First face-kicking Killzone 3 trailer hits

The first official trailer for Killzone 3 hit theEuropean PlayStation blogearlier today, and it highlights one of the sequel's coolest new additions: the more elaborate close-quarters kills we talked up inour hands-on preview last week, rendered here in super-stylized, extra-brutal slow motion:

After graduating from college in 2000 with a BA in journalism, I worked for five years as a copy editor, page designer and videogame-review columnist at a couple of mid-sized newspapers you've never heard of. My column eventually got me a freelancing gig with GMR magazine, which folded a few months later. I was hired on full-time by GamesRadar in late 2005, and have since been paid actual money to write silly articles about lovable blobs.
