Guys i just wanted to say last night i watched 2 and a half men and everytime it went on a commerical it said :

2 and a half men are sponserd by Killzone and then u see some awesome action :oo

The ads and marketing in Sweden is really off the roof i cant remmeber any game having it like this..

I was also watching that program I dont think that they are making that much commercial if you compare it with Wii fit, Mario Galaxy, Zelda, Wii, Motorstorm and others games that got commercials here in Sweden.

They actually did a good job marketing. I mean, look at this ad in Amsterdam:

I also seen TV Ad's [The bullet one] on MTV every 30min on Saturday night and some people have seen the Ad when watching UFC

Battlefield Bad Company 2 > Modern Warfare 2

In my city, there is basically no kind of advertising for KZ2. Even the gamestop only has one poster which is pretty pathetic to be honest. I have seen a few commercials on tv but they are few and far between. I was watching the UFC event satarday night and it had a couple adds. Other than that not much.

I hope my 360 doesn't RRoD

Hey!

So we got this 30 sec awesome trailer that was posted a while ago..

We also have rumors of a DLC hopefully.. XD

But how is the marketing going where you are? Have you experienced anything or seen anything about Killzone 2?

Heres mai story :

So as usally i take the bus to my school. I get out to the station where there are like 3 places to stop. At each 3 on the left window u see a poster of Killzone 2, I was like ..:O COOL.

Today on my way home i went to the town.. or what you call it and there was litterly TONS of posters and the demo was playable in GAME with preorder offers and a freaking paper helghast dude. Everywhere u went u saw posters of Killzone 2! IT WAS HEAVEN !

HAs anyone else experienced this in their city?

Sony Marketing is horrible where I live. There was a commercial that wasn't even 30 seconds that was all movie and no in game action. It didn't even make sense really. Sony finally decided to put something up, but it still isn't good enough. I bet if it was MGS5, they would work on the commercial.
