First Killzone 2 online review gets 4/5, “great enough” but does not add anything new to genre
Lucky Swedish site GP has finished reviewing Killzone 2, and their conclusion is that the game is indeed “great enough”, albeit with some lacking elements. It’s “personal” enough, but it doesn’t really add anything new to the genre. Read up over at the full article.
In the ongoing weekend news drought, the drizzles continue to come, mostly from the camp of Sony‘s Killzone 2. And aren’t we all glad for that? This time, it’s an absolute good news for fans of the Sony exclusive title as the first online review comes out, carrying four stars out of five.
Lucky Swedish site GP has finished reviewing the game, and their conclusion is that it is indeed “great enough”, albeit with some lacking elements. Translation of an excerpt from their review follows:
The controls are good and the environments feel natural, raw and uncouth and that’s where Killzone 2 succeeds compared to many other shooters; it feels more personal, it’s easier to identify with your character and to feel connected with your teammates. Co-op is noticeably missing, which is odd, and Killzone 2 isn’t doing much new with the genre but is great enough to succeed without launching for the Christmas Sale period.
We’ll most probably agree with them once the rest of us mere mortals get the copy at the end of February. But until then, we’ll just have to take their word for it.
