[QUOTE="jujutheking"]sorry it's different.U can cuss at me all u want i don't report people, but KZ is different from LODR.So please come up with another movie or something.FrozenLiquid

It's Lord of THE Rings. Not Lord of Da Rings or however the kids say it these days.

So you want to know of a story that's got people colonizing another planet, then coming back full of hatred and revenge?

Go read all those amateur fanfics on the internet. If you can't be bothered reading that, then I can't be bothered with you.

http://www.cthreepo.com/cliche/

Here's all the Sci Fi cliches that have been used so often. I'm sure it has something about civilizations colonizing another planet and coming back for revenge or something.

In any case, I've seen the concept used, and just because you can't see it in LoTR, doesn't mean others can't as well. You're the only one arguing this point.

Hope you want to do a bit of reading.

Have fun.

LMAO if u think i will read through all that.

Exactly what I was thinking.

Ignorance is bliss.

Don't worry, in your little world, Killzone is highly original.

So wait now, FPS have been doing the "Shoot an Enemy and something drops off" routine for years now.

But when Halo 3 does it ... AWESOME DETAILS GOTY. :|

Now this is stepping into complete fangoggles territory.

FrozenLiquid

Uh.... when did I say that?

It's more like "Yes, another great feature for Halo 3."

Man, it's like if Halo has a brand new feature within its franchise, it shouldn't be welcomed.

Not specifically you, but its warranted this much attention? Its not exactly a new feature anyway as its jsut the same as a Weapon or grenades falling off someone ;)

Halo 3 looks great and the grunts...are demons or something.DuDisNow
no, the grunts call the master chief a demon... they are just aliens from a planet whos atmosphere is made of methane.

Dude, i already posted the Playstation Forums where killzone fans say the game is just world war 2 in space. What more do you want?

EDIT: I like the story by the way, and i'm fairly sure nobody here is bashing it; it's just not new and fresh like you think it is.

Yeah, what smokey said.

Vandal was trying to argue Halo was cliche, and he was losing pretty badly.

Read this.

It's a Q&A session with Guerilla; in which a fan points out that the storyline seems an awful lot like World War 2, with Helghast instead of Nazis. The response is that the game is indeed inspired by that, and takes key battles from ww1, 2 and vietnamn and implements them into their own universe.

The fact that the Nazis come from another planet, rather than germany, is irrelevant.

The response from who??Did motherh say that?They are on a different planet and has been mutated.completly different things.

You know, boys who read -- achieve. That banner was posted across a building in one of my schools. We all laughed at it when we were young.

Looking back now, I can see what they mean.

For all you know, I could make up a random movie or book that was exactly like Killzone, but you wouldn't know the difference, because you don't read.

But look, everyone's against you in this department, so there's no point in continuing.

TC, interesting find. Them grunts are ugly mothers. I no longer feel bad about killin' the poor saps :D.

Meu2k7

You might wish to keep your Halo-hatin' fanboy side to you, pal. You obviously have no place in this conversation, since you frankly have no idea of what you're talking about. Paraphrasing from pulp fiction... you're not in the same ballpark, league, or even sport.

It's not a droppable item. Grunts live in a methane-filled atmosphere, and need that gas to live. So, they always have a breather (imagine a scuba tank) when in other atmospheres. The grunt in question does not have the breather, which is in the ground. The whole thread is speculation regarding why is a living grunt without the breather. Can you somehow take it off without otherwise harming the grunt, like with a well placed shot? What effect will it have? Will it die a painful, slow death? Morale in enemies, especially grunts, has been modelled rather nicely since Halo 1 (bet you didn't know this!), so the TC is basically speculating how will this affect morale.

jujutheking

I gave you a link to the Killzone thread on the official playstation forums where fans discuss how the game is world war 2 in space. What more do you want? Just read the link.

Heck, i'll do it for you:

World war 2: Germany felt somewhat screwed over after the signing of the Treaty of Versailles which basically crippled them as a nation in Europe. Germany was put down and pretty much made into an outcast as a nation. This was unfair, and after many years of poverty and depression caused by this Treaty, Germany grew resentful of the way the nation had been treated as a whole. Step in Hitler who shoves cash into arms production, and there you have it. War breaks out as the nation seeks to rebuild what it once was.

Killzone is pretty much identical to that concept, only the invaders are coming from another planet rather than another country. It is, as they said, world war 2 in space.

There's nothing wrong with that. So dont be so defensive. Its still a good story.

Who's the Prime Minister of Australia?

Where's Madagascar?

How many people live in the U.S (That's a good one against Americans).

I dare you to tell me those without even looking at stuff on the internet.

You're completely missing the point time and time again. That's one minor difference. Are you going to come back and say "LOL BUT THE HELGHAST WEAR DIFFERENT HELMETS!!!!"

The point is that the two occurances are very, very, very similar. Undeniably so.

Seriously, that abrupt stop completely ruined the already so so film.

[QUOTE="smokeydabear076"]This question is directed towards you and anyone else who wants to answer it, where in the world is Mount Airy(there are a few choices, but where is the one I am talking about)?wolverine4262

The point of it is people aren't well versed in general knowledge anymore.

So much so that American kids don't even know how many people live in the U.S out of the top of their head.

Why? I'm not sure. But they don't like to read, or watch the news etc.

Im in the 11th grade and I know for a fact that there are 300 million people live in the US.... it was a pretty big deal not too long ago. I know where Madagascar is from playing Risk 2 on my laptop... I watch CNN quite often, btw...

I watch FOX.:P

Yeah, not a lot kid read anymore. Or that is what I assume. I have another question. What is the GDP per capita for Australia in 2006?

Was never interested in economics, never will be.

I'm more of a creative person, but with movies and production costs and logistics etc.... I have to learn it all now :(

What kind of question is that? A better one would be what does GDP stand for (gross domestic profit)? Such trivial questions shouldnt be expected to be known by anyone especially anyone outside of australia...

I watch all of them.I also do reseach on most of there stories.For example, the WWE case,The micheal moore siko thing.The media wants u think they are lying about certain things.They brought on moore on CNN, but first they ran a short clip of why is movie is fails and made i=him look stupid on TV because he couldn't get his facts.He was already on the show and the next day he posted the facts his website and CNN never posted them.They try so hard to make people look stupid.

Yeah I watch all of them too, but mainly Fox. I really don't like how they are handling the Chris Benoit case. It was funny when Kevin Nash was on Hanity and Colmes with the facts and they cut him off because it was not what they wanted to hear or at least that is how I saw it go down.
