I haven't bought this game, but some people I know have and they are absolutely loving it, binning MW2 and playing this. I'm still on the fence with it but it's amazing how some of these reviews are so poor yet actual people owning and playing it love it
It may have something to do with the amount of games that come out? us ps3 owners have multiplats such as assassins creed 2, batman, bioshock and then several exclusives throughout the year and not everybody can afford that many - hence sony games tend to have a long sales tail.
I know there have been many games I have missed soon after their launch simply because too much choice
I don't think it is meant to compete with MW2 etc, it's a different kind of game right? much more strategic, team based play
"SHIPPED 5.2 million new Xbox 360 game consoles, bringing the total SOLD to date since 2005 to 39 million."
so is it shipped or sold?
Just think, before submitting an article.
Is it of use, is this what people want to read, is it interesting games news?
I think they were playing a different beta...yes the load times etc are long, but they said in the article its a beta, and the devs have already acknowledged the load times etc are being dealt with...This game is so much fun and for me rivals the simple fun of mario kart and just adds to it with endless creative opportunities.
Great stuff and looking forward to the release.

I'm amazed they give you internet access in that crazy place your currently imprisoned in.
Hopefully this will make people think twice before jumping on the COD band wagon this year - for me, BFBC betas COD in every way.
It doesn't matter if this is a 10/10 score, the principle still stands, it's a 'review' based on a beta and limited time with the final game - not good enough.
Great score, but get ready for the peculiar 'cons' as there is nothing else negative.
After the disappointment that was COD, and after playing the nuts off the beta for this, launch cannot come soon enough
But what is being said is true, the servers haven't been up - you simply cannot review a game that's main strength is online only and 256 player battles. Sony should ban all these sites that have posted a review, simple.
@above, true as sony said "how can you review a game which main feature is 256 players online before the launch"
void.
Killzone 2 was one the best games of 2009, and probably the best FPS I have ever played. I have to be honest, I suspect this game WILL be released in 2010, they were showing improvements to the game engine pretty much as soon as they released KZ2, so I don't doubt they can do it if they want to - bring it.
Nobody knows if it's an exclusive or not. Msft revealed Lost Planet 2 via xbox live bla bla for it to turn out to be on ps3 too
the internet jumping to conclusions again? surely not.
joke article?
If these screens are real, then unfortunately it looks like the 360 has hit it's peak in graphical ability. Now i know it's not just about graphics, and fair enough, the gameplay may be amazing, but to me Bioshock 2 looks better than this and it's a multiplat.
Oh well, time will tell I guess
"**** UPDATE **** For all the PS3 fan boys voting LAME can I just say that Sony released a date of Spring 2010 at last years TGS... Now please stop making up reasons to vote this down because you love your console soooo much! **** UPDATE ****"
Says the article writer who is jumping on an opportunity to slate sony and accuse them of 'botching'. Funny how we didn't see hardly any articles when msft's big hitter splinter cell was delayed....
I agree with this delay - I think it would have been silly to launch it alongside the big hitters they have lined up for the 1st half of the year, I probably wouldn't even consider the motion stuff whilst the releases of heavy rain, god of war, GT5 etc are all coming out, but autumn, I may well take more of an interest
I'm glad they are not adding prone. It's bad enough already having half of your team being snipers, this would only encourage more to snipe.
Nothing more frustrating than the game kicking off and you seeing half your squad run into the hills!
