However, it lacks the craft you expect in a next gen AAA launch title even though you will enjoy the action packed visually stimulating campaign and multiplayer. Well done Guerrilla.KillZone: Shadow Fall has the tech prowess, crunchy single player campaign, even character movement is seamless, and at 60 fps it has some ridiculously good lighting effects. The first Killzone game is still my favourite, but Killzone Shadow Fall is the best from the series. It's gorgeous, fun to play, much longer than the others FPS launch titles (*cough*CoD BF4*cough*), the storyline is well written, the OST is very good as well, etc. The multiplayer is also very fun, and you can make your own rules, on the maps you've chosen, and trust me, if you're into MP, you'll spend dozens of hours playing. The campaign is 9-12 hours long, and it's quite a ride, for sure. It's not as manichean as it was before, and this is also a very good thing. Yes, the Helgast are a threat, but the Vektans are far from being "clean" in this war. The storyline is better than the previous Killzone games, but still far from perfect: it has a few action movie cliché, but it's still very nice: the war is more subtle, no more "nobrain" charges and no more bad guys and good guys. Each side of the Wall (You'll figure out what this is by playing the game) has its own atmosphere, and it's just eargasmic. The OWL is another interesting add to the game, but I feel like it may be a little bit too effective sometimes. Well, you can still do it, but you can also be more sneaky, and it's just great. No more running towards any Hellgast you'll see. Some might complain about the fact that it has lass action and more exploration, but in my opinion, it was a very good choice. Then, I really appreciate the fact that Guerrilla didn't want to make the same Killzone as the 3 first before Shadow Fall. Everything is just beautiful, and I caught myself quite a lot of time just looking at the view. Not only the technical part of the graphics, but also the artistic direction. Not only the technical part of Why is this game the best game possible for the PS4 launch I'll tell you why. Why is this game the best game possible for the PS4 launch I'll tell you why. Just a perfect launch title, a franchise we know and love but with the perfect twist to usher in the new generation. Multiplayer is back with a vengeance and will keep you coming back for hours on end, I need not tell you more. I felt fully immersed in this world, only taken out of it by some small and rare slip ups from the AI system. It's here to give you a mindless thrill ride and it does it effortlessly. This is Killzone, this isn't here to win an academy award.

Sure it has it's cliche action movie set pieces that you know like the back of your hand, but what do you expect. I need not tell you how stunning this game is, but instead the gameplay feels fresh, the story is a thrilling new take on war, using a cold war setting rather then throwing you head first into a hot war. I need not tell you how A worthy launch title for the Playstation 4, if this is the start of next gen then things can ONLY get better. A worthy launch title for the Playstation 4, if this is the start of next gen then things can ONLY get better.
