Reviews:
The Open Beta starts tomorrow. Anyone game? There is a also a Single Player demo hitting on Feburary 16th.
I think it's funny how the Killzone series went from being the most hyped series to the least hyped in a matter of two years. KZ2 really was disappointing in that it just couldn't live up to the massive expectations.
That aside, i thought the multiplayer was phenomenal. Warzone was a clever online mode that for some reason not many online shooters adapted. I was in the beta for a little while and the game certainly feels tailored to cater to a wider audience. Not sure if it's for the best. That said, the game still felt Killzone. The heavy controls are still there but the game is a lot more responsive. Players have less health. Most guns now have sights and there are Mechs and Jet Packs around to keep the COD freaks, but there are only a few of those in each levels so it's not unbalanced like in COD where you can like 4 choppers, harriers and AC-130s in the air at the same time. There are Killstreaks but they dont give you any rewards outside of XP bonus.
Not completely thrilled about all the changes, but I need to play more to see how broken the aim assist and low health combo really is.
Anyway, here are some cool stats about Killzone 3.
