If you are looking for the perfect game, turn off your computer, sell your console, and perhaps question your standards because it does not exist. Killzone 2 is not without it's flaw, just like every other game in the world. However, Guerrilla(Developer) has come pretty close. For one, the aesthetics are easily the most stunning of ALL the FPS games on the market, this game truly pleases your eyes in ways that only your "Special Friends" should be able to, but obviously graphics do not make the game, which leads to the games mechanics. Killzone 2 Features reasonably tight controls however, there is one issue that can be quite annoying, there is a little too much bobbing of the head when running, which, admittedly, is not much of a hindrance until you add the slightly delayed reactions of the movement particularly when shooting from the hip. nuisances aside there is one interesting mechanic that Guerrilla implemented well and that is the six-axis control from sniping to opening valves, the developer allows for fun ways to use the usually poorly implemented feature.Guerrilla also challenges snipers to actually keep still as an actual sniper would need to in actual warfare because moving too much will send your crosshairs as certain powder loving business man/comedian.This brings the next point of order: Weapons. Weapons,as has been said before, are the stars of any FPS and Killzone 2 has nearly a star studded cast. All the weapons have a satisfying feel from the get as many bullets in the air design of the StA-11 to the relatively high accuracy of the M82 assault, not to mention the fun designs of weapons such as the bolt gun which, similarly to the F.E.A.R. franchise will bolt your enemies to what ever is behind them, however, there is a bit of a twist. there is one reservation to this trend and that is the ISA revolver. the pistol often feels awkward, clunky, and generally non responsive wish can be a problem because it is the primary secondary-weapon that you use through out most of the campaign. the multiplayer game features one mode that does a great job at mixing up a plethora of objectives to keep it feeling fresh,extremely fresh. while the soundtrack isn't blockbuster, the weapons all have a satisfy sound to them. the voice work is not the best, primarily because it's filled with a lot of yelling and enough foul language to make your great grandfather from "The War" blush. while the single player campaign is largely your basic "let's give them a taste of their own medicine, oh sh- maybe that was a bad idea" variety,and the lag is enough to make you want to say things you ought not to say in front of younger children(although the campaign will gladly do that for you), the multiplayer does a fantastic job of keeping the game fun and exciting. In The end even though Guerrilla did not make the perfect game, Killzone 2 is a highly polished and refined experience that no PS3 owner should miss.
