8/10 is considerd great for me :P but its far from what made KZ2 unique. Briefly: In KZ2 MP, you saw the ISA right infront as you and your helghast team all struggle to put your sights on them. It led to these amazing war feeling moments that truly made Killzone live up to the name of a .. Kill Zone XD. In KZ3, GG sadly abandoned the atmospheric and gritty Helghast due to people wanting more color >_>. Along with more twitch focused gameplay. See someone in KZ3? Aim down the sights and hold the fire button => If you see him first, 7-8 times out of 10: Youll kill him. In KZ2: You had to crouch and tap fire to line up your shots. It led to moments where even if you were seen first: a skillful player could turn around and kill the other guy. Reaction time wasnt everything. Basically 3 became closer to CoD in the fundenmental feeling. Despite this, the weight was still somewhat there and its fun. Just no KZ2. Oh and in KZ2: Aiming down the sights at close to medium range was suicide. I only ever did it when I had a hard time seeing people. I just preferred KZ2. It was the best FPS experience I have ever had and I wish GG had continued with the WW2 gritty nazi killzone. |
KZ2's story was just brilliant in my mind and same with the voice acting but KZ3's story and voice acting did get cheezy at some points throughout the game. The colors didn't bother me but the whole WW2 feeling in KZ2 was hard to get used to. Killzone 2 MP was great when it came out but now its just really unbalanced and overly chaotic (due to the weird controls) which is probably why it didn't have the best legs and fell below sales expecatations. Killzone 3 on the other hand I thought was great. The MP was unbalanced like KZ2 but it was REALLY fun and playable (not chaotic like KZ2). I still think games like Starhawk, Halo and Battlefield are better shooters than KZ but its quite great. So overall:
KZ3 8.1/10 (The highest I have ever rated a game is 9.4 and that's GTA V!)
Pros
Best gameplay
Best MP
Great SP
Decent Story
Cons
Unbalanced MP
Cheezy voice acting at times
Not enough veichles
KZ2 7.2 (In my books that's pretty darn good)
Pros
Best Story
Best voice acting
Great SP mode
Cons
Tacky Controls
Overly chaotic online mode
