PS3-Sense: Killzone 2 Review

PS3 Sense writes: "Killzone 2 is certainly a shooter that a lot of media attention has been given in recent years. It all started with the trailer that was shown at E3 2005. This trailer was a piece of the first level in the game to see. The infamous trailer is still burned on the retina of many gamers, and everyone wondered if Killzone 2 is actually like this would come to see. Let us answer this question directly but, yes it is possible to Guerilla Killzone 2 is even better showing than the trailer that you received when presented. But with just beautiful graphics you save it as shooter, the gameplay elements are very important, even for a gamer on graphics geilt. Killzone 2 in terms of gameplay or even just a historical shooter will be like Call of Duty and Counter Strike, which you can read this review. "

Dang, I gotta get my things straight, so I can play KZ2 at least for a week without having to run for groceries and sitting on computer paying bills.

Timberland2K95541d ago

I think im gonna quit gaming for a week so i can have a full 48 hours straight of Killzone 2 Single player and multi

Timberland2K95541d ago

I smell victory for my favorite platform.

Str8laced5541d ago

Does it smell anything like MGS4 or LBP or maybe RES2 or how about MotorstormPR. That was suppose to be the next thing to christ.

XtreemGamer5541d ago

The story isn't short... I've played the full game,and on hard difficulty the gameplay is 8-8,5 hours.

jammy_705541d ago

is it better than cod 4 campaign?

man u lucky!

XtreemGamer5541d ago (Edited 5541d ago )

I've played the multiplayer(beta) and the single player campaign(final build),and i must say it is awesome. Of course i played the SP on hard difficulty,because i want to know how much long is the game,when it's really challenging. And yeah,it didn't disappoint.. I'm not going to compare KZ2 with CoD4,because both game are great. I've played the final game with a reviewer group. I didn't say that the game's single-player part is a 10/10,it's not. If i should review the single-player part,i would give a 9.3/10. But the multiplayer is the game's strongest point,and that is where it's becoming a 10/10..

In a few words.. if you liked CoD4,then you will like KZ2 alot! The only thing is this game is less arcade style. Everything have weight,and you must get into that feeling. After a 15-20 min gameplay the controls are very good and realistic.

INehalemEXI5541d ago

Was having fun today playing through the demo with just a knife aside from the bazooka blowing up bridge part.

SAiOSiN5540d ago

just throw a grenade at it...it works. or pistol. lol i love the demoso much,u can beat it in so many ways.

BMS845541d ago

I can't wait to play the multiplayer, i think it's gonna be very addictive;)

Tarasque5541d ago

And the worst controls of any FPS on the PS3 so far as well.

TresTrendu5541d ago

Tru dat, Tru dat......

Solidsnakex235541d ago (Edited 5541d ago )

just because you don't crouch with the "o" button? Alt 2 config is almost like Call of Duty 4. Did you play Killzone 2 yet?

Edit: What is wrong with the control? just asking. I really don't consider myself as a fanboy since I will protect both my investments I own. I haven't gotten a Wii since it is still hard to find.

Str8laced5541d ago

For some reason sony fanboys have a hard time reading. He said controls not button config. I have played with alt 2 and and adjusted my sens and it doesn't help how it controls.

LazyDevs5541d ago

Man that is some funny sh1t, i don't consider myself a fanboy. I will name myself hmmm let me see halo no, how about gears no, Solidsnake that's it.

Graphics Whore5541d ago

Tarasque, learn to play. The controls are fine, maybe you just aren't good? lol.

Solidsnakex235540d ago (Edited 5540d ago )

Like I said, I do not need to talk good about this game. Everyone else is. I see your bend over buddy is trying to save you here. Also Solidsnake is just a name I picked cause the name I wanted on the 360 is already used. My PSN name is actually Strikerx23 the same one that I wanted on the 360... hmmm I think you got it all wrong again because Solidsnake was on lets see..... Gamecube... check.... playstation... check.... Xbox.... CHECK. I see you fail my friend

PlayStation 3 Games That Desperately Need a PS5 Remaster

The PlayStation 3 may not have been the strongest generation for Sony, but there were still some diamonds in the rough that deserve a revisit as PS5 remasters.

Even if they could just remaster and put on PSVR2, some would still look great as VR titles and could do a whole lot to bolster the headset w these exclusives! I'd imagine the investment of reworking these titles into VR would be way less than building new games from the ground up, and they could be amazing experiences, and VR often makes flat games feel fresh again. The Resistance and Killzone games are particularly what I want to see!!

Rude-ro42d ago

I played killzone 3 in 3d and it really changed the game per being immersive.
In vr, that would be even more awesome.

darthv7242d ago

Funny you mention that... my son wanted to play some PS3 games in 3d on my PS tv and he was blown away by how good KZ3 was. It really was a great addition to the game. Im surprised there have not been more 3d games from that era being ported to the PSVR/VR2.

_SilverHawk_42d ago

resistance 1-3, killzone 1-3, uncharted 1-3, uncharted golden abyss, folklore, socom 4 , motorstorm, twisted metal, MAG, heavenly sword

Cacabunga42d ago

Killzone 2+3
Sly Thieves in Time
Crack in Time
God of War Ascension
Motorstorm
Modnation racer
Infamous 1+2

Profchaos42d ago (Edited 42d ago )

Killzone trilogy in VR would be amazing bonus points if they offer shadow fall.

