I thought the first was a bit poor, so I'm not really too fussed about this.
Heh, so have Sony managed to show any *real* in-game footage yet? ;)
I'm looking forward to Resistance 2 more...

Are you saying its fake?

Well not that its fake but up till recently all the footage was pre rendered and even the footage made using the actual in game engine was heavily altered i.e. colouring, lighting and stuff.

Yup. The 2005 trailer was pre-rendered "target footage", which people said the game would never live up to.
Boy, there's some Ostrich-sized egg on those faces!

If you weren’t sure about buying Killzone 2 and were banking on a demo first you’re all out of luck. In a bizarre twist of reverse common sense, Gamestop have sealed an exclusive demo for anyone that pre-orders from them.
Yep, if you’re sure about wanting to buy the game and put down your pre-order you’ll get a playable demo to help you decide whether or not, well, you get my point. Ridiculous. The demo will be made public (via the PSN) after the game is out…

Gamestop. How will this work for Euro? I want a demo and cannot have one now by the sounds of it? :confused:

Its always possible that we will get it with OPMHD but I dont know tbh. knowing SCEE we wont get one. Then again maybe it will be the same as with America were one retailer will get the rights which I think is unfair.

Its very unfair, would not be so bad if it was a international seller like Amazon! :mad:
I will probably buy it on day it comes out but it would have been nice to try first.

Just found the follwing article Stone. Looks like we might get it on the PSN but it might only be days before the release.
Sony has told Eurogamer that it will release a European demo of Killzone 2 through PlayStation Network, but cannot confirm exactly when, or what will be included in the demo.
However, a source close to the publisher told us that if it clears QA in time, the demo will almost certainly be released in Europe before the game.

Looks like its confirmed for europe for as a PSN release before the game arrived but still no date set yet.
SCEA's deal with GameStop (http://www.ps3fanboy.com/2009/01/05/killzone-2-demo-exclusive-to-gamestop-public-demo-after-game-re/) doesn't affect those living outside of the US. European gamers will be able to access a pre-release Killzone 2 demo on the PlayStation Store, no strings attached. SCEE didn't provide any specific dates, but told Videogamer.com (http://www.videogamer.com/news/06-01-2009-10296.html) that the demo will be released in a "normal manner."

This will be my 30th order from them. Every pre-order has come early by 1 or 2 days except for GTA which arrived on released date. Every game I've ordered from them thats already out has come next day as long as I ordered before 5:30pm.
I almost always use them now m8. There great. (Hmmm the frosties advert just flashed through my mind when I wrote that lol)

icestar is this shop genuine? is it in the uk - looks a bit iffy to me but £30 is a bargain if you ask me like you said some of your games come early :D I dont know - I do have a £5 credit in gamestation - how much do you think its going to cost in gamestation when released? if its £34.99 then im better off buying in shop right...?

There fine m8. I've used the plenty of times and so do most of my friends and none of us have had a problem yet.
Reason I rather order online is normally you'll get a better deal if you shop around and also alot of the time you will get the game a day or 2 eairler than release date.
There website design is not brilliant but there CS is so that makes up for it Oh and there prices most of the time are sweet :)
If you can get it from gamestation cheaper though and you feel safer doing it that way then I would surgest you do that :)

From Wikipedia:
On February 2nd, 2009, SCEE announced that a demo of Killzone 2 would be available to download from the European PlayStation Store from February 5th, 2009.[23] The demo will include the first two sections of ‘Corinth River’ (the first level of the game) and will also include the tutorial sequence from the final game.
A demo card, granting access to a Killzone 2 demo, was also offered to US gamers who pre-ordered the game at GameStop, and will be available for download on February 5, 2009.

The demo is on PSN now. Shame its only a single player campaign Demo but still its better than nothing.
In other news Killzone 2 has gone platinum in Europe before its even released -
Europe has done it again (http://playstation.joystiq.com/2008/03/15/gran-turismo-5-prologue-pre-orders-reach-1-million-in-europe-alo/). Killzone 2 has gone platinum in the region three weeks before it has even been released. UK newspaper The Guardian broke the news in an interview (http://www.guardian.co.uk/technology/2009/feb/05/david-reeves-sony-europe-losses) with SCEE president David Reeves; 1.1 million copies of Killzone 2 have already been preordered in Europe

downloading now , it seems sony are getting something right for a change , a demo of a huge title out nearly 3 weeks before release , well done Sony (for a change)
played through about 4 times , first time took some getting used to as i have been playing cod waw for ages and killzone is much slower pace (a bit like GOW if i dare say) , loved it though , found something dofferent to perfect each time , the game physics are the best i have seen , noticed after a few runs through if you just fire one round into a compressed gas tank it flys off and blows up , by my 4th run through , used to the pace , used to the controls , the graphics are the best i have seen on a console, it runs REALLY smooth, can't bloody wait for the game.

