Killzone 2 Demo; More like LAMEZONE 2!

So I downloaded the Killzone 2 demo and I did not like it. Like at all. First off it was around 1 gb big, which is pretty damn big for a demo so I was expecting something big. But what it ended up being was a lame crappy waste of time.

First off the demo took me about an hour and a half to download and around 10-15 minutes to finish. Secondly what was that GB of space for? The insane graphics I have been hearing about? I doubt it. I enjoyed Resident Evil 5's graphics much more and that demo was half the size of the Killzone demo and much longer and harder causing replayable value. I have spent maybe an hour playing the RE5 demo. Almost as long as it took to download the KZ2 demo.

Controls are average, but just to fuck things up and seem different R2 throws grenades and R1 shoots. Why? When I first started I threw a grenade because like every other FPS for the last 10 years R2 (or RT for 360er's) shoots. So I made the natural assumption that R2 shoots. Like all assumptions I made an ass out of myself and wasted a grenade. Apparently it's uncool to aim grenades as well. I would cook a grenade and couldn't move it at all.

Now for the actual gameplay it's so hard to tell what this game is trying to copy, Halo or Call of Duty. It's intense like COD but as easy as Halo. There was one point when I said "wait this is just like in Halo 3" several times and I also muttered a few COD 4's under my breath. The gun is just weird. You can't see your hand and because of recoil your gun goes everywhere. What are you the Invisible Man?

Sorry I have been reading The League of Extraordinary Gentleman and wanted to make that reference. Now back to gameplay. The recoil is just bad. You have such an unrealistic game and you throw beyond realistic recoil in it, it just ruins everything. I spent most of the time aiming the gun with L2.(COD 4) But when your like this there is no recoil at all. I could aim pretty much perfectly.

The best thing is the knife but there wasn't a part at all when I could use it, so it was useless in the demo. A.I. was dumb as hell. There should be an A.I. that moves explosive barrels away from them, not hide beside them. Also I'm getting sick of explosive barrels in FPS's. Yes we get it, a big red barrel can blow up, you know what? Doom had it. It's not new, it's old as shit. Please do something different with them or eliminate them. Just imagine if all games were still Mario rip offs and every level you had to get coins.

That's exactly like this game. It takes all repetitive things from FPS's and sticks them all at you. I don't think I saw one original thing other then the knife. WAIT! Goldeneye had it. Halo also kinda had it, same with COD 4. Wait, Bioshock had a wrench, Half Life had a crowbar. Hmm, apparently short melee weapons are more popular then I remembered. Therefore this game has accomplished nothing. Nothing new, different or remotely good out of this demo and the game just looks like a big long version of the demo with some crappy flamethrower and a sniper rifle.

If you are like me, I do not recommend the game at all, but try the demo it is worth playing because I hated this game before and after the demo I hate it even more.
