According to Sony, "A game that’s four years in the making deserves one hell of a launch. This is that Launch.
Killzone 2, the webgame."
What you have to do is to register at
Killzonewebgame.com. Then you've got to "install a quick plug-in for your browser". After that any compatible web pages you visit will have the evil (or maybe just misunderstood) Helghast all over it... and you can fight them.
"When you visit a site where the Helghast are waiting, engage them and its battle time. Your cursor becomes a crosshair and your browser is the battleground. Wherever you are. Whatever you’re doing. It’s kill or be killed. (don’t worry, it’s easy to opt out of a battle, if you really want to). Multipliers. Head shots. Hidden explosive devices. They’re all there for the taking. And if you miss your target, your rounds will still tear chunks out of the page behind them", says Sony.
Armed with your ID, your pals can join you.
Here's what you need to know:
- The plug-in is available for both Firefox (v3) and Internet Explorer (6 & 7).
- The game uses the actual assets from
Killzone 2 - including 3D models of the Helghast.
