Customer Reviews

good but could be better
this was a fun game and everything but it's just a little meh could be better but it's easy to play and fun. so buy if your into KillZone but if not then don't

Disappointing
Killzone Liberation is a third person action game viewed from above, so fans of the original PS2 Killzone should make note of the change in viewpoint. This is a reasonable game but despite having lots of action I do think it all gets a bit tedious after a while.

The presentation of the game is good - the opening cinematic sequence is awesome - and the graphics are small but nicely detailed. However the levels I've played so far seem a bit bland - there is little replay value to them. The design of the levels isn't perfect, making you retrace your steps quite a lot. The scenery and environments, although nicely detailed, so far aren't particularly exciting or varied from what I've seen.

There is limited variation in the enemies you face(a criticsm I would throw at the original PS2 Killzone too), meaning lots of identikit enemies and therefore few surprises. Killzone Liberation is challenging and okay for a quick blast but I'm finding myself losing interest in it already and I've only had it a few days - that can't be the sign of a truly good game.

A quick mention on the controls - they're reasonable but can get a bit fiddly, mostly due to the lack of a decent lock-on system (shooting at enemies can feel a bit clumsy because your character doesn't always lock-on to them when he should and it's almost impossible to aim accurately without the lock-on doing what it should).

Pros: Nice graphics and decent presentation
Cons: Bland level design, wayward lock-on system, little variety in gameplay

Overall, this game is quite disapointing, particularly after all the favourable press I have seen on it. It's far from an awful game but it's just not all that exciting which is what an action game should be. Plenty of action which is fun for a while but little variety to the gameplay means it all starts to get a bit boring alarmlingly quick.

Quite hard!
This game is brilliant throughout the levels and is one of the most fun games available on psp. There is a demo of this game on www.yourpsp.com and extra levels available from killzone.com.
