Killzone 2 Review: An Iconic PS3 Masterpiece (Retro Review)

[@TheNewGamePluss]

I remember the first time I played Killzone 2, it was mind-blowing. I didn't wanted the game to finish lol. Man the multiplayer was so addicting as well.

[@goukigod]

Yeah I don’t understand why they killed the online component. I suppose it cost them money but it still sucks for the fans

[@TheNewGamePluss]

@@goukigod Yeah, such a solid multiplayer game. I hope some fans pick this up and open the servers, they did this for Socom confrontation PS3. I was actually playing a couple of weeks ago and it was simple to get online. No hacks on the console of anything just change the DNS to their servers and just worked.

[@LWalsh0]

My all time favorite online multiplayer shooter. My best friend that passed always came over to play this with me. I was always in the 1% and had the ribbon for my personal record of 8 months. Will always remember this game and the times I had with my blood brother and my (other) brother that passed 😔 So much fun.

[@goukigod]

Sorry to hear that. Good memories though!

[@AD-hy2se]

I liked how when you died, you would be writhing around on the floor and the enemy could walk up and finish you off so you couldn’t be revived. Such a cool game.

[@goukigod]

There are so many little details that even ten years on I was seeing new stuff on my recent playthrough.

[@rabidkitten01]

The mix of ragdoll physics and traditional animation always made shooting enemies satisfying. One of my favorite games; I hope they remaster it. The atmosphere is excellent that almost reminds me of EFT.

[@goukigod]

Yeah, it’s a perfect example of how they layered systems. We pray for a bluepoint remaster!

[@mac1bc]

Still waiting for a remaster...

[@Larry]

The original Killzone had a remaster on PS3, but it goes for silly money on eBay now as it it really went under the radar.

[@goukigod]

I didn't know there was a physcial release of that. I've thought about purchasing the digital version a few times but I own it on PS2 and to be perfectly honest, I can't see myself ever playing all the way through it.

[@Larry]

[@sunray2818]

@@goukigod Quite glad I got them when I can, the triple pack is quite worth it since all the games inside it are the first editions not the Playstation Best ones like Resistance triology, but I guess it's getting rare as well.

[@mjc0961]

Sometimes I remember that Killzone died so the developers could make another bog standard Ubisoft open world game franchise and it makes me incredibly sad. I guess Killzone was another bog standard first person shooter for its own time, but at least it was one of the more interesting ones, not just another WW2 or "modern" military shooter.

[@JDMEXforme]

KZ2 was a masterpiece. Multiplayer was insane. I would use the Helgast rifle and when the crosshairs turn red I would always shoot and always kill the enemy. Your reaction time has to be mad quick to use that rifle.

[@lemoi08]

9:13 when i shot one with the arc rifle, as he was being electrocuted he quickly pulled his pistol out and shot himself, same thing with the flame thrower. i was blown away by those little details

[@BlindBison]

This game was awesome, hope we get a PC and PS5 port someday.

[@regal394]

Best gunplay ever, I adored the weighted feel and the feedback from the guns. The sound was amazing and the dynamic environmental impact from the bullets is still spectacular

[@cj8489]

Great video. I am currently playing this again on my LG C1 OLED and it still looks amazing. I would love for them to remaster 2 and 3 as well. It would be awesome to have a rock solid 60 fps, but I would hope the “heavy” feel of the character and the gritty atmosphere would remain intact. There is something about this generation of games (PS3, 360) that perfectly straddled that line of abstract enough for your mind to fill in the gaps, yet powerful enough to provide a good experience through HD visuals. It would be disappointing if more modern hardware diminished that look and feel by rendering everything in pristine 4K.

[@goukigod]

I think to do it properly you'd have to rethink some of the effects because as you've said, simply running in 4k does somewhat ruin the original look.

[@goukigod]

[[ UPDATE / 08/11/21 ]] The Killzone 2 servers have unofficially been brought back online! Anyone with a copy of KZ2 and a PS3 can connect to them for free! You can also play it via RPCS3 (emulation), although it sounds like there are a couple of extra hoops to jump through. Here's how to connect to the servers www.psone.online/getting-started It has been brought to my attention that there's a third way to play it. You can stream it via PlayStation Plus Premium. This isn't emulation either and on PC you have some basic options to upscale the graphics. Input delay is something to be aware of though and considering how soft the controls feel on the PS3 adding any lag might have a pretty noticeable impact on gameplay. This will really depend on your connection and location though. Also, MW2 sold 25m in its lifetime, not in the first year. It still handsomely outsold KZ2 regardless of what timeframe you look at.

[@velouris76]

Have to say, when I first played KZ2, the one thing that blew my mind was the enemy AI…it was amazing

[@goukigod]

It doesn't seem that amazing today, unless you're comparing it to other games of the era. But yeah, very ahead of its time.

[@10secondsrule]

this is the best game i’ve ever played. still loving it and keep ps3 just to play it. it feels like war, it feels real. None other game had managed to recreate this feeling ever since. Shame they did not make good use of six axis controller. If they do the remaster with high res and 60 or more fps I am willing to get a new console just for this game. i purchased ps3 just for this game alone. And the kz3 - not as good but still great. If only Rico was not such an total asshole the KZ2 campaign would have been close to perfect.

[@Pigsy255]

lol - can't remember if it was KZ2 or 3 but I cheered when Narville asked Rico to shut up.

[@tbhreviews6611]

This and the resistance series are my favorite fps games

[@goukigod]

I could never get into the resistance games. I liked the story but they just felt a bit wooden to play.

[@AhmetIbrahim]

About the controls: there's quite a lot of input latency in Killzone 2 which is why it felt "dull"

[@10secondsrule]

True but you can get use to it. Kind of. kz3 fixed it but i prefers to play with motion controllers instead though it makes it way too easy.

