[QUOTE="CaseyWegner"][QUOTE="XturnalS"]The hype is killing me and I'm glad to see that andre isn't the one reviewing it. Man was he biased. But I think that this is without a doubt a 9. I think the difference between the 9 and 9.5 will be the online MP with actual people.
If it works flawlessly then it'll get the 9.5 if not then just a 9. Either way its absolutely awesome that GG delivered with this one. Man I can't wait till thursday. And lems have been killzowned so hard, only the most hardcore of fanboys are still in denial.

it's never safe to say something like that until after it's reviewed.
Well for official SW game ownage then yes we'll have to wait and see but all the haters have already been shut up. They hated on it and said it would flop across the board.
"Its the sequel to a flop, loolol 6.9, greyzone 2, flopzone 2, pre-rendered", and all this other BS spouted by the fanboys but lems especially said it would fail.
Fact is that not only is Killzone 2 not a flop or bad game but its an awesome game and already carving itself to be one of the best FPS on the market.
That's why I hardly come here anymore. I've grown tired of the rules. I'm only here for KZ2 hype really. Just like Mass Effect. It is great AAA quality game that scored 8.5. Limiting ourselves to Gamespot's review is childish really. No other forum/site does that but GS.Limiting ourselves to Gamespot's review is childish really.

Perfect Dark Laptop Gun Sentries!!!! :DII_Seraphim_II
Oh yeah I forgot about that. I like throwing those on the ceiling and stuff. I'm wondering if you can do the same on Killzone 2, but so far it seems like you can only put them on the flat surface.

It can be fun tho, I mean even when games I wanted to succeed end up failing (Lair and Haze) it can be fun. Same for the flip side like the ME 8.5 or the Godly MGS4 10 AAAAE ownage to end all ownage. It gives us some structure as oppose to people just pulling whatever sources to fit their argument at that time.
[QUOTE="anshul89"][QUOTE="TREAL_Since"]I would like to at least know why. Are your tastes that much different for a shooting game than my own? What requirements does a shooter have to meet in order not to be boring?TREAL_SinceOmg finally there's someone on sw who agrees that opinions should be backed up with certain facts. In the Halo Wars thread people kept saying that it looks solid and fun without giving any reasons
I've never really been that hyped for Killzone 2, but for the past week I haven't been thinking about any other game. I really, really wanna play it, and I can't wait for the demo on Thursday.
I'm glad the game is getting such good scores, but I still have a feeling it'll get an 8.5 here.
[QUOTE="ewrewrwerewrwre"][QUOTE="TREAL_Since"] So I'm guessing Unreal 2 ripped off Team Fortress Classic :?. http://www.firingsquad.com/games/tfc/images/sentlvl1.jpgTREAL_Since
team fortress classic is a remake of original team fortress for quake 1996...the people who made the mod joined valve and ported team fortress to half life.
Team fortress/unreal 2 ripped off aliens 1986 deployable auto turret.
my point is killzone2 nothing special...unreal 2's multiplayer is alot better...overall best class best gameplay mode.
But you killed your own point of comparing U2 to KZ2 by saying that they both ripped off Aliens (movies don't even count). So what did U2 do that was revolutionary? I'm just wondering. I never got the chance to play U2: The Awakening. Or are you referring to Unreal Championship 2003? I love the Unreal games as well, but your Unreal campaign is getting out of hand. P.S. Team Fortress is the best class MP ever ;).Im talking about the expanded multiplayer xmp unreal 2 the awakening
it's overall best class based fps out there...you have jump jets that let you slow down ur falling speed helps you gain distance on dodge jumps also ...or turbos on vehicles first in fps if i remember correctly.
landmine jump.... forcefield fences you can set up and use as cover or block off doorways.

see i have unreal 2 xmp and team fortress installed now...xmp turned tf idea into something better.
If Kevin Van-shooter-lord reviews it all will be well :D. Signs point to him.I've never really been that hyped for Killzone 2, but for the past week I haven't been thinking about any other game. I really, really wanna play it, and I can't wait for the demo on Thursday.

I see. Sounds fun and I really want to try it out sometime, but not revolutionary. Same with KZ2 really. It seems that you just prefer U2 XMP. Unreal has a more bouncy action feel. KZ2 is more grounded with action that relies heavily on physics. I think both stand toe to toe with each other.So does anyone still buy into the hype that this game will rank up there with FPS greats like Doom, Quake, and Half-Life?pyromaniac223Not sure why people say that. It'll be a great shooter, that's what I think.

