It is useless to resist killzone 2

Nice review.

In the 90% range is really good for a game to get, and when a game actually deserves it it awesome. Too many games get really high scores just because they are popular, not because they deserve it.

Of course. Any game getting scores in 90s range is a must-play experience--especially if you are even remotely a fan of the genre.

Killzone 2 has been one of my most anticipated games for quite some time, and now after all the high scores that it has received I am even more excited for the game. Only a couple more weeks left to go.

quick someone go get the spoilers so you can have revenge from gears 2 LMFAO.

on topic. glad to see killzone 2 is showing up to its hype. good thing i pre-orded. XD
-nai-

will be the fps standard. i am glad they brought back bots, because of the bots, you could warm up before going online.

You have been KILLZOWNED NEXT>

I have read so many threads on killzone now I cant see the woods from the trees. I own a PS3, XBOX360 and a Wii. All fantastic machines, but in all honesty my Wii only comes out when friends are around, and my PS3 is a blu ray player. I have played all the quality titles - MGS4, Resistance, Unchartered and LBP. Not a lot left really is there. Most multi platform games are technically better on xbox, better online, offer download content, or were out much earlier - Fallout, FEAR, Orange box, GTA IV, Bioshock, Oblivion COD etc

Also Xbox offers exclusives which like it or not PS3 fanboyz are not on your beloved machine - Fable, Halo, Gears Of War, Left For Dead, Dead Rising, Mass Effect, Project Gotham racing, Forza (hello Turismo wheres the car damage!!!), Project Gotham, Ninja Gaiden,Crackdown.

These are all quality enjoyable titles rates average 90 upwards.

The fact is I am really looking forward to Killzone, but am pleased the reviews are stating what I thought all along. It is a brilliant but ultimately FLAWED experience.

Argue if you want but what is the single most identifiable thing about iconic gaming franchises throughout gaming history? I will tell you what - the lead character!!!

Master Chief, Mario, Link, Snake, Samus, Marus Felix, Gordan Freeman - love em or hate them they are iconic gaming characters which sell the franchises by the bucketload and players look forward to their next game with the character.

Now will someone tell me what the hell is Killzones spin???? There isn't one, they have changed the character from the last game. There is NO defining character to speak of, just a beautiful shooter, which will be outdone in the coming months anyway.

The PS3 fanboyz on this website make me sick, crawl back to your little caves and bore someone else with your constant stream of inane dribble. Fact is you are all on here so much as you have NOTHING left to play on your beloved PS3s and instead choose to abuse xbox, and champion absolutely anything you can as long as it as a 'ps3 exclusive'

You think Sony give a toss about your brand loyalty??? haha its so sad you all worship at their altar like little rats following the pied piper!!! You are nothing but little consumer ants to them, and your blind loyalty is why they have totally disregarded you as customers and taken nearly 3 years to get the console to anywhere near where it should be technically, yet alone on a gaming front.

Absolutely pathetic, the lot of you..................... (sony fanboyz that is)

the days when if a game got 7 it was a must buy but in this gen it seems that every exclusive is getting atleast one 9

GIGGSY, tell me this. When the 360 has run its cycle ( I give it a year or 2 at most ) what are you going to do ? Sit around playing the ancient Gears 2, banging on about the good old days of Forza etc... or give up playing games until the next gen. MS are not in a position to release another console within two years. They have shot their load. Rushing out a machine to eager gamers desperate for the next gen of gaming. They scored good sales initially because people are impatient. The console war is a marathon, not a sprint. The PS3 sales are comparable to xbox 360 during the same timeframes. There are more good PS3 games out now than 360, imo. If I had to choose a console based on whats out now and in the future, there is no question, it would be PS3 all the way. 360 is now a cheap alternative for people who cant afford a PS3. Thats technology for you. You want the best, you have to pay for it. Sony has been in this game long enough to know what its doing. MS is relatively new. The PS3 is gathering momentum as far as games go, each one pushing the boundaries. KZ2 is graphically beyond anything 360 can achieve. FACT !! Uncharted 2 will be comparable. The 360 line up this year is somewhat weak, dont you think? Tell me 3 games you are looking forward to? Admit it, if not to us then to yourself, you will sneak off one day and buy a PS3. Dont worry, its not a dirty thought, just inevitable. Most xbox owners will do the same. Argue all you want, disagree all you want. I dont care. Im going to watch my blu ray collection and play on MGS4, Uncharted, Motorstorm 2, Gran Turismo to name but a few of my 16 game collection. No games? ha ha

Before you come back, yes I know you state that you own a PS3 but its not true is it, is it............ ? didnt think so

@Mgsfan

Look at the metacritic scores for all the memorable games:
GTA III
God Of War
Mgs1,2,3,4
Super Mario's
etc

They all hover around the mid 90's mark, we are not saying low 90's is bad because obviously its good, and we all know this game is a must by. But the the negatives of this game are silly:
'no co-op'- COD4 did not get accused of this yet scored higher from some bias sites
AI- Hmm the COD enemy's respawning is annoying as f*ck in Veteran, or what about the retarded Halo enemies, running around like fa-ggots or standing still while they take the bullets, in the Killzone 2 beta even the bots themselves were smart as fu*k
Samey Enemies- WTF they are probably one of the best looking enemies in a game that in itself should give it PLUS points rather than negatives.

