Killzone. Ah Killzone, so much potential pissed down the drain. The main characters past the first game become so incredibly stupid that it almost makes me want to sympathize with the Helghast. I say "almost" because they really just can't stop being Space Nazis at any point ever. It's like they're trying to impress us with how fascist they are being. Which is funny because you could definitely read the plot of Killzone 1 as being a fascist narrative itself. I don't think the corporation's being family owned is supposed to make them sympathetic. I think it's supposed to scream "monarchy" or maybe "oligopoly". The people who dislike corporations and portray them as evil tend to think of the very wealthy people who often own them as the new aristocracy. We aren't seeing sentimentality over mom and pop shops via Stahl and Visari in my opinion. The only reason I can think to have any coloring at all on your scope is some kind of tinting to reduce glare. I'm pretty sure said tinting wouldn't make the world look like piss. Edit: Also Shadow Fall is pretty much crap gameplay and a story that only works if you assume everyone involved are astonishingly stupid.

I was really more mystified by his enjoyment of Killzone than his dislike of Gears.

In fairness to Killzone, the first game was acceptable. Not great, but not bad for its time. Does anyone know how well the various games have performed financially? They're just so utterly middling to bad that I can't understand why they keep getting sequels.

The gameplay in Shadow Fall is samey shooter fare that does nothing to make up for the incredibly dumb plot. Funny story, I've owned three of the killzone titles, but I didn't buy any of them. Pretty much played through each once and never touched them again.

Well then maybe Shadow Fall is one of the scripts he threw out because it wasn't good enough. Every game after the first one has an incredibly dumb plot, Blind Sally knows this. He's lying to you all.

To be fair to crow, these games suck.
