What I'm Playing Right Now: Killzone 2

Killzone 2I know this game has been reviewed a number of times, but my opinion may still have value, right?  Well perhaps not, but here it is anyway.

I got the Killzone 2 demo pretty soon after they offered it.  I liked it, but I was not able to aim and get kills as easily as other shooters.  I figured it probably just had a learning curve.  I liked the graphics and style and it seemed an all around well polished game, just the controls seemed to make it difficult for me.  Because of this, I decided to delay purchase of said game until the price dropped.  Perhaps at the lower price point, it would be easier to swallow if I never got adjusted to the game.

I finally received the full game from Goozex a couple of days ago.  I’m enjoying it, but it’s really fast paced and I feel like it’s driving my blood pressure up!  I think I have gotten over the awkward controls a bit.  I’m still not a great shot, but I think I’ve gotten better.  The game reminds me a lot of Resistance.  Not the story so much, just the game type.  There are a lot of weapons lying around, and not a whole lot of details how to use them.  I assume it could be in the manual, but who reads those?  :)  I’m on Salamun Bridge, I would guess I’m 1/3 - 1/2 way through the game.  I’m playing it on medium.  This is not one of those epic games you spend months playing, if you are really good you could probably play through in a few hours… perhaps a day.  Of course I’m sure it should get harder towards the end, but I’m pretty sure my guess is right.  Do I play it on hard?  I did this with resistance, but I didn’t find myself enjoying it as much and never really finished it again.  I’ll probably finish it and then send it off on goozex (send it back from whence it came) and start playing Resistance 2 or hopefully I’ll have inFamous by then.
