Killzone 2

Its just the beginning of Playstation 3's 3rd year and Killzone 2 has just been released. The opening movie alone will blow you away with what the PS3 is now capable of doing. But delve deeper into the game and you will find that there is much more there to impress. The graphics are impressive. Everything from battle sequences to dust flying around. The physics of the game is truly something to behold. Each body movement looks authentic and every facial feature on a person truly brings the game to life. How is the controls and battle system? Well if you are used to Call of Duty, dont expect the game to move like that. Charecters move a bit slower but not in a bad way. I for one am a huge fan of the cover system they have implimented in the game. Duck behind something while holding down the L2 button you can shoot around walls or over the top of whatever is protecting you. The game truly feels like a masterpiece. Sure the voice acting is subpar, but that sure doesnt mean its not entertaining. One last warning... The fabled F word does appear in the game quite a few times... so those who have sensitive ears should probably think twice before purchasing this fantastic exclusive Playstation 3 title.
