It depends a bit on the genre, but giving characters a voice can also greatly enhance the gameplay. Think Snake from MGS for instance. Many play the game because they want to be Snake in a way. And i think that`s to some degree because of his really cool voice.

This dosn`t just have to be in cut-scenes either. Drake from Uncharted`s constant comments while people are throwing grenades at him just draws me more into the game, making it better.

I know this two examples...

The same thing that happens every year. Some high profile games get delayed and the drama is on. Seriously some of these games like Heavy Rain didn`t even have a release date (at least not an officially known one).

If all those games came out this year, how could i afford them ? If one looks at all the list above me, it`s clear that it`s a lot of great games that has come or will be out this year and for my own part i know i won`t get to play all of them, even if i`ll pick up som...

Tomb Raider meets The Ring and the monsters from Dead Space joins in ;) (The one in the second photo with the horse seem like one)

Havn`t played a TR much before, but maybe this new take on it could be the step the franchise needs to get back on track. It certainly needs it if it`s going to compete with the train scene from Uncharted 2 ;)

The only thing they`ve based this on is : "Well, at the beginning of the year EA (MOH Publishers) admitted that they were working on "the best FPS ever". Wow that`s strange a developer claiming their title is great.

And then follows up with : "If the "best FPS ever" is Anaconda, then it has the potential to be huge". The logic of writers is striking sometimes.

MOH Frontline on PS2 was the last great game in the series for me, and i...

Yeah, you could be right, but it would be a bit strange to have such a short timeframe until the game is out. Usually one knows months before such a big game like GT5 would be out, like GOW3 getting the march 2010 date at E3 this year. I guess strange things have happened, but would surprise me greatly if it was out in 2009. No time frame usually means next year.

Still, if GT5 is announced for 2009 at TGS, it would be a great surprise for PS3 owners, so hope you`re right :)

But i highly doubt GT5 will be out this year as :
1) Sony would`ve announced it already (at least at E3)
2) Retail sites usually just put up a date for game they don`t really know when it`s out (probably to get more people to pay for preorders)

As painful as it is to wait for GT5 (not for myself, as i`m more of a Burnout kind of guy), i think everyone can rest assured that the finished game will be excellent.

It`s like waiting for a team ICO game. You ju...

Actually Killzone on 360 is impossible, since Sony owns GG. And why do you want to see PS games on 360 ? If you want PS3 games, why not buy a PS3 ?

Yeah me too. Really hope the story isn`t too similar to Secret Window though, as the ending could be seen a long way before it came and ruined the whole film for me (have seen the same thing done a lot better in other films). The really bad part was that Deep`s character said the ending was really great and the most important part of it during the course of the film as well, highlighting the very problems in it hehe. Never seen that kind of meta commentary before.

The gameplay se...

Thought it looked very good, and i'm glad we finally got to see more. Just hope they won't go for a Secret Window style story line though.

I remember IW saying they put their best coders in order to get COD4 as good as they could on PS3, so if MW2 was lead on PS3, i guess it wouldn't`t be that strange.

Games that lead on PS3 leads to better results for both platforms, than if on 360 anyway, so i would be a...

But i hope they add so that each player has his own screen during online play. If one plays splitt screen online and i have to change weapons, my friend`s screen gets blocked out by mine and can`t keep on playing on his own.

Very frustrating, although a good way to keep the ones stats down ;)

Hehe ok. I`ve only found grenades there, but maybe it changes from time to time then ;)

No i didn`t, and although it will sound as a strange (and somewhat disgusting) question, where is the toilet paper ? ;)

Crappy controls and sluggish aiming ? Are you sure you havn`t been playing the RE5 demo instead ?

K2`s controls are fine, just add a little more sense and it shouldn`t be any problems playing it. The demo`s great and i didn`t notice the flags actually. Guess that gives me an excellent excuse to play it again ;)

I`m thinking about buying a HD TV now for gaming and is thinking of going for a LG6000 in either 32 or 37 inches. The 37 inches has Full HD, but i`ve heard you can`t see much difference between HD Ready and Full HD if the screen isn`t 40 inches and upwards.

Anyone who can elaborate better or have some advice for another 32 or 37 inch TV i can buy for Killzone 2, i would greatly appreciate it.

...if you`re playing online with 2 players splittscreen, you should be able to change class and perks, without blocking the other player`s view while doing it. Really irritating, when the multiplayer side is so hectic and fun, i don`t want to be taken out of the action because the other player want to change waepons.

Seriously man, there`s so many errors in your post i don`t know where to begin.

Kojima talks a lot of crap and is a fanboy ? I would be hard to see anyone else in this industry be as honest and respectful towards other developers and consoles as him. Even others was boasting about the PS3`s capabilities he said it has it`s limitations and is hard to develop games for. Has he said something bad about 360 ? Compare him to Cliffy B, on the other hand...

I think EDGE gave R2 a 6/10, so that`s why it`s not there. Havn`t tried it for myself yet, but i think it`s better than that.

Agree with you on GTA4 by the way, worst GTA game in ages. It`s a bit strange in some ways actually, because it finally included a good aiming system (even though it was kind of there in SA too), which was my biggest complaint about GTA before. Too bad a lot of other things turned for the worst though :(

Hope it makes it to PS3 as well, even though that chance seems pretty L4D ;)

Kind of agree, but i don`t want to see everything before the game`s out. Much more fun to be "¨shell shocked" the first time you see stuff for yourself ;)

I`m sure they`ll have some daylevels too, in order to show of the lighting engine. Maybe the environments won`t be as varied as MGS4, but as with MGS4, i`m sure there will be different levels and bosses (although i think the more realistic tone in K2 will mean the bosses are not as big as in R2, but who knows). ...
