Announced one year then pushed back the next, a game might change hands, release dates, even whole studios before it sees the light of day…maybe. I Am Alive is a recent example.

Going into this review, I had not played any of the previous Killzone titles or had any idea about the characters or storyline... more.

The last action RPG I really got stuck into was Dragon Age 2 and it left me a little disappointed. It was no Dragon Age: Origins, sure the fighting was faster paced and more action orientated but it felt an overall more shallow experience.
