Loading ...We have covered Killzone 2 before, and now with a newly released gameplay video it’s shaping up to look a lot like some sort of Resistance 2/Call of Duty 4 style mix (which is a good thing).
You have the perverted techno/grimy/future vibe going on, with the intense first-person perspective and enhanced first-person visuals (like depth of field, etc. that we saw in Call of Duty 4 polished to a ridiculous degree)
The one thing I wasn’t happy to see is that I’m assuming this game is going to already bag an M-rating, but there is barely any gore or blood. Check out the scenes where the soldiers get riddled with bullets, you get a small little “splash” effect like in Uncharted: Drake’s Fortune that disappears immediately.
I was happy to see some physical reactions from the environment, but am reserving my judgment for later, they did look like scripted sequences much like the Call of Duty franchise likes to use. More specifically, creating realistic environments by having lots of “wow” scripted sequences, but not actually modeling a battle environment that responds to your behavior in it (e.g. shooting a building with a rocket and watching it crumble).
This means the first time you play through the game, everything looks awesome and you are amazed at it, but if you die and have to replay a level or decide to replay the game later, you notice that everything is looking/happening just like it did the first time.
This is all speculation at this point, the game still looks damn pretty; check it out:
