Killzone 2

From the GameSpot hands-on with it:

  • Almost no HUD during play. No health bars, similar to Gears of War.
  • Full physical environment (shotting a canister will send it flying down a hallway)
  • 7.1 surround sound
  • Cover-system similar to Gears/Rainbow6/etc. Using L2 to lock onto an object then lean out behind it.
  • Not all cover is created equal. Some cover, like cement blocks, can be blown away while you hide behind it.
  • Insane detail/graphics/level-of-post-processing used to create a really gritty environment
  • Improved hit-response system. Shooting someone in the face will kill them different than the arm, chest, leg, penis, etc.
