Killzone 2 environments: "not just grey urban wasteland"

It appears that dark city slums and warehouses are not the only locations players will visit while exploring the world of Killzone 2.

Speaking on the Official PlayStation forums, Guerrilla Games Q&Q Manager Seb Downie promised users, "[Helgan] is not just grey urban wasteland."

Downie's comments go with EGM's August issue Killzone 2 preview, which states that some levels will highlight the "natural beauty" of Helghan.  While this doesn’t mean that you’ll be taking in grassy hills and crystal blue oceans, it does serve as an indication that players will get a chance to venture outside of the grey cities and tackle different environments than what's been shown in the trailers.

Killzone 2 is set to release this February. Stay tuned for more information.

    That's a big relief... because zero variation would kill off this game imo.

    This will probably be the first game I ever actually pre-order just because this game is some serious hot cheese.  I didn't even pre-order LBP.  Grats Guerrilla.

    So far it seems colours in this game look as dull as in Gears of war.  I wonder why they havent given us something amazing like far cry 1 was in its glory days.  Well i did not like resistance, but somehow this might make me like FPS games in consoles.

    im thinking murky swampy areas, and foggy jungles. And if people actually looked at the screens the colors are very realistic

    Maybe they'll throw in some brown, too!

    Who cares if people are calling it grey? Everyone are just being hypocrites I mean GeOW2 is grey all over and no-one's complaining. People won't buy Killzone 2 for it's colour, if they wanted a game with colour they would be into games like R&C and Uncharted but just buying a game for 'colour' is really stupid. Who is he replying to?
