[Independent_Charles]

i would get it if i was a rich man but meh

[JonDiskonected]

what do you mean??? its the public demo....meaning everyone can get it for free(maybe you have to have xbox gold???)

[Independent_Charles]

ha sorry i meant actually buy the game. havnt got money to spend on titles apart from the ones ill know will be good.

[sam2236]

Old news is oooooooold. It's been out almost a week now. Why did this get approved?

[JonDiskonected]

not for everyone, last week it was only for ps+ members, this week for everyone else

[sam2236]

Wrong. I could download it last week and I'm not a PSN+ member.

EDIT: Hell, check the date of when it was available, if you don't believe me.

EDIT 2: 21/07/2010 on the EU Store. Those 10 who disagreed are illiterate retards.

[PSFan100]

Sam is correct, it has been out for about a week, for free (not PS+ members) on the uk PSN store.

[Redempteur]

actually i'm on the french store and NOT part of psn plus and i got it last week too

[JonDiskonected]

Available in europe, but, NOT available in north america(will be tomorrow probably)

[Johnny_Cojones]

It's on Steam right now.

[JonDiskonected]

should have mentionned on the ps3

[crzyjackbauer]

first one sucked why the hell would they make a sequel

[orange-skittle]

Because they were trying to correct what they did wrong. It's a great story to be told and enough of a good story to warrant a motion picture featuring Bruce Willis and Jamie Fox. The 1st Killzone sucked but they made a Killzone 2 and we see how that turned out. There's a lot of sequels that turn out better than the original since it's a new IP. Lost Planet 2 dstroys LP1 and Red Dead Redemption is waaaay better than Red Dead Revolver. Your comment makes no sense and next time please think before speaking. It makes you look moronic.

[dirthurts]

I shall keep looking. Probably tomorrow. like a lot of people are saying.

[Johnny_Cojones]

If you have a Steam account, it's available there. Haven't checked anywhere else.

Played it and liked it, although the PC version running max 1920x1200 with 2XAA needs some optimization. Looks like they upgraded minor things in the engine but I still get 30 FPS max with a 285gtx, 6gig DDR3 tri channel ram with a core i7-920 cpu. Anyone tell me what the hell they think the problem is? So far I call bullshit on proper handling of the PC version.

[Johnny_Cojones]

I've had this preordered on Amazon for months. I saw the PC version listed at $39.99 & jumped on it. On top of that, I get the $10 credit towards another game. That's awesome.
After I try it out on my rigs, I'll let you know how it runs.
Currently it's DLing to my backup rig, which is a Phenom II 940@ 3.5Mhz, 4GB DDR2 800mhz, & a Gigabyte OC GTX 460 1GB. That is similarly powered to your rig in terms of gaming.

[megacheak]

That's interesting. I played the Xbox 360 and PS3 versions, and it seems that the game is in sub-HD resolution, but there is 60 frames per second. It seems that there 2xMSAA. Xbox 360 version looks better, there is SSAO ...

Ran it on both of my rigs with good results.

The one I describes, I ran maxed @60Hz with 4xAA & 8xAF, v sync, triple buffering, etc. Didn't get a fps count, but it ran smoothly.

Also ran on my main rig(i7 920@ 3.5Ghz, GTX 480 x2 SLI, 6GB DDR3 1600MHz) maxed @ 120Hz with 16XQAA & 16xAF, etc. Game looked great, ran great.

Looking fwd to this, as I liked the first one a lot, because of the story & atmosphere. Big Michael Mann movie fan, & this is likely as close as I'll get to playing a "Michael Mann" game.

[crzyjackbauer]

whos going to get fired for reviewing it this time

[CommonCent]

It would be funny if someone from Gamespot got fired again, while advertisements for the game flood the page.

[xX TriiCKy Xx]

Damn I just want to play the damn demo! Why the hell is EVERYBODY getting it before North America?

[drdre74]

demo is wack and the game is wack. Worst camera in any game I've ever played.

[drdre74]

Steam is wack for mac. You cant get the demo on there. They havent released anything new on mac just old stuff. I thought all games were suppose to come out on both at the same time?

[macka]

i was able to download this off the EU PS store last week AND im not a member of playstation plus. Is this just me or was it actually released last week on the EU ps store?

[zeeshan810]

WTF!?!!
ARE YOU SERIOUS! *checking now*

[PS360PCROCKS]

lame PS+ only right now.

[MicroSony4Life]

we want to be treated equally and not be fed left overs.

[zeeshan810]

yeah :( Don't worry guys we will download tomorrow. :)

[zeeshan810]

I can't wait to download this demo tomorrow from PSN. :P

Enjoy Xbox Kane and Lynch fans. :)

[Hades1337]

Wow, what an improvement over the original. The visual style is awesome and the game mechanics are sound. I could imagine that the visuals would get pretty nauseating after a while though. Still, one to watch.

[I HARLEM I]

............

[pimpmaster]
