"It will have been over four years since the release of the original Killzone when Killzone 2 hits retail shelves in February 2009. In that stretch of time, PlayStation owners have endured delay after delay in hopes of one day finally getting the opportunity to sit down with the highly anticipated title in order to take down one Helghast at a time. One of the key components to taking down this dastardly enemy of mankind is the weaponry you’ll be equipped with. We’ve taken the time to display t..."

"" I saw Playr this morning too. It's basically the new version of Gamer TV. Made by the same people with the same format but with a different, less nasally, presenter. Airs in the UK on Bravo at the weekend (a satellite/cable channel).

They had a Sony rep demoing KZ2. He spoke about AI advancements although it wasn't abundantly clear that the clips tallied with what he was saying.

Couple of other things though. The dude said there were some new weapons that people would be impressed wit..."

Yesterday Gamersyde upload the first part of gameplay of Killzone 2 from Sony's Gamer Day. They have uploaded the second part of the video, and sure enough, its as amazing as the first video!

"Killzone 2 information has been thin on the ground throughout the game's development. However, Sony and Guerrilla Games threw PlayStation fans a bone yesterday when they not only gave media a chance to play the game, but finally ended speculation around its ship date. An intended February 2009 ship date in Europe was confirmed during the Sony keynote address. SCEE representatives at the game's booth were quick to point out that they could have had the game on shelves this year but chose not t..."

"Fresh from their big PR event today in London, Sony have released some new screenshots from their now-delayed flagship shooter, Killzone 2. And looking at a couple of the in-game shots they chose to release (not the gorgeous one above), it's easy to see why it's been held back. Still looking a little rough in places. Indeed, some of these shots aren't just missing their earlier "target renders", they look more PS2 than PS3! Ah, I kid, but really, there's still a long way to go if they want to..."

Its a busy day todat at Sony's Gamer Day and a lot of info is coming in. And some of that is are some brand new Killzone 2 screenshots. Also check out the video that was just released from the showroom floor.

Killzone 2 is Sony's upcoming sequal to Killzone 1 for the PS2. The first game earth was incaded by the Helghast army and now in the second game, the humans take the fight to the Helghast home world.

Straight from the showroom floor! Brand new Killzone 2 video from Sony's Gamerday! This is the first brand new footage since E3 07. But with some sad news, the game will not hit European store shelves until Febuary 2009. Lets hope they don't push it back for other regions. Click the link to view the video.

"Sony's press site had been updated with this image of Killzone 2, hopefully followed by more soon. Also worth mentioning, the game has been delayed to February 2009, but I don't think anyone is really surprised."

"5:00 BST: Just to confirm the earlier Killzone 2 release date of February 2009--no news on whether this is worldwide, but as this is a European conference, that will definitely be the Euro release date. [UPDATE] Thus far, this delay has been announced for Europe only.

4:40 BST: Killzone 2 will be released in February 2009 in Europe.

4:28 BST: LittleBigPlanet will be released on the PlayStation 3 in October. Hirai highlights the success of PlayStation Network, and says that communities w..."

"Random guy on NeoGAF:

no killzone 2 guys.......



James Stevenson directly from showfloor in London:

wrong

James Stevenson is the community manager for Insomniac games.
He replied to some one who said KZ2 isnt going to be there, saying Wrong. Meaning KZ2 WILL BE THERE.

Insomniac games is there for Resistance 2....

"The Xbox 360 and the Playstation 3 have brought HD gaming into the mainstream. After years of High-Def in the living room being a hazy concept that really only affected A/V aficionados, the more technologically inclined, and the affluent, these videogame machines have made HD Gaming as simple and affordable as “plug n’ play.” But as with any consumer device, the hardware, for all its potential, is just that — untapped potential. What really brings out the true worth of the machine is the soft..."

"I believe that these statues were also given out as prizes and promotional items way back in 2004. This one in particular was found in an old thrift shop. Now who’d abandon such a loyal solider of the Helghan army? He’s made out of fiberglass and can be disassembled so that it makes for easier shipping. What’s even more impressive is the detachable StA-52 LAR(Light Assault Rifle) which you can use to ward off those pesky ISA neighbors of yours."

"The best bits from The Insider article from issue 100 of psm3.

- Guerilla's Vietnam Shooter Shellshock is set to get a sequel. The sequel will be more of a psychological horror than action.
- The Godfather 2 is very much 'go', and is rumoured to contain 'investigation' segments.
- Iron Man is set to appear in Sega's Incredible Hulk, with the big green guy returning the favour in Iron Man.
- Activision have trademarked the name DJ Hero, this could mean a Guitar Hero style game but with a..."

"The wait until Killzone 2’s rumored September release might not feel as long with a new Killzone game coming to PSN this May."

"GamePro readers have spoken: the most eagerly anticipated PS3 title this year is none other than Metal Gear Solid 4.

