Killzone 2 or Modern Warfare 2?

Which is better and why?

Modern Warfare 2.

I loved Killzone, it's great, but MW2 will probably suit you better, more people playing online, "smooth" controls.

Killzone 2 has heavier controls, takes a lot to get used to.

I just rented MW2 and the first 2 hours are better than the entirety of KZ2.

I think the answer is too obvious

MW is just a little more engaging for me. I never cared about why I was fighting in KZ2. MW grabs me, I guess it's a little familiarity.cainetao11

You really have to play Killzone to fall in love with Killzone 2. Familiarity is a big part of it.

This thread is great, but I will play along.:P

"MW2 pwns KZ2! Yeah, I said it! I just bought the game, and COD6:MW2 looks better than any other console game ever created! The Console Graphics King is now a Multiplat! Yeah! Wheeeeee!"

That a good SW response?

So you have played the two?Okay,may I ask,which one is more intense in it's action?I want a game with lots of guys on-screen at once and lots of action!!May I add also,I'm not into online gaming that much.

I've played the first 5 or 6 missions of MW2, and I have to say I'm bored. Just seems like more of the same, and all that is is a dumb heavily scripted action game. It's like a Michael Bay film. Loud, bright, pretty and macho, but ultimately unengaging and stupid.

Haven't played KZ2.

EDIT : Thought the snowmobile section was ****ing awesome though.

I have yet to play Modern Warfare 2 and I have not seen all that much footage from it, but if the first game is any indication then I would say MW2 is much better than Killzone 2.

I did not like that game...

I feel bad for KZ2...its going to get snubbed in all the GOTY awards because it came out so early in the year...Same goes for other games that came out early in the year. Also, MW2 being multiplat, and thus more popular, is certainly going to help its GOTY causes.

I have not played MW2 so I can't comment on which is better. But I will say KZ2 > CoD4.

definitely mw2

even tho i really enjoyed kz2 the classing and spawning kinda annoyed me, almost everybody spawns in the same place and peolple are just waiting outside the door with rpg's

Didn't Killzone 2 get a patch to be more Modern Warfare-like?

yeah, because comparing 2 AAA games MUST be insane!!!!!!

BACK OFF LEM, I got fanboy spray, and I'm not afraid to use it!!!!!!!!!

I haven't actually bought MW2 yet (I'll probably buy it this weekend), but judging from Call of Duty 4 MW1 (which I adore), I like Modern Warfare alot better. Killzone 2 is a great FPS in its own right, but it just doesn't have the thrills and setpieces that COD does. You can tell that Guerilla just doesn't have as many ideas as Infinity Ward as far as level design is concerned.

thats another thing i forgot about alot of people are gonna be leaving KZ2 MP and going to MW2 so who knows how empty KZ2 will be in a couple weeks

I'm one of the biggest MW2, IW, and Activision bashers here. I rented it because I won't support Acitvision. My honest and experienced opinion is truth.

MW2 is a far superior shooter with better setpieces.

From a strict gameplay point of view, KZ2 destroys MW2. It also has bigger and better firefights. But MW2 has the perks and attachments so it is more personal for the player since they can fully customize their class. Graphically, KZ2 is better than MW2 (MW2 is rendered at 600p). It's a moot point though, as both games aren't that great anyway.

I bet it is a flashy rehash. That doesn't mean Killzone 2 is automatically better. IMO, any rehash of COD will be better than KZ2 simply because the foundation is stronger. The thing that holds Killzone 2 back from COD status is the level design. It's just not nearly as varied, not nearly as exciting and not nearly as dynamic. If not for the level design, the games would probably be on closer footing. Don't me wrong though. Killzone 2 doesn't have bad level design. It just doesn't strive to do much more than be good and functional, whereas COD aims to load up levels with thrilling setpieces.

Better is subjective so I won't argue with you. But in no way shape or form does Killzone 2 have bigger firefights. They are much more contained than COD's.

I heard that it is just a flashy rehash. From the looks of Modern Warfare 2, I will have to go with Killzone 2. But I am still looking forward to renting MW2 though.MJ4040

Have to say I like KZ2 online a lot better.. MW2 is a huge campfest

How can you have bigger firefights in MW2 when the player cap is 18? While KZ2's player cap is 32?

You forgot the part where COD6 is da must realistic and teh most skill full game ever and it deserves a GOTY award for the next five years straight!

God am I sick of hearing about this game it's so overrated and hyped it's annoying, and I want to beat a puppy every time someone calls Call of Duty realistic. /rant.

Level design pretty much ends up producing environments though. It's not something you can seperate. The MP maps really didn't impress me any more than the campaign levels TBH. They maps might have worked well for MP in a technical/tactical way, but as for being exciting environments, they just didn't stun me. They just seem so lacking of detail and variation. I always get the feeling that Guerilla worked really hard on the gunplay, the enemy AI, all that good stuff, but then just kind of went at the game environments in a coldly mechanical kind of way. That's really my only beef with Killzone 2.

pretty much all of the buzz for mw2 on system wars has been annoying users like yourself constantly preaching the same goddamn argument of whynot to buy the game si i fail to understand how it's in any way "overrated"

I see where we misunderstood eachother. I was talking about the campaign while you're talking about the multiplayer.

this is kind of a one sided fight...

I don't think I'll ever serve in the Vectan-Helghast war.cainetao11

LOL yeah that's right.

What did make you think so?

From what I've seen of MW2 I have to say KZ2 by a mile

MW2 is going to win. Both great games, btw.
