Did you ever write a KZ2 preview? I'd like to know what you think.

My build never actually worked on my debug (and only mine, oddly enough; all the other outlets had it up and running fine), so I'm still waiting for one to come down (probably early next year) that may actually work. Otherwise, Killzone 2 is so powerful that it actually brokeded my debug!!
I figured there would be more than enough luv out there for general impressions, and when a review-ish build finally comes out and I can play through things from start to finish, then I doubt there'll be a force on this planet that can keep me from gushing about it.
[edit] ^^^^^^^^^ Or what he said, heh. Plus, it's worth it to just hear Greg's call from the future.
- The biggest thing in the article IMO is that there's a new girl named Chloe Frazer. GI asked about Elena and Sully's return but they had no comment.
- The story is about looking for the ships that Marco Polo "lost" while returning home to Italy.
- Melee combat is more dynamic now.
- They mentioned they were using only 30% of the PS3's power with Drake's Fortune and are planning to use nearly 100% with Among Thieves.
- A demo was shown to GI with Drake going through a city (I believe in Nepal), and he's stealthily taking out guards and escaping the city.
- Nolan North returns to be Drake and Chloe Frazer is played by Claudia Black (Stargate SG-1, Fargate).
- The Sixaxis mechanics were ditched for such things as throwing grenades.
- One of the weapons revealed is a rocket launcher that Chloe uses (might only be for the cinematic).
- There are no load screens.
- The score is being composed by Greg Edmonson (same guy from the first one).
- Weapons can be used in any stance (running, behind cover, hanging, climbing a wall, etc.).
- You can now move while aiming behind cover.

- I'm not sure how to explain this one so this is what it says:
"In Uncharted 2, every character fully interacts with the dynamic geometry moving around them, and environments in the background are real parts of the game world"
"If Drake's on top of a train, he's going to be shaking with the train as it moves around"
"As he gets inside, his moveset is going to change, and he's going to be a lot more secure because the wind's not blowing."
- The graphics look better than Uncharted 1.
- Button sequence cinematics such as the final boss have changed so now Drake is now fully controllable in these parts...I think (This one's also hard to describe).
- Climbing seems improved upon. You can climb lamp posts now among other new things.
- If there is an enemy patrolling a rooftop you're climbing a wall to, you can pull him off the roof while hanging on the wall.

Fuck. This was the only instance of Sixaxis that I enjoyed in ANY game. I really liked how I didn't have pull the camera upwards just to arc the grenade.

Who paid you to grab Dr. Pavel?
Agreed, well not the only one for me, but I thought the grenades were fun. I hope they have an option to turn it on.Jack Scofield said:

Awesome, heh.
And I'll have you know I've listened to every Podcast Beyond! Greg's call was indeed hilarious, tho it interrupted Jeff's KZ2 talk, who seems quite hot on the game!
Don't forget to talk about the online portion when you do your preview, if you get a chance to play it.
And back to Uncharted 2....
Those details are pretty much what I'd hoped for. New woman eh? I hope Elena kills her! hmpf

I'm actually glad they're getting rid of the Sixaxis control. They could keep it in as an option, but it did nothing for me, and made me avoid using grenades.

From the bullet points it sounds like they've focused on layering more dynamic interaction on pretty much all the main mechanics of the first game (climbing, jumping, shooting, cover, melee, cinematics et al). Likes what I'm hearin. Now about them puzzles...
