Killzone 2 is a stunning game best suited for FPS aficionados, rabid graphics *****s, and all proud Ps3 owners in general. Guerrilla Games have stepped up to the plate and delivered very comparable results to “that preview video” that blew our collective minds in 2005. Using Guerrilla’s proprietary ‘deferred rendering engine’ Killzone 2 squeezes a lot more juice out of the Ps3 than anything we’ve seen thus far.
Despite scoring an ‘A -’ on voice acting and sorely lacking co-operative options, Killzone 2 bounces back with a very well realised competitive multiplayer mode. This icing on the cake successfully maintains the visual fidelity of the single player campaign, while including an addictive class/perk system that will keep Ps3 owners happily in ‘the kill zone’ for a long time to come.
In our opinion, Killzone 2 has managed to avoid becoming a victim of the hype, but we still think it’ll be bashed by the same narrow-minded naysayers all the same. To those people, we say: experience it first (play, not YouTube), express your amazement afterwards.
I added you on psn last night roy specifically for this title so you better buy it![]()
just loading the review on my crappy 512k connection at my parents house.... i reckon i'll be buying this just to shot Roy tbh.
This is now only 29.99 at shopto.net or for the ubergeeks like me you can have it in a metal tin for £32.99
I mean a metal tin! How cool is that![]()
Oh f**k it. I've pre-ordered the c-unit from Play. I'm not really happy about buying a shooter for sticks, but I've no choice in this case. From the gameplay videos I've seen in 'HD' today, I must concede that this game looks amazing, and I simply have to play it :approve:
I think R1 is only a tenner mate at shopto.net
Used to love the one shot, one kill shotgun multiplayer on R1!
Is it a team based game like COD? Looks nice but I can't be arsed with ordering other people about.
You can get Resistance 1 for peanuts now, especially used.
It's a great game, I traded mine ages ago.
Maybe now its worth Googling the real time ray tracing light streams - as I think it was this time last week you couldn't be arsed![]()
Yeah I thought i saw it on amazon the other day.
whats that shopto place like?? Is it a foreign site or are they english games?? Not that it matters what region you get.
I will later when I'm bored. AFAIK ray tracing requires completely different gfx technology that no currently available cards have, never mind any system that has the power to do it in real time at a decent fps, but I'll have a look later.
Bracknell, Berkshire best place I have used.
Maybe just maybe its not done on the graphics card![]()
I never said it was lol and didn't compare it to wall e or say photo realistic but glad you took the time to find out![]()
Technically it appears that KZ2 does use some form of ray tracing-lite in some places though, which is a good thing, and technically means you win. Technically speaking I munsoned myself, but morally I munsoned you.
