Killzone 3 Review

I thought multiplayer in games has been a major focus since forever. Pong was all about the multiplayer, arcade games were all about multiplayer, PC games have been huge for multiplayer for years too.

I'd probably agree that it's becoming more of a focus for consoles with the birth of online and all that, but I don't think the medium as a whole has changed much...

Ditto. Excepting perhaps for the part where I may have prior given you credibility for sanity.

Stop being purposefully obtuse. I'm not saying I want to ignore it - read my post - but that given the focus upon multiplayer with current gen games, a trend which I assume will only grow - that the online components are perhaps worth MORE than a mere paragraph or two. You have tried, and failed, to reverse my argument and throw in a little insult.

Do you deny that the multiplayer aspect of games is becoming more of a focus? I may not necessarily like that fact, but I can see the sense in adapting reviews to encompass this progression within the hobby.

How is it unique? Go into detail please

What the heeeeelllll? Reviews do have separte thoughts and opinions on singleplayer and multiplayer, I don't think I've ever seen one that's hasn't and has said "both modes are EXACTLY the same" because that would be wrong.

If you don't want to spend an extra 2 minutes having to read reviewers thoughts on multiplayer then just scroll past it or something instead of reviewers having to spend time writing a whole different review about the same game just because you don't have many friends and creating more numbers and stats about different game and thier modes making everything complex.

I used to think you were quite sane, but now I can't understand how you think the things you think.

Are u retarded?

I was going to quote all your spelling mistakes to emphasize how contradicting that statement is, especially considering it was aimed at Woffls. I'm fairly sure Battlefield has a similar heavy, real weight movement feel to it anyway.

There are 20 published reviews included on Metacritic.

Are u retarded? unique like HALo, how is HALo unique? LMAO, have you played killzone? Its a bit different then most FPS, nothing else on console has the heavy, real weight, movement, its a lot mroe tactical then game like GAYLO. Halo unique? Halo is the standard for generic scifi shooters. Standard and generic. COd is even worse.

LAMo woffls is a moron, Halo unique? LMAO, typical generic sci fi for 12 year olds. unique is Heavy rain. halo is standard casual trash. Killzone is the best online shooter around along with battlefield. Gears of war had an atrocious Campaign and the worst dialog and sterotypical muscle bound characters around.

It's okay, not everyone is capable of understanding why Halo is such an advanced game :) I own a copy of Killzone 2 on my PS3.

All the sites that dont have reviews up yet idiot. There are only a few reviews of KZ 3 yet, the rest are waiting.

EDIT This is an official warning! Your response breaks forum rules please check them. If you continue in this fashion then I'm sure there will be more consequences. I have passed your forum name onto the powers that be so expect to be contacted. Please be more careful with your words. I have also merged all 3 rants for easy reading.

Reading the first couple of pages. People seem to forget that Reviews are anothers opinion on the game. So anyone and everyone is entitled to an opinion on here, which shouldn't be taken as them being fanboy because they have disagreed.

Although, the people disagreeing with the Campaign Review, haven't really the true 'authority' to communicate their animosity against the review when no one but the reviewers have played the campaign at this moment in time.

Nooooo the last thing we need is more numbers. I'm not opposed to critiquing the different parts separately, but where do you draw the line? Do you release the Dual Shock 3 version of the KZ3 review first, then the MP later, then the Move version after that? And do you need to do the MP review again with the Move controller? It opens a can of worms, and I think it's best left contained. Not least because it would massively screw up every aggregate system out there, not to mention how VG's database stores the information.

Yeh, no, don't do that, please! :D

Hmmm Killzone 2 got a 9 from the good ol Wes. Surprising that Tom didn't get to do the review, but that isn't knocking you Neon!

Good read nonetheless. I do believe Killzone 2 campaign was 6hr long and maybe be a bit longer. Bargain bin buy for me and certainly caused a stir VG to the Sony fanboys. ;) Oh you naughty bunch of people.

For anyone that is interested in the MP aspect there is a fair bit about it in Gametrailers review.

Precisely the sort of thing - brief but concise, I have been suggesting! Perhaps something vg.com might like to give serious consideration to. Does any other review site take such an approach?

Some people buy games purely for MP, Others purely for SP, some want to experience both. Now that MP is such a big part of gaming the scoring should reflect this.
A quick look at this kind of scoring will show me exactly what I may or may not be interested in playing - Easy!

Batman Arkham Asylum - SP =10/10, MP = N/A
Dead Space 2 - SP = 8/10, MP = 6/10
COD:Blops - SP = 8/10, MP = 10/10
Uncharted 2 - SP = 10/10, MP = 9/10
Killzone 3 - SP = 7/10, MP = TBC

I'd also love to see cheaper versions of the games released with just the SP or MP component on the disc for people that do only want that one thing!

*Note all scores are just quickly made up and are not intended for any form of argument to be started because someone thinks that 'Killer Croc was too easy to beat so therefore Batman doesn't deserve a 10'*

Killzone always had a piss poor single player so i'm not surprised. The multiplayer (ESPECIALLY Warzone) is great but based on that alone, still doesn't warrent anything other than an 8.
