Somewhat boring experience . The stages seem identical and the colour pallet is the definition of "bland" . The characters are indifferent and without personality , no cole train here. The gameplay is so linear that it makes the COD games seem like fallout3. The stages are tiny .Many missions where you have to stay in one spot and face wave after wave of enemies , so annoying. The lighting is phenomenal and so are the post proceeding effects and the sound .The A.I is very good. I somehow liked the cover system more in the complete game than in the demo.

It achieves a war-like atmosphere , in spite of its flaws. I'd give the gameplay a 7 and the technical achievements a 10. I just wish it was more colourful , like the 2005 trailer .
Oh and ,on another note i bought a KZ2 bundle cause my ps3 broke and sony Greece sucks !!!!!!

I am eagerly waiting for impressions of the game, but I will take a pass on yours.  Please don't take offense, but you really do not have any credibility to review of a PS3 game.  Now scoot back to the Microsoft forums, and let us enjoy this game.

 

if you leave away all the digs and the bullshit comparissons.. its pretty accurate.. but we knew that already...

 

we knew that the leveldesign is unispired.. the story black and white despite the wonderful potential hinted at on the website.. your squad mates are as generic.. exept for rico.. whom i hated in the first game.. well and now hes shouting orders and swears a lot , hes even more obnoxious now

- the ai is good even on medium difficulty

 - helghast voice acting is great isa voice acting is not

- the controls seem less clunky than in the demo..

- the weapons are fun to use and have a more realitic feeling than in killzone 1

- when autosaving the game stops for a few seconds

- in some areas you will encounter slowdowns (there is a whole thread about this)

- the six axis explosives and valve features feel like a gimmick

 

thats my singleplayer impression so far.. if you say.. we knew that already.. well yes.. what did you expect if they say its a shooter like any other in both the good and the bad sense

 

as for multiplayer

- no lags

- after 2 minutes of playing  the mute feature will become your best friend due to mic spamming or just because its a   useless distraction because you cant understand a word most of the time

 - much smoother controlls than in singleplayer

 - a rank based filter that filters out games with players too high above you own rank..  thus if you only have a rifle and a pistol so will everyone else.. beware of the guys with the shotguns though

- no framerate issues

- leveing up is fun at even someone like me can do it

- right now i cant get a connection due to error 10002 and 10003
