Is killzone 2 any good?

May be...
  • i only have 2 games: mgs4 and resident evil 5.



    i've gotten bored with mgs4, but having a blast with re5.



    i just want to know how the online multiplayer is in killzone 2. there's been mixed reviews.



    please rate from 1 - 5.



    thanks !!
  • There are mixed reviews cause people don't like the 'heavy' controls in it. Personally, I cherish the controls. It adds realism. There are hollywood style animations implemented, so if you run, the camera rocks left and right... Some people hate this and say it cause motion sickness... but it's really awesome.



    The campaign mode in this game is truly awesome. It's intense, filled with action and fast. The graphics as you might have heard are the best till date and better than any game I have seen. The detailing is truly remarkable. The story is good... nothing like MGS4, but still is pretty neat. Also, the AI is better than any other game I have played.

    Campaign receives 5/5.



    Online is also great. It's like COD4... but only with better graphics. The game features a ranking system like COD4 and you have classes. The awesome part is the Warzone mode... Here, the objectives keep on changing every 5 min... so once you are ask to protect a place and then suddenly the order changes to killing everyone... to assassinating a single member from the other team. It's seriously addictive and requires teamwork and co-ordination.

    The main problem is that the games require dedication. The leveling up process is slow... you get meager points per game (40-50...) and the levels range from 500... (still more levels are added for DLC). It takes time to level up.. so it's a little tough on newbies. But once one gets hang off it, it's pretty addictive.

    Online 5/5 as well as it's nearly equal to COD4 which is the industry standard.



    The only problem one can find in this game are the controls. But seeing that you have played RE5 and love it, KZ2 won't be such a big issue (RE5 has crappier controls than KZ2).
  • I have killzone 2 and i can say it's different. If you played the first killzone then you will be disappointed at first. There is no secondary fire, you can only hold ONE primary weapon and a pistol, you can't change characters you are stuck as Sev the whole time(i didn't mind but i do miss how you could change it up from the 1st game).



    But that doesn't mean that you won't like Killzone 2. The AI in normal and hard mode is very active meaning that they are on your a** a lot. The special effects and spectacular graphics make it look like your in the heat of battle. And the weapons are amazing (well some of them anyway, depends on preference i guess).



    Online can be put in one word: FUN. i loved it. However if you played Halo 2 and 3 online or COD:4 and MSG 4 online then you will find yourself critiqueing it alot like i did lol.



    I would give killzone 2 a 4 out of 5 because there were some elements that were out of whack. The story was good but not great. The audio and video were amazing ( i have a bose sound system and a 52" 1080p Samsung). I didn't like how they took out secondary fire ( i thought that was what made Killzone, Killzone). I also didn't like how you can only have ONE primary weapon. I had gotten used to both but it took awhile since i was really hoping that Guerilla would have added that in to Killzone 2. The enemies in killzone looked great and their AI was fun to play against.
  • Killzone 2 is COD4 on steroids!!! The campaign mode is really better than any FPS I have played (it's definitely longer than COD4). And the online is solid as well. As the other guy said, controls can be a hindrance initially, but once you get used to it, the game is really fulfilling.



    The ranking takes slowly... So you will have to play a lot to reach a respectable ranking. It might even be frustrating initially as sometimes you even wont have time to react, but still it's worth it as once you level up, there are perks and you really start enjoying it.



    Also the GRAPHICS!!! omg. The game bleeds from every pixel. The guns have awesome recoil and they look so darn real!!! You can even see the shadows of other people playing online in the game which has not yet been seen. This is indeed the best looking game.



    Campaign gets 5/5

    Online also gets 5/5.

    As the other guy said. It's tough for newbies, but once one gets hang of the controls and ranks up... it's a pleasure playing it.
  • Killzone 2 is like a decent game



    Compare to Call of Duty. You would have said that Killzone 2 sucks.



    Campaign in Killzone 2 is pretty good



    But once it comes to online it's really really slow like really you could have killed many people on Call of Duty than Killzone 2



    Anyways I rate it a 4



    Try the demo and see it for yourself
  • i'll be completely honest with you. I don't like killzone 2 because it's too much. 32 is much to handle. People spawn camp and if your saying huh?! when you get it you'll find out. All killzone 2 is, is a polished version of the first nothing special. i recommend if you like hockey NHL 09 that's all i play but i'd say... COD4 or Street fighter 4
  • i played the demo and like that guy said theres too much things like going on everywhere in that game but if your into it then cool.

    play the demo which u can download in the playstation store and have a tryout.
  • It is amazing. It is quite honestly the best game i have ever played with the best graphics i have ever seen. Great Story, Great Online, Great Game.

    5/5
  • I've never really played any other online FPS games before, but I definitley enjoy KZ2 online



    4/5 I guess
  • its got really bad sensitivity,
  • 10000000000000000

    online is so much fun!!!!

    the game is only 60 bucks and u get so much out of it.get it....NOW!!!
