- Killzone is a first-person shooter exclusive to the PlayStation 2 game console, developed by Netherlands-based Guerrilla Games and released on November 2, 2004 in North America. An emulated version was set to be released on the PlayStation Network on January 24th, 2012 for the PlayStation 3, but it was later announced February 8th, 2012 (via Twitter) that the port has been delayed indefinitely.
The game is set in an era of space colonization where the Helghast Empire has recovered from its defeat in the First Extrasolar War and launched a blitzkrieg against the outer Interplanetary Strategic Alliance (ISA) colony planet Vekta. Vekta's orbital Strategic Defense (S.D.) platforms failed during the initial assault, allowing the Helghast to land swarms of soldiers onto the surface and making it all the more difficult for the outnumbered ISA forces.
In the game, the Helghast are a faction of human descendants who colonized the planet Helghan many generations ago. The planet's harsh environment forced the Helghast to adapt and mutate so much that they can no longer be considered human. They are stronger, faster and more resilient than their human cousins, and possess a burning hatred for humanity. Except for a small number of half-breed Helghast and trained troopers, they require a gas mask and air processing tank that creates air similar to that found on the planet Helghan. Earth, after a serious nuclear war between its nations, formed a major government of the richest surviving governments and industries to explore space colonization, eventually settling a solar system outside of Sol. Alpha Centauri is a system with two planets, the lush and blossoming Vekta, the other rich in energy supply but inhospitable; Helghan. These two planets were purchased by the Helghan Corporation after the UCN (United Colonial Nations) decided to auction them. However, after Helghast's economic policies threatened to undermine the UCN's financial system the UCN invaded Vekta and removed the Helghast after failing to impose financial sanctions. This forced the Helghast to colonize Helghan, a harsh and brutal planet, and deeply resenting the loss of the Vetka.
The player takes control of ISA Captain Jan Templar, who is desperately trying to repel the invasion. Despite the ISA's brave and valiant attempts, they continue to sustain overwhelming losses and the Helghast slowly prevail. Templar and his squad are called back to the base for reassignment. However, the ISA's headquarters is overrun by the overwhelming assault force of the swarming Helghast and a forced evacuation was conducted. Templar managed to hold off the invasion with the help of Marshal Lugar who rescued him from possible assassination in the overrun and abandoned HQ. Templar and Lugar are then sent to find the ISA operative Gregor Hakha, a half-Helghast spy who had acquired data on future Helghast movements. On their way they meet Ricardo Velasquez; another ISA soldier who had just lost his platoon to Helghast forces and had rescued them from a large platoon of Helghast soldiers with a powerful show of fury and aggression when he unsheathed fire from the shadows.
As they meet up with Hakha, the unit discovered that General Stuart Adams, a high ranking ISA officer, was a traitor. When the Earth Defense Fleet (EDF) arrived to assist the Vektan Army, Adams murdered General Vaughan and prepared an ambush for the EDF relief force. A series of climactic and epically titanic conflicts uncoil across the blood-drenched docks and other parts of Vekta as Templar's small unit of specialist soldiers help regroup ISA with strategic strikes across Vekta, helping destabilize the battle plans forged by Helghan. As the battles continue razing wildly, a frantic and despairing General Adams sees his position of power disintegrate as Helghast's main military commander, General Lente, friend of Colonel Hakha and war ally, assumes control of the invasion fleet.
During the invasion, Hakha confronted and killed Lente while the ISA unit was able to call off ECA attacks on the station. Templar and his unit managed to breach and destroy the station and Adams after subduing fanatical resistance. The battle weakened the Helghan, but their grip on the southern parts of Vekta remained unwaveringly strong and resilient as ISA forces regrouped and prepared to finally reclaim their planet.
The scenes conclude ultimately with Lugar and Captain Templar quietly discussing a potential backlash from the Helghast, and Lugar trying to rekindle an old romance possibly with Templar who consumed with anguish over Vaughton's death still, remains oblivious and focused solely on the job at hand.
Fun fact; The Helghan people were the Oppressed in this situation.
They just took retaliation to the next fucking level. Like Holy Shit.
Fun Fact: Helghan are literally modelled after the Nazis.
Exactly, justified
@@eoyourmom Only adds to their righteousness
@@eoyourmom Maybe the Nazis wouldn't have been so over zelous if they weren't given such an oppressive and shit deal after WW1 during the treaty of versailles.
@@eoyourmom they were created when we took un repayable reparations from germany. Lesson, no overbaring treaties of versaille
This is the lesson of “don’t push a people so far that they have nothing to lose”

Scolar Visari: The greatest story never told.
@@supersequence14159 We've been hearing it from the ISA's perspective for far too long.
