32 player online, TF2 like multiplayer, Epic single player gameplay...it looks like Guerilla Games is going all out.

I hope it's as good as they say. I'm still putting my focus on Resistance, though.

Mmmmm looks tasty, looks like it might end up being a hybrid of Cod4 and TF2

That would be sweet

Single player still doesnt make my jaw drop like the Chimera Leviathan did

GOD......ZILLA!?

The game is going to be killer, and that is why it is taking so long for them to release it. As they are leaving nothing to chance because they know there is alot riding on this game. It will deliver because they know it has to. SCE are not morons, and that is why they are giving Guerrilla all the time and support they need.

Similar? Kilzone 2 is more consistant (not going to have the glitches), better AI, complete multiplayer, and and engaging story. Killzone 1 was marred with glitches, the online was pretty much just team death match.

I've got nothing against the game, as I know very little about it, but I saw this topic and felt the need to say that the video game market is over-saturated with FPS games. Really, even if I love the genre there's only so many I can buy without getting bored of them

How do you know?

You temd to not see glitches in closed demos (they show you what they want you to see), cod3 had ****based mp, we don't really know about the story.

I'm not saying Killzone 2 can't be good, but just remember the previews for Killzone 1. That being said, it's too linear to be considered awesome (look at halo for how single player design can be open in a fps but still being sort of traditional, meaning still a pure fps)

looks promising. if it sells a lot, i hope mlg will pick it up. kinda dissapointed that the halo 3 announcement might be pushed back at a later date........H3 is such a dissapointment for competitive gaming. ever since the halo ce lead designer left, halo has been going down the casual death march. im just hoping this next bungie project will have very skillful multiplayer.

That's why H2 and H3 don't feel the same! I love Halo:CE so much. Hopefully Bungie's next game will capture it's essence.

Just the one sock? With all the hype surrounding this game, you'd expect (not think) it to knock both socks off. Personally, I'd expect both socks firmly planted, but still, why the one sock?

This game has so much potential from what we have all seen it delivers graphically like any other fps, very close is Far Cry 2. All the recent previews from 1up, GS and IGN predicts this game will deliver and be great. Day one purchase for me Haters will be owned.

ce took so much skill. 1 guy can carry a whole team to victory.

h2 took skill and teamwork, very good players need a good team to shine. also bxr, doubleshots actually made hte game have more "clutch moments"

h3 takes very little skill, but a lot of teamwork. if strongside ( one of the more skilled h3 players ) were to be teamed up with a bunch of not so skilled players facing decent players, he wouldn't be able to carry them to victory.

to shorten this: h3 has a very small skill gap. your either good, decent, or bad.

The G4 vid if anyone is interested: http://www.n4g.com/News-170578.aspxthe_dark-knight

downgrade is confirmed.

the one thing that really upsets me is the fact that they took out the destructible environments we saw in the 'target renders'.. that they lied about saying they were 'in engine'. to me this looks like F.E.A.R. 1.5, mixed with gears and COD. the lighting is OK, but none of the footage showed dynamic lighting, just fixed god-rays like in half-life 2.

i dunno, my killzone 2 expectations just really dropped imo after watching that video.

um no.

far cry 2 is more interactive, AI seemed better, you can destroy / manipulate pretty much everything in your environment.

kz2 looks like the same stuff we've been doing for years. point to point shooting without destruction or real challenge... he admittedly said the game is too easy now due to the friendly AI.. which usually implies the enemy AI isn't that great.

i'll wait until i play, but this is nothing like the stuff they showed us last year.

If you had a PS3, you could watch the 1080 gameplay trailer they have on PSN now. then you could stop lying to yourself about KZ2 not being impressive.

You would have to have had expectations in the first place in order for them to be lowered ;)

I have to agree somewhat. Resistance in November then Killzone in Feb. Sony is releasing these titles too close together. There's also Socom in Oct. which is 3rd person but still a shooter none the less.

You obviously didn't read the article if you think it's being hyped primarily for graphics. And if you don't think the graphics are going contribute immensely to the gameplay, then you have problems with observation.

So what? They said the same about Killzone 1. Gamerman12362

Killzone 1 was hyped because it was an exclusive FPS for ps2, which was very rare. Not much of the game was shown and it ended up being an ok game ruined by glitches.

Killzone 2 is really proving that it is worthy of the hype. I haven't read any previews that have said the game is buggy. Also, Killzone 1's MP was meh, but this looks ****ing awesome!

agreed, the whole FF13 thing is showing the desperation of lemmings wanting sony exclusives..come to think of it, microsofts E3 was garbage and FF13 was the only highlight. I own a 360 and ps3 but man the fanboy lemmings can make me want to hide since they embarrass the rest of us 360 owners.

Halo is linear, for the most part. That was a bad example, try again.

To be honest, I wasn't all that impressed with anything besides the graphics at first. But it looks like it's going to turn out fantastic. Seems like Sony and Guerilla are really going all out on this one. They even mentioned a Bungie.net style website for tracking kills/ranks/clans and stuff of that nature. I can't wait.

or i could watch it on my dual 1080p monitors, same stuff buddy. actually a better picture tbh.

it's a definite downgrade, i don't care what anyone says. i don't need confirmation or affirmation for something i can see and judge myself.

thanks though ;)

and um, thanks for being captain obvious. i had high expectations based on the footage we saw last year, but the game is nowhere close to the target renders yet. if you think it is then you're the one being a bit delusional.

Dude I just watched the HD trailer on PS3. This game looks way better then the crap videos you see online.

i'm watching it in HD on my computer, which i can assure you looks better than what you'd see on a normal HDTV... and visually it's not close to gears 2 (not that im a fan of gears) and it's way short of the target renders they showed off last year.

to each their own though i guess. hopefully someone will buy it and like it, god knows they've been pouring enough cash into it. i just think it's gonna flop personally.
