Looking back at Killzone 2 and what it did right

PS3Vault writes: "2009 has been a year packed full of amazing titles across all platforms, and as the year comes to a close, gamers are starting to make their picks for the "Game of the Year" categories. Early this year, the Playstation 3 was treated to the highly anticipated Killzone 2, a visually stunning and adrenaline fueled First Person Shooter. When KZ2 first came out, it was well received gaining a 91 on Metacritic, and to many fans instantly earned a spot in several GotY categories, such as best PS3 game, best graphics, best FPS and even GOTY. But as I was glancing over the various categories and nominations across the web, I began to see that KZ2’s competition may be to much, Uncharted 2 and Modern Warfare 2 being the biggest obstacles. Both games are fantastic and certainly deserve any awards given to them, however I wanted to take a moment to look back at one of the years first heavy hitters to see what it did right."
