It's a great game, but I didn't love it. I loved the first one, as did all my friends. We used to play all the time. The 2nd one nobody could really get into.
That being said, there is nothing you can do to justify it being called 3 games in one. If that were the case then you'd be counting SP and competitive as 2 games. That means just about every shooter in the past years is 2 games in 1. Yeah the co-op is different, but it's not different enough to call it a different game.

Quick summation of the review from Gameplayer:
+Eyeball searing graphics
+Intelligent, reactive A.I.
+Innovative FPS cover system
+Solid, addictive multiplayer
-No co-op, 'meh' voice work
Super slick presentation and a rollercoaster ride to boot. Killzone 2 is a must buy title.
9.5

Actually you did because i say that 88/100 wasn't a bad score at all,and that giving a lower score to game even if the score is not bad at all isn't good.
Is the horrible way they use to give that score what make me mad.

It has been pointed several times,from comment like "" Resistance suck since all we want to do is play Gear or War"",to do crappy and unfair comparisons like the Halo 3 vs Killzone 2 AI comparison,made with an early demo of Killzone 2 and a finished version of Halo3.
The problem is that many journalist have preference which is ok,since we all have them,but when you are going for a review on a site,you most put those away,other wise the score sill suffer,it could work out in 2 different ways,either a mediocre or regular game getting a score higher,or a great or good game receiving a bad score,things like this should not be tolerated,but since the industry is under the pay who will say sh**,in fact one of the things i complain about was that MS did send a tons of Halo 3 paraphernalia to the media who was doing reviews,is not ethical to do this by any company it ruins the integrity of the Review,after all those reviewers are pay with money and all have 360's,is not like they obligatory need a Halo special edition 360.

"In our opinion, Killzone 2 has managed to avoid becoming a victim of the hype, but we still think itll be bashed by the same narrow-minded naysayers all the same. To those people, we say: experience it first (play, not YouTube), express your amazement afterwards."
Niiiiiice.

:lol whatever dude, their words matched what the score was. 8.8 is a great score

Mostly well written and reasoned review from Gameplayer. Lets see what the other sites give KZ2.
@the EGM-"Bias"
I don't want to say that they are biased, I don't judge that, but as private persons they play their 360 obiously a lot more. Like they said XBL is like a social interface for gaming journalists. Some of them said that they have like two or three persons on their PSN-friendslist which seems to be a bit strange in comparison...
However, these were just some US-journalists and they are still able to judge PS3-games for their real quality I guess. But I'm sure that it's is not a disadvantage for MS to make journalists dedicated XBL-users...

5= below average
6= Average
7=Above AVerage
8= Good
9= Excelent
10= So goo you're going to cry from joy
At least that's how I've always seen it. Still .. I don't see why anyone really cares what a random German site is giving the game. Especially with an 8.8

So whats the poin of 1 2 3 4? Why not just go out of 5 instead of 10?Fenderputty said:
In regards to reviewer biased, I actually agree it strongly exists and most of the time it's anti-sony. It almost makes a mockery of the video game industry, in that it's so apparent just about everywhere. Like the famous quotes and what people say... "subtle beauty" give me a break.
That being said I never go ahead and say "lost credibility" unless they truly have been slacking. I love it when a bad review comes out and immediately that source is no longer credible, yet weeks later they'll give a good review to a game and all of a sudden they count again.

@ Tormentoso
You do realise that the very tone of your posts will likely encourage those seeking to criticise Killzone 2; you are doing yourself and the game no favours. I suggest you actually play the game and return back with valid opinions.

Wait.. how do you know they're still able to judge PS3 games for their real quality? Because they're from the US? Because their scores can be matched up to other review sites, who presumably have been given the same treatment by Microsoft? :lol It's all a mess.
I think at the end of the day, Sony hasn't done enough ass kissing, mooching, hyping and all that shit. Microsoft with cathelmets and shit did a hell lot of good.
msdstc said:
How can you say that when, in aggregate, the gaming press unquestionably preferred Sony games more than 360 games?
Sure, there may be jabs at Sony here and there. There are also jabs at MS. But at the end of the day all that matters are the aggregate review scores and awards. The gaming press declared Sony the winner.

Yep their word matched the score,the way they bring together those games to bring down the score are retarded,using multiple games to downplay one,is retarded and that where my complain is,that way we can bring any shooter down in score,because there is no shooter that simply feature the best part of every single thing,like story,graphics,animation,art,multiplaying,gameplay,in fact i dare say the closes now is Killzone 2,at least on 3 or more things is the top dog at least on the console market.
