Killzone 2 beta keys being sent to European gamers

Heads up European gamers, looks like the first wave of beta invites for Killzone 2 are being sent out. Better check your emails if you got one.

PS3Life.nl also received a tip-off that the closed beta was launched today - though I'm not sure if the Google translation from Dutch was accurate. I'm not sure if they meant the launch of the internal beta within Sony, or the actual European beta. The screenshots they posted indicate the latter (check out the first pic below).

Since I was deprived of a beta key because I don't live in the area, I can't validate this for myself. If you're from Europe and you got yourself a beta key, give a holler in the comments if the beta really has launched.

Whether or not it's the internal beta though, the screenshots they posted look like they came from a beta if not the beta.

# Translation from dutch — DrWho1980 2008-09-26 09:21

For those of you who are intrested, here is a translation from dutch

(by me, not by a translation stite)

Killzone 2 closed beta started today

--------------------------------------------

An anonymous person tipped PS3Life.nl that Killzone 2 closed beta started today. In august there was news that speculated Killzone 2 beta would be released early October, today it seems that Sony has put the beta online and send out keys to people.

According to the tipper the graphics are lifelike and the camera moves along smoothly. He also adds there are many objectives to reach and there are bots that protect your spawning spot. He also likes the shadows and lighting.

The tipper also gave us some exclusive screenshots of the beta, these can be viewed below.

(on the site of course)

This is as good a translation as you can get. I hope it helps.

Take care

# Sure they do! — DrWho1980 2008-09-26 09:30

I'm sure they do read QJ ^^'

but that doesn't mean they read this post...

they probably are more intrested in hombrew stuff.

# cool but sad — PS3 OUTSIDER 2008-09-26 10:57

you can repy to your own comment thats pretty stupid qj

# not cool, just sad — DrWho1980 2008-09-26 11:41

Just not as stupid as actualy replying to your own post. Or bothering other people with the fact that you have found out something everyone else obviously already knew.

# :-( — Shady0808 2008-09-26 22:08

Well I'm a European gamer and I haven't had a key :-( I got a key for the Motorstorm Pacific Rift Demo though, so hopefully I might get one for this :-)

# @PS3 OUTSIDER — Matt-N 2008-09-26 23:32

I've read your other posts on here and you're just a bellend!

# Not a chance. — chessboxer 2008-09-27 02:21

Unfortunately you have to be selected by SCEE to become a beta tester (this is stated in the email) and you will get keys to all betas for as long as they require you to be a tester. Pacific Rift was different because it was just a demo and only selected people were given the opportunity to have a go. I doubt many beta testers were given a key for that but would have got a key for Resistance 2, SOCOM, LBP and now this.

There are too many awesome games to play at the moment.

# @matt-n — PS3 OUTSIDER 2008-09-27 04:04

kudos to you the last time we spoke you were unsure about your sexual orientation how is that little problem progressing for you.

if you need to talk to someone about this i would be glad to help you.

# @ PS3 OUTSIDER — Matt-N 2008-09-27 05:13

Yeah I remember. Such intelligent wit!

You were getting all excited about the prospect of me being gay, but like I told you then, I'm not... so... don't really know what else to say to ya. You'll just have to face facts mate - move on!

Honestly, you calling me gay is not really an insult in this day and age. You're clearly very young (minded) if you think that offends me.

Look, if it REALLY does it for you, then just keep on imagining me being gay. Have fun with your thoughts... you weirdo!

# @matt-n — PS3 OUTSIDER 2008-09-27 14:32

lol what a ***** asks for a beta key then whines like a little b1tch when you dont have any left then calls me ***** dude your the one complaining about not getting into a game what a loser.

# @ PS3 OUTSIDER — Matt-N 2008-09-27 17:11

What the hell are you going on about you freak? When/where/why did I ask for a Beta key? I have never applied for a Beta key, and probably never will. You really are a little thicko aren't you?

Your replies never have anything to do with the original post. Spose you'll start telling me about the weather next you 'tard.

# weather report — PS3 OUTSIDER 2008-09-28 16:22

today will be sunny with light showers this afternoon. get a life or a girlfriend just do something other then b1tch all the time about people.

# LOL — Matt-N 2008-09-29 00:53

That was actually quite funny.
