Killzone 2 is a boring fps. Halo 3 is far better.

Kz2 is a boring repetitive fps that jumped out of the generic save the world shooter category. Why do ppl keep saying this game is sooooo amazing. All it really has going for it is graphics. The awkward controls and character movement make the game feel frustrating if you pick it up after playing resistance 1,2 cod 4, waw , battlefield ect, ect or any other fps. Why do ps3 fanboys keep saying this game is the best fps on the market. Resistance 2, 1, cod 4 are far better with far better stories. Heck Halo3s opening cg cut has better story then all of kz2

I have no doubt in my mind that halo 3 is the better game between these too (and ive only seen my friend play online for 10 mins and the first 2 cut-scenes, and the gs vid review). Also please note i only have a ps3 and dont own a 360

i have never seen any fanboy post something like ""KZ2 is the best fps in the market""

either way,KZ2 was not as bad as you made it look

[QUOTE="Birdy09"]No, killzone 2 actually takes aiming skill, Halo 3 is a sprintless, recoilless slow moving noob fest with boring game modes.ogvampire

noob fest? guess you never played any Ranked games

I'll take KZ2 over Halo anyday of the week, but KZ2 is not without its problems (lag, not enough weapons, burst firing from the hip being more useful than aiming down the sights).

As frustrating as KZ2 can get, imo Halo 3 isnt even in the same ballpark.

It's a good thing that you can create your own maps and game modes in Halo 3.

Oh, I also forgot to mention that Halo 3 has vehicles....at least more vehicles in single player than Killzone 2, which actually has none in multiplayer.

Which is why KZ2 is still being played by over a 150,000 people?

It is arguably the best FPS exclusive available on the PS3 in terms of multiplayer, the single player is mediocre at best.

THe MP is solid with enough depth to be called exceptional. It really is quite enjoyable, although rather easy at times.

why is your PSN card-sig-thing a helghast? :lol:

If I was you I wouldn't want to go that route. Halo has been out for ages and still has more players online that some new releases combined and that is a fact. Not just my opinion

nope. its this simple, but yet it goes over your head

if its a 'noob' fest, then anybody can win.... yet the elite players consistently win. so there goes your theory...

go and play a ranked game, cause it sure doesnt seem like you have, and see how fast you get killed by an elite player

wait... have you even played Halo 3?

I would be heavily inclined to disagree.

Multiplayer GOTY, suck it up.

Seriously though, it's actually a pretty underrated game, despite all it's pre-release hype. I blame the lemming backlash to the hype, they succeeded in downplaying easily the best FPS of the year.

the simple existence of Elite players shows that it does in fact take skill....

-second, can you please define me what 'real depth' means in an FPS? i would like to know what you mean by that.

So by your logic every game is noob friendly. Listen regardless of what you say right now Halo will still be one of the top played games. Mind you this game came out years b/f KZ2 but still is the most sought out game available. More so then KZ2 will ever be. No one will remeber KZ2 (except you) a few years from now. I promise you though that Halo will still be going strong.

Official Killzone story:

Oppressed humans leave Vekta in search of sanctuary, find Helghan. Helghan's hostile environment changes them into the Helghast they are. Helghan seek revenge on the humans and attack Vekta. The ISA behind Templar with the help of Rico, Luger, and Hakha save Vekta, ISA retaliates and invades Helghan, thinking that the Helghast will be unable to defend the attack. Little did they know, the Helghast were ready, and have electric-type superweapons that are powered by a mineral found only on Helghan. The ISA with Sev, Rico, Garza, Natko, and a self-less sacrifice from Templar defeat Radec, and then...we have yet to see.

Yeah, not just "save the world" is it?

BlackTragedy

still fits into the generic war for salvation category.

I love it when people are proven wrong, and are forced to grasp at straws, lol.

Seriously, name ONE game that is similar to the Killzone summery (which is only a SUMMERY of the overall story). I seriously want to hear what the TC comes up with.

As much as i hate this game:

Yeah, no doubt it's more popular, but IMO it's not better than KZ2. KZ2 did actually try a few different things and attempted to move the genre forwards some - and they really got it right with the MP. CoD, as usual, just treads water and sells like hot cakes.

EDIT - In fact thinking about it, I preferred CoD4's MP, it went backwards if anything due to some stupid design choices by IW.

[QUOTE="Heroldp813"]

[QUOTE="Birdy09"] Its going over your head, there will always be pleanty of "elite" players in any game... doesnt mean the game isnt noob friendly to the point where its slow and lacking any real depth. link me an elite players profile, I would like to see if the pattern i have in my head is correct, I dont mind if hes MLG or anything, just something to go by.Birdy09

Yea, MW2 was a big step backwards in MP imo, thats why i still choose to play COD4 over it

[QUOTE="aaronmullan"]

[QUOTE="BlackTragedy"]

what annoys me are the controls and character movement not that it doesn't fit in some arcade-y stereotype. Ive never been good a run and gunning. Always get killed so i found kz2s cover system interesting. But that doesnt help the story or character movement

BlackTragedy

no i said i was bad at simple run and gunning.

TC your full of crap. Killzone 2 is not a run and gun game. Much of the time your hiding behind cover and shooting blind fire.

You also said you liked COD 4, Resistance 1 & 2. they have a more run and gun aspect to them than Killzone 2.

Best Competitive Multiplayer Game: Killzone 2

When you first dive into Killzone 2's competitive warzone, you don't have much in the way of options. Limited weapons, ammo, and grenades make you feel like a new recruit, and the battlefield can be a deadly place. Gloomy lighting, thick smoke, and harsh industrial environments create an oppressive atmosphere, and the sound of battle often grows to a cacophony that few other shooters can match. This intensity is further heightened by Killzone 2's innovative match structure. You don't choose Team Deathmatch, Capture the Flag, or Assault and Defend before going to war (though you can, if you want). Instead, each match seamlessly transitions between game types, creating an ever-shifting battlefield that demands awareness, adaptability, and aggressiveness.

Embrace these virtues, and you are rewarded. As you kill enemies and complete objectives, you advance in rank and unlock new weapons and new badges. These badges function like classes, giving you strategically powerful skills, such as the ability to revive teammates, to place turrets, or to disguise yourself as an enemy. You can also earn ribbons and medals for commendable battlefield actions. This feat-based stream of rewards bestows valuable bonuses, the most powerful of which actually improve the potency of your badges by granting you another ability. You can then earn the power to mix and match these abilities and create custom classes that will make you more unpredictable and more deadly. The two reward systems make you feel like you are constantly achieving something on the battlefield, and together, they offer a uniquely engaging array of powerful combinations.

With these strategic abilities constantly in play, there is a lot more happening on the battlefield than just soldiers shooting each other. Skirmishes can play out in virtually any part of Killzone's superbly designed multiplayer maps, each of which can accommodate up to 32 players at a time. The sheer scope of these conflicts, the strategic clash of different abilities, the dynamic shifting of battlefield objectives, and the flat-out satisfying movement and shooting mechanics make Killzone 2 the best competitive multiplayer game of 2009.

And there we have it. God has spoken and I agree.
