I agree a lot.

Though I doubt they'd ever be able to fix multiplayer with the directions they took.

Wanna bet?

I think its better they get Killzone 3 out this year, because Guerlia Games are apparently beginning work on a new FPS IP after this. imo its better they get this out and improve their fanbase instead of waiting another year. Killzone 2 didnt sell that much tbh. so its better they just keep developing because a game that takes  3 years to develop might not guarantee success that can be achieved with a game released every 2 years.

While I don't want to sound like a stick in the mud. I would recommend that you play it first before passing judgement. These reviews aren't making sense at all. They are hitting Killzone 3 with a double standard and it is truly unfair. While Killzone 3 comes out in a short few days I myself will have a strong opinion of whether or not they needed more time or not. I'm not going to judge it based off of these reviews though. Any review that says Killzones story is bad but Call of Dutys is great is automatically discredited

Holy shit dude, before you make threads on games needing more development time play the dam game first. Don't make assumption based off any of these reviews. Half the reviews contradict themselfs while the other half just nip pick away at the title and some have even mentioned things like "you need to hold the crouch button to stay in cover which gets annoying" even though if they searched through the dam options they'd see a setting to have crouch set as toggle or hold.

If KZ3 did have another years development you'd be reading reviewers that downplay the game for its long development time like the way GT5 was downplayed. This game has improved in nearly every single way it can over the last game in the series.

Just to clear up some of the points you mentioned. If this game took 5 years to make you'd still have only offline co-op. For the same reasons that Uncharted 2 and Resistance 1 and 2 didn't have online story co-op is probably the same reason KZ3 doesn't have it. It might be to complicated to include.

Cutscenes that should be playable????If they could be played then they wouldn't be cutscenes?????

Audio mixing in cutscenes????? The demo seemed alright too me and if a reviewer wasn't trying to nick pick at the game then I don't know how a reviewer would pick up on something like that.

Again with the weird transition between cutscenes and gameplay. I don't have a clue what they mean but its all just nit picking really.

If the game looks good to you then Just play the dam game and make up your own mind based off it. Easy

I expect Uncharted 3 to get complaints about its sands level not sandy enough. Seriously, how's the gameplay, that's the biggest issue Killzone had. 

yeah no online coop what was up with that?

i agree i dont think any real big exclusive should be coming out at this time of yr anyways, aug - dec is the right time to release these types of games after the holidays gamers experience what i call gamer exhaustion

but who knows why they choose to get it out that fast maybe there on a tight schedule maybe we could see another KZ before the next PS console releases and this time they could take that 2.5-3yrs of dev, so fall of 2013 or early 14 seems right to me seeing as i believe the  next PS console is to release no earlier than fall of 2014

The gameplay has improved drastically over KZ2. Movements not as heavy, Aimming down the sights is improved a lot, they added a sliding mechanic  so you can slide into cover and the crouch button can now be toggled on and off in cover so you don't have to hold down crouch to hug walls and such. It makes for a far better experiance because you can now comfortably shoot from behind cover and pop out without confusion.

Insomniac is working on 2 games at a time (Resistance and Ratchet & Clank), GG is working on just 1.

thank, that's sounds good to me