Gave it another go this afternoon.
Used "Alternate 2" for the controls (R2 fire, R1 grenade, L2 zoom, L1 crouch/cover), with "zoom hold" turned on and the x & y sensitivity turned up.
Much better :)

whether it will be any good is yet to be seen but I do hope it is as its about time the PS3 had a decent FPS as Resistance 2 just didnt do it for me.

My initial opinion is very, very good :D. All though it did as it seems so intense and realistic almost a real battle, hard bloody work :erm:……………So at a point of almost no enjoyment if that makes sense?
Had a quick go online and its very hard indeed nothing like COD which is good as very original. :angel:
So far I like. Long way to go in the game though. ;)

The MP is awesome but then again I dont have anything to compair it to apart from resistance which it blows out of the water imo.
I suck with the controller tbh and thats why normally I'd play an FPS on PC. That being said it still has me wanting to play it which is a first for online MP on the PS3 for me.
Most things cant be used until you have leveled up a couple times. After leveling up you earn stuff like the ability to make a squad or clan or new wepons and medic badges etc etc.
Will it last I dont know but what I can say it is alot of fun and seems to have really tackled the online MP very well but am no expert.
As you said Stone the Campaign is very hard at point's but thats what makes it more fun for me. Really really impressed with the campaign side of things.
Overall I'd give the game a 9/10 for an FPS on a console and from me thats alot lol. Hope you all enjoy it as much as I am :)

Have to admit the controls are not the easiest , have just been playing mp for a good couple of hours and am definately getting better :) , i am in this one for the long haul , slowly getting used to the maps and started hitting the head/ chest area rather than the legs or not at all :D

Change the controls. I hate the standard 1 and am using alternate 2 which is much better. Check them out in the options and see which fits you better.

If I've not already added you I will do later. Agreed about the aiming. Make's the game take some actual skill even though I'm still not very good and am rubbish using analogue for aiming lol. Do hope I get used to it in time.

Gotta say am hooked lol. I formed a Clan now but not for matches or anything at the moment just for friends etc etc (Might start playing matches in the future but not something am looking at for the moment). Some intresting things you can do in it like add news lol. Seems its been designed well to and very easy to use.
I gotta be careful when I get hooked on a good FPS it takes over my life :o: Still its all good fun for the moment just hope it does not get boring very fast like COD:W@W did and Resistance 2.

thx for invite , saw you were on tonight but your game was full , getting more and more used to this and getting more and more addicted , absolutely loving it and the contols are now second nature.
haven't ranked up again yet , had one aweful match and a couple of decent ones , 24 kills 10 deaths in the last one :) was please with that. This is finally the reason ( along with mgs4) to buy a ps3 imo Gears of war was why i bought a 360 this is potentially (dare i say) better (definately online).
Just wish there was co-op on the campaign but not managed to do any of that for a while , too addicted to mp.

Yeah I noticed you came online I tried to join your game but that was full to lol.
Gotta say I played a bit tonight and I seem to have gotten worse lol. Yesterday I thought I was gettting a handle on it and have to say I was not doing to badly but tonight I was hopeless. Its meant to be you get better the more you play but it seems to be the opposite for me but hay I still love it :)
Well done Sony/Guerrilla it seems they finally took the time to get it right :)
Another few things , i find it much better to always try and work in a squad becasue even though the mic is rarely used you can spawn on the squad leader (if he is alive).
GG also have a really good setup on killzone.com the stats are really good and one of the best features is the battle replays (a birds eye view of the battle).

I did however have an excellent couple of games tonight. I'll risk it and say I think am finally getting used to it :shocked: lol
60 points one round, I know thats not great but its good for me lol. Managed to rak up again. Need 400 odd for my next rank now :(
Unlocked the spawn grenade but not sure how you use it yet didnt really look but I assume its locked to a certain class or something ? I'll check tomorrow :)
It seems the new patch changed the controls , i definately think it is an improvement but unfortunately for me as i was so used to them before i couldn't hit a thing last night (maybe i should have cut quite a few beers out of the picture as well :) ) , anyway still really enjoying it , the controls are now much tighter and more 'instant'.

