Page 1 of KillZone 3 & Playstation +

Firstly,  Thanks to Mikkey for recommending the Killzone 3 multi-player demo :)

downloaded it & had a few games,  didn`t do very well lol :)  but i never do at first, i get stuck when i need to change controller layout etc,  & heres a tip if you go into KZ3 after playing call of duty,  before you start, change the controller layout to "alternate",  as it`s almost exactly the same as the COD games :) 

Graphics wise, it`s excellent,  very nice very fast,  although, i would like to see higher controller sensitivity,  the default is 30%, & even at 100% it`s a bit slow turning around & straffing etc (thats on the fragnstein controller) 

the things i`m not keen on are the loadout screens,  they are pig ugly, & the create a class equivalent  looks almost identical to Bad company 2 (which i never bothered to figure out how to use lol)  but in game, it`s fast & furious,  & the gameplay oddly reminds me of Halo 3..  but i dunno why,  as it looks nothing like it,  just feels that way...  but thats not a bad thing :)

Now, the PSN+ bit,  when i tried to download the single player demo, it wouldn`t let me, as it`s a PSN+ exclusive :/   anyhooo....  i had about £30 in my PSN wallet, so i figured i`d try the 90 day "pass"  for £11.99,  i`ll let you guys know if i think it`s worth it....


Last thing,  does anyone know if i`ll lose the content i download from PSN+ if i don`t reneww after the 90 days ?

Just played the single player demo through,  & all i can say is.... WOW,,,,,,,  i rarely play campaign modes,  in fact the only ones i`ve played through in years are halo 3 & MW1,  i prefer a fantasy backdrop if playing single player, & KZ3 is incredible.. GFX wise,  it`s Easily the best i`ve seen on the ps3, & by a long distance..  maybe crysis 2 will challenge it, but nothing currently out there comes close :)

EDIT=  Just a heads up if any of you use the fragnstein (think i`m the only one lol)  on the single player theres a bit where you need to set explosives, & you use the motion sensor in the pad,  & whilst the frag has this built in, it cant seem to turn enough to set them correctly,  i had to switch to my sixaxis then swap back once i set the explosives.....  a bit of a pain,  but i tried playing the game with the pad & failed big time lols :(   so i`ll stick to the frag ;)  it`s worth the minor messing about when i need to use explosives..

I only had a few goes before the other half started on that I shouldn`t let the kids watch me play it.
I did point out that they weren`t both watching... one of them also had a controller and was having a crack at it himself, but she still made me switch off. Weird.

Anyway, I`ll def be buying this. Suitably impressed enough to recommend to Ogs straight away...!

i`ll definitely be getting it too.... couldn`t join the online multiplayer for some
reason, but enjoyed killing the bots.... love they way they moan and scream
when you fill `em with lead!

i`ve yet to try it with my move / nunchuck controller, there`s a peripheral coming
out which looks like a fisher price rifle which i think i`ll need tbh. problem is, it`s
nearly £40 on it`s own!!

know what you meant about the "alternate" control method... glad they`ve done
this as i was struggling with the default method.

oh, Chris... MoH has the option to set the controls MW stylee too.

In KZ3, our clan is MAD9     :( some cnut allready took MAD (etc etc to 9 lol)

methinks this is gonna be a popular game...

Had a bit of time to look around PSN+, & tbh,  unless you buy loads of mini`s/themes  then it`s hard to see what value it has :(  i won`t be repeating my subscription.

Crysis 2, Killzone 3 Already hitting BitTorrent
I wouldn`t be interested myself, I remember in PSOne days a mate getting hold of some games early, THPS some of the goals hadn`t been added yet etc, so ended up waiting for proper release as pre-release was so buggy and annoying.

Single player download now available on US PSN store... will be taking a look later. Is apparently huge though.

played the single player and thought it was a bit "meh" tbh, it looks really good in places
and ****e in others. had to seriously ramp up the sensitivity to accomodate my need to
aim quicker. also tried my move controller and couldn`t get on with it on the telly upstairs, though
to be fair, i was only sitting about a metre from the 25" screen!!

i`ll try and give it a blast with the move and bigger telly on friday when i get the full game.

Where`s the best price for this at the mo guys? (I`m too lazy to go and find out for myself ;))
