Unbiased Killzone 2 Retail Impressions

February 27th, 2009 Believer 2410

In this day and age there are very few things worth noting.   No one expects miracles anymore, only the normality we face each and every day.  Well today, on this day, Killzone 2 has changed this, not just for me, but for everyone.  Gamer, non-gamer, young and old Killzone 2 will leave an immense and earth shattering  impact in it’s wake.

I can only think of three historical events that will forever be passed down through the generations.  The creation of the universe, the evolution of mankind, and the release of Killzone 2.   You will forever remember where you were this day and will share this moment with your children and grandchildren.  There will be school textbooks and college courses that cover all aspects of this game.  Today will become a holiday celebrated across the world.  There is no going back folks, things have changed forever.

Let us not forget one other aspect of this truly historic event.  The day it truly began for the Playstation 3.  It is now the Bible of video games.  To call it anything less than that is a disservice to both the Playstation and Killzone 2.  The tides have turned my friends, make sure you are riding the right wave in.

These are my impressions based on playing through the first level and I may have a full review up someday.  Though I’m not sure how I could possibly give this game a review score.  Even a 10/10 would be an injustice to what this game truly represents.

Stay tuned to SDF for more information on this historic event.

Heaven on Earth, Killzone 2 is released.

This is what PS3 owners will experience upon opening Killzone 2. The greatest video game… no, the greatest piece of art the world has ever seen. Bravo Sony, bravo.

In Ken K we trust.

Sony Defense Force yay !

lol btw if anyone wonders, the music is from the hitman games :P you don't forget that music easily.

Jeez, I'm a PS Fan myself but this is just waaaay to fanboyish to be true.

Amazing how a site called 'SONY DEFENCE FORCE' gives a PS3 Exclusive 10/10.

MGS4> KZ2 anyday.

LOL!! OVER DRAMATIC! This deserves an Oscar!

Are they the one behind the MGS4 review gif?

I too would give KZ2 a 10/10 but this is really bad fanboyism. Lol but rather funny.

Let's not forget, SDF is a joke website.

thats probably what im going to do if Square enix released Final Fantasy VI on Ps3 , but not killzone 2 , but well see im going to buy this game cause i liked the demo alot =]

yea XD i laughed when i saw the vid.

@hippysnake

itsa joke website & has been found to have been made by a 360 fanboy in a way "mocking" the desperation of PS fans

but their a great laugh!

 Well, it's easy to explain why: reviewers have watered down a 10/10 rating so much that it really means nothing anymore, other than it's the best game of the month. In a system where 7.5 is average, and 9s and 10s are thrown around like candy, of course you can't give a game that you think stands above the rest a standout score. But I don't think it's a 10. There is no game, nor will there ever be a game, that is a perfect 10. People who enjoy the type of game something is universally can not find flaw in what a 10 should be. I am an RPG fan, but yes, I can find a flaw in every single RPG I play. Now, if 5.5 were an average game (the average of 10 and 1), which it should be, a great game could be given a 9.5, and really stand out. But alas, numbers are so inflated that it can't be done anymore. All that can be done now is giving games that a reviewer has a vendetta against, low scores. Thus, they seem "horrible", not even able to get "average". But that's another topic...

For the record, I've not played this game, nor is it my style of game. Thus, I'm not going to say whether it's junk or the best shooter ever yet made. All I say with conviction is that it is not a perfect game.

EDIT: Double post, ignore this.
