A bit of Kojima-influence. But I don't mind if the cutscenes are as good as those seen in the latest trailer.

THE WORDS! They'll drift away without the _!
That seems like quite a lot for a shooter.

As long as it doesn't drag on, could be great.

Currently polling second in Australia's federal election (first in the Gold Coast), this feral may one day be your Bogan King.
To distract from the shitty gameplay?

Well, Uncharted 2 had 90 minutes if I remember correctly and many people where like "omg MGS" before release, and then everyone saw that the cutscenes were perfeclty implemented and didn't do anything bad to the pace of the game at all.

Of course Killzone 3 will probably be a shorter game than U2, but I don't think it will hurt the pace of the game at all. Let's say 10minutes intro (CG + In-game) and 10 minutes "last fight + outro" and only 50 minutes are left for the 6-9 hours gameplay.

Well if they give as much back story information as was given in MGS4 then I don't really have an issue with it. That said I don't really care much from the Killzone story.

if it's gonna be a whole 70 minutes, I expect to see some real character development

Rico needs to go from "holy fuck" to "what the fuck" to "this is fucked" to "fuck this" to "fuck yeah". I want to see some growth this time.

I have to say all the cutscenes have looked boring so far, they either seem to be filled with bad dialogue like "GET THE THA EVAC POINT ASAP!!!!!! THATS AN ORDER SOLJAH!!!" or filled with John Woo style arrows through the head

thanks snuggler.

Though if anyone is interested in actually clicking on the link:

Main Language: English
Distributor: Sony Computer Entertainment
Classified: 12/01/2011
Submitted runtime: 70m 0s
BBFC Reference: ADM275923

Oh noes! The game is only 70 minutes long!

Looks to me like the length of supplementary game footage given to the BBFC is 70 minutes long. As it's listed in conjunction with the actual game.
So there's probably game footage in that too.

Mountain, molehill etc. etc.
Though despite that it's probably 60 minutes cutscenes, 10 minutes gametime. Cinematic experience and so on

Wouldn't this include all the bad things that could happen during gameplay? I thought I remembered them discussing this on the Kojima Productions podcast.

More like Naughty Dog influence, since Uncharted 2 had 90 minutes of cutscenes and was considered GOTY everywhere.

this is listed specifically as cutscenes. the "bad things" that could happen in the game are also sent in to make the ratings though. In Killzone that might be as simple as a few headshots and rico saying fuck. Metal Gear always has so many little touches that they probably have to send in a lot of gameplay.

Bring it on. Going by the latest trailer the cutscenes look amazing.

I don't mind watching amazing looking cutscenes.