The news might be unsurprising to some, given the amount of hype and anticipation surrounding this upcoming system seller, but what is slightly surprising is just how much of a win MSG4 achieved over other highly anticipated PS3 IP in GamePro's most recent readership poll.

The Hideo Kojima title pulled in 57.7% of the vote, a full 46.4% higher than second place finisher (..."

"According to the latest Sony Computer Entertainment UK release schedule PlayStation 3 gamers will have plenty to keep them occupied this autumn, with three massive titles hitting stores.

Scheduled for release in September Killzone 2, with Insomniac Games' launch title sequel, Resistance 2, pencilled in for a November release.

The titles are likely to go up against some heavy hitters from Microsoft, including Gears of War 2, Fable 2 and Banjo."

"According to sources, Sony has something big ready to be revealed at E3 this year in regards to the Sony PS3."

"Honestly. I've started writing this reply three times, switching from angry flaming of the kind of mentality that draws people to wasting their lives making posts like the above, through into a factual listing of the many inaccuracies in your post (almost every word is, in fact, objectively incorrect). I've no idea what makes gamers turn so frigging nasty when Devs don't cater to their every whim and I'm not going to start guessing now - if you want to go be excited about Eight Days then be ..."

"Unofficial fan site Killzone Unit reports that during the 1UP podcast in question, Electronic Gaming Magazine previews editor Brian Intihar offered that: "Killzone 2 will come out in 2008, no matter what the quality."

Evidently, some expectant fans took this comment to mean that Sony is pressuring Guerrilla Games to get the much talked about sci-fi FPS sequel ready for launch before it is fully finished."

"From around September or October, the PS3 will move into top gear: that’s when Killzone 2 will arrive, to truly take first-person shooters into the next-gen era. And – more excitingly in my book – when LittleBigPlanet – will arrive. Again, LBP will provide an unknown gameplay experience – firstly, because it is so unlike any other game and, secondly, because it will be up to us to define the gameplay. As the new video of LBP shows, it’s going to look amazing – we’ll get the wh..."

"Recall the furore kicked up when it was discovered Sony had utilised target-rendered game footage to bolster the E3 appeal amassed by Killzone 2?

Hmm, well, guilty or innocent, series developer Guerilla Games has this week reacted swiftly to recent claims that screenshots for the eagerly anticipated sequel have been doctored to improve their overall quality."

"Sony have released a new batch of screenshots for Killzone 2. And most of them look great! Lots of nice lighting, lots of explosions, lots of bad guys, lots of dead bad guys, everything you expect. Some of them, though, like the one above, look a little smooth. A little too smooth. Hrmm. But hey, it's a Killzone game, they wouldn't lie to us! Let's give them the benefit of the doubt."

"OPM go on to discuss the visual impact of Killzone 2 saying that even with a inhospitable and colour drained setting the graphical trickery the PS3 is capable of lets the game shine and come alive with incredible detail and dynamic lighting."

"The de-saturated colour palette, and the fact that Helghan is such an inhospitable hole, should mean that the game looks drab. The fact it doesn't is down to an array of visual tricks, the most important of which is deferred rendering, which involves blending the effect of light sources on an object..*snip*...it makes the city look incredibly dynamic with light and shadow changing constantly as a result of muzzle flashes, burning wreckage and jags of lighting"

It truely is an Unbiased trailer showing how the XBOX was defeated by PS3 after the two rival games (Halo 3 and Killzone 2) were released.

Created by Sony's Defence Force, the video yet once more fails to be clever or entertaining. Take a look at it yourself and give your opinions of the video:

"This is a direct contradiction from the latest hands-on by IGN and Game Informer, whom actually chose to note the positives of the early version of the game in relation to the "aggressively good" intelligence of the game."

"As the fighting between the capabilities of the three individual consoles continue, KillZone 2's developer, Guerilla, has spoken fighting words during an interview with UK's Official PlayStation Magazine."

"In an exclusive interview conducted by Gamereactor during the Games Convention event last week in Germany, Killzone 2 developer has hintedd that, a demo for Killzone 2 is surely on it’s way to the PSN store.

The developer did not give a specific date as to when the demo will be hitting the Playstation Network, however, rumors are circulating that, it will hit shortly or a few weeks after Halo 3’s launch on Microsoft’s Xbox 360. Here is the link to watch the whole video again and watch the ..."

GameStop has just released a 25 minute video of Killzone 2. This video is a demonstration played by the developer as he takes you through the level. Killzone 2 is Sony's next flagship first person shooter and is set for a winter 2008 release. Click the link to view the trailer.

"The rocket launcher in Killzone 2 is pretty awesome. We had only had the Sixaxis controller in our hands for a few minutes when we ran across the behemoth and hoisted it onto our shoulder, but as we ducked down a dark alleyway and lightning crackled overhead, we couldn't wait to use the thing."

"Early 2008 is still the only date we have for Sony's PS3 flagship FPS Killzone 2, but never mind - because we've six new screenshots right here for your viewing pleasure."

