I can't wait. @amidos, Kablooey is another term for explosions, though not necessarily the fiery kind. It'll make more sense with the trailer perhaps. :) @ashkan, indeed GM8 is bringing lots more to the table. I can’t wait.

P.S playbasic is a good 2D engine and torque game builder is the best 2D game development engine. very good effects chubs.

I'd have to argue that art style > everything. Thankfully, Killzone 2 has a really lovely art style, in my opinion. But yeah, agree with blueflare here. It looks great! I especially like the sunset.
