To say Killzone 3 is a highly anticipated game is an understatement. This first person shooter whose roots go way back to the PS2 era has been a system seller for the PS3 ever since it wowed critics and audiences with its stellar production values and visceral gameplay. There were some (including myself) who weren’t too thrilled with Killzone 2's control scheme but that was a minor price to pay for a game that brought so much awesome to the table.

Sure beats walking

It seems Polish magazine CD Action got their hands on a review copy of Killzone 3 and as expected, they loved it, giving it a 9/10. Posting scans is illegal so we’ll just go ahead and summarize their review with the pros and cons.

Pros:

One of the most beautiful game worlds
Well-balanced, varied campaign
High level of difficulty
Sharp Shooter + Game on the Move

Cons:

Series deserves a deeper body shape characters
Minor technical mistakes

The translation from Polish to English maybe a bit screwy but y'all get the drift right? On another note, the official Killzone 3 site has a nice write up on all the multiplayer maps that’ll ship with the game. You can read all about that here.

Nash, as he prefers being called, woke up to the wonders of gaming rather late but don't bring that up around him. It's a touchy subject. A self confessed Battlefield veteran, Nash spent a good part of 2010 on the Steam Battlefield - with Bad Company (see what we did there?). He has a zero tolerance policy towards RTS games but is currently showing an interest by picking up and moving people - who he refers to as units - in the office. Thank God he's not that enthusiastic about Angry Birds or we'd be seeing women flying all over the place. Bali... Bali, put the receptionist down now.