I played this game on MP for almost the whole weekend, so addictive. Once you start to rank the game comes into itself. Fantastic, really enjoying it now. :D
Went into your game Darkliquid you have ranked up fast!! I much prefer the bigger games though as I get more points it seems. Love the sentry gun!!!!! Gone back to being a medic now I have my sanitary gun medal as get much more points as a medic. ;)

Not sure how that will work as I have mnot ranked up to that level yet but just keep an eye on your radar and your scope which will turn red rather than green if its an enemy.
I would amagine you can only use it a certain amout of time or it might take a long time to charge back up but not sure. Guess we'll have to wait and see.
Also I would put it past us seeing some new maps and stuff in a couple months :)

Lol only with the shotgun, I can actually get some kills with that. My problems is I can do well in 12-16 man servers but when I join the 32 man I just get owned often even being pinned back to my own spawn.
I must admit since the patch I'm doing alot better but again thats only with 1 gun haha.
your good Stone. That game you joined me in the other days was not good for me I was getting a bit of a beat down lol but you came in and seem to do not to badly straight away :)

Lol I think you may be right there Stone there does seem to be a pattern begining to form haha ;)
the saboteur class is really good fun , love sneaking towards the enemy spawn and running towards the objective with the enemy and then killing them before they know what happened, makes you really paranoid about your own team though :)

Just got this today. It's my first PS3 game. Having to try and get used to the controller and the controls. I much prefer the 360 controller and the 'real' trigger you use to fire your weapons on the 360. I keep throwing grenades when I mean to shoot the gun. :(
Alternative 2 layout should help.

You can easily change the controls if you wish to do so.

yeah looking forward to the fixes/extra features , and also the new maps, haven't played anything else since release so have noticed a few of the exploits. Looking forward to the new maps on the 30th :) , the next patch is to be even bigger (i believe) working on friend invites and stuff according to the KZ2 forums. Lots of support from Guerilla Games in quick time , very impressed.
I got this game today with my PS3, is it any good? I'm going to try it out soon.

I'd say its the first decent online shooter for the PS3. Resistance1/2 was ok but nothing special. KZ2 is everything and more but am sure you'll make your own mind up :)
As bulkylad says the support is been top notch upto now. Good to see a developer looking after its customers/gamers/investers lol whatever you want to call us.
I'll have to try it out soon, I don't have a mic yet though so it may make the online experience a bit crap.

That is certainy not something I would judge a game by tbh. Seems a strange thing to think would make the game crap lol.
Nah, it's just I like to talk to people and when you don't have a mic you can't really help each other, can you?

Tbh i found that most of the time people with Mic's are idiots (no offence I have one to lol). Its good for with friends but the few experinces I've had with online games with audio chat on consoles have made me pretty much hate it.
They seem to be to busy swearing and they seem to love using racist language which I dont want to hear. But thats just my experince and I havent really given it a chance since. Never tried the Audio chat on KZ2 but I still really enjoy it tbh.
I just had a quick game there and it does seem like a great online game. It may take awhile to get used to the buttons though.

I find changing the controls to Alternative 2 works best for me but have a look and see what works best for you.
I bought it and compared to COD4 it's like running round in a fat man suit and getting shot a lot.

must admit , it takes much more skill to play than the COD series , controls have a much larger learning curve (you can't slam R3 from left to right it takes much more delicate movements) and controlled bursts on the rifles are a must.

The first DLC will also include 12 new Trophies for those that care(Myself not being one of them)
The upcoming "Steel and Titanium" DLC (http://www.joystiq.com/2009/04/21/killzone-2-steel-and-titanium-dlc-priced/) pack for Killzone 2 will also add 12 new Trophies to the game, all Bronze.
http://playstation.joystiq.com/2009/04/21/killzone-2-dlc-adds-12-new-trophies/
Also its been priced for the US at $5.99 so am guessing we'll get it at £3.99 or around that maybe £4.99 since we are in the UK after all which Sony seem to think are loaded.
Today we can also confirm that “Steel & Titanium Pack” will be available on the PlayStation Store next week (April 30th) for $5.99.
