Everyone just needs to shut the hell up about there being a Halo 2-killer because there isn't one. Killzone will still hold very strong on its own, but respect has to be given where it's been earned, folks.

Three IGNPS2 editors compare Killzone to Halo 2. Three IGNPS2 editors choose Halo 2.

Ignore if old, search didn't find anything.

OH MY GOD WHAT THE FUCK!?!?!?!

....

I think that isn't very surprising. MONEY HAT ANYONE?

 

[explodet]

I almost read that title as:

Halo 2 > (Killzone x 3)

Which would have meant something a little different.
Didn't Killzone get a great big "meh" at E3?

 

[SantaC]

I thought they said it was a Halo killer, not Halo 2.

 

[Kuroyume]

Wasn't that stupid site the same one that was hyping the game to be the PS2 Halo killer to begin with? ^_-

 

[AssMan]

IT'S OFFICIAL! KILLZONE=T3H D00M3D!

Gosh No

 

[dorio]

Why do these people insist on increasing my already fever pitch unhealthy desire for Halo2.

 

[Andy787]

Wait, they chose Ratchet and Clank 3 twice and Jak 3 over Metroid Prime 2? Uh, yeah.

 

[Sai]

Where's Deka?

 

[Musashi Wins!]

Was there (is there) any tool out there who honestly believed Killzone was going to be a "Halo Killer"?

 

[Kon Tiki]

Famboy listz.

Golf vs RE4?

Jak/Racket vs MP2:E?

Weird choices.

 

[GhaleonEB]

From all the pre-E3 hype on the now toasted GAF boards, yes. Many, many tools.

 

[DSN2K]

from what I heard from E3 its very average game.

 

[Solid]

I'm sure it'll play fine for those with just a PS2. But for us with both Xbox and PS2 I think Halo 2 is the obvious choice

 

[Lord Error]

It's actually encouraging what they had to say about it. Sure they don't say it matches or exceeds Halo 2, but they actually seemed to be impressed by it.

I dunno, Shellshock hasn't got the best scores so far, and that is done by Guerilla also... We'll see what will they do with KZ.

 

[COCKLES]

The only Halo 2 killer will be Halo 3.

 

[TekunoRobby]

That was such a WORTHLESS article.

Exactly

 

[FightyF]

"[insert benchmark game here] killer" = magazine sales/website traffic

Let's not complicate this issue any further.

 

[adrockthekid]

True dat.

Brave Fencer Musashi : Zelda :: Killzone : Halo/Halo 2

I like to play Halo when I cant sleep, the gameplay helps you get sleepy because its so boring.

Dear lord, dont make Killzone like Halo, amen.

 

[Mejilan]

Seriously. They can aspire to better than Halo when finishing up Killzone. Yikes.

Interesting. Many people, myself included, find Halo to be one of the most consistantly challenging, intense and satisfying game experiences available. Then again, I play on Legendary.

The only Halo killer will be Halo 2. As for 'Killzone killers'....there appear to be plenty.

 

[Chipopo]

I like to play Halo when..

You own an Xbox, yes?
