They said the single player was "mediocre".:(

Can't help but feel a little disappointed about that.

i have just saw the killzone 2 first impresions (the feature from gamespot) and i think that gamespot likes the game and it will give it 9.5

what do you think?

At the end of the review, he said that it improves if you treat as the developers intended it....as a series of battles in a warzone in order to try and win a war. The constant sense of chaos and conflict in a war torn hell is why I think most will love the campaign. No, it may not be a deep story driven by love interest, ect, lol. However, it certainly looks to throw you in the middle of a hectic, hellish warzone, filled with intense encounter after intense encounter in an immersive, oppressive, but breathtaking atmosphere and environment. That is all I can ask for, and most other reviews seem to think it achieves those goals, despite not being more than 10 hours long.

Halo 2 for example.

fps games like KZ2 dont need an amazing story, though it helps getting you more involved during the sp campaign... however as long as its well paced & action packed i am sure i'll enjoy every moment of Kz2's sp campaign... then i'll immerse myself in its mp :)

Halo 2 for example.

Uptown

If this is like Halo 2 or Resistance 2, I'm going to throw my hands down and cry like a baby.

So what kind of class-combinations do you want to make in the MP? I'd like the Tactician's spawn generating ability with the Scout's onscreen enemy tagging feature.Mordred19

First customizable class I will probably work on building is a Scout with Saboteur attributes. In addition to the cloaking ability of the scout, I will be able to disguise myself as a player on the opposing team as well.

I don't think you can do that, as those are both the primary badges for those classes. I think that if you choose the Scout primary badge, you basically ARE the Scout, with that character model, and if you choose the sabateur primary badge, you are the sabatuer with that particular character model. I believe it is the secondary badges that can be mixed only. Not 100% sure though.

Ahh, thanks for the clarification. Darn it.:evil: I guess I will have to look over all of the available options and make up my mind from there. Definitely starting with a scout though.

I actually liked the ending gameplay. I won't spoil it, but I wasn't expecting it. It was just the story and actual ending of both games that ruined 'em for me.

All of them look simply astounding. Perfect settings for some epic battles. Also digging the music as well, kind of gives off a sort of Stars Wars action sequence vibe.

You are 100% correct.

You can only do a tagging saboteur or cloaking with C4. Spawn with tagging works tough, since spawn is the tactian primary badge and the tagging is the sniper secondary badge.

It'll be Van Ord. He said in his blog that he brought Andre kind of like a ying to his yang, while him and the other guy are enamored to the game, Andre has a more "earthly aproach".

So was the review embargo lifted yesterday? If so, any new reviews?

Also, will GS's review be out soon?

I just watched the hands on that GS did with KZ2 and for them to wait for the game to go live to chk out the servers that the game actually runs on I beleive is a attempt for them to find something wrong with it. And nothing more. Why didn't they do that with Gears 2? Heck if they would have Gears 2 wouldn't have gotten the score it got cause everyone knows that its MP was basically broken. So I think its a good idea, but at the same time they haven't done this with other games.

And that other guy in the video of the handson (not Chris) just seems hes trying to find every little thing wrong with it. You know people say the game doesn't do anything new but yet complain that you don't run around like Halo or cod lol, which means your movement in KZ2 is NEWWW lol. And he also complains that if you put your nose to something that the almighty textures aren't so great lol. I mean come on man, with everything that KZ2 is throwing at ya, you've got to complain about some minute issues, especially putting your nose to something to find something wrong with the graphics lol.

I'm not for sure how the review is going to go, chris and the heavier dude seems to like it pretty much, while that xbot lol is shooting for the stars in finding something wrong with it and he seems to be the one playing the SP aspect of the game. So as of right now my fingers are crossed lol. Just thought I should rant on about the hands on video GS has got up about their first impressions.

I am guessing they don't want to make the same mistake twice.

Add another great review to the pot. Hexus gives it a 9.5/10

"Killzone 2 is a significant game for Playstation 3. It has set a new standard for the first person shooter genre that will be hard to imitate. Part of Killzone's 2 draw is undoubtedly its vivid graphics and outstanding visual effects, but level design, weapon handling, an accessible and smooth control system and great AI, all play an equally significant part in making it such a memorable experience."

Game Planet Review 9.0

"We can safely recommened this as not only one of the best shooters for the Playstation 3, but one of the best made for any platform."

Bold claim, but sounding great. :D

Lol another overrated shooter. *Yawns*

Wake me up when it scores lower than 9 or a 10 so I can see the hilarity ensue. :D
