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...
