Today I'll go over what I think of the PS3 exclusive Killzone 3 Beta.
First off, I noticed how beautiful the game looked, the developers have definitely done well with the graphics. Then came the gameplay, it was very fast paced, like any FPS should, however the controls are a bit laggy and unresponsive, which cost me many a gunfight. Also, I noticed like any other FPS, connection is key, so whoever hosted the lobby always did pretty well, this however, was not fun for me, because my bullets would go through whoever was host, and he would assassinate me. The weapons feel very balanced, and the unlock points were a good idea for the
most part.
Overall, I give the Killzone 3 Beta a 4/5 because of the controls amd host problems. Perhaps local search can fix the latter.
Thoughts?

I love the beta. It is so good I canceled my Bulletstorm pre-order and reserved Killzone 3 instead.

I have a feeling I don't even need to play this thing in order to be able to give my first impressions (hell, I think that is how IGN do their reviews), but for once I'll keep my comments to myself and just came here to ask if this really warranted its own thread. We have a perfectly good PlayStation thread, why not post this stuff there?

I love it, controls feel great, I have had no host problems, and just a ton of fun.
The single player demo is freaking fantastic as well.

I can't seem to be able to play it at all. Everytime I'd try to connect online it would just hand at the "connecting" screen.
I can play botzone however, but still...

I can play botzone however, but still... it might just be busier thanks to the weekend. During the week I had no problems, but the day it came out, and Saturday were tough. |

I had problems all last weekend getting it to work, didn't have a problem during the week, though. |

I am glad they decided to do an open beta so close to release, if nothing else it helps them test the server load. I bet there is a day 1 patch or 3.