Any site that gives Killzone 2 lower than 10 for graphics and gives GEOW a 10 for graphics shouldn't even be allowed the privilege to review Killzone 2 lol.

IMO Killzone 2 is so perfect in many ways they have nothing else to critic other than silly things like those explained above.

Still havnt added Jolt onlines 9.6 review which I find rather odd.

giggsy13=one who lies about owning a ps3 with fanboy rant

thoreau's psn=southpaw79

Sony really does need another mainline shooter franchise. They pretty much gave up after the PS3 generation, and I'm really surprised they haven't tried at another high-profile, singleplayer-centric shooter; even if it weren't Killzone or Resistance.

I miss Killzone while I can see why they still do Horizon has some really good things but I do think that Horizon is overrated imo.

Or how about studios focus on projects that they feel passionate about, and not be forced to make something they have little interest in. It shows in the final product.

It’s still got potential for the modern era. The DNA is all there. The install base is there. The interest is there. The time is now.

Killzone 2 and 3 were farkin brilliant and way better than halo

Too bad they've abandoned em smh, then theres sony barely even acknowledging what us fans want. Every time they sale a certain high amount it get like that with them smh

Because Killzone games are awesome, that's the reason.

New ip after 3'rd horizon please 🙏

Give it to Bungie. The Helghast are awesome enemies and Bungie could make something really cool

not enough interest to keep it alive

I’m beating a dead horse here… but Resisitance FOM gun lay out was so fun, multiplayer was one of my top favorite experiences. Insomniac nailed it and I would love a remaster and maybe a redo with Reisistance 2. They listens to players who were wanting a Halo killer and it kind of lost its character from the first.

Warhawk, if they had just remade the first one not Starhawk which offered nice things like the build and battle.. but Warhawk was the best arcade shooter I ever played. Back when you didn’t have battle passes and you actually had to get certain amount of kills or ribbons to unlock different paint skins on the Warhawks and armor for your player.. Look at the success of Helldivers 2, it’s a fun game and it reminds me of Warhawk in a way. I’ve been wanting a remake or sequel since the beginning of the ps4 gen.. it’s hurts to have hope nowadays. Even with the demise of the studios Sony has a steady fan base.

Killzone game after Killzone 2 play style would be nice

Motorstorm would be epic with the visual upgrade, maybe this game would be a harder sell with the genre being not as popular nowadays..

Resistance franchise, Motorstorm and Dirt 2 which was fun as heck. Add Dead Space 2 as well.

I quickly looked and only saw the words PS5 Remaster and a picture of Fall of Mans logo

Ahhhh shit, well maybe one day

Resistance 1-3 remastered with online

Kill zone 1-3 remastered with online

God of war PS3 games and PSP games collection

Infamous 1-2 with all dlc please we need this. It’s such an underrated franchise and so much potential. In this age of super hero media craze Sony should utilize infamous

White knight chronicles 1-2

Warhawk and starhawk

Motorstorm series

MGS4

Easy money would be to remake Resistance and Killzone series, rather than just a remaster. And PS5 desperately needs some couch co-op shooters so this would scratch that itch.

Infamous 1+2 and KZ 2+3

Deus Ex Human Revolution

GTA IV needs one.
Still stuck on PS3 and 360.

PS3 ended up been a beast of a console, slow out of the gate, picked up steam, smashed through the finish line. The 1st PS3 slim is still one of my favourite consoles. So solid, great games, by the time GTA5 and the last of us had come out it was a clear winner for me

Nice to see that they included Pupetteer in this list.

"PS3 may not have been the strongest generation"

Meanwhile...just looking at exclusives alone and not even third party titles

Uncharted was born
Demon's Souls was born
Metal Gear Solid 4
God of War 3
The Last of Us was born
Little Big Planet was born
Warhawk
Killzone 2 and 3
Infamous was born
Resistance was born
Motorstorm was born
Gran Turismo
Heavy Rain
Journey
Shadow of the Colossus returned paving the way for the remake in the PS4 generation
PS Plus was born

Sorry bud, but the PS3 generation was amazing and featured the greatest console comeback in history.

That said, I'd love it if Warhawk returned or Metal Gear Solid 4. It needs to not be shackled to the PS3 generation anymore. A Killzone 2 remake would be insane with modern graphics and that art direction.

