Sony's press site had been updated with this image of Killzone 2, hopefully followed by more soon. Also worth mentioning, the game has been delayed to February 2009, but I don't think anyone is really surprised. Update: Added 3 more images.
Seriously though, game looks good. Nothing out of this planet, but definitely nice. I got to see some daylight video footage with some nice action going on to really see what this game can provide in terms of visuals and what it's actually all about.
This is supposedly going to be "the true PS3 killer app", so I can imagine Sony doing all they can to get this as solid as possible. Still, the developers have to pull it off in the end, no matter how much time or funding they get...it takes more than that to make a great game and we'll just have to wait and see if Guerilla can make it happen.

All a matter of opinion. MGS4 is my "killer app" for the PS3.

How do they expect us to care about a game coming in 2009? lol
Show us some SOON to be upcoming games Sony!
They did show "soon" games at the show; Resistance 2 was played on stage, though we'll only see screens (the official gameplay premier for regular joe gamers won't be until June 12th? on Gametrailers).
Looks great, I just hope they REALLY improve the shooting mechanic in general like bullet detection, aiming...etc. controls and such from the previous title.
But I knew it was going to be a 2009 title, so I will try to not think of it, but its gonna be hard.

Maybe they'll release a demo.
well they did say there was going to be a public beta this year, but that was back in '07 and since then we've haven't heard anything of it. So who knows

Yeah, looking forward in trying out the beta for sure! I thought it was supposed to release Q1 2008, but I guess plans have changed or something.
The screen looks good... but nothing impressive. The trailer looked way better than that screen (textures are so so) and it doesnt even get near to the infamous CGI they released at first.
This game has come down to the CGI comparisson and I cant see it so damn astonishing as some press sites (like IGN f.e.) or fans claim it to be.
Judging by that screen its a good looking game... but nothing from another galaxy; and it doesn´t prove at all the statement that the Ps3 is "over the top" when compared to the 360.
Anyway, lets hope the game is at least better "gameplay wise" than the first one... which was quite mediocre imho.
The game looks good. This probably isn't KZ2's best shot but it does look good.
What does NOT look good is that 2009 release. Other than MGS4, Sony's 2008 year's lineup is looking slimmer every mont in comparison to the competition.

Looks great, the game really looks best in motion, all the effects that make it look so great don't show up in Screenshots. The animations in particular are excellent.
There's some gameplay trailer floating around, looks fantastic from what I can see, but I've only seen a tiny (TINY) res vid of it. Anyone know where to find a higher res one?
