Heavenly Sword is amazing. Too bad the gameplay was short.
Lair as well.. Epic scale of levels/textures/animations/par ticles.. but again the controls were terrible.

Killzone is an FPS. There is no way to screw it up or else its no longer an FPS. All it needs is a good single player & multiplayer. Done deal. Nothing holds a candle to this game.

Its characters are amazingly detailed, as well as the world they are in. You can tell they didn't just concentrate on the characters in this game, because the console couldn't handle the huge world + post processing. I don't think we have ever seen a game like this on a console.

Killzone 2 has potential to be great as long as it doesn't copy the first one. I hated the first killzone the enemies seemed generic and I just couldn't find myself caring about the characters or the story. Killzone 2 looks to change that.

Have you played Killzone Liberation. It's not essential to but it's a big portion of what happens between Killzone 1 and Killzone 2.

[socomnick]

never played liberation its on the psp right I heard it was good might check it out on my cousins psp.

i think home is a pivotal part of anyones stratgy if you want a sucessful online multiplayer experience. home is one of the most inovative things this industry has seen in a long time. one of hte purpoes of home is to extend the arena b3yond games. like phil harrison said there are gonna be locations in home that represent retailers shoping centers and maybe even mcdonalds and burger king. just think of what that means and you will relize why home is gonna be so exciting and popular

This is how ALL PLAYSTATION games will be connected. Way stronger of a community.

[Says you]

They put those Helghast attack dogs and vehicles whatever their keeping a secret considering everything in this game is all happening all at once and of coures alot of the MDF would cry and say why cant our games do that all at once and then they would realize they cant.

@wetpoopy...

Whaa??

[pwnsause]

what has me worried about the PSN is the fact that sony doesnt run their servers like what microsoft does. dont get me wrong the PSN is getting better, I just dont like the fact that devs have to run the servers

[Premonition]

? Guerilla is part of sony so i doubt their servers will have any problems most of the 1st party games online have been smooth, so i dont see any worries.

[felman87]

PSN has dedicated servers so what's there to complain about?

[pwnsause]

I know guerilla is first party, just the server, i didnt knew that sony runs the servers themselves. im surprised. :)

[Clinton514]

Sony isn't saying much about HOME and Guerrilla is keeping just as quiet.

[moscardini7]

Home is going to be very fun ,sucessful online multiplayer PSN is getting better,every time .you see .

[black28]

Home is going to flop.

[felman87]

because it's a free service?

[OatLoops]

Because it's not on his system of choice ;-)

[WIIIS1]

If there was any hope that KZ2 was going to be a good game, it has been flushed down the toilet with this announcement.

[felman87]

care to elaborate?

[BulletToothtony]

Damn.. this game doesn't only look awesome but they're adding cool features multiplayer features...

Man i wish i had a ps3..

[Clinton514]

He's a mentally challenged troll.

[Sevir04]

Damn it I wish i could afford a ps3 so i can enjoy a service like this where developers want to extend entertainment outside of an awesome game like this. now i feel ripped off because MS is gang raping my pockets for a text based service like Live.

[Synex]

Awesome I can't wait.

Wait a minute where did that GTA4 release date for Oct. article go?

[HarryEtTubMan]

Killzone is going to be siiiccckkk!

[jaja1434]

hmm...Well it better use Home. Kind of the reason Home is there in the first place. :)

[nomad117]

I'm going to make sure i pre-order this on the first day.
