Those wepon animations were way ahead of their time, reminds me of MW2019

[@Donut_Vanguard]

Playing this on an HD tv back then and noticing the engraving on the M4 revolver truly shocked me at how well designed Killzone 2 was. Kudos to Guerrilla Games.

[@leecroft7311]

I love the sense of weight of everything in this game. The passing, the speed, everything about this game is... on point.

[@Donut_Vanguard]

Don’t forget the sound effect too!

[@leecroft7311]

@@Donut_Vanguard So true, so true. The sound is punchy and loud. The game feels heavy, the atmosphere of it all is perfect. Great, great game. The game screams 'war'.

[@LanceCriminal1337]

God damn, I love this game so much. Hands down one of the best FPS games ever made

[@Donut_Vanguard]

I concur

[@Balkan_Arsenal]

This game looks incredible, i'd say a decade ahead of it's time.

[@Donut_Vanguard]

It came out better then the rendered trailer show cased in E3 😂

[@Balkan_Arsenal]

@@Donut_Vanguard So pretty much the opposite of what most game companies did those days.

[@POLLO91x]

Indeed! You can really feel the passion and the effort of the developers in older games like this. Take for example the og Gears of War trilogy or Bungie Halo on the first Xbox/Xbox 360. Even now they are simply stunning. And most importantly, fun to play. Recent Gears or Halo are a hot mess, lore-wise and/or on a technical level (physics, attention to details etc...). It really saddens me.

[@Donut_Vanguard]

Gaming is no longer immersive, sadly it’s all about the live service model.

[@slvrcobra1337]

​@@Donut_VanguardMan, I remember the massive controversy about KZ2 being revealed with CGI and then being blown away that they actually managed to make the real game look like that. The 360/PS3/Wii era was the golden age IMO.

[@nemysyys2285]

Really really miss the grenade spam in this game it was just insane 🤣

Killzone 2! The best entry in the series. I wish more games had a botzone or horde mode like Killzone and Gears.

[@Donut_Vanguard]

I agree, the perfect setting to practice your aim or just explore the maps with bots.

Everybody loves the Helghast, down with the ISA!

[@10ksb17]

All this game needs is an Fov adjustment and it’s as good as new

[@CommanderLongJohn]

Nah, that largely adds to the atmosphere and gameplay, and this is coming from someone who typically despises low FOV's. It's largely why the game is so weighty-slow, always gave me hardcore metal-futuristic-BFBC vibes.

[@cutwir3317]

Was in this game day 1…I miss it,also miss throwing spawn grenades behind spaces in the map that your enemies could not see.Also the dlc was great,train level🔥🔥

[@Donut_Vanguard]

Top tier tactician huh? You definitely need to play again so we can see you in action.

[@YandereParfait]

We really need more games like this. I remember playing 007 goldeneye on the Wii and it was much more unique and fun to me than the tradition COD game. Maybe it’s just me but I am completely burnt out of COD and would love to see more games like this from other developers come out with their own twists on gameplay and gadgets.

[@Donut_Vanguard]

Unfortunately many small studios are bought by AAA companies to continue working on the same franchises that people are burnt out of.

[@SeFu2006]

Never played these games other than the first one but I gotta admit I regret not being able to and you can’t deny how immersive these games strive d to be especially considering the tech the devs had to work with

[@Donut_Vanguard]

Very true, PS3 was a difficult console to develop for. But you are welcome to play, it’s a public server. If you have a good computer you can always emulate the game. And if you need a saved data to unlock all the soldier classes and abilities there is also a solution to that.

[@kidkodex7696]

Best HUD out of any FPS ive played. miss this game

[@Donut_Vanguard]

And the sound chimes too!

[@ReachTea]

PlayStation really needs a banger first party FPS, I feel like they're studios are underutilised

[@imperfectlygreat9530]

One of the best games ever. The campaign and multiplayer were both amazing

[@Donut_Vanguard]

I can’t disagree 🤝

[@nonames1139]

As an Xbox owner, I always look at Sony and just don’t understand how they haven’t taken over the multiplayer shooter scene. If they made a modern day ps5 exclusive socom Game and did it right , they could be a major competitor with the tactical Shooter games If they used bungie , they could help revolutionize killzone into a high quality PvP experience

[@Donut_Vanguard]

The amount of people playing the older generation and titles is huge. Goes to show people hate the direction the gaming industry has taken. Not sure if Bungie can do well with KZ, I played Destiny for year and the game has become a micro-transaction hell. Profits over service..

[@silvester0413]

Graphics look better back then than todays most games. Something is truly wrong with this idnustry

[@Donut_Vanguard]

People love graphics more than gameplay, sadly I don’t see a change in the gaming world any time soon.

[@sebastercats6123]

How are you so good with your aim? You're playing with a controller, right? Never got used to aiming with controllers since mine was not of good quality back then.

[@LewisColeman93]

Confused, to emulate do you need ps3 still? Ive been craving this game again for like 10 years

[@TerribleP]

Damn man I had no idea you could still play this! I like late last year went back and watched a bunch of videos on KZ2 gameplay because it is still amazing to this day, so glad you and others are still playing

[@Donut_Vanguard]

Thank you for your words, I am glad we are able to enjoy this game and many others. Maybe it will show the companies we reject modern gaming for the predatory practices they are about these days.

[@joshuachampagne2152]

How are you still able to play it online? I still have my ps3 connected online and it's not letting me play any of my killzones online.

[@Donut_Vanguard]

We play Killzone 2 courtesy of 1UP and K3rberos who built a costume dedicated server. There are other handful of games available to play online as well, not just KZ2. You only need to change your DNS. Here is a guide to help you to connect. psrewired.com/guides/ps3

A new Killzone game wouldn't be a bad idea or even a complete reboot, Sony need to have more big FPS games. They only really have Destiny 2 atm.

Gaming is a money making machine now. It’s all about milking the consumers for every cent they got. It’s no longer about making a quality game with a lot of content to make us happy. Now, they release a game half way done, and they just charge you money for the rest of the content. It’s absolutely pathetic. This industry is at its worst right now. COD with its stupid battlepass crap and all these stupid skins that cost a ridiculous amount, EA just announced that the new BF game will be a live service game, Halo is a live service game, you got Ubisoft making you pay well over $100 for a complete game, sports games are trash, racing games are pretty trash as well now….i can keep going.
