Beat Killzone 2..finally...
inFamous comes out in three days and I have no money, so I looked at my pile of games looking for one that I didn't really play but was still worth a good amount of money. And there it was, Killzone 2. I got the game on March 11th expecting it to be epic. It ended up having a great, and I mean GREAT single-player campaign, but the multiplayer wasn't really what I was hoping it would be. At this time I was only 4 missions into the game (out of 10) and I thought to myself "I don't want to sell this game before beating it..." It's been about a month since I last played KZ2 before today, so I was kinda getting the feeling that I should play it more anyway. So I popped the disc in with one mission: beat the damn game!!!!
So I did. 3 hours, 6 missions, and one hell of a relief. The whole game took me 6 hours, so I really played through half of the game this morning.
So what did I think of the campaign?? Well...the first half is pretty...eh...I don't want to say boring, but it's just not up to what the second half offers. And the second half of the game- pretty much just awesome. I LOVED the tech suit level and the final level was INTENSE. Overall I'd say it's a great FPS experience, but not "groundbreaking". I have the exact same thoughts about another certain overrated FPS, Halo. Nothing special about it. Good game? Yeah, sure, for peoplewho like FPS's. Groundbreaking? Not one bit. Same goes for Killzone 2. Although, Killzone is a lot more intense than Halo, in Killzone 2, you FEEL like you're in a war. When I play Halo I feel like I'm in some cheap half-assed late Spring action movie.
Ugh, I don't even know why I'm comparing KZ2 to Halo. The point is, it's a great game, but just not legendary. *cough*samewithHalo*cough*.
But, the reason I got the game was for the multiplayer, and, well, I don't love it. But the multiplayer is good, don't think otherwise, just not my kinda multiplayer, if you know what I mean.
For anyone who likes FPS's, don't read this the wrong way, get KZ2. If you like FPS's in the slightest, KZ2 is a great package.
8/10
I think I'll for sure sell KZ2 now, for INFAMOUS!!!!!!!!!!! :D
