Killzone 2 for the PS3 is currently the most over-hyped and over-rated video game I own. I bought it launch week and have only played the game a couple times. I really loved the graphics and thought the lighting effects were really good, but this wasn’t the 10/10 and 9.5/10 game everyone said it was going to be. The controls are a little funky and aiming flat out sucks. What really bothers me is the fact that this could have been a truly epic game for me, but the controls are the main aspect I really just can’t get around. I was annoyed with the game after a few hours on it. That rarely happens with FPS games and me. Whenever I do load up the game, I find myself wishing I was just playing some Resistance or Halo instead.
The only reason I hold on to it is in hopes that I somehow get motivated to play through the entire game and find some redeeming factors. Right now, I simply don’t have the motivation or interest in Killzone 2. I certainly feel like it’s the most over-hyped game in my collection at this time.

After completing the campaign and some online play. I haven’t gone back to play aside from getting some easy trophies. I did like the game and its visuals, but perhaps I enjoy the speed and controls of Resistance or Call of Duty better.

Agreed. Even Resistance 1 is more enjoyable. This game had the chance to be killer, but they really screwed up with the controls and some gameplay aspects. Certainly not the 10/10 some places gave it
