It's amazing when you think about it – the ISA has managed to create flying magic carpet insertion platform things, but judging by all the cut-scenes in Killzone 3, nobody has yet invented an earpiece that can convey intra-company comms without the need to press one's hand against it. We can all appreciate the need to prioritise research and development projects, I'm sure, but come on.

Speaking of which, things are really hotting up at this point in the game, as the Helghast give up on bringing out the big guns and bring out a super-epic mega-gun called the MAWLR, which you can read more about in our Killzone 3 MAWLR hands-on from just before Christmas.

Glancing at which reminds us that Sev's first name is really "Tomas". What would Malcolm McDowell (who did not play the part of the Chewnicorn in Viva Pinata) think about that?

Chapter 8: The Rekoning

Trenches

Move quickly through the trenches taking out some Helghast at close quarters.

MAWLR

Take cover from the onslaught of missiles, mortars and bullets that the MAWLR throws at you throughout this whole skirmish. Take out defence guns and the heating vents, then take out the small ground reinforcement that appears and destroy the rest of this side of the MAWLR.

Freight Elevator

You and the raiders are circling the MAWLR taking out the remaining defence guns and finally the massive energy cannon. Destroy the MAWLR and meet back up with the captain and the rest of the unit.

Ashen Skies

The final push to the elevator by you and the remaining troops. Take out a medium-sized final resistance from the Helghast as you battle to the elevator and blast into orbit.
