Anybody else notice the characters are standing over what appears to be a knockoff of the Marathon symbol? Anybody?

Also, Saboteur looks interesting. Jeff said he was killed later, naturally, but getting the drop on people will be fun perhaps until other players are more familiar with modes and classes.

I'm still looking forward to playing KZ3!

Looks like Resistance 2's Co-Op mixed with TF2.  Can't wait to pick up my pre-order, however the prospect of your turrets staying up even if you change class scares me.

Cool.  I liked the previous solution of using stick figure animations for the boring parts.  This jumped around too much.

Limiting you to 3 minutes of footage seems counter-intuitive. I can understand for the single player, but for multiplayer, it would really be nice to get a couple of full rounds in to see the changing of objectives in action.

God this game looks amazing.  It's making me rethink about liking shooters again and whether or not I should buy a PS3.

Sure do wish it was out for the 360, maybe then I'll stop relying on Shadowrun for my online shooter fun.

Wow. If I had a PS3 this would be a buy.
It looks like it is faster than Halo 3 but slower than COD4, which is not a bad thing at all.

The multiplayer looks like a cross between Team Fortress and Call of Duty 4... in other words really damn good.  If I were more the type who played multiplayer competitively then this would probably really interest me.  Again I'm finally starting to feel bad about not owning a PS3.  Granted I love my 360 and the games I play on it everyday...but if stuff like this keeps up I might just but a PS3 as well.  Enjoy your game you PS3 owners...looks like I'll be missing out. :(

I'd say this game really isn't Team Fortress 2, aside from the character classes there's really not a whole lot in common with Killzone 2. I'm speaking from extensive beta experience, Killzone 2 has a much larger focus on the more aggressive aspects of a first person shooter and the engineer/medic/saboteur aspects are very secondary in comparison to the likes of TF2. Also, KZ2 is just a whole lot more serious than TF2. It really doesn't feel very similar at all when you're actually playing.

And let's be honest, Team Fortress 2 is not the only game to ever have such character classes in mulitplayer and such. It's just the most recent example for comparison.

I don't quite get the constant need to compare every game to another game. Let them be their own games. All this complaining about Resident Evil 5 and Killzone 2 control wise is ridiculous. So many people out there wanting it to control and feel just like every other game in their respective genres. I mean do these people really know what they're asking for? The minute developers made every game control and feel the same is the minute we want something new and fresh. Let's just realize that before we end up with every game being identical.

Sorry but only being able to show off 3 minute videos of a game is pretty fucking dumb.  Why don't game companies actually want to show off the game they are trying to sell?  Y'know promote it, don't they hire guys for that reason?

I like what you show in this video and stuff but just showing flashes of video with Jeff quickly trying to explain everything that's going on is a bit crappy.  If they'd just allowed more video footage to be released then maybe I'd have a better idea of the game's multiplayer, it looks a bit chaotic at the moment.

To be fair I'm not certain how much weight my comment has, I don't own a PS3 yet.  A dedicated MGS4 machine doesn't sound that appealing to me atm.  I need 5 games I want before I can justify my purchase.
