Sony moved Killzone 2 to February 2009 so that it won't be competing with other Sony titles at retail...
SCEA's Senior PR Manager, Ron Eagle, has explained Killzone 2's delay on Sony's US Playstation.blog site. It appears that the delay was a marketing decision rather than one concerning the development status of Guerrilla's shooter.
With four other big Sony titles scheduled for release during the busy Fall release window (two of which are shooters), SCEA apparently took the decision to push back Killzone 2 purely for marketing reasons. Eagle explained the decision on the PlayStation.blog forums:
"To be clear, there is nothing wrong or causing a delay to the development of the title. We (SCEA) had to look at the fall calendar with SOCOM, LittleBigPlanet, MotorStorm: Pacific Rift, Resistance 2, plus some PSN titles and make a decision where each game should come out. Killzone 2 was moved to Feb 2009 to make sure we didn't have three shooters in the marketplace competing for retail dollars during the same holiday season. The game will be great and it will be out in Feb 2009 in both Europe and North America."
Given that Killzone 2 will be sparing with Resistance 2 for the most eagerly anticipated of the three shooters noted above, we've got to ask the obvious question: why not simply push back SOCOM instead and bring Killzone 2 to core fans as soon as possible?

All platforms have their benefits and none of them are toys. When I was a kid, that's the first thing my dad would say to me after buying me a console that cost hundreds of pounds.
"And remember," he'd say. "Be careful with it - it's not a toy."

Post No: 609 your right PC isnt a gaming console becuase it aint a toy like your [#@!?]ty consoles. A console is a toy and nothing more.

post:no 612: they're probly gonna stup future produtin because its so good that there dosen't need to be anymore development. It ahead of the 360 for sure... a 360 disc holds 6-7 gb's of data were as a ps3 disk holds 35 gb's of data.. so you tell me which can hold more ,ps3 is the clear winner. With more space ps3 has more details.And what idiot's pay to go online..360!!!Ps3 is free online so shut the hel upp

and left for dead looks like crap i'm sorry but i seen some horrible graphics and this tops it.i think a ps2 could play this fine lol killzone is diff than ur first person shooters.to me its better than halo gears and even call of duty.it just gives u so much variety.I've played all these games so this is not just me saying whatever.i mean bulky slow hard to aim gears an same gun over and over on halo and call of duty is alright but killzone so diffrent story.AWESOME GAME HANDS DOWN. If u have not played it rent it or buy it wth u doing.you wont be dissapointed.

If that was so true why dont halo or even gears even look as half as good as killzone 2 i mean have u seen killzone on a lcd 1080p tv i mean it looks so much better than halo or gears.Trust me it couldnt happen.well actually it could but u kno the graphics would not look as good.

oh and just to further that point where on the ps3 is left 4 dead (you know that realy good zombie fest shoot em up that can only grace machines that can actually handle this game) not on ps3 maybe cause it sucks.

lol post 605 if the ps3 is so much better than 360,wii,pc ect why is it that activision are thinking about pulling the plug on future ps3/psp development.

i also agree with the person below my other post lol, he knows what hes on about.
i do think K2 would be able to go to 360 but somehow i doubt sony would give MS killzone away just like that, i rekon MS would need to give a game like gears of war or halo to them first lol =P
