Killzone 3

Date played: July 16th
Platform: Playstation 3
Time played: 60 minutes
Session fun rating: 9/10

Well, I decided to buy Killzone 3.  I had liked the second game's campaign so I figured that I couldn't really go wrong with this one.  I also thought that maybe, the multiplayer could replace Call of Duty for me, at least for a little while.

I played through about an hour of the campaign and holy shit, there was a lot of action.  I did weapons testing in a Helghast ship, I silently slit some Helghast throats, I escorted a convoy, I watched two giant exoskeletons fight to the death (FUCKING AWESOME), I shot dudes with a shotgun pistol and I sniped some orange-eyed motherfuckers in the face.


So far, I'm really liking this game.  One thing that I need to point out is that this is easily one of the best looking games ever made.  I mean, yes it's grey and brown but holy shit, it's a beautiful grey and brown.  The lighting effects in particular are breathtaking.  I can't wait to play more of it!
