I played it - three times - and think it will be a good game. However, as enamored as folks are, I am not impressed. It's like most shooters I have played. The demo locked up twice for a few seconds. The visuals weren't that stunning. It seemed a bit out of focus - like a lense with crap and mudspots on it. Maybe it is the way it looks in war.

There are a few demos I have played and enjoyed the demo. Each demo really sells me or leaves me hanging. Unless Sony sends me a review copy or I find it for under $25, I won't be picking this up soon.

consider me shocked.

Played demo,not "Killzoned" but I know that this game will be awesome.
First day game for me.

It's his subtelty that I like.  It's also fun to try and guess what his post would be if the title was a 360 title.

Hey, at least he's thorough by saying he played it 3 times.  I'm sure Sony is in a hurry to send him a review copy...

Ouch.. the last review burns...

Haha. You make me laugh. Being honest - and we've gotten most Sony games - LBP, a couple copies of SOCOM - so I'll get it. If it was a 360 title, it would have gotten the same treatment.

Just because someone has a different impression than you doesn't make it wrong.

Seriously, what is just so awesome about it? It's a good game - and if demos are supposed to influence a person - what did it do different that COD: WaW didn't do? The detail in the faces in WaW was leaps and bounds better than "KZ2."

I saw nothing earth-shattering about "KZ2" and the 360 - only mentioned by both of you - was nowhere in my impression.

EDIT: Tell you what - create a thread about "Kill Zone 2" and only allow positive reviews if you don't want folks voicing their opinions.

you know whats been bothering me with killzone 1 ? they had those really bad ass looking helghan ..and they did nothing with it... no explanation barely any backstory nothing... well there was a lot more wrong with it but thats whats been bothering me the most.. the wasted potential....

and.. according to some reviews... its not going to be different in killzone 2 ..even though you are landing on their home planet ..the whole thing is going to be the usual black and white thing.. without giving further information on the hellghan.. so. . i said it before im going to be dissapointed in the singleplayer but will get it anyway for the multiplayer.. its just sad that they didnt make more out of the story ...if you are able of the german language and dont mind a review that has more spoilers than a tarsem singh trailer you can check it out on http://www.4players.de/4players.php/dispbericht/PlayStation3/Test/7144/62108/0/Killzone_2.html

Yes, but there are balanced opinions and biased ones... and your posting history makes it quite clear to me where you sit.

I think KZ2 looks good but would agree I've seen nothing amazing about it either.  It's the fact you consistently overpush the quality of 360 games vs underpushing PS3 titles that I'm referring to, therefore I don't actually believe your 'if it was 360 it would have gotten same treatment'... message.

You can't judge it based on three playthroughs! You need to try Alternate 2 AND Standard 1, with HUD and Crosshair on and off each time!

Played it nine times myself, including once in German.

Oh, and the graphics are intentionally "blurry", that is what real life looks like you know. Try staring at a wall opposite you. Your hand is blurry, yes? That's what they're doing. Play through it again, bearing this in mind. Also, put the brightness lower. Much lower.
