Assuming these sources are correct, and I've no reason to doubt it as the graphics in the intro seem on a par with the graphics in some of the gameplay videos/screenshots, then the intro gives a very good idea of what the game will look like graphically (although obvisiously the cutscenes will benefit from a 3rd person cinematic perspective and maybe the odd lighting tweak - much like MGS4's cutscenes which were also very close in quality to the actual gameplay sections). So on that basis I'm not exactly sure what more it can do to make you impressed, or maybe you're like some other people I know that will never be impressed until it has an Xbox 360 logo on the box! In terms of 'gameplay' as in how the game plays, no video will give you that, you'll only know what that's like from the demo... @ Ton Capone, actually it’s been reported multiple times that KillZone 2 contains NO CGI and that all the cutscenes, including this intro, are rendered in real time using the game engine.

The second is the repetitive dialogue, the amount of times I have heard "We need support" "suck on this" & "That's messy man" is frankly laughable. I hope in my heart of hearts that this is not going to be a concern in KZ2s single player campaign. Apart from that I am very excited, as Sony need a solid exclusive Fps, and R2 never quite delivered for me... & Haze was frankly a pile of dung with a cherry on top. Have seen a fair few clips, but now I am starting to back off. I don't want to risk getting too overeager. But think me playing KZ1 will make me very grateful when I do get my mitts on 2.

No hype=No dissapointment.. Infact maybe SCEE PR could use that in one of their 'its best to be last' soundbites.

A pre-rendered intro which is not even close to an indication of what the actual gameplay is like. No threespeech I am not impressed yet, because as your own title even states, this is an intro.

I'm so looking forward to this game, even more so now! I hope the ending is as good as the intro! And is that Brian Cox doing the voice acting? Always a bonus to get some quality actors in for the characters. It's so easy to ruin a good game with rubbish voice acting! If the rest of the game is as cinematic then this is the killer title the PS3 has been waiting for! Sony certainly seem to think so since they've plumbed £4M into a UK ad campaign - £2M of that just for KillZone 2! Wow with a capital WOW!
