Killzone 2 Review

Seriously guys, do I look good in green?

Good news PlayStation 3 owners! Finally you have something to spend your money on, besides Barbie dolls and anti-depressant. Its KILLZONE 2, a game that's eagerly watched development since the Olsen twins. Since this review focuses on the campaign mode, I should probably explain what the hell is going on. The first Killzone was about defending your world from evil alien scum, The Helghast. This installment, your taking the fight to their home planet, Helghan. I heard it's pretty nice this time of year.

I'm very happy to report that all the major problems from the first Killzone has been fixed. The A.I. is much smarter and all the weapons has a convincing and impressive heft to it. There's an attention to the details that puts part one to shame. Also I like the new gameplay elements. Killzone 2 limits yourself to use one major weapon at a time. Though is sound like a big pain in the ass, but it actually encourages you to try out new weapons and increases strategy.

The graphic aren't the exact match to that in the 2005 trailer, but believe me, I'm not complaining. subtlety, vivid texture and a tons of lighting effects, combining with the best looking next gen. Period.

The campaign mode lengthwise has a standard 8-10 hour ball park, or you can a bit more if your playing the hardest difficulty. The only complaint is that Killzone 2 should have a co-op experience, since your A.I. squad often drop the ball. What about the online multi-player you ask? Does it really lived up to its hype? Well good news Sony boy fans. The online online player is better than expected. I'm not going into details, but its definitely worth the experience.

With the single player and online multi-player mode, this game is a definite must-buy. What better way to show off your PlayStation 3 to your friends when playing Killzone 2. Man, war has never been so beautiful.. Killzone 2 gets 5 little Helghast out of 5...

Top 10 Bald Men

NO. 10

Star Killer from Star Wars: Force Unleashed

Platform : Multi-Platform.






Jedis are cool, but bald jedis are better! Trained by Darth Vader himself, this secret apprentice masters the arts of dark Sith. Wielding a light saber around with long hair isn't as masculine as it looks. You think Sephiroth make it look easy?




No: 9


Matt Hazard from Eat Lead: The Return Of Matt Hazard


platform : multi Platform





Matt Hazard, a washed up gun slinger and a game veteran. Not the most original shooters around but every time he goes out, guns blazing and ass kicking, watch out! It's HAZARD time!






No 8.

Cole McGrath from Infamous

Platform : Playstation 3







Once a bike messenger for Empire City, now curse with an electrical superpowers that can controlled and summoned at will. Cole is a force of nature not to be reckoned with.





No. 7


Tyson Rios from Army Of Two

Platform : Multi-Platform








War veteran, weapons specialist, ideal partner in need. Working for a private company, rolling in the big bucks and jewel encrusted machine guns makes any mercenaries wanna blow a hole in your head. Air Guitars for all!


NO. 6


Sgt. Nathan Hale from Resistance


Platform : Playstation 3





Shooting aliens is one thing, being infected with Chimera virus is another. Sgt.Nathan Hale only knows one thing, shoot and blow anything that has a mouth bigger than its head.



NO. 5


Emperor Scolar Visari from Killzone

Platform : Playstation 3









Emperor Scolar Visari, a visionary, a patriot, vicious and a fascist ruler of the planet Helghan. Commands the legions of vast Helghast army, breaking his rule will bring you down with an iron fist. Be afraid.. be very, very afraid..



No.4


Crypto from Destroy All Humans.

Platform : Multi Platform









Ok ok I never did say this list is for human, but DAMN this bad-ass alien sure know how to destroy any life force in the planet. Armed with array of weapons, customized UFO and a bad impression of Jack Nicholson. Never Mess with this Furon. Anyone can say "Anal Probe"?



NO. 3


Dhalsim from Street Fighter

Platform : Multi-Platform








After a couple of decades passed, bald hair fighters are never a bore. Able to project fire from his mouth and the ability to elongate his arms and legs, no wonder Ryu and Ken crapped in their diapers.




NO.2


Kratos from God Of War

Platform : PlayStation 2 and 3






Meet the most angriest, no scratch that, most FURIOUS and hate-filled man in the industry. Once a Captain in the Spartan army, now a mad man wielding the power of the Greek God Ares himself. Driven by vengeance, blood thirsty for death and destruction.




NO.1



Agent 47 from Hitman

Platform : Multi-Platform.







What better way to kill a guy without knowing he is around? Disguised as a bar tender? A clown? Mechanic? A Jedi? A pool cleaner? A delivery guy? Agent 47 has done it all. Knowing you are already dead as soon as he leaves that door. Mission complete.. Next!!

If life was like a video game...

Lets face it, real life is boring.. what video game taught us that living in the virtual world can be a hoot. Here's a few things/abilities that what we should have in our everyday life.



Mini maps in your HUD.

As seen in : Medal of Honor, GTA4, Infamous, Mass Effect etc.

purpose : location location location




Forget having GPS in your expensive phone, or a mini map in your pocket. in a blink of your eyes, you can see where your are, where your going, traffic update and side missions. (?) Comes in handy when your out of town of finding your lost contact lenses in Bandar. Mini maps are a way to go!!


Double Jump

As seen in : God of War, Devil May Cry, Rachet and Clank

purpose : sports







Ever wonder trying to beat anyone in any sports? Now you can! With the double jump ability, you can head the ball higher than Peter Crouch, dunk Yao Ming over his face, never won a hurdle before? see what i mean?






Experience points

as seen in : Final Fantasy, Prototype, Marvel Ultimate Alliance, Fallout 3

Purpose : Studying or working



Tired of reading books just to make you smarter? Frustrated of practicing that free kick that never seem to be going right behind the net? Why not have experience point? just accomplishing set goals will get you instant XP. just choose either upgrading your intelligence level, physical endurance, focus abilities, you name it.

Devil May Cry 4 Review

yup.. its needs to be pulled out..

The Hack and Slack business seems to be on demand this days, demons and monster are popping out like a boy who just reached puberty. Well I guess some one needs to get their hands dirty and who else will clean the crap bags non other than the Devil Boy himself.. but not this sequel. You step in the long boots of Nero. A grey haired, metro sexual orphan raised by the Order. Not much none of his past, or how did he got his demonic right arm.. a cold resemblance of a younger Dante. Sound like a cut-and-paste basis for new character. (Can it get anymore original?) Seriously, where did he came from?

As any hack and slash game base genre, everything is as fast, agile and insanely riveting. Playing Nero is as identical as the Son Of Sparta, except for the demonic arm. You grab, throw and solve puzzles thoughout the levels. Boss levels are impressive as the level themselves. Fluid animation, bright colours and fast paced. Story lines are as long as the cutscenes for both Nero and Dante. ( Metal Gear Solid 4 anyone?)

Playing Dante, on the other hand, doesnt have any demonic arm to begin with, but has a repertoire of weapons. Other than his trusty Rebellion, and his dual guns, Ebony and Ivory, which brings a good mesh of crazy combos when youve master the trigger happy fingers. On the gen games, you dont have to go to a checkpoint to change weapons, with a quick press of a button on the D pad, you change your weapons in real time. Ultimately increasing your combos to a the next level. Awesome...

Devil May Cry 4 maybe a next gen game, but some what has a last gen gameplay, just adding top notch next gen graphic and in high definition. However, for the Die-hard Devil May Cry fans, (like ME!!) its a definite must buy game. Devil May Cry 4 is worth 4 Demons out of 5..