There was a psvr1 Killzone project that supermassive was working on at one stage which wasn't up to scratch and Sony brand it back in house I was hoping we would see that on psvr2 eventually.

Personally I'd love to see some more love or acknowledgement of psvr2 from Sony in general it was a expensive headset and Sony barely acknowledge it's existence

seanpitt2342d ago

The amount of work needed to remaster these games wouldn't be beneficial on a financial and business sense.. MGS4 would probably be the best bet as it would need the least amount of work!

Iceball200042d ago

YEAAASSSSS! I miss this franchise and wanna play it so bad again.

Father__Merrin42d ago

The time is perfect for a resistance fall of man game campaign coop multiplayer

InUrFoxHole42d ago

The resistance series is str8 trash to me. Socom 3 I would welcome. Or killzone MP.

Marcus Fenix42d ago

A Resistance reboot will be awesome

Michiel198942d ago

That's what Bungie should make, Ill keep saying it until it happens

1Victor42d ago (Edited 42d ago )

Resistance was ok but Warhawk and Starhawk was better and kept me coming back for almost a decade of fun and petty revenge on the loud mouth unskilled players 🤣
Edit I loved capture the flag dropping the pot on the flag carrier was extremely satisfying as well as transforming your plane in bot form and stumping them to death 😱

Michiel198942d ago

Resistance was the best co-op fps I ever played after L4D2

Up there with the top tier in the industry. Love Guerrilla Games - Horizon Burning Shores is simply STUNNING.

1Victor346d ago

Can’t wait for their next franchise

SullysCigar346d ago

Same. They nailed it with Horizon. The trouble is I also want a new Killzone! Can't I just have it all?!

jznrpg346d ago

I’m with you I want Horizon 3 , Killzone and new IPs

badz149345d ago

I have yet to play Burning Shores as I just started Forbidden West (bought at launch, just unwrapped last weekend LOL) and playing on PS5.

man...I still can't believe the graphics especially now I'm playing it on my LG OLED. that graphics and with stable performance backing it up, GG really is the master of their craft!

Vengeance1138346d ago

32.7M sales in the Horizon franchise! With 8.4M coming from Forbidden West alone! Truly a hugely successful game and franchise as a whole. Looking forward to Horizon III

Shane Kim346d ago

That's kind of a huge drop though. It's only been two games.

VersusDMC346d ago

One year after realease HZD sold 7.6 million.

https://www.noobfeed.com/ne...

So not a drop off.

Unless you're saying a HFW should have sold as much now as HZD sold in 5 years?

Vengeance1138346d ago

It's been 3 games, this includes Call of the Mountain. Also no, its a great improvement over HZD.

solideagle346d ago

lol you are comparing:

HZD: 28 February 2017 - May 2023 (6 years+)

HFW: 18 February 2022 - May 2023 (1 year+)

We will see if it surpass original number.

Phoenix76346d ago

@shane, 2 full main games, 2 DLC add ons, 1 VR spin off game, oh and a an official LEGO set.
Not too bad for an ip that's only been on market for 6 years

REDGUM346d ago

Wow, very impressive. I didn't know the numbers were so high for Forbidden West. Still playing through it myself

thesoftware730346d ago (Edited 346d ago )

Yooo, when I first saw that Killzone 1 footage at E3, my friends my brothers and I were like, Holy shit! When it came out, it didn't look exactly like it, but we sunk so many hours into 1 & 2.

I even liked Killzone: SF, it was a spectacle to look at, and even today it looks good. I hope they make a new one. Can you imagine how that will look, and they can get some modern FPS pointers from Bungie.

blacktiger345d ago

thank you fps lover, I'm with you

talocaca346d ago

Such a wonderful studio. They deserve all their success.

The Decima Engine is absolute 🔥 I'm just mad they have abandoned Killzone.

OzzY-waZZy346d ago (Edited 346d ago )

Kinda wish they move on from Horizon tbh.

potatoseal346d ago

They are probably working on mutiple projects. One of them is Horizon 3, but another is a multiplaer game and probably somehting else.

Imalwaysright346d ago

There were rumours that they were working on a Socom reboot.

Top 20 Best PlayStation 3 Games (20-11)

Alex DS. from Link Cable Gaming writes: "Is the PlayStation 3 retro? This is a surprisingly hard question to answer as the system definitely has the age to be considered retro, having launched in 2006, over 15 years ago now. But with it being home to so many massive games, many of which still hold up today and in fact were released for the PlayStation 4 when that console was released, make the PS3 a retro console that doesn’t feel retro."

shinoff2183717d ago

No ps3 is not retro. I dont even consider ps2 era retro. All imo.

shinoff2183717d ago

Typically, the term retro is given to items which are at least 20 years old (but not yet 40 years old).

Quick google search

badz149717d ago

No the PS3 is not yet a retro console. But if you're gonna put 1 game from a series in this list, then LBP2 should be there instead of the original, Motorstorm PR is also an overall better game than the 1st game and to put Tools of Destruction over A Crack in Time is a blasphemy when ACiT is the best game in the series.
