Killzone 2


Recommended Posts

I've had a playfire account for some time now, applied for the clan and preordered the tin at shopto so fingers crossed should have it at launch. Might even still check the local independant retailer for copies a few days before though.

Hmm... I don't seem to be an household name here - no one mentioned me in the "I need to hide behind..." phrase... ok, ok, if I only lurk I don't get noticed - I get that. But at least a lurk a LOT :o!

Nah, I dunno, I have never finished lower than top 3 in every COD4 game I have played (I was pretty much only playing tactical games and TDM - I SUCK at DM - glad it's not in KZ2 afaik, or at least the focus is elsewhere). I believe I'm going to do fairly well in KZ2 as well :) but time will tell :p

In the mean time, I need to finish Valkyria Chronicles before KZ2 hits >_<

We'll get some console fps practice this weekend with halo :p (are you in btw?)

The controller pre-sets and options are posted here for those interested.

You can change whether or not iron sights are hold down / toggle, the same goes for crouching too (in MP anyway). There's also an L1 iron sight / R1 fire scheme for those who prefer it.

Interesting presets. Although I really wish we were able to customize it.

I'll probably be sticking to alternate 2 since that's as close as what I have set for R2.

I suspect Alt2 will be very popular for multiplayer. With crouch toggle enabled too.

I guess you leave me no choice.

I'll be using the Alternative 2 setting for sure - melee on R3 is a must for me. Same as sprint on L3. The rest I can manage to be different, but I have gotten really used to those two buttons...

What's everyones sales predictions for this?

I think

Safe: 2-3 million WW

Expected if all goes to plan: 4-6 million WW

There's a lot of money going into the advertising of it, it's getting good reviews and it's part of the arguably the most popular genre, FPS. I'm sure the :drool: graphics will draw in people as well.

To be fair, all my gaming clothes don't actually mention they are from a game on them :p You need to have played the game to know. I get asked all the time wtf the companion cube is :rofl:

...SO WHEN IS THER GOING TO BE A DEMO ????

US gets the demo on Feb 5 only if you preorder it at gamestop.

The public demo is Feb 26, and I think this is the same case for EU too but I'm not 100% sure.

Even though I can and will get by using Alternate 2, not having fully customizable controls for any Modern FPS IMO = Fail. (N)

I seriously just do not get how a developer could not let the user pick whatever they want when it is a possibility to allow them to do so.

Super Bowl commercial, courtesy of Gamespy via Kushan's BFF @ Hiphopgamershow.com

You mean Kushan's the source for this???

But anyway, if true, damn, finally some smart advertising. That's definitely going to improve sales :yes:

However 52 seconds is an odd time for a commercial, it doesn't look THAT professional in some places and it's on the hiphopgamershow website :/

30 Days of Killzone: The comic that never was?b>

What you see above is a piece of promotional art for the Killzone comic that that never saw the light of day. Set to be published by DreamWave Comics (the same company that brought out those kick ass Transformers and GI Joe comics a few years back) issue #1 wasn?t able to make it to store shelves before the company?s 2005 bankruptcy.

Would it have been any good? Hard to say, but having comic veteran John Ney Reiber on for the scripting was certainly a hell of a good start. Hit the jump for the intended cover art for issue #1;
