  • backwards GOOO!

  • How is this open for 13yr olds, when the game is rated MATURE???

    Please answer this one SCEA/Jeff, lmfao.

  • More than half of you who have said, “This game is rated M, how can 13 year olds enter this tourney?” are under 17. I’d bet my life on it.

    Anyway, the rating has nothing to do with how old contestants have to be. These ratings are recommendations, not the law. Yes, the consumer of the product must be over 17, but it’s simply the matter of a parent giving consent to his/her child to play this game. Therefore, you don’t have to be 17 or older to play this game, nor enter a tournament.

  • Good luck to everybody who competes in this tournament. Man in this economy I could sure use an $8000 suit to sell on e bay, just kidding if I won their is no way in **** I would sell out. I would be a Helgahst every Halloween from here on out.

    Thanks again Kill Zone team.

  • I am wondering about the specifics with the downloadable content. Is it content available for everyone else but they will have to pay or is it completely exclusive to the few winners of the tournament. If it is exclusive, can you give us any sort of hint as to what it is?

  • WooHoo

    Way to go, alienating the rest of the world once again

    developed and made in europe, favouritism in the US

    Pathetic

  • i realy enjoyed the KZ2 with the devs last week.
    but if yous do it again word of advice make it easier to find the games.

    i spent 30 minutes playing the game having the time of my life.
    and the other 90 minutes cursing my head off because i couldent find the games.
    why were they not where they normaly are.
    i searched every where for the game names and couldent find them, if it wasent for a friend on my friends list being in the game i would of never found it.
    yous need to get organised for these things.
    and its pretty embarassing to organise something big like this than have server issues, its like going to E3 showing some GOW3 gameplay than have the ps3 break.
    idea was there but the execution was realy poor.

  • Can we expect something like this in the EU?

  • So…the game is dutch….it’s made in Europe and this is US only?

    Sick and tired of this.

  • Why is it U.S. only? What about Canada? Like foreal its not like we’re across the sea or something, we’re like literally glued to you guys and you still exclude us, thats messed up I would think things would have changed by now but it seems I was wrong.

  • And about the across the sea thing im not trying to exclude EU, just trying to prove a point.

  • Awesome a Tournament at last!!! cant wait for the Steel & Titanium Pack. Will those maps be used in the Tournament?
    @14, 17: The little kids really are annoying…. but they don’t play well at all. Beat em around long enough and they try to cuss you out and then quit. =P

  • lol @ all the poeple saying add me PSN: (psn here) it already tells us who u are… xD

  • sorry, let me rephrase that…

    US residents only? no love for your northern neighbors Canada? right i forgot the world revolves around the US… screw you.

  • why not Europe ?? WHY?!?! :S :S :S

  • yer the EU are here to you know

  • It looks like a lot of Euro people reads this blog :D

  • oh oh oh!! let me guess!! US only right?
