In all my years of playing video games, which for me happens to be over 24 years, I have seen a lot of good games, a lot of bad games, and only a hand full of games that are great. Killzone 2 just happens to be one of those games that make up my handful of games. It ranks alongside with Final Fantasy 7, Metal Gear Solid, Super Mario Brothers, and Zelda. All of these games stir up some kind of emotional connection, for Killzone 2 it just happens to be an extreme sense of urgency (Gears and Gears2 came close). From the moment you touch down the game kicks you in the pants right away stringing together a constant bombardment of attacks. The minute you think your going to get to run through a door, the Helghan are there to stop you dead in your tracks. This packed with the score playing in the background and your squadmates yelling "sev get to cover" can really get your heartrate up.

The visuals in Killzone 2 have almost a dirty feeling to them. You can stare in to the screen and find the jaggies if you want to and say hey the graphics are not that good or you can look at the whole picture. Dynamic lighting, combined with character models that offer realistic facial impressions and a body language that acts true to life.

The Multiplayer is unlike anything ever experienced. The fact that matches are strung together and they give you new objectives the minute your done one is totally new. Now some might say the experience system has been done and yes it has. Call of Duty 4 and Call of Duty WAW do this very well, but what they dont do is give you character classes with and experience system on huge multiplayer maps that make you feel as if they laid out every object on the screen with such careful planing and placement.

Killzone 2 is I think is a new stage in fps games. It ups the level on almost everything that it does. Games today need to stand out and dare to be great. Killzone 2 does this in almost everyway and definetly goes on my handful of great games list.