I really miss this gen of gaming. It felt like the last truly "great" era for videogames before the modern approach really took hold.

The PS3 was such a glorious console. The UI, the games, the free online...just incredible.

Add Mag to that list.

I would pay good money for a Warhawk remake. Socom too. The last Socom game just didn’t do it justice. Folklore could use a remaster or remake as well.
Several other titles I would like to remade with the amount of visual fidelity the current gen has over the past consoles it could help articulate the games that we’ve loved growing up. I would love even some ps2 titles to remade.. Dark Cloud from ps2, Legacy of Kain series but don’t know what will come of it sense it was bought by Embracer group and all there layoffs.

This strategy is exactly what helped ruin Xbox. Sony more than Microsoft know when to let a franchise go and that is important to keep things fresh. The old games are there if you want to play them.

Resistance series and Killzone 2 & 3 remasters/remakes. Make it happen. They will print money.

FF13 is top of this list for me. No matter your opinion on it, it being the only numbered offline FF out of all 16 not to be on new consoles is odd. GTA IV would be great too

The only reason my PS3 is still connected is because of the Resistance, Heavenly Sword, Motorstorm games that I still love to play. I am for remaking or remastering them.

Would absolutely love a remastered collection of the resistance games

Resistance 1-3 and Killzone 1-3 too. Folklore and 3 Dot Heroes are underrated gems.

Why remaster games that ps5 players can't access when you can remaster a 4 year old game like tlou2 that was already patched with ps5 improvements

Would love a remake of the first Resistance game and also Tools of Destruction.

A gem of a gen, imo! So much IP to pluck.

Infamous 1&2 will sadly always be ignored by Sony, not even a ps4 remaster the whole gen, smh but uncharted, horizon, even days gone had next gen upgrades sheesh 🤦🏽 mane even tho Sony is still doing pretty good in the console business they are a lil big headed lol, I never played the resistance series but it would of been dope to see those games updated as well, we fans get lil surprises here n there but things we really are into having and being vocal about gets passed over like a mf 🤣😩

Remasters are a waste of time and developer resources. Real Devs make new games.

God I would live a Killzone or Resistance collection. Really hoping for a new one in either franchise down the line, loved both series.

I’d say new sequels instead.

Got be resistance /prototype as well

How much prefer the killzone universe to that of Horizon's.

Killzone again pls 🥺

Gratz Guerilla, amazing Studio and engine, love Decima!

I was never a huge fan of Killzone, but thoroughly enjoy Horizon. Guerrilla are superb developer and easily up there with the best of the best.

Need a killzone 2 remake from the ground up.

One of the most creative studios out. I hope they keep it up.

Great studio, loved the Killzone series, I wish they would do a remake of the first three games. Horizon is a real step up and truly put Guerrilla Games on the map.

Too bad I never got a chance to play Shellshock: Nam’67 would have loved to try that game out back in the days to see what were their beginnings.

Bring back killzone (maybe in 3rd person perspective)

It would fantastic to see what they could do in Killzone after the lessons learned through Horizon.

Or heck, give us even a short linear FPS from the people who designed Cauldron THETA in the Burning Shores expansion. Even just flying into it (after gliding around and finding its opening amongst the lava and Sunwings perched around it, with other bigger machines just along the path toward it) was an incredible experience.

Great work until now. Keep on this path

Hope they get the opportunity to create a new IP this gen as well.

Forbidden West is awesome, It’s pretty damn big compared to Zero Dawn and it takes a little while to get your skills up and get the equipment you need to fully explore the game (not going to spoil it) but once you do those things and start fighting the big ass machines it really is amazing. Some cool side quests to where you hold the fate of peoples lives by your choice and the cauldrons look amazing. Lots of skills , combos, special moves and add ons for your weapons so you can approach fights many ways. Looking forward to the name game but I wonder how/if Silas will be a part of it or not ? Sad he’s gone.

Killzone games weren’t the best shooters but damn did they look purty!!!!

Killzone 2 remade with the multiplayer

20 years of mid-tier games and they are trending down.

I'm hyped for whenever Horizon 3 releases but Killzone 1 needs a remake BAD and 2 & 3 need remasters. Criminal those games are stuck on PS3.

Hold up

Horizon: Zero Dawn sold 24.3 million
The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild sold 29.81 million

With the way journalists have been consistently saying BotW overshadowed Horizon you’d think the gap between an entry in a new IP and a longrunning one would be bigger Even if you want to include however much the Wii U version of BotW did, both series still did impressive numbers

I never want to hear that Horizon is an overlooked franchise ever again

i really loved the atmosphere and idea of killzone. i hope they revisit it at some point because it always had so much potential.

Bring Back Killzone please or at least a KZ2 remake with MP.
