awesome trailer, and very cool looking maps. kinda wish i put more time into killzone 2's MP tbh. i was so busy when it came out i just didnt have the time to play it. and now i fear i've left it to a point where everyone will be pro's and i wont have a chance (kinda like a noob trying to play warhawk)

Errr if im not mistaken it's 2 maps, and the price you stated is still cheap in this BS DLC that developers throw at us.....
Still im not moaning it looks awesome, KZ2 for me has really kicked the FPS up a gear.
Ugh just checked it's $5.99. Oh well hope you guys have fun with it. I'll probably pick it up when it's cheaper. Having too much fun with FO3 right now anyways.
Good maps but, like most of the online crowd, I got bored with KZ2 after a short while and still think CoD WaW is more fun and that games new map pack i'm sure will be more worth while.
Still nice to see the Killzone fans getting some new maps. I might buy it just to see if I can get into the game again.

This is way off-topic but i know what you mean. I recently bought CoD 4: MW ( Have no idea why it took me so long..) and let me tell you, im gettin' my ass kicked so hard out there that it's not even funny! - my kill/death ratio is about 1 to 4 on a average cos' my mates think the only proper way to play the game is on Hardcore-mode...

Hardcore is awful.. but you get all the necessary perks and unlocks very early on in Call of Duty 4. I still think this RPG progression stuff is sorta BS though. I don't play FPS to grind my "skills" up.
Help!!! I downloaded the first pack it installs but when i try to launch the game with new maps it says: "you need to download the Steel and Titanium map pack". Have anyone got the same problem? This is why i doubt about downloading this content.

Make sure your game's region matches the store you bought it from.
PS3 games aren't region locked but DLC is.

The water effects are awesome.
those volumetric dust clouds at 00:17 totally leave crysis behind(at least cryEngine 3 for consoles).
its amazing how much they can pour in with this engine's modification. partical effects, light scattering and character properties are just uncomparable.

^ Very true. Crysis does things on a huge scale that other games on a small scale can't do. I always wonder why Helgan is so damn windy though. I also wonder if the game would look half as good without said wind blowing stuff around and distracting the eye, lol...

seeing as not all the levels are windy, i'd say yes it does look just as good. although the wind makes things a whole new level of impressive. it's a jaw dropping game no-matter what's going on.
No it doesn't leave Crysis behind. After 2 years there still isn't any game that matches the graphics of Crysis. Ofcourse after 2 years there still isn't a single GPU graphics card that can run Crysis at 60 fps.
That doesn't mean Killzone 2 doesn't look great. But comparisons with Crysis are doomed to fail.
Ive played both...in art + tech KZ2 impressed me as much as crysis...its just so intense

Come on, we all know the fact that Crysis is using almost an infinite level of assets. had those RAM and GPU specifications available to Guerilla games, Crysis would have been history for Crysis is vastly an unoptimized game. the water is still total a shader thing without any true water physics.

yes that technology is named Ocean Wave Technology. but damn, its nowhere near 3D. I know they are calling it that but I've yet to see that. there is a lot of hidden stuff happening in crysis but with visuals effects that could be done on PS2. like if you shoot sludge drum, the black oil that comes out is exactly the same as the darkness out of a Colossus in Shadow of the Colossus.
and upon that, crysis uses sooo much more resources than Killzone 2 or GT5. with Crysis' resources it should've looked ultra-photoreal and this and that. but its nowhere near that.