The BBC has a 'brand spanking' new video for Killzone 2. This isn't all game play. The developer walks you through the game. He talks about all the small things they added in the game that you should pay attention to. Go to the Source to see the Video.

"To be honest, for weeks I didn't even know that any actual gameplay footage existed, because the E3 video I saw basically ended after the cut scene finished, showing only show a few very brief, fleeting clips of combat. However, a few days ago I came across an extended version of the trailer video, which actually does give you a (mostly) uninterrupted view of a few minutes of play time.

So, since no one else seems capable of giving a proper analysis and report on what we've seen of Killzo..."

"Throughout the campaign, players will encounter lifelike and adaptable artificial intelligence (A.I.) from enemies as well as fellow soldiers, destructible environments, and stunningly detailed scenery. Additionally, players will be tasked with utilizing a host of new weapons and vehicles in the war to stop the Helghast. Featuring an extensive single-player campaign and thrilling multi-player mode, Killzone 2 delivers a host of new game play elements and an intense storyline that will once ag..."

"After exhibiting its stunning trailer at last week's E3 Business & Media Summit in Santa Monica, California, Guerilla Games has spilled the beans on the first gameplay details for its PS3-exclusive first-person shooter Killzone 2.

N'Gai Croal was privileged enough to get to grips with the sci-fi shooter with his own two hands, and duly confirms (pay attention fanboys) in his Newsweek blog that everything us punters saw during E3 was real-time footage and not CGI wizardry."

Tired of looking at the numerous articles for screenshots and minor updates about a game your interested in? Well if that game is being published by Sony on one of their consoles, then the chances are that they have released new information and screenshots for them. You don't have to go far to look for the information either, as it is indexed below, by platform. These are the images and details about the games coming straight from Sony for E3 2007, so take a look at be sure to discuss the ima...

"how does it play?

We immediately took refuge behind a berm, hit L1 to drop into a crouch, shouldered our standard-issue ISA assault rifle and started shooting at our Helghast opponents. Pushing in R3 on the right analog stick gave us the iron sight view through the assault rifle's scope--which, when we informed our Sony and Guerrilla hosts was the aspect of the demo which had most impressed us, gave them a bit of pause, followed by minor hilarity, until we explained ourselves further. It..."

"With Sony's press conference in the past, we've created a roundup of all the small, but significant, announcements and confirmations. This year, Sony allowed very little time for the audience to ponder and absorb, so a lot of the groundbreaking revelations were not emphasised. This was of course a good thing, as it showed that Sony had a lot of things to say. So aside from the major announcements, such as MGS4, Haze and UT3 exclusivity, here are the other tidbits:

- 200 games on Blu-ray an..."

"Q: What are some of the key impressions you want to make with gamers after seeing Killzone 2?

A: We want people who see the game to say "Wow! What a rush!" We hope that they see the level of detail, intensity, and chaos we have put into building the game and are really excited to see and hear their reactions.

Q: Did any military personnel or other professional advisors help with the design of Killzone 2?

A: Not military, but we did work with Hollywood special effects people

"Tonight, Sony Computer Entertainment finally pulled the curtains back from its highly-anticipated first-person shooter, Killzone 2. The console giant has been entirely mum on the game since its debut at E3 2005, and though it started with tremendous hype, gamers have grown more and more weary over its status as time has gone on. The issue up until now has been that as impressive as the trailer was, it was all pre-rendered, and being that no one has really heard about the game in nearly two ye..."

"The first in-game image for Sony's PS3 blockbuster Killzone 2 has appeared on the Internet.

The USA Today website hosts the image, which is apparently taken from the single-level demo being shown to press tonight at E3. Eurogamer's Tom Bramwell will be there, so expect our thoughts as soon as humanly possible.

Killzone 2 was one of the first titles shown alongside the PlayStation 3 two years ago at E3 2005. The lavish and eye-popping trailer had press salivating, but unfortunately concr..."

Some one, some how, has managed to get their hands on some stunning Killzone 2 concept art. Including a picture of a vehicle, some new soldiers and what looks like a weird creature, why not take a look at the screenshots (below) yourself and make a decision as to how great the game looks just from the Concept Art. If the game looks this good I will be shocked and only 2 more days until we might see something.

"Some new info of Killzone 2 from Power Unlimited magazine.

3. Will Killzone 2 hit stores in September?

Expectations for the PlayStation 3 premier shooter are high, and Sony aims to release Killzone 2 during September. In an upcoming GamePro issue, sources close to Sony claim that development on Killzone 2 is going extremely well and the game should hit stores in September right before the holiday season. One GamePro editor wrote, that in comparison with Halo 3 and other shooters on bot..."

"Many are taking the invite as proof that the new Killzone will be at this year's E3. Any further doubts were largely dispelled by the fact the Federal Express envelope the invitation came in bore the words "Killzone 2 Invitation" on the front."