[@Andrija_12345]

Really nice video. I'm playing Killzone 2 for the first time now in 2021 as I dusted off the Ps3 during quarantine. it's one of the few titles from that era I wanted but somehow never bought. I also had KZ1 on the ps2 as a kid but don't remember much about it. Game looks great and plays really nice, great atmosphere. I don't mind the weighty controls... It just sucks that I wasn't there for the multiplayer but hey BF3 scratched that itch back then.

[@goukigod]

If you can, download the update. It adds a new control option to make them less floaty

[@Nerdosmicooficial]

I love Killzone 2 and 3 so much. 2 is the best game of franchise for me. Both games can be easily compared with many PS4 games in graphic terms.

[@goukigod]

I too have these feelings

[@The_Word_Is_The_Way]

An absolute classic. Made me so proud to be a PS3 owner from launch. ☺️

[@goukigod]

Definitely lived up to the hype

[@The20_er]

Excellent well done analysis of Killzone 2,,, it’s a shame that guerilla games has officially retired the Killzone website. Killzone 2 was definitely one of the best shooters I played. it’s just too bad that GG wanted to cater to the call duty crowd with their updates. I’m just curious as to why there hasn’t been a remaster of KZ2... Why have they discontinue this great franchise? was it not profitable?

[@goukigod]

According to the sales numbers it wasn't a huge success. It probably made money but I'm guessing Sony didn't feel like the numbers justified a remaster. This is just speculation, but I think it's likely that Sony may have also influenced the shift in the later games to a more conventional (COD) style of game design too.

[@IHLWonk]

KZ2 will always be my favourite FPS. Only thing that comes close is Bad Company 2 and Crysis 2. Increase textures and framerate is all this game needs for a remaster. It will always be a halo killer in my books. I actually purchased the game before I even had a PS3, that's how excited I was for the game.

[@goukigod]

There's a certain magic that was lost in the subsequent games for sure.

[@fernandorosales2504]

This was my first game on the ps3 it was this or BO1 and I never regretted it

[@goukigod]

I bought BO1 over KZ3 back in 2010. My only regret was not playing KZ3 earlier.

[@ulisse477]

The Enemy AI and the gunfight mecanichs are mind blowing, they are way ahead even compared with the last cod

[@SamDavies94]

I genuinely think that Killzone could make a comeback if Sony cared ebough to fund it. I'm not really a fan of Horizon and find it far too repetitive, it's a shame such a renound and iconic franchise has stumbled.

[@goukigod]

I think if it were to come back, it would probably need to be a different style of game. The traditional FPS formula never saw that much success, possibly because it was positioned as a single player game with an online component, rather than an online game with a single player component. I'm not a huge fan of the live service model but I could see a Helldivers or Destiney style of Killzone working.

[@scottcunningham5744]

I'd love for bluepoint to take a crack at remaking this but your right, Sony won't do it because they believe the fanbase was too small. Also hate how much hate the first one gets, it had it flaws but I loved it

[@goukigod]

I think if Bluepoint was going to handle it, it would have had to have been done a few years ago. With them remaking games like Shadow of the Colossus and Demon Souls their in the big leagues now.

[@scottcunningham5744]

@@goukigod well, the helghast did make an appearance in astros playroom, it's an IP they recognise as iconic. Remaking a game like this wouldn't be easy, so I wouldn't trust anyone else but Guerrilla to do it, so I think a project like this wouldn't be beneath bluepoint

[@WarpScanner]

What I want to see is for Sony to take their recent interest in putting their games on PC to their older titles like this one. I never got to try this game's multiplayer and I'd love to try it with a M+KB.

[@goukigod]

It definitely feels like it was designed for mouse and keyboard. I get the sense that Sony aren’t interested in resurrecting much of their back catalogue unless it was a huge commercial success back in the day, or it’s Grand Turismo...

I loved all the effects of Killzone. It felt real. Not a big fan of twitch shooters that are overly sci fi surreal. I haven't played a game today with the same kind of effects as that game. The smoke, environment destruction, impact, the gun actually feels powerful instead of the floaty feel of modern shooters I hate that they listened to the fanbase that kept complaining about the "unresponsive guns" they essentially destroyed the franchise by "fixing" it and turning it into a generic twitch shooter with shadow fall

Might be the most disrespected 90+ metacritic game of all time. barely any killzone retrospectives on youtube and the odd video talking about it almost never has anything positive to say. also any horizon related video seems to have this trend of people claiming that guerilla games came out of nowhere after making the 'halo clone' that is the killzone franchise. props to you for taking the time to make this video.

That's a really great tip and something, that in hindsight, I should have talked about.

[@bennygerow]

Back when these games came out I just wasn't sold on yet another military shooter when I was already invested in several. Another thing is the commerical didn't really do it any favors since it didn't really tell me why I needed to put the other shooters down and start playing THIS one instead. Lastly, I was playing battlefield multiplayer every day, and I didn't know anybody who was leaving BF to go play Killzone.

[@goukigod]

I think the marketing pit it against COD, Battlefield and Halo witch was a mistake. It was a saturated market and on the surface it did look like just another military shooter, albeit a very pretty one.

I hate how Guerrilla Games invested so much on the Killzone series and then dumped it, i think the game had the best fps campaign of the generation. The multiplayer was a great middle ground between CoD and Battlefield but it was too unbalanced and grindy for new players , Killzone 3 multiplayer was awesome.

[@goukigod]

It sounds like after more than ten years with the franchise they just wanted to do something different. It’s a bummer that these games never sold well enough to keep it going but I don’t blame Guerrilla for moving on. When Horizon goes free in April I’ll have to give it a go.
