Games radar has an in depth and completely over the top preview of Killzone 2.  Killzone 2 was almost everything we’d hoped for, and miles ahead of what we secretly feared – not bad, for a relatively tame third level. The primary emotion, relief, was soon replaced with a tingling delight that Sony had lived up to the standards of that …
