The ice levels! We remember when Sony first showed us the ice levels. "This doesn't look like Killzone 2," we said. "Presumably your location researchers found their way out of Milton Keynes after all then." Perhaps they used jetpacks – as Sev and Rico end up doing as they blow up boats or whatever.

"For anyone who found the relentless march of Killzone 2 to be one-note drudgery, this sudden burst of attention-deficit gameplay ideas may well prove enticing. Certainly, there's not much to complain about where the mechanics are concerned. Guerrilla is squeezing the PS3 for all its worth and, a couple of frame rate wobbles and NPC quirks aside, everything looks as gorgeous as a war-ravaged toxic planet can realistically be," was what we had to say about the visuals.

"The two-man hero team of Sevchenko and Rico help to hold the sprawling tale together, aided by some impressive mo-cap and better-than-average voice performances. However, they're rather overshadowed by the double whammy of theatrical ham supplied by Ray Winstone and Malcolm McDowell as power-hungry Helghan officers vying to take over from the deceased Visari." Winstone! McDowell!

Chapter 5: Icy Incursion

Frozen Shores

After being rescued by Rico, you and the raiders head up the snowy coast towards a couple of small rigs with some gun emplacements on them, kill troops and take out the supports, while you circle around with a mini-gun.

Shipwreck

You and Rico have been shot down, and must clear through a few troops on your way to a rig where you will be evacuated by the raiders. Take out the reinforcements on jetpacks before you you are picked up by Jammer.

Akmir Rig

Jetpack-boost your way from iceberg to iceberg as you try to head onto this big rig undetected. Take out the defence troops as you fly around to finally set a charge below the AA gun and allow the raiders to come in and assist you.

Nilfrost Rig

Jetpack about and take out any Helghast as you go to the supporting pillars to destroy this larger rig, again to allow for safe passage of the raiders. Jetpack troops and ground Helghast try to stop you as you set both charges and have three mins to escape before the rig goes down. Boost back up to the top and escape the rig.

Providence Bay

Your unit is pinned down. You need to take out the big guns before you can get through. You and Rico go around and take out the troops in a few buildings and then out onto the top, where you take out the turrets with some heavy machinery.

Providence Station

Head up the ramp taking cover from the tanks and troops as you progress towards the cable care, taking out a couple of buildings' worth of troops.
