so i have had killzone 2 since tuesday night and have been playing it non stop.

i put 12+hr into Killzone 2.

so the + will be first for the game.

-----Killzone 2------

+the online setup (game modes/game options/abilitys) are second to none.

+the visuals are the best seen on any of the next gen consoles.

+the online looks just as good as single palyer.

now the -

-----Killzone2-----

-the controls.these have to be the biggest step back for fps control on console gaming.aiming is the biggest chore ever in a shooting game.not so much in the single play but boy online its hard to stay on a target.this is coming from a person who comes in the top 3. it really about how you dont really aim,i think its more like swinging the gun across the screen.also no matter how much you mess with the sensitivity it wont fix the problems.

-see above this is really the biggest issue in the game and one that i dont think should be over looked because of hype and people wanting to love the game because its on there console.

-the single player really didnt make me want to continue playing. its just your really standard WW2 shooter in a different setting.

all in all the killzone 2 does enough in the online department to be considered a big step up from what everyone ells is doing.but in the end it falls behind the call of dutys and halos of the world.the controls and the amount of shots it takes to kill someone is what really hurt this game.

Rating: --$$$-- 3 out of 5 money signs.

no need to flame these are my opinions and shouldn't be treated as nothing more.

I will try to put simple :

1/ have u, at least, finished the campaign to make a judgement ?
the gameis supposed to improve greatly at the last part.

2/ u have already stated ur opinion in a recent thread and u were bashed to hell : people dont care about ur opinion so I m not sure why u continue to post since people want to hear "KZ2 best game ever" and not "KZ2 is average"

3/ there is already a KZ2 official thread ...
(how many times do we need to say it ?)

4/ well, good luck to you ;)

The aim and swinging really turn me off with this game. I don't expect this honeymoon period to last long. KZ2, for all it's glory, has decent graphics but gameplay leaves much to be desired. Online is pretty decent fun, but aiming seems to be a bit off.

The aiming makes me crazy! Something will be running around right in front of me and I still can't hit it. It seems like an unnecessary hindrance to gameplay. It's not "realistic", it's just plain annoying.

Other than that it's been a pretty solid game so far.

Thanks for your review ECC. :D

I'll try to look for more gamer reviews 1st before decided to buy this game or not.

Like I said in your first impressions thread, think skin, if you have a real opinion and the masses get into the hype they'll come down on you hard.

With regards to the controls...everyone was expecting COD style controls. But you cant have that for every game! And if you have ever handled a real gun before you'll notice it doesn't have a target lock :P

I agree 100%

Speak the truth!

Agree,Futuristic Nazi's

It is indeed good online setting,but the gameplay is horrible.

YES THE SHOTS,Omg is this Gears 2 half a clip to down someone (If you even hit them)

Not to discliam your review, everyone is entitled to an opinion. :)

Controls become second nature after a few sessions. I like them now, But they did almost make me want to stop playing after the first round. Just give them a chance, every game has a learning curve.
