Am I the only one here who thinks that Killzone 2 will still suck? I mean, the first one was HORRIBLE and that's an understatement! The graphics were "muddy", the framerate was constantly dropping, the weapons sucked and most of them were like the same thing! Sniper Rifle, WTF was up with aiming with it!? The campaign was repetitive, the story was terrible, the AI acted like a bunch of screaming monkies and the enemies were SO ANNOYING. They said the same things over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over again. It was obviously no Halo killer!

Now Killzone 2 is around the corner. It has flashier graphics but it still looks horrible! Same annoying Enemies, same boring squad-mates, etc. Something tells me that Killzone 2 will be as good as the first Killzone, which by the way was horrible if you didnt read the first paragraph! The devs should've started a completley new series. That's how horrible the first Killzone was. Am I the only one who believes that it will stink and the "genes" will be passed down?

Killzone 2 looks bad not because of the first game, but because it looks generic.

The first one was a terrible game. Most of the things that I hated about it will be making a comeback!

so now that the devs have got a huge budget and the backing of sony , its still gonna suck.

its gameplay might not be revolutionary but i think it might get a 9.0 here.

All I can say is wow. What is up with the constant repeated threads?! How many more times does a "the first one sucked so that means the second will too" threads?

By your logic that also means Fable 2 will underdeliver because the first did. Grow up, let the game come out and then compare.

I love the TC's logic. Honestly, I don't really hope the game does bad, but it really looks generic.

I love the logic and according to your last paragraph, the devs should of started a new IP? Well in that case, Rockstar should of just gave up on the GTA series when the first one got a 6.9. :|

The first one held such high expectations. The demo was pretty cool. But the actual game itself turned out to be a pile of turd. The second one looks similiar to the first one except that it has flashier graphics. Same weapons and enemies.

Like how the locusts in Gears 2 look just like the ones from Gears 1 and how there were no new enemies in the footage?

Am I the only one here who thinks that Killzone 2 will still suck? I mean, the first one was HORRIBLE and that's an understatement!

The_Decapitated

It was made by a different team. You may say "no, it's still Guerrilla Games", but that would be correct only in name. The original Killzone was made by around 40 or so people. Killzone 2 is being made by over 120 people, the bulk of which have been brought in from other successful Sony studios. It also has a massive budget which has been used to hire new talent.

The graphics were "muddy", the framerate was constantly dropping, the weapons sucked and most of them were like the same thing! Sniper Rifle, WTF was up with aiming with it!? The campaign was repetitive, the story was terrible, the AI acted like a bunch of screaming monkies and the enemies were SO ANNOYING. They said the same things over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over again. It was obviously no Halo killer! The_Decapitated

It's war, what did you expect it to look like? Bright colors and pretty rainbows? The framerate has been a rock solid 30fps in all the recent Killzone 2 media, and it's still got 9 months left of development time to iron out any kinks. It has more weapons than the first Killzone, has a more varied campaign (although I can't comment on the story), and the AI is in the process of being designed by one of the best AI programmers in the industry (it is not ready yet though, hence the dumb placeholder AI seen so far).

Now Killzone 2 is around the corner. It has flashier graphics but it still looks horrible! Same annoying Enemies, same boring squad-mates, etc. Something tells me that Killzone 2 will be as good as the first Killzone, which by the way was horrible if you didnt read the first paragraph! The devs should've started a completley new series. That's how horrible the first Killzone was. Am I the only one who believes that it will stink and the "genes" will be passed down?

The_Decapitated

Killzone 2 is going to improve on the original in every way, as i've shown in the above paragraph. The team is different, and have already demonstrated how skilled they are at exploiting the PS3's power and making a great game to play in the process. They still haven't even shown the online and co-op.

Here's an idea, lets all wait until the game is actually released so that we don't...

Regardless of what you may think, it's a completely different game, and could be a great one for all we know. Save your judgement for when you actually play the game.

:roll: Why do people still judge Killzone 2 because of the first? Its a whole new dev team working on it + Sony brought in over 100 of their own guys to work on it, a very large budget doesnt hurt either. Killzone 1 was made by a small group with little funding.

I think Killzone 2 will flop. If it does, it might be WORSE than the Killzone 1 flop. I'm not saying KZ2 will get a worse score. I'm saying that I think Guerrilla is putting more effort and time into KZ2. With delays, and Guerrilla really trying hard, if KZ2 flops, then that means Guerrilla is really a bad developer. I think they might have rushed Killzone 1. But, they are really taking their time trying to get KZ2 right. If they can't make KZ2 halfway descent with all the time in the world, then they are truly flop developers.

each time a useless threads bashing KZ2, gets me more hyped get this game...

Its funny how haters (mostly blind lemmings) bash KZ2's gameplay, stating its generic or even boring... Can they please tell me where they bought KZ2 so i got get it since i just saw a gameplay vid for the game and from those 2 mins i cannot deduct that THE gameplay is boring...

Ohh so KZ2 will suck because well KZ1 was an average title... mmm wow thats a reason which should have taken weeks and massive hours of thoughts and research in order to come up with that conclusion... come on... Just say that you want KZ2 to flop badly because its a PS3 exclusive... no need for sad reasons...

I have seen many great titles for which their sequels DIDN't live up to the expectations and delivered much less than what was expected and what was delivered by their prequels...

KZ2's problem are not graphically (cause its looking good), not even gameplay wise (it SEEMS fast, frentic and shooting seems good), its only problem is that its a PS3 exclusive.... I have high hopes on this game, but will wait till Feb 2009 when its released and i play the game before i judge... haters should do the same...

Didn't the original Killzone score a 7?

Is that now considered "horrible"? I thought that still meant "good"... >.>

SO i guess that means that Gears of War 2 is going to stink too and even more so than K2 because there is a lot less developement put into it and far less time.

the Gametrailers guys said it felt pretty generic in their latest podcast. They also surprisingly said that the graphics weren't as good as they had seen in the latest media.

I know logic doesn't exist here in System Wars but, shouldn't we wait until the game comes out and everybody plays it first instead of posting a mindless essay on why you think it "will suck"? Just a thought.

Killzone 2 looks like it might be good. I'm definitely interested in it.

The original Killzone wasn't "horrible", it was a pretty decent game, and 6.9 is'nt THAT bad of a score either. The only thing that brought killzone down was the hype.

alot of hate coming from wii fanboys. Just sit back and play something else to it comes out.
