and just see it for yourself.

Zomboid

Mar 5th, 2009, 01:14 PM

Yeah, you're making a great case for yourself here.

Is there a way to ban this little shit from the gaming forum? Can we make it so every post that he makes that has "ps3" "kill" or the letter "x" just doesn't go through?

Microshock

Mar 5th, 2009, 01:38 PM

Great case for myself here? I don't understand. This is about Killzone 2, i am sorry you somehow hate the ps3 and have a skewed view in your head about it, but that's what this thread is about, you knew it was on the ps3, yet you still came in here to complain.

Micro... Everyone knew you were just a PS3 fanboy before this thread ever started. Anything you say about the PS3 or any of its games is taken with not just a grain but a pound of salt. As far as killzone 2 goes... its total crap. Im not sure when the game came out (because I just dont care) but it was recently, and it already has a patch to fix some of its game breaking bugs. Even if it did work perfectly fine, its still just a polished up rehash of the first one. Here...

http://www.destructoid.com/how-killzone-2-is-blatantly-better-than-halo-3-123412.phtml

That is what you sound like.

Microshock

Mar 12th, 2009, 10:34 PM

WOW. People complaining about a company fixing bugs? They fixed the lag that certain people had on 1080p tv's. They also fixed some things like the shotgun auto aim.
Anyone honestly thinking the game would be perfect is obviously a bit dumb, because no game will be, there were no game breaking bugs, please stop over exaggerating on a game you've never even played.

Total crap because Guerilla actually cares? huh.
And a lot of things are better than halo 3, i like what halo 3 does, but its not exactly the best fps out there. I don't think there is a best fps out there, killzone 2 is definitely in the top 5 for me.

AS far as me being a ps3 fanboy, im not, i like what microsoft did with GWF Live, as far as integrating everything like gamerpoints and stuff, and being able to talk to someone on xbox live.
I don't like what Microsoft did with the 360, they did the opposite of what the PC does, which is not providing open hardware and not having free online play.
It also doesn't have a great selection of exclusives for me, i only see gears of war 2 and halo 3, and sometimes a timed exclusive like Braid or whatever..I am not interested in their JRPGs or RPG's at all.

Last generation i bought an xbox instead of a ps2 and i regretted it because i had nothing to get on it. Chronicles of Riddick, Halo 1 and 2 and San Andreas was all i could play. And looking at this generation, the xbox is just another shooter filled box with 1 or 2 good titles on the side but nothing particularly amazing.
I love the variety of games the ps3 provides from LBP to Killzone 2 to Flower, games i cannot get on the PC or 360
