for publishers selling stuff on PSN. Just add the extra cost to the price of the game/DLC
However, free DLC, Sony should give the publishers a break by not charging. You never know; this might be the case already but someone's keeping quiet.
And still we get free online gaming.
Hope it's true. But the AI needs to be fixed and made super clever for online MP, so that every human will sh1t themselves knowing that they are playing against bots.
But even so the console sales will undoubtedly increase because there are still a helluva lot of Ps2 owners out there waiting for it to be more affordable to them.
But now, I wanna see a new controller(Sony's version of the wii-mote) plus fun games that use the device as well as shooters. Then the Ps3 will start to eat into wii sales.
With COD:MW2 around the corner, who the heck would buy CoD4.
MW2 will undoubtedly be a whole lot better and will have RUMBLE for ps3 owners.
I still don't have a Ps3 version due to no rumble. Sheez. IW would made alot of dollars had they sold a rumble patch to ps3 owners of CoD4.
As for a re-release: it will only do well if it is at a discounted price.
Is why developers dont simply copy and improve on what others have done.
Sheez. It's not rocket science to work out why Halo, Gears, CoD4 have done so well - epic vistas, music, vehicles, enemies, weapons of Halo; gung-ho protagonists, over-the-top baddies & cover system of Gears, slick & more realistic presentation & warfare of CoD4. Obvious pluses.
As for KZ2: it's still a 9+/10 game but it could have been so much better. Had GG implemented everythin...
SP could have been so much better with greater variety of enemies and challenges and fully usable vehicles. I'm already tired of MP and have returned to Warhawk.
But KZ2 MP can be improved with these changes:
* get rid of the spawn flares - this was a huge mistake and limits gameplay
* new maps and vehicles(mechs, intruders, tanks, jeeps)
* make the rankings more challenging/difficult to get
* level things up by making all abilities available from get go ...
But Warhawk is one of the best MP online out there. GG should have learnt a few tricks from this great game....and Halo - not just R2 and CoD4.
KZ2 is quickly becoming stale. GG made a major error with the Spawn Flares. They need to be removed because games are easily won by strategic placing of the flares.
KZ2 should just have spawn zones or spawn vehicles as in Warhawk.
Also, the maps are small compared to Warhawk.
And KZ2 really needs v...

What a lame read.
Graphics is not gameplay. Sheez, that's a no brainer.
Realism is not just graphics, but also physics, destructible environments, animation etc.
Gameplay is separate issue. And with a combat game like OF2 with air and land vehicles and a huge battlefield, gameplay won't be an issue.
Strategy, survival and victory will.
As for "hobbling" the ps3 version - first party Ps3 developed games cl...
for shooters.
It's a slow but obvious trend especially as the Hardware gets more powerful.
Like to see finite fuel/ammo and realistic harm/damage when wounded. Then watch players tread carefully on the battlefield instead of all gung-ho.
The PC will undoubtedly be the better version and the Ps3 version will be deliberately hobbled by the developers so that it will be the same as the 360 version - to ensure good sales on both consoles.
OF...
Built using the Killzone 2 engine with new appealing male & female leads, improved cover system, with bad@rse buff armour clad space marines with vehicles and epic environments and inspiring sound track.
Oh but let a fanboy dream.
...that deserves to be in the same League as CoD4 and Halo.
However, the online gameplay and victory becomes very predictable with a tactician that knows how to use the spawn flare....and one who doesn't.
It's longevity is in serious doubt.
Removing the spawn flare from the game forces team to truly fight their way to victory rather than a Tactician planting a spawn flare at a exact location to destroy/defend/retrieve or to launch attacks at the target o...
....and will continue to do so if Warhawk 2:
* Become First person shooter
* adds Bots
* adds a sprint, roll and climb function
* adds Killzone-like Warzone, classes
Even without these improvement Warhawk is truly an unappreciated awesome MP experience and at least as much fun as Halo & CoD4 if not more so.
Killzone 2 however, seriously needs vehicles(jeep, tank, aircraft) and to get rid of the spawn flares. Spawn Zones are more a...
The Only way I could possibly win is if does a lot of free DLC and updates that make the ae significantly better for the rest of this year - eg. Add vehicles, new modes, new maps & weapons(where tf is the flame thrower, lightning gun), coop or split screen and yes.....fix those fracken controls.
CoD:MW2 will be the GOTY. IW has found the magic to make a truly awesome sequel and won't mess up. Cant wait for MW2.
The SP could have been made so much better with with better VO and dialog, variety of action and lack of EPIC moments, fully usable vehicles(fighting against them and with them)....and of course having Coop and split screen.
This is obvious.
Enough's enough. We've had the respected reviews.
We already know how good Killzone 2 is.
Now, I'm just hoping and prey for maps and vehicle DLC or updates to make the game even better.
By consensus and majority rule, the opinion is Killzone 2 is clearly a 9+ out of 10.
Even the top gaming sites concur.
Only ignorant fanboys score it lower with idiotic excuses for marking it low.
Yes there are minuses to the game(no coop/split screen, lack of variety and epic moments in SP, crappy/annoying VO, lack of fully usuable vehicles SP/M and those damn slow controls) but lack of innovation is not one of them.
Again....even the top g...
That could have made the SP a whole lot better.
The SP was very standard with little variation or epic set pieces. I mean, WTF. Why didn't you copy other successful shooter franchises more GG?
The SP would have been alot better if GG had:
* Given the player the ability to shoot and look around when riding in the Intruder(CoD4, RB6)
* made vehicles fully usable on most levels -either fighting against or with them(Halo, BF:BC).

@demetri
hehehe Ps2 game. hehehe.
Yeah, the graphics are nothing compare to KZ2 but its the gameplay not the graphics that is the making of Warhawk.
When you have flown into the enemy main base, barely avoiding air mines, Rpgs and Turrent fire; laid down a lightning bolt to clear up the mines, land and grab the flag, then fight you way out of the base avoiding warhawks, tanks, mines and all sorts of fire arms with air and ground support from your team ma...
After playing the MP for a week, it's so obvious how to win each mode or most modes.
THE SPAWN FLARE.
Whether offence or defence, you need a appropriately positioned spawn point else you are likely to lose the game.
Then it all just becomes a spawn-action-die, spawn-action-die, spawn-action-die etc etc.
This is slowly but surely starting to become tiresome to me.
GG really needs to bring in more variety into the MP gameplay, tac...
Releasing a game a year after being on the 360 first, totally fracks up their sales on the Ps3.
History clearly shows, sales/profits are much better with simultaneous release of a multplat game.
Think of the bottom dollar here, Capcom.
