That flamethrower looked......interesting?

Foliage - 385 days 23 hours ago

Reality might be a bit disappointing, but that is how an actual flamethrower would look. The common representation of a flamethrower in video games would not be operational for more than 5-10 seconds.

I agree

I was about to address that same thing.

Realistically, that is the best interpretation of the flamethrower gun in a videogame period. People have to keep in mind that most of the weapons (not all) in Killzone were meant to have realism in mind

Perfect release date. Right when everyone who is getting a tax return will receive it. I watched the special last night and they said you you can make bets on Death matches for there version of money which you can use to upgrade weapons and equipment. I think that is awesome. I'm gonna leave someone with Rabbit ears for pockets.

I just pre-ordered. I can't wait to get this game...

Depending on what games I get for Christmas, there is going to be a game that gets set aside for this one on the 27th.

I know there is a lot of hype for this game, but it sure seems well deserved.

because they both involve some kind of electricity they're both really powerful (one more than the other) and finally they're both wicked awesome weapons

EB Games in Australia has the Killzone 2 release date
as the 26/02/2008, so EU would be pretty much the same
i would think since we usaually are Europe when it
comes to game releases

You honestly don't think this is a system seller?! This game is like a 360 fanboys wet dream.Muscle men carrying big guns with gorgeous graphics? I'll have to beat POG with a stick to get him off this game..

No but seriously lol.Go to a video on youtube or Gametrailers and look at the comments."Im buying a PS3 for this!" Etc,etc.

This is a 100% system seller.

Although I dislike your tactics (or lack of tactfulness) I must agree (to a certain degree). Fans need to understand we're not talking about an established franchise here, we're talking about a game that has a lot to prove. This isn't no MGS4 game that's coming up, this a follow-up to KZ1, and we all know how that was received (plus the whole CG fiasco). I would rather count the chickens after they hatch then cry wolf. Will it sell systems? Yes. Will it sell systems like MGS4 did? No, not at first. But as the word spreads, and maybe price cuts, well you know the rest. On the other hand, if it does sell systems like MGS4, I'll eat that humble pie. Better that way then the other. Oh, and happy, could have done without the 'get real' part.

@bviperz

I definitely think Killzone 2 has the chops to move consoles--IF Sony markets the hell out of it. I'm talking Halo-style marketing campaign--posters, tv spots, movie theatre spots, displays in Best Buy and other major retailers--the whole nine. I seriously hope that a majority of the millions Sony has set aside for it's 2009 marketing campaign is going towards this game.

But even if that's not the case, I definitely see Killzone 2 selling by word of mouth in the weeks and months after it releases. I mean, the original Halo moved more games and consoles two months AFTER it's release than it did on release. The key there is that those who buy it and enjoy it need to spread the word. Go to Gamestop or similar stores and talk the game up, assuming the atmosphere of the store allows for such interactions. I can't tell you how many times I've at least rented a game because I overheard or conversed with other customers at Gamestop talking up particular titles.

and in my personal opinion I feel they surpassed the CG video of 07. Remember that it will still look even better in a large HD screen. Every time we get closer to the release thye show something even better than before so the final product should impress everyone. 09 is shapping up to be way better than 08.

Take a gander at the multitude of videos and pics. You will see a lot more definition to details (even the little stuff is sweated) then you see in RE5. With a lot more color.

pp mode ON again: that entire thing looked so fake, maybe Sony will beg Microsoft to take this game from them, and hopefully it'll work on REAL hardware

*Microsoft attempts to make this for the 360 and fails, it causes a chain reaction that destroys the world*
