best thing about Killzone 2!

ok, everyone pull your opinions out of your asses and type em down. i wanna see what you think makes this game stand out among the plethora of first person shooters that are swarming the market.
with me, its the AI. this is by far the smartest AI ive ever seen in any game. you never have the same firefight twice. you cant use abstract techniques (like running up to em and slappin them with your gun) to cheese your way through them, they usually have a counter for anything you try. they strategize to get to you. i was under cover tryin to pick off a couple of guys from a distance, but they sent one guy to flank me and he took me down before i could get him. and various other reactions make it feel like your playin up against another actual person. and bump the difficulty up to hard and youve got one of the toughest challenges ever. the AI in Killzone 2 makes the Halo AI look mentally retarded.

now, your input, what makes this game stand out from the other FPS's

damn, nobody has anything to say about this game? this is trully what 'next-gen' is for fps and i think this (along with Metal Gear and Little Big Planet) is the start of a great wealth of actual 'new' games to come out for PS3. i bet that by the end of the year PS3 will have some of the best games anyone has ever seen.

It's given nothing new aside from incrementally improved graphics all washed out in pretty much the same colours.

The best thing about Killzone 2? Brian Cox !!!

But seriously there were features in the 1st game that were removed which I felt disappointed with:

-secondary or alt fire for your weapons (what happen the assault rifle cum grenade launcher?)
-no more quick time melee attacks (just walk up to Helghast and press the X button and you're done)

MASSIVE SPOILERS!!!
MASSIVE SPOILERS!!!

Colonel Radec shooting Templar point blank in the chest, pulling him towards him as he does it. I stared open-mouthed at the screen when I first saw this.

Almost right, Sean Pertwee and Brian Cox is the correct answer :)

Visari's speeches. Too bad that Rico killed him....

Don't touch the watch.

The Helghast, surely? Visari's speeches are great. I now hate the ISA and wish I could join the Helghast forces. Colonel Radec (what is it with this game - everyone seems to be a Colonel: Templar, Hakha, Cobar, Radec - who should have been a general or at least a brigadier) is incredibly cool.

Playing the game on Veteran difficulty is a great (though sometimes infuriating) experience. Firefights last for ages; you really feel that every inch of ground counts. The AI is particularly impressive. Rush in and the Helghast will slaughter you. Wait around and they'll come after you.
