BEST LOOKING generic shooter confirmed...?? |
Most previewers say it plays like CoD4, aside from the lean-and-peek system, about which IGN said this:
Having sat through the show, the game introduces the sneak and peek mechanic that forms the core of the experience with no hesitation, placing the player amidst a heated firefight with ample opportunities for cover – and it works remarkably well, offering a more than welcome new facet to the FPS genre.
Keeping in first-person all the way, the L1 button latches the player to cover, and whilst in hiding players have free movement left and right, with a either a tug on the trigger or upwards on the analogue stick resulting in that all-important 'peek'. Amazingly for a game that is now some nine months off release, it never really falters in granting some tactical defence, and largely avoids some of the snagging and poor detection that can blight other similar systems, lending the firefights a dynamism only seen in the finest shooters.

CoD4 gameplay + a first-person cover system + semi-destructable environments is as generic and boring as you can get, right?
I really don't see why Killzone 2 has to completely reinvent FPS gameplay for some of you to be impressed. :|
