Killzone 2


Recommended Posts

And I'm the one who posts irony? :laugh:

You're definitely not the brightest crayon in the box dude.

Anyways, hands on sounds good. Looking forwarding to seeing their review score.

How is what I posted ironic in the slightest? I don't like Eurogamer. This opinion has nothing to do with this hands on review, it goes back to poor reviews they have conducted in the past.

I posted this simply because it's on topic and provides another look at the game.

No need at all to start name calling is there?

Ouch

It's from the pre-alpha build instead of review, but it has that Sony dev guy (cant remember his name) walking you through it which is quite cool (Y)

They are leaving it a bit to be finalizing dates aren't they? Can't remember the last time we didn't know the date this close to launch.

Wouldn't complain with the 6th though :p

Definitely not, as long as it is all working great and they have fixed bugs/glitches/possible online problems (which I would assume the beta helped with) then I say give it to us!

Can't wait. :D

It has been rumoured plenty of times that we would be getting it early here in the EU, but I didn't know the rumours were of up to like 3 weeks early.

And ty the not going wild and making an official topic already, make it on the week of release, whenever it is confirmed, that way we will only get a few pages of general talking and then the game should be out so we can talk about the game itself, and say start talking about the game 30 pages in. :p

Chit-chat doing the rounds is Sony announced the 28th as the release date and now that everyone is trying to counter the KZ2 release with other releases (I believe Halo Wars hits 27th, and SF4 is also there, or around), Guerilla are going to pull the date back at the last minute :laugh:

Some conspiracy theory, but I'll be damned if I care, the sooner the better (Y)

However I think it might just be us Europeans getting it early, unlucky America ;)

No early release for us :(

Killzone 2 gets firm Euro release date

Sony has just announced that the Guerilla Shooter, Killzone 2 will release on February 25th in Europe which is two days before it will be released in the US.

Up until now, the Euro date has been somewhat a mystery with Sony only saying a release would be in the same ?time-frame as the US, so to learn the Europe will be getting the game earlier, is somewhat of a surprise.

However, it?s worth noting that games in Europe come out on a Wednesday, so expect a UK release on Friday 27.

Anyway, all?s well that ends well.

Well LBP released on a Wednesday, but that was down to the delay more than anything..I think it was originally planned to release on a Thursday?

Think it was down to the delay, as it was suppose to come out on a Friday 24th, Tomb Raider Underworld was Friday as was the new Prince of Persia.

And I'm sure many more, though I have noticed from looking at some release dates that the UK has sometimes been a day or 2 behind the EU release to be released on a Friday, how very odd.

Not that this has anything to do with Killzone, I was just being nit picky, lol.

Oh yeah not arguing games don't come out on friday, about 98% of the time they do.

There is exceptions though. Halo 3 came out on a Wedneday too. It happens a lot when they try to do a world wide launch (or at least in the west), so US gets it on the Tuesday as usual and we're in the future on Wednesday :p

It would be nice if they were all global released on the same day, and maybe its me, but a Friday is the best day so you get the week end to play it.

Plus it means people can't post about it beforehand, lol.

That and I only have an hours lesson in Uni, so when I have bought a game I could go home to play it. :D

Zomg Edit!

Here's some Irony for you.

Retailers say Killzone 2 hits UK on February 27th

Sometimes when Sony refuses to comment on something, there are others who will be happy to do so. In the case of release dates, retailers are the best people to turn to and, as Eurogamer have found out, tend to know when high profile games are likely to be released. Like Killzone 2 hitting the UK on February 27th, two days after certain other European territories. It's unconfirmed by SCEE, but these are the dates certain retailers have been "advised to expect" the launch.

This falls in line with the American release date, which is also February 27th. A demo is also expected to hit sometime before the game launches.

Guess what, its a Friday, lols.

    • When will the Photos app be updated to remember the window size and position when reopened? They addressed this issue in a 2024 version of the app (though I can't recall the build number). Unfortunately, after that specific version, the problem persists! Please prioritise this fix in your K2 schedule. Additionally, the Snipping Tool has lost the ability to capture the Windows Taskbar starting from the 2024 version!
    • Same, never saw it on Android or iOS. Guess only some people got it *shrugs*
    • Anthropic pulls Fable 5 and Mythos 5 after US export control order by Pradeep Viswanathan In April this year, Anthropic launched the Claude Mythos Preview frontier model with state-of-the-art cyber and coding capabilities for a select set of companies around the world. After preparing appropriate guardrails, early this week, Anthropic launched Claude Fable 5 and Mythos 5, its most capable AI models. Claude Fable 5 is for general users and comes with strict safeguards, while Mythos 5 is designed with fewer safeguards for cybersecurity and biology use cases. Today, Anthropic abruptly suspended access to its Fable 5 and Mythos 5 AI models for all customers after receiving an export control directive from the US government. The company received the directive from the government today at 5:21 p.m. ET, and the received letter did not provide any details regarding the national security concern. Anthropic understands that the government became aware of a method to bypass, or “jailbreak,” Fable 5, which might be the reason behind the directive. The order was issued under national security authorities and requires the company to suspend all access to Fable 5 and Mythos 5 by any foreign national, whether they are inside or outside the United States. The restriction also applies to foreign national employees working at Anthropic. As a result, the company has disabled both models for all customers to ensure compliance. Access to previous Anthropic models like Opus and Sonnet is not affected by this government order. The company highlighted that it had developed strong safeguards to reduce the possibility that Fable is misused for tasks related to cybersecurity. In fact, many developers are complaining that the safeguards are going overboard. Additionally, the company worked with the US government, the UK AISI, multiple private third-party organizations, and internal teams to red-team Fable’s safeguards for thousands of hours. Finally, Anthropic noted that no testers have yet been able to find a universal jailbreak on Fable 5. As expected, Anthropic disagrees that a narrow potential jailbreak should lead to the recall of a commercial model used by hundreds of millions of people. It warned that applying this standard across the AI industry could effectively halt new frontier model deployments. Anthropic concluded by mentioning that it is working to restore access to Fable 5 and Mythos 5 as soon as possible and plans to share more details within the next 24 hours.
