Anyone else got Killzone 2 coming this week?
 
Looks pretty darn sweet from the very short demo and a brief spell I had online with a mates beta test.

Hopefully mine arrives early from Shopto :)

scoobyverysoon 23 February 2009 02:40 PM

If I can find it for £25 I will get it but I also want resi evil and silent hill 5 and finally the new final fantisy :brickwall

DJ Dunk 23 February 2009 02:51 PM

Yep, I preordered from ShopTo as well :)

messiah 23 February 2009 03:54 PM

Also ordered from shopto - will probably arrive on Thursday too...

Iain Young 23 February 2009 04:38 PM

Was going to preorder via shopto, but they've stopped taking preorders due to high demand :(

After playing the demo, not sure it's worth the £39.99 that Game are charging...

You can still order the tin Limited Edition Collector's Box version for £32.99

DJ Dunk 24 February 2009 09:57 AM

True, but I wasn't sure it was worth £29.99 so I'm not paying extra for a "limited edition" tin that won't fit on the shelf :D

Ahhh, i see they've dealt with you before and are already prepared for your dodgy credit card details :D

Bravo2zero_sps 25 February 2009 09:21 AM

Is this the equivalent of GOW for the PS3?

It's okay, I used Iains card details :D

DJ Dunk 25 February 2009 10:34 AM

Now shipped from ShopTo, so should arrive a day early :)

Iain Young 25 February 2009 10:53 AM

Oi :D

StickyMicky 25 February 2009 01:12 PM

Must admit, this game looks like it will be ****en awesome! and i am a bit gutted i don't have a ps3 to play it on, the rest of the ps3 exclusives have never bothered me :)

P1Fanatic 25 February 2009 03:22 PM

Got a text this afternoon from shopto saying mine was shipped today to home and its signed for. Hopefully my trusty postie will do what he normally does and signs for it himself or gives it to the neighbor :)

Apparently peeps with the non collectors edition have already received theirs from shopto.

The mrs is preparing to become a Killzone Widow :)

DJ Dunk 26 February 2009 09:09 AM

Cool, it's sat on my desk this morning :) Hopefully give it a bit of a go later tonight when we get bored with House Of The Dead:Overkill :D

P1Fanatic 26 February 2009 02:57 PM

Mine best be at home otherwise Im not gonna be happy. Although I got football later so aint gonna get as much time as I like.

messiah 27 February 2009 08:39 PM

Played most of the campaign now after my copy arrived yesterday - thought it was going to get a bit repetetive a couple of levels in but it just seems to get better and better - graphics & audio are superb, very high production values throughout.

The PS3's Gears equivalent? Probably going to be bigger than Gears, it plays a little similar in that you have to use cover, but the action's intensity reminds me of the later levels in COD4 - it's relentless.

Certainly a contender for one of the best FPS's I've played.

Shaun 27 February 2009 11:40 PM

Community feedback on the net does not seem that great so far!

P1Fanatic 28 February 2009 07:17 PM

So hows everyone getting on? I went straight to multiplayer and must admit Im finding it hard. Struggling to kill people and my K:D ratio is about 1:1. I hope its just my laggy wireless connection which I should sort out with some homeplugs next week. But find the aiming difficult.

In all honesty, gears is overhyped crap. The cod's tho are a pretty good measure as a decent fps :thumb:

Still only 1 exclusive sadly, gimmie more to convice me Sony :p

Played it for a couple of ours on Saturday morning (campaign), got bored with it, and haven't tried it again yet. Not sure what all the fuss was about to be honest...

I pld a little then went straight online which I havent found that enthralling mainly cos I cant hit a barn door :) Will have to try a bit more of the campaign and see how I get on but definetly there is no wow factor at the moment. More a feeling of "if I play it a bit more it might better....I hope".

It's taken me a while to get to grips with the MP side of it - I too was utterly gash at first but started to find my feet last night as the maps become more familiar, some of them are massive, really massive.

Quite a nive little touch is respawning remote bots (think of the remote sentry guns from Aliens) that protect your spawn point to prevent spawn campers.

PeteBrant 07 March 2009 03:28 PM

Awesome game - Best single player FPS since the original Halo. Multiplayer is good, not great. But there are some nice touches.

Not sure about that. I played the first few levels, got bored, and haven't felt the urge to go back and try it again yet. There are much better fps games (from a single player perspective). Very disappointing :(

RB5-Black 08 March 2009 03:19 PM

So is it worth a punt at £30 ?

not played much on PS3 so really want this to be a game I play a bit !

Iain Young 08 March 2009 06:20 PM

Honestly, I'd say wait until you see it cheaper. I got it for £29.99 and I seriously regret spending that much on it.
