E3 07: Killzone 2 Believe the hype.

Perhaps more than any other game at this point, Killzone 2 has been built up in the minds of Sony-watchers as the lynchpin of the PS3’s success. This is almost entirely thanks to the infamous, stunning trailer that was shown during Sony’s 2005 E3 press conference, which wowed fans senseless until they found it was just a pre-rendered video of what its developers thought it might look like.Now that GamesRadar seen it played, however, no amount of Sony spin can hide the truth. And the truth is that Sony wasn’t lying: Killzone 2, the game, looks shockingly close to Killzone 2, the trailer. And while it doesn’t have quite the same level of polish, it makes up for it by being even crazier and bloodier than the early, imaginary look implied.
