Resistance was pretty tight, God of War 1 and 2 hellz yeah, but what does Killzone 2 really have going for it?I liked the animations, though somewhat sluggish, in KZ1 but the gameplay was repetive and boring IMO. Please elaborate on any opinions you might have of this sequel.

Coz graphics and positive previews = AAA,even though the graphics aren't especial anymore and the original KZ got lot of positive previews and it ended up floping.

I agree the game was above average, especially for a PS2 fps. I just hope the reload animations are a little quicker, seeing as how the action will be faster paced this time.

I enjoyed the first one. Also it seems to be a tight shooter from footage and some hands on articals. Again MP is what gives a shooter legs and KZ2 MP seems to be realy good. With the class system. The first KZ MP was meh. It just seemed quickly put together.

I'm not crazy about KZ in the least, but to be fair.... the dev team is much larger and had a much larger budget than its predecessor.... I'm not saying KZ2 will be great, but I don't think we can judge it based on KZ1.

Apparently cows didn't learn from Uncharted that hyping a game simply because it has nice graphics isn't a very good idea...

You should of said Lair, as reviews point to Uncharted being a good game but not AAA material.

KZ1 flopped because of the restricted hardware(Ps2), which has been stated many times. Funny how you forgot to mention the PSP killzone which was awesome, and judging by the press, KZ2 will be awesome.

Well it got a 88 on metacritic and 89.8 on gamerankings. Which puts it at almost AAA material in real world terms. Even if it was 90+, people will be bickering because this gamespot.

Because it has good graphics and it's a PS3 exclusive. If one of those was changed, this game would have zero hype.

so, K2 will be an automatic flop, because the first game got a low score?

never mind the dev changes, more money, sony studio's, better hardware. learning from mistakes....Ok.

had no idea, DMC 3/4 were flops, because the 2nd one scored bad, and GTA 4 is a flop, because the first few sucked.

Thanks for clearing that up.

Resistance was pretty tight, God of War 1 and 2 hellz yeah, but what does Killzone 2 really have going for it?I liked the animations, though somewhat sluggish, in KZ1 but the gameplay was repetive and boring IMO. Please elaborate on any opinions you might have of this sequel.

BudsMcGreen

Well KZ2 is going to be alot different from its previous parts.Because in simple words,they have actually worked alot on this game and hopefully (saying this from the previews,gameplay footages,media info and alot other info) will score good.

Desperate fanboys, people who play games for graphics and the one guy who named himself aftr killzone

Killzone is not a mark of quality. Guerilla games are not good developers

I'm pretty sure the users(cows) of system wars hyped Killzone to be the Halo Killer. I admit, I wasn't here when it happened. When I was a newbie, I heard it talked about alot. I doubt they were making it up.

the media started it and then fanboys went along with this 'parade'.

the devs of the game never said its a halo killer.

goes to show how media can destroy something/someone so easily.

many ppl who played it will agree with me that the original killzone was a decent game. it had its flaws but was decent none the less
