Killzone 2. Is this the FPS to raise the bar in console FPS?

Now I have been a member of Killzone.com and the offical Playstation forums for a while now and the pretty cool thing with these two forums is that you get rarely but it happens talk to the DEVS of Killzone 2.

IMO this game is going to raise the bar in console FPS.

The multiplayer alone, the classes the different skills you have for each class. the graphics won't differ from the campaign. The way they are going out of there way with Clan support, I have never been a part of a clan before but what they are doing is so impressive I am actually thinking of joining one or starting one.

The only downside is Feb 2009 is too far away, but you know what they say "The best things come to those who wait". Well here's hoping.8)

i'm waiting, i'm not sure if it will raise the bar, but it will surely be fun.CookieGoat

The amount of time, effort, hype and $$$ Sony has put into this game, it better raise the bar. If it's just as good as game released over a year ago........that's failure. Sony needs some good press for once, if this game became the must own FPS next year.....just watch the US install base jump up dramatically. For some reason we love to kill things here in the states.

if the game is anything like the mutliplayer trailer shown off...i wont be surprised if it raises the bar.

the single player....meh....multiplayer looks killer

sorry but they raised the bar to high when they allowed you to finally look up and down

I doubt it'll raise the bar for FPS's...it seems like a pretty standard FPS if you ask me and i don't mean that in a bad way.

After excellent games like Bioshock and The Darkness I really, really doubt it. It'll still be a good game, just no where near as good as people are hyping it. Silent-Hal

Exactly, with games like Bioshock already a year old, I don't even think Killzone 2 will reach the bar, let alone raise it. Remember everyone hyped the first Killzone only for it to get 7.2'd.

The game does look amazing though, and I hope it turns out well...I just don't see it being anything groundbreaking. Lets hope I'm wrong.

I think the thing I am excited about this game the most is the custom games.

You can pick the map and gametype, then the next game different map different game type and so on, and it play these games in a loop. I hav'nt seen a Multiplayer console FPS game do this yet where you can continuely play different maps and gametypes straight after another. usually you would have to go back to the lobby and create a new game.

Also the class where you can mix your classes, for example you could be a scout with the cloaking device and also medic where you could heal or leave medi packs. the customisation will guarentee really epic fights and great team play as the more I have read and looked into this it looks like Killzone 2 main aim is to force team work when it comes to multipayer, which is great.
