Killzone 2 versus Red Faction: Guerilla

Post Reply New Topic

I'm wondering if anyone has noticed that there's at least some degree of similarity between these two games. I sort of perceive that the terrorist cell in Red Faction is similar to the Hellghast in Killzone while the ISA are similar to the EDF in Red Faction. The difference being is that in each of these games you play from the other faction's point of view. Such that in Killzone you play from the perspective of the EDF (or would that rather be the IDF?) and in Red Faction you play from the perspective of the Hellghast. In the original Killzone, General Adam's speech at the final battle of the game tends to lend more credence to this comparison, since the Hellghast propaganda is such that the ISA are the ones being accused of "imperialism" as part of the rallying effort on the planet Hellghan to actually be the thing of which they are accusing the ISA. In Red Faction, you basically are Hamas or the PLA or one of the other terrorist groups going about seeking freedom for you planet by blugeoning and bashing your enemies, the EDF/IDF as well as generally destroying property and other things which are considered necessary for "liberation". Anyhow, has anyone noticed this other than me?

Also, which game do you like better?

I honestly like RF:G better, but that might be somewhat biased as it was the very first game (of 4 that I'd bought)I played when I first bought my 360, and up until then I'd been stuck with my Wii, and it didn't have many decent/good games out then(and yes, I'm including SP and MP games, plus the few decent/good 3rd party titles it had out at the time, plus VC and WW, plus GCN games)

But KZ2 is a great game nonetheless, and KZ3 just looks plain WIN. =D

My wife got a Wii as a wedding present. However, we currently only have Wii Fit and Wii sports resort. The closest thing to a FPS is the archery range and the snowball fight. There's supposed to be a few Call of Duty games for it, but I haven't bought them yet and I kinda am having low expectations for it since the Wii seems to be too easy to play.

I'd try COD for Wii if I was you. I have it(now) and its....decent.

Not like its HD console version's counterparts, but still good, nonetheless.

Also, you might try the Metroid Prime Trilogy(the Wii version...I believe it is in an orange packaging...could be wrong. Just ask them at the counter at GS(not sure if Wal-Mart and Target and whatnot still carry it, but I saw at least 1 copy around a month ago in GS)

Also might wanna try The Conduit.
