Killzone 2 has been shown to some degree thanks to E3 2007 and the footage released thereafter. It's time for you to pick a side in the great debate and make a gut call on Killzone 2. No nambly-pambly backing out either, this is a gentlemen's agreement of the highest order: the cheeseburger bet.

The bet goes as such - pick a side, will Killzone 2 score on Gamespot AAA, or fail to score AAA? If you bet incorrectly, you must make a video of yourself eating a cheeseburger, and post it to your blog.

It's quite simple - do you belive that Killzone 2 will score a 9.0 or above? If you do, accept the challenge by placing one of these nifty dogtags in your signature, and/or posting here. I will add your name to the bet roster in my blog (click my tag in signature to view, or my username).



If you believe Killzone 2 will score below a 9.0 on Gamespot, place your bet by placing one of these dogtags in your signature and/or posting here. I will add your name to the bet roster.





FAQ

1. Do I have to eat a cheeseburger?

If you have dietary restrictions, such as being unable to eat cheese, or unable to eat meat, use the closest acceptable substitute. All are welcome to participate, simply find a burger-substitute such as a Boca burger and eat that instead.

2. Do I have to make the movie to participate?

This is a bet in spirit - you are simply making a call on Killzone 2 early - so if you are unable or uncomfortable making a film and placing it in your blog post, you make take a picture, or if you cannot do that, simply make a blog post stating the outcome of the bet.

3. Do I have to leave System Wars forever?

Nope! We're poking a bit of fun at that kind of silly bet, this is only for fun. There are no real world consequences for winning or losing, simply a bit of internet fun.

***note***

Please post your predictions for the GS score of Killzone 2 here, I cannot add you to the roster if you do not post. You do not have to be added to the roster if you do not wish.


This is the roster for the bet so far:

Don't worry about that - just go with your gut - do you think Killzone 2 will score AAA on Gamespot? And also - do you accept the cheeseburger bet?

Please stop hijacking the thread, place a bet on one side or the other, it does not matter where you get the burger from. You can get the burger from Wendy's if you want - they make a decent fast food burger.

The bet is cheeseburgers? Do you have the sheer *guts* to pick a side in such a dangerous bet? If so, tell me which side you're on.

I say KZ2 will get a 9.0, and I mean it still would get a 9.0 if GS was using the old score system. I say an exact 9, no "rounding up to 9" business.

Fine. I pledge to eat a cheeseburger if KZ2 scores AAA.

IN N OUT > ALL.

Of all things called "facts" on these forums, I believe that is the closest to it. (however, it is still an opinion)

That's fine, would you still like to place a bet on the score? I'll add you to the roster (in my blog) but there is absolutely no requirement to film yourself. We can take your word, this is a gentlemen's bet, your word that you ate a cheeseburger will suffice if filming is not possible / acceptable.

Char-Grill (in NC, only has 5 locations) is like In-N-Out if heaven decended upon the earth and granted the secret of true flavor. I'm serious - if you live within fifteen minutes of one you will never want to eat another burger ever again.

However, would you like to pick as side?

I highly recommend watching the Killzone 2 videos, reading whatever commentary you can get your hands on, and just pondering it. Do you think the graphics and sound will deliver? Do you think the gameplay will match the impressive presentation? In any case, it's an early bet - so just go with your gut feeling.

Mordred - the image is here http://i3.photobucket.com/albums/y78/novariusandrion/below2.jpg you should save it and repost it at imageshack or the like, however you may leech my image to test it out. Click "pref" then click the "Forums" tab and then click the insert / edit image icon. The paste that URL (or the URL you are hosting the image at) and hit enter. Finally, hit "apply changes".

Make sure to put the image *above* all the other text in your signature, as, in your case, your text might be too long, so the sig isn't getting to show up.


Jack_russel - I have already started posting the roster in my blog, I will add it to this post in about ten minutes, and keep it updated as best I can.

Yeah, there's really no reason not to bet, there's not much on the line. C'mon, have some fun, judging by what we've seen so far, do you think Killzone 2 will score a AAA on GS? It's premature, but I'm curious what people think. Don't take it too seriously.

Sorry about that, I forgot the "-" - I've fixed it in both rosters.

It's not exactly evenly divided yet, but I think there should be a nice divide on what people think about Killzone 2. Is it really AAA material? Does it deliver?

I hereby except the following bet!

And I hereby except this following bet as well...

That way no matter what, I win. And to be extra special I hereby change the first bet from below a 9.0, to below or equal to 9.0. That way if KZ2 scores 9.0, I eat two cheeseburgers!

Lol, pick a side please, you can eat two cheeseburgers right this very second if you want to - but the bet is on whether or not Killzone 2 will score AAA. Do you think Killzone 2 will score a AAA on GS? When you've decided, you can accept the bet.

Japan isn't known for good squad based FPS, this is like asking an american developer to do a good Japanese Roll Playing game. Japanese just don't get the FPS, and tothrow squads like R6 or Gears is just not in there vocabulary. Don't get me wrong they try, and produce some decent results, but it's like asking EA to make Final Fantasy. Killzone will dissapoint for anyone that expects it to be AAA.

Alrighty! I'll add you to the list... woo, yeah Killzone 2 is not a Japanese game to my knowledge. Sony's all over the place, they're not just developing stuff out of Japan.

What are you talking about? Guerilla, the developers of KZ, are European.

Well I might be eating a hamburger, did they develop the original?? Played PSP version it's not like the original I know but it didn't reach my GS level to warrent a purchase. I might have just self owned DOOOHHHH!

Guerilla made the PS2 game, the PSP game, and are making the PS3 game. Only this time, on PS3, they have major backup.:twisted: About a hundred employees more.

If the present day Guerilla development team was an army of guerilla soldiers, Sony would be the USSR giving them weapons and vehicles galore to aid their war effort.

Add me for a cheeseburger if it scores higher than 9.0. I would add it to my sig, but I don't have any room left.
