that if you think that, then you should just get rid of it and keep your precious CoD, i know ill enjoy this game for months if not years. You may say its nothing special now but you just wait, wait til after its been out for a bit and they have more time to patch it and add stuff to the title. Dont be so quick to throw it out the window just because you bought it from a store that should be fined huge for breaking the street date, you gotta wait for more people to get game to be able to enjoy the online more.

# I just bought Killzone 2 today....... — Link75e 2009-02-24 10:33

ive been playing for a while now maybe an hour and its not what i expected. I dont know if this happened to anyone else but i like Resistance but when i played resistance 2 holy fudge it sucked. I liked resistance 1 because of its difficulty but resistance 2 was real easy. Same thing with killzone 2 its not what i remember palying from the first. I was short on money so i sold gears of war 2 and Lost Odessy because i had already purchased star ocean last hope so for anyone else short on money maybe you should rent this game first then decide if its worth it, i wish someone would have reviewed it properly with getting paid to say its the best just all the number 1 movies that come out every year.

# well then — teh not so 1337 g@m3r 2009-02-24 13:32
