Forums - Sony - GamePro anticipates near perfect scores for Killzone 2 across the board

I know we have too many threads about this game already, but I couldn't see hiding this aweseome little tidbit in one of the other threads.

From GamePro:

PlayStation Official Magazine U.S. gives Killzone 2 a perfect score of 10/10 and PlayStation Official Magazine U.K. gives the PlayStation 3 exclusive a 9/10. Regardless of the fact that the official PlayStation magazine is giving this PS3 exclusive a high score, GamePro anticipates near perfect scores across the board.  Aggregated Killzone 2 scores can be found at GameRankings.com and MetaCritic.com.

GamePro features editor Patrick Shaw has been enthusiastically quoted saying, "[Killzone 2] is the best action movie you've ever played." Senior editor Sid Shuman sincerely said, "Wow" when he first played the game a couple months ago. And I got into a debate with David Ellis of 1UP.com about which had better graphics - Killzone 2 vs. Resident Evil 5.

Killzone 2 is a PlayStation 3 exclusive and hits store shelves on February 27th. Check out GamePro's Killzone 2 hub for trailers, screen shots, previews, and features.

 

THE VERDICT by Travis Moses 

We're not allowed to post GamePro's official review just yet, but I will say that our review falls right in line with PTOM's. You can read it in GamePro's March issue, which hits newsstands in early February (subscribers should be getting that issue much sooner), or read it online February 2nd. Personally, I didn't review the game, but it's a f-ing epic shooter. My only qualm is with the lagged look sensitivity, which is usually a cover up for poor framerates. However, once you get used to the sluggish feel you'll be mowing down Helghast with ease.

Wasn't the "lagged" sense of motion intentional to lend a sense of weight to your actions and make it not as fast as COD4?

It is.  Some will get into it pretty quickly, while others will always prefer the CoD4 "camera on a stick" style of gameplay.



So...this means?....



Okay, now even I'm starting to get sick of all the Killzone threads :P

GamePro will probably give the game a 10 just like OPM, and they expect other sites to give the game similar scores.
