Killzone 2 is on sale NOW ... if you fancy popping over to Dubai photo

If you fancy getting your hands on Killzone 2 early, be aware that dozens of copies have been found for sale. All you need to do is hop on a plane to Dubai first. Yes, as with any high profile title, street dates have been thoroughly smashed, with one particularly lucky customer blowing the whistle.

"I couldn't believe myself when I first saw it in a local videogame store," said the happy Killzone fan. "It was Killzone 2 the full game. 2 weeks before the release date. The salesman told me that they managed to bring only 70 copies of Killzone 2, and they all sold out in just 5 hours..."

Early promo versions of the game went on sale via eBay, but as we discussed yesterday, those particular discs appear to have no online capabilities. So far, it would seem that stores in the US and UK have managed to keep a lid on the game that is causing chaos and misery on message boards across the Internet. 

Obviously, Dubai is biased against Killzone 2 being sold on the proper release date. What a Microsh*tting fagtart.

Why not release it earlier? What does a street date provide when you are able to ship things 3 weeks prior to release? 1 week, fine, but if you ship things 3 weeks early, it is bound to be broken and 3 weeks is too much.

He also forgot to mention KZ2 will sell over 90 million copies in the first week of release.

Very biased

Stores actually get a sizable fine for doing this.
In the financial times of today, that could send game stores on a one way road to shut town.

I am going to be getting alot of games for my ps3 finally lol. Gran Turismo 5, Street Fighter (I bought soul Calibur V for my xbox 360 BIG MISTAKE ITS SHIT), Final Fantasy XIII and versus, Killzone 2, Dragon Age (maybe), Bioshock 2(maybe), God of War 3 hell ya baby. The ps3 3 just took a while for its engine to go spinning that is all.

That's cause the PS3 is running on the Killzone2 "weighted delay turning engine"......

Oh yeah I went there.

Killzone 2 is going to be reallly pretty but over-rated and generic shooter. But I am going to buy it, in America.