So does anyone still buy into the hype that this game will rank up there with FPS greats like Doom, Quake, and Half-Life?pyromaniac223It'll be a great game for sure and I hope it stands up to great games as Doom and HL. From what we have already seen, it has a unique feeling and great atmosphere, also for consoles FPS it is the first to accomplish as much as this. Now it's up to us to hype it since it worths all the hype.

You realize how inconsistent gaming journalism is right? Listen to what's being said instead of comparing digits.Well, since I was the last post in the old thread, I figure no one will ever read it so here's what I posted.
By the way Casey, the GameTrailers score is 9.2
Here are the scores that GT has given out to big shooters in the past.
Halo 3 - 9.8
BioShock - 9.5
The Orange Box - 9.3
COD4 - 9.4
Resistance 2 - 9.1
Gears of War - 9.1
Gears of War 2 - 9.5
Left 4 Dead - 8.6
That gives you an idea of where GT puts KZ2. By the way, GT's review lowered KZ2 down to a 93 average. That's lower than Halo 3. We've been Killzowned. :(
Too bad about the old thread though, it was on its way to surpassing the record of the MGS4 thread.

i preordered my copy last month from gamestop, so i'm as excited as the guy next to me. i'd be rolling around in bed couldn't sleep at night thinking about it. i'm spending way too much time on my laptop reading the reviews and watching the trailers. I should get a life :PI've never really been that hyped for Killzone 2, but for the past week I haven't been thinking about any other game. I really, really wanna play it, and I can't wait for the demo on Thursday.

The prettiness of KZ2, the great physics, the new feeling of a FPS game, the cover system in a FPS (I think it's the first one correct me if wrong) and also to achieve this amount of hype as a PS3 exclusive that only MGS4 reached and surpassed. I don't see any console FPS doing as much as KZ2 is doing specially when it comes to graphics. Gameplay gave us a great impression (if you saw the Beta you'll know what I meant). It is also a matter of opinion but as I said, I don't see any console FPS doing as much as KZ2 is doing.

Which FPS has a cover system?
[QUOTE="Chutebox"][QUOTE="McdonaIdsGuy"] All that has been done to death already this gen and last gen,is not the first to accomplish anything.McdonaIdsGuyWhich FPS has a cover system?
P.S. GRAW 2 isn't a FPS :?.
I mean cover system in FPS also, but didn't type it properly. Either way I didn't know as I've just got into FPS games recently and don't have a decent rig.Chutebox
I know, but I meant third person cover (ala RB6V) and first person cover (what you see in KZ2).;)
I think KZ2 is the first FPS to do it like this. Lean & peek is different

At least someone got my point, thanks :)[QUOTE="Chutebox"][QUOTE="McdonaIdsGuy"] All that has been done to death already this gen and last gen,is not the first to accomplish anything.sxs_alexWhich FPS has a cover system? oh no you di' int . dude, you're asking the wrong guy. i've seen him around on his high horse before. this is like a cow asking a mad cow disease (lemming) to suggest a good FPS. but let me tell you what killzone II has complished though ============== > ownage . it brought a lot of new things to the table such as adding weights to the players and also game mode rotations during online matches to keep the game flowing without the wait. Also you can invite or join different squads (alpha, bravo, charlie, and delta) prior to an online match to easily track your close mates on the radar. No other FPS has done this. There's more to it but i dont wanna spoil the awesomeness of this game. the graphics and gameplay are all there. just gotta wait until that day comes and find out yourself.
Weight to your character is something new? Squads are new? You clearly have no clue what you are talking about.
"There's more to it but i dont wanna spoil the awesomeness of this game"
Yea no there isn't, you just can't think of anything else to say.
This is something I do not understand: why are there reviews for Killzone 2 even though the game will not be released until the 27th? It is too early?ezikiellIt's because the game is finished. Has been finished ever since the end of Dec. I think Sony just pushed back the release date because of Resistance 2.
i am happy seeing KZ2 is being well received by the media with mostly great scores...goes to confirm my original thoughts that GG had something special under their hands and they would deliver upon expectations... its too bad for hater i know since they got owned but its a good thing for gamers, specially those into FPS games and owning a PS3..
KZ2 didnt have to re-invent the whole FPS genre, we dont really need that and personally i dont think FPS games can really have drastic changes... KZ2 introduced a new cover-system which imo keeps the action more fluid since you are kept in a first person view all the time so its like you're actually in a battlefield... add to that the sharp/accurate shooting & gameplay + an action-packed sp campaign & a great multiplayer and there you go, you have an excellent FPS game in your hands..
