If it wasn't a problem in the first game, I doubt it's going to be an issue in THE THRID GAME TO USE IT.
Given that Guerrilla Games is found in the Netherlands, I don't think it's that big of a deal or that they have worked something out. Also the typical logo found in Norwegian post is different and the same one as the Swedens Posten.

This is so untrue. The new Norwegian postal service logo was released like 2 monhts ago, and the ISA had this logo back in Killzone(2004). I know this because I live in Norway.

Well, I think they're both kind of similar to the Marathon logo, which is much older...
EDIT: AND I JUST REALIZED...Marathon is kinda like the prequel to the HALO series. So killzone is copying halo. I'm so kidding.

Anyone here ever got into design? If you did you would know that there are hundreds of similar logos, that no simple shape such as this one here is exclusive to a brand or company.
What surprises me the most is, who in the world approved this irrelevant article? I can give you 100 more like this one in a minute. Anyone can.

Don't you get confused when some strange official looking truck is coming up your drive, or do they properly warn you? What happens when they use up all the nice aesthetic logos, and they get stuck with skulls, hearts, and knives?! Norway post gets really cool, that's what.

13.2 - Huh?
I live in Norway as well, and I can't say I've noticed that they change logos that often... You might be right, but considering the fact the Norwegian government spent about 300 million Norwegian Kroner on the whole new interface and general design/layout for the Norwegian postal service - including the logo itself, I wouldn't think they would change it again that soon.
I noticed this myself when they first released the new logos, and told my mother who got a good laugh from it. Also, there is supposedly at least one quite famous company in the UK using a logo that is even more similar to Posten's... 300 million NOK is a lot of money, and if some designer douch thought he could get away with copying someone else's work, this is a bit of a rip off. (don't think that is the case, though..)

14 - It's right as other norwegians have pointed out here...
This logo is part of a new redesign of the norwegian postal service image. I thought it looked familiar but couldn't really remember where I saw it before.
Doubt it will have any impact on either KZ2 or the norwegian post office. Still think it's a stupid redesign, doesn't make you think of post at all.

Do you think pp, theMART, nasim are all really MODs who do this stuff to bring up the site hit count? I mean, one of the reason a lot of us keep coming back is that someone on here REALLY pissed you off and you are just waiting for news to prove them wrong.

That's like saying your game copied the arrow sign. I don't think government agencies can copyright anything. I doubt the norwegian government will sue Gurella games. If they do...then NOrwegians are desperate for money.
