Video Game Reviews of Killzone 2

Customer Review: Horrible Multiplayer
Summary: 1 Stars

Have played this game now for a couple of weeks and overall was impressed with the campaign mode. The field of vision is very narrow as opposed to say gears of war.This doesnt really bring the game down too much though.It does get repetitive but than again most games do. When this happens nowadays you simply play the multiplayer. As most PS3 games I didnt have any lag and the menu was quite good.

Whats so horrible than? Well for starters the cover system has been removed from the multiplay component of the game. Think this is no big deal? It really is,the entire game is built around it yet taken out of the multiplay.

So now you just enter games grab weapons and respawn constanly in a field of a dozen of so players hitting you from all sides with guns and grenades.No strategy ,no cover ,very little teamwork and you simply die contsantly respawn charge out and shoot hopefully take down a player or two and than your dead again than nyou respaw.

Frantic action with no thought or startegy,unike gears of war or even call of duty games... Horrible.. Maybe the teams should be less players,put the cover system back in and have smaller maps and it could work but now its just horrible .

Why people can even say the multiplay is fun is beyond me.. Brainless shooting is fun? Wheres the startegy of tracking down your opponents,ducking under cover and working in teams??

Description of Killzone 2

Killzone 2 PS3
Get ready to take on the full strength of the Helghast war machine from a dramatic first-person perspective with Killzone 2 for PS3. From Guerilla Games, this much anticipated follow-up to Killzone for PS2 and Killzone: Liberation for PSP drops you right into the boots of battle hardened special forces soldier Sev. Set two years after the aborted Helghast assault on Vekta, the action opens with your ISA Legion squad deployed behind enemy lines on the Helghan's unforgiving home turf.

Combat Lifelike AI and Inhospitable Terrain
Despite the smooth character animations and swift-thinking AI behind each individual Helghan, their planet itself may be the most deceptive opponent that you face. Unlike other game environments that serve as nothing more than a visual backdrop, the devastating Helghan climate takes a notable toll. And, worst of all, the Helghans know exactly how to use the planet against you.

The in-your-face perspective comes to life as you take aim with exotic new weapons and mainstays from the previous games, including the M82-G assault rifle. And you can now drive an array of rugged, sometimes strange, vehicles that expand the gruesome possibilities of war.

Guerilla Technology in a Terrifying, Realistic World
Guerrilla's unique visuals and deferred rendering technology ensure that even the ugliest situations on Helghan are beautifully lit. Ambient occlusion and accurate shadow casting from a variety of light sources combine with gritty textures, detailed environments, and studio-grade special effects to help complete the realistic, Hollywood experience of this first-person shooter.

Real-time cutscenes, full-screen anti-aliasing, motion blurs, and internal lens reflections all bring you into the fold and work to maximize the hardware capabilities of the PS3. And the audio experience is no less impressive. 7.1 surround sound capability lend a truly dynamic sound element to your experience, while audio occlusion with wave tracing means that you can hear the difference between indoor and outdoor firefights.

Chaotic Multiplayer Drama Online
While single-player mode lets you take on the unique challenges of 11 fully developed levels, online play lets you engage with up to 32 players at a time, bringing the gritty, realistic chaos of war to a whole new level.

Other multi-player friendly enhancements in Killzone 2 include in-game clan management, a match wagering system, and the ability to integrate new information and track friends and enemies with the community at Killzone.com.
