Its official folks sorry to break it to cows but the great hope is gone

http://forums.gametrailers.com/?do=show_thread&id=579968

So as you can see the multiplat is better then the exclusive KZ2 and more then likely the 360 has the superior version because all the multiplats are always better on the 360.

Cows are 0/1 so far...

I'll take that with a grain of salt, but I warned the cows. I never understood why people would hype Killzone 2 like it's the 2nd coming, and bash 50's new game in the same breath. At least 50's new game has a different developer with a much higher pedigree than the first, while Killzone 2 has the same developer that made the first s**tty game with a bigger budget. Maybe I'm crazy. :|

lol this is fake right :lol: 4/5 50 cent game 3.5/5 for killzone 2. the writer for maximum is either stupid and is a big fan of 50 cent or really dislikes killzone. the first 50 cent game was horrible but sold a crap load of games got platinum hit.

No score matters here except for that of Gamespot, that is how it was when PS3 games did much better on other sites and that's how it will be now.

Link to forum = fail #1

maxim score = fail #2

thread out of sticky = fail #3

not admitting KZ2 will be a good game = fail as a gamer.

Anything 50 Cent is absolute crap. He's a terrible musician and he sounds like a dumb oxen trying to grunt in the microphone. His book is a waste of eye batteries; his movie is shallow and exaggerated; and his games, oh God.... Clearly Maxim doesn't know what the hell they are talking about.

It's 50 Cent. It's a brain-dead musician that wants to become a trillionaire off of idiots that buy his crap. I don't care if the game is decent, it's 50 Cent, and that's all that matters. If only the bullets that him were fatal...

And apparently Killzone 2 is better than Street Fighter IV. So I guess it's ownage all around according to Maxim. But no one decides to look at that logic. By the way this thread should be locked as this has once again already been discussed in the Killzone 2 sticky.

ive figured it out... it looks like a traditional 5 rating system however clearly its the furthest from the middle the crappier the game is , hence kz2 and sf4 are really both 5/5's

I wonder if they actually play the games or just go by some previews and throw in a score. Games are obviously not their main focus.

No, there are tons of positive reviews on Killzone 2, all over AAA except for Maxim.

MEGamer 9.9

576 Kbyte Mag. 9.7

OPM: UK 9.0

OPM: US 10

Game Play Magazine 10

There are more, but I can't remember them all. But the review I am looking forward to the most is IGN, most of the time I agree with their reviews. But here on Gamespot, the only review that counts is Gamespot.

Edit: there was one that I missed.

Every single review that I have stated has in fact been accurate. So I don't know what your getting at that it's only received 2 reviews. MEGamers is a creditable source on Metacritic and that was a 9.9.

Maximum's Blog Editor

Hi,

Thanks for making MY review and preview the subject of your post, but please direct your ire at the specified writer and not at others, like me, who also cover video games for the company. Your blog post is wondering why two reviews (my arcade review and the mag's console review) have different scores when they were written by TWO different people. Obviously they will be different.

Also, on the point of a payola conspiracy, I think that's quite out of line. If there is something going on, I certainly am not getting a cut nor would I be writing for a publication that participated in that. I play every single game I review to completion (feel free to check my gamertag/PSN, childlikeslave; I have some trophies/achievements on my debug unit) before I submit a review and I try, as far-fetched as it seems to some, to present an argument for every score that makes sense to our specific readership.

Anyway, feel free to check back after Feb. 2 for MY reviews of the games. I am under embargo until then, but I am sure you'll see that I have wildly differing perspectives on each.

Thanks,

-G

But seriously guys, maybe the guys at Maxim found BitS better than KZ2. It is possible you know. I mean I think the first 50 cent is better than both KOTOR games put together because those games suck fat..........yeah.......

Oh, ok I see. Well then, those two are a 10 and a 9.0. So if you really go by Gamerankings, than it is confirmed that thus far Killzone 2 is a AAA title, and will be until the time that other reviews are posted.

Which in retrospect I think you will be wrong in your statement, knowing on how well it's being reviewed from other Official Magazines and gaming websites that are not affiliated with Gamerankings, but other sites like Metacritic.

Lol 50 Cent. How the hell did this guy get so popular? Only thing he manages to do is get in the way of Eminem's songs when he's featured in 'em. I have listened to lot of Eminem songs with 50, yet the only song I can enjoy 50's voice is in the song "Bump heads" where he sings the chorus.

An Eminem game, that would be something to look forward to. As long as it's done by a serious developer that is. Then again, Eminem isn't known for cashing in on his success and making a mediocre product. See: 8 Mile.
