I definitely think its worth a try - great visuals and action packed. I wasnt a big fan of the controls either but its not a killer. COD:MW2 on xbox was the last fps i played and I thought it was just as fun as pc but i think the xbox controller suits shooters better than the ps3.

I appreciate that you can admit you are a fanboi and still remain objective; very few people can do that. You just like Halo, and even though I do not like it, I know it is a good game for many reasons.

Long live critical thought!
It is lacking in so many people, especially in many game reviewers these days.

What i love about Halo has more to do with Bungie. Check out the Halo Reach thread here on MyGaming. From a MP and Player investment point of view they are so far ahead of the pack. Where Mw2 gives u a 4 hour SP and then MP. Halo has always given a good 6 to 8 hour game, then u have the skulls to find, MP is amazing. Did u know that they guyz over at bungie has a differnt event on every weekend where players can get douple xp. Completely different modes and the like. Bungie also loves its Fans. Giving ODST players a free invite to the Reach Beta is simply awesome. And if u look at the changes made to the system its all things that players wanted to change.

Do your self a favor and get the Halo the Fall of Reach Novel. It is one of the best uses of a set IP i have ever read. Since it serve as a prequel to the original. The Halo universe is very rich, some one once called it the Star Wars of the Video Game generation. (Not me though Star Wars is the SHIT)
But its not everybody's cup of coffee. The story can be a bit hard to follow if u missed Halo 1 & 2 (which most in SA would have since we didn't have the original xbox) and its not exactly the most complex of plots. But the, what has been called, the 5 min of fun repeated over and over mechanic Halo introduced us too hooked many players. that "Holy Shit did u see wat i just did!" But yeah,

That could also be it u know. I had just gotten the PS3 when i played KZ2 and the controller was not agreeing with me.

Killzone 2 is visually very impressive, but that's where it ends.

The controls are really poorly implemented. The story and characters are forgettable. The AI is very impressive though.

All in all it's a glorified tech demo for the console and not really a meaty game at the end of the day.

I loved call of duty 4 but i was a bit dissapointed by how short it was i was hoping it would be a lot longer, but dont worry killzone 2 is a much longer game and is very good, i would give it a 8 out of 10, the graphics are absolutely stunning and they are only something like 25% of the ps3s capability, as well as that the online mode is fantastic,
