As I cited in the OP here's the Meta quote for Absolute games review:

70 - Absolute Games
Zero - that's how many fresh ideas Killzone 2 brings to the table. Had it been released alongside Soldier of Fortune or Medal of Honor: Allied Assault, it would have made a big fuss. Today, after Call of Duty 4, Gears of War 2 and Half-Life 2: Episode Two, its gameplay looks weak. Very few enemy variations, cliched situations repeat over and over again, and there is not enough story to fill a Saturday morning cartoon.

 

Have they played Call of Duty 4? It certainly suffers from the same faults... (Yes, I loved it).

 

I think CoD4 was cited as more of a reference to gameplay changes, you have the aim assist that makes it not so easy and cheap to zig zag on console FPS, but unlike lock on it doesn't do the work for you, then you have the weapon and leveling system, nothing new but the weapons are pretty cool and there's a good bit of them, then you have it where once you reach the cap you can start again for more rep basically and unlocking a few things.

CoD4 helped revolutionize in a well built FPS for a console and working within the limitations of consoles, like the inability to shoot precisely, to make little adjustments to keep on someone you're fighting, etc.

But that's my take on the inclusion of CoD4.
