It looks fantastic!!
I’m also VERY excited to hear a tacit confirmation that there will be a co-op mode! My husband and I both have PS3′s and enjoy playing online co-op games together.

… it beats golfing! :)

Since guerilla has more time to finish up the game…

Jeff and or Ron..

Can you please please pretty please pretty pretty please request for a SPLITSCREEN CO-OP component of the game, like that of Haze, Resistance, Halo 3 and Army of Two?

That really makes a game for me as I get to experience the campaign with my gamer dad.

I don’t know if it is already in the works..But this would be an incredible addition to a title I’m lookikng forward to..

Thanks..

Ron – Thanks for the candid response regarding why Killzone 2 was postponed to February of 2009. And I think that was a very wise decision. I am very much looking forward to Resistance 2 and Killzone 2. Hopefully you guys can get some great trailers together like Assassin’s Creed and Gears of War had.

My biggest question is will there be offline campaign co-op and possibly online co-op would be nice as well. But seriously this game needs offline co-op. I dont know why alot of developers nowadays are making shooters just single player. Its better playing with a friend sitting next to you in my honest opinion.

I love the interview, it came out nicely. Also thanks to this review we finally got to see the intro of the level, since we all started watching when the game was already playable.

I like how Steven is looking for solutions to the AI, I think it should be interesting if your fellow AI could kill certain amount of enemies that are not your target and are shooting at you. Yet it should be also cool if they run out of ammo, then you and your friend AI have a conversation, something like: “Damn… I run out of Ammo! How much do you have left?!” and then your character responds something depending on how much ammo you have and you are given the option of keep the ammo or actually give some. It gives a sense of team work IMO, specially if the Enemy AI is challenging and hard to kill.

Oh well, this is just something I thought while seen the interview, I hope to see this game running in my PS3 when it comes out! Props for the great interview and to Guerrilla for this great game!

Just wanted to add a quick reply on the \”delay\” of Killzone 2 to Feb 2009. To be clear, there is nothing wrong or causing a delay to the development of the title. We (SECA) had to look at the fall calendar with SOCOM, LittleBigPlanet, MotorStorm: Pacific Rift, Resistance 2, plus some PSN titles and make a decision where each game should come out. Killzone 2 was moved to Feb 2009 to make sure we didn\’t have three shooters in the marketplace competing for retail dollars during the same holiday season. The game will be great and it will be out in Feb 2009 in both Europe and North America.

Hope this helps – alot of times we gamers read delay and think something is wrong, in this case, it was a pure management decision.
