I've remained far, far away from this thread so sorry if it was mentioned forever ago...

Amazon finally added free release date delivery for Prime members.

Can US gamers try the demo yet without sacrificing $5 to pre-orders?

It takes about two minutes to make a Euro account and then you can play it under your US account.

Make an EU account. It only takes a couple minutes to do.

Is there wildlife on Helghast ? The official PS blog mentioned them, but are they visible in-game ? Also, I just noticed this morning that I can see my own footprints in the first demo level.

Just creepy crawlies. No gazelles with red eyes or a gorilla with breathing apparatus.

 

[Tom Penny]

So we're off input lag now and onto guns aren't futuristic enough?

They aren't . I heard one of the most powerful weapons is a slingshot. A freaking wooden slingshot in the future. How dumb is that!!!!

Opinion: i don't like plasma laser rifles of doom. I like diversity in the ironsights. I'd also like a bow that shoots effin TANKS.

 

[Tylahedras]

Slingshot eh? Sounds hot. Let me guess the Helgast need to be taken out before they can complete their secret weapon? The catapult?

You've obviously beaten the game already. Spoiler tag that!!!

Bububut, we are exploring slingshot in space travel:

I hear the last mission has the player running around planting C4 on said catapults. There's a timer so you need to fight your way to them before they launch their projectiles and all hope is lost.

Oops spoilers.

FUCK!!!!!!!!!

 

[PjotrStroganov]

Come on. Who hasn't seen that level yet? There are official pics of it released by Sony.

Okay.



Just spoiler tag it.

 

[PistolGrip]

Actually yeah the weapons seem very 20th century.. where's my helganator Guerilla!

 

[Dante]

Man.....I hope I can score an early copy....

 

[notjackbauer]

i like the relatively low-tech weapons. like battlestar galactica, it's the future but they still use bullets.

 

[fistwell_old]

I think that whole rubbing it in thing you're doing, it'd be less intolerable if you told us where you got it.
GIVE the people a CHANCE, goddammit.

Nice! Is that your copy? If yes, then congratulations on getting it early compared to when the official release date of Killzone 2 is!

 

[.nimrod]

Also, Elite mode is AWESOME! This game just gets better and better.

 

[Xater]

URO TRASH!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[Dragnet]

Can anyone repost the photoshopped cover that had the Playstation Network circle thing removed? That would be mighty nice

 

[lupinko]

Printed on cover.

 

[captive]

Dammit every time i see this thread it has a new title and i think its a new KZ2 thread.

I see its been getting very good scores, cant wait to buy it.
Is the official thread created yet?

 

[Kittonwy]

Its the highest "score" we have.

Edit: We give a reccomendation, rather than a score. Either Buy it (Must buy), rent/demo/borrow/etc it (try) ignore it (pass by) or burn it on sight (rather die).

It works for us.

10 out of 10 baconz?

 

[McBacon]

10 out of 10 baconz?

We'll call it a 9, but whatever, scores are horrible horrible beasts.

 

[Xater]

You'll have to wait three more days for that thread.

 

[McBacon]

Completed the first five sections of the first level on Elite. This is gonna be a tough playthrough!

Bacon you are a good writer. Great site btw.

BritishGaming - Killzone 2 Review

Also, Elite mode is AWESOME! This game just gets better and better.

From the review:

It’s a bold statement, but Killzone 2 has the best graphics on a console game yet. The only difference than when Gears of War held that honour or Far Cry 2 eked out as the victor; Guerrilla’s game won’t be surpassed any time soon.

Nice....now Im even more hyped...and their comments about the weight of the game being a good thing that no other shooter has pulled off failed to mention input lag or flicking...BG needs to read moar Gaf!

*barf*
Now why would you want to do that?

SCEE has proven again and again that they are retarded.

 

[Andronicus]

so bruce is the official thread goin up today?

 

[GQman2121]

Is there going be game launching from HOME on day one?

 

[KZObsessed]

Is there going be game launching from HOME on day one?

If there is then I will use Home for the first time EVER.

 

[Kittonwy]

*barf*
Now why would you want to do that?

What's on the cover?

 

[SolidSnakex]

Is there going be game launching from HOME on day one?

They haven't specifically said what the Home support will be. But in an issue of OPM the games producer said this

There’s a lot of interesting things we're going to be able to do. But we can't talk about it yet. Home is also very interesting. There's a lot of opportunity there, and it’s all part of our multiplayer strategy.

 

[Loudninja]

Ah nvm.

 

[Xater]

It's easier to sell a game at a store with a review score showing how great it is I suppose. I do agree that it kind of ruins the cover.

That's not a review score.

 

[GQman2121]

I think I actually prefer the PAL No Country cover to the NSTC one. I like the soldiers running from what looks like an impossible to defeat foe.

 

[Kittonwy]

That's not a review score.

I can't see any pictures at work, I'm just guessing.

 

[Fersis]

That's not a review score.

But what if it would? Think about it... :lol

Spoiler

Kittonwy post made no sense

 

[AmericanNinja]

Dont know if this has been posted or not you have been warned lol

Guerilla warns early Killzone 2 copies won't work online

It looks like everyone who bought KZ2 from eBay just got killzowned lol:lol

 

[xDEILGYREx]

Can someone point me to some actual HD screengrabs of the KZ2 demo please?
Not bullshots, user pics.
