[QUOTE="Eyezonmii"]umm, nothing compared to killzone 2, with great reliable sites claiming its an amazing game, also thanks to the beta's with MANY saying its a great shooter all around..i've heard near to nothing about ninja blade, splinter cell, etc...NOTHING, just delays, some opinions and thoughts...nothing to the level or killzone 2, which pretty much looks guaranteed to be a killer title. Nice try tho. BioShockOwnz
Killzone Exceeds All Expectations at 2004 E3 Convention
12th May 2004 - Killzone recently appeared as one of the main attractions on the Sony stand at this year's E3 and received critical acclaim from journalists, developers, publishers and the general public alike. Guerrilla showed off three different sections from Killzone's single player levels and also unveiled the multi player, online deathmatch game mode.
On the very first morning of the show, ign editor Ivan Sulic approached the team to obtain code and to enter Killzone into the awards scheme. Over the course of the 3 day event, Killzone continued to wow the crowd with one of the busiest stands of the whole show.
Killzone eventually picked up the 'PlayStation 2 Best of Show' award and the 'Best Shooter' award. Killzone also achieved runner up status in the 'Best Sound' and 'Technical Excellence' catagories. Click on the links to read more from IGN's own site.
The jury comment on the PS2 Best of Show award: "It was a tough choice this year when selecting the PlayStation 2 game we were most impressed with. But after weighing all the possibilities and evaluating several different factors, we couldn't help but select Guerrilla Games' Killzone as the most impressive piece of software at the show. Having played through all three levels of the official E3 demo, we were floored by the visual and technical quality in Killzone and were even more impressed by how fun it truly turned out to be. If anything, it was a refreshing discovery too, as hype and anticipation are things that are rarely lived up to - and miraculously, Killzone did."
On the Best Shooter award: "The hype surrounding Killzone has been a long time in the making and we finally got to discover why for ourselves on the show floor. For starters, the presentation and sheer amount of activity is almost intimidating. Lending itself well to the Medal of Honor philosophy, Killzone is all about immersing the player with an assload of commotion. Unlike Medal of Honor or Call of Duty, however, Killzone looks to have a ruthless A.I. that makes you pay for your mistakes - with plenty of weaponry to get destructive with on both sides. In short, the game exudes entertainment and has us clamoring to give the final version a thorough playthrough later this year."
Killzone also made a splash in the main-stream E3 press reports and the game appeared in a number of quality papers and journals. These included USA Today, the Los Angeles Times and Newsweek.