The West can learn from this lesson.
“The strength in my arms, the holders of my dreams.”
You can't see the tears every soldier is shedding because of the goggles, I swear.
my third FPS Game since HalfLife/Red Faction era
Honers
You can see them lifting their chins in pride
After 13 years stil the best intro, they dont make em like they used to
Tim de Boer All masterpieces of the gaming industry has been made, now everything is just dying.
Tim de Boer no they don't :(
Nah man Geas 2 speech was the best. This is second best tho
Agreed
Sip...
Thoughts of a child are those assuming the ISA was the good people
Thoughts of adults is the reality that Helghan are the true heroes of the day
All hail Helghan!
They must be a special breed of stupid to think that turning ones citizens into rabid attack dogs and nuking their own city out of spite makes them the "gud guys"
Neither side is good, both are bad
@@ALUCARD-us3il Both are a gray area.
@@c0ya1 Yup, the world isn't just black and white, it has a lot of shades between. And every conflicts has a reason, more or less rational, but there's always a reason behind.
Context for ppl out of the know.
Helghast was a private corp who won the auction to colonize new world as the earth gov fail in their exploration.
Helghast became successful, very much to the point that the government felt threatened and began sanctions, embargos, policy restrictions to bring helghast down.
It when to hecc after more border disputes and thus the military stepped in to seize their planet. Helghan ppl are evicted from their home and forced a planet colony to live in a inhabitable moon.
They were mistreated, angry, cornered. What for? For being better than the government that should be protecting them. 3 military ships vs planetary anti piracy force.
They felt wronged. They were wronged. Now in face of a slow death on a moon with their enemy living on the planet they made habitable they have 2 choices.
Die slowly or fight.
One of the best speeches and openings of all time. Iconic and will be forever remembered.
Im from saudi arabia i love this game 💗😴
Yea man it’s been so loooong😢
They made *ShadowFall* (PS4), *Liberation* (PSP) and *Mercenary* (VITA) afterwards, moved on with *Horizon* series, still going strong.
*Intro plays*
Player: Fuck yeah! Go Helghast!
Sony: They're the bad guys.
Player: Wait WTF? NO! I want to play as the Helghast! Don't do this to me papa Sony...
Sony: Tough shit...
To be fair they are fun to fight. More fun than fighting the “good guys”.
All games should give u the choice of which side you would like to play on.
@Space Vatnik I must play my part, fatherless or not. We will see the greatest change in gaming history. May we see the future of our Helghast father.
My people. Sons and daughters of Helghan.... For many years, we have been a broken nation... Shunned, oppressed, and conquered by those we sought to escape. ...Ten years ago, I asked for time, and that time was granted by you. You, the strength in my arm, the holders of my dreams.... Our forefathers embarked on the greatest exodus in the history of all mankind... An exodus for freedom. Helghan became that freedom... Our new world changed our bodies. At first, it weakened us, but in fact, we were growing... stronger. In the time you have given me, I have rebuilt our nation, I have rebuilt our strength, and I have rebuilt our pride!... Our enemies at home have been re-educated. We have given them new insights into our cause. On this day, we stand united once more. On this day, those driven to divide us will hear our voice! On this day, we shall act as one, and we shall be ignored NO MORE! Defenders of the Helghast dream, NOW IS OUR TIME!"
"My people. Sons, and daughters of Helghan... This much, I vow... The history of these days will be written in blood... By crushing the armies of our enemy, by seizing the weapons they thought to turn against us, we were fighting for our very existence! But if there those who would deny us peace, refuse our rightful place in the universe, then, we will unleash such terrible vengeance, that generations yet unborn will cry out in anguish! The enemy may shatter our bodies, but they cannot break our spirit... Even now, they advance on our homeworld to seize by force, what they cannot claim by right... They cannot imagine what awaits them.... We will SMITE the invaders from our skies! Though they sweep over our lands like the sands of winter, never again we´ll bow before them... Never again endure their oppression... Never again endure their tyranny... We will strike without warning, and without mercy, fighting as one hand, one heart, one soul... We will shatter their dreams, and haunt their nightmares... Drenching our ancestor's graves with their blood! And as our last breath tears their lungs... as we rise again from the ruins of our cities... they will know, Helghan...belongs...to Helghast."
"Sons and daughters of Helghan, your destiny beckons. Stand with your brothers and sisters, stand with me, and together we will be undefeated. The past is our faith, the present is our strength, and the future... the future is our birthright! Sons and daughters of Helghan, the path toward a better tomorrow stretches out before us. Toward a future that is golden and eternal. But our journey together must cross a wilderness of hatred and bigotry, a landscape of lies seeded by the venom of our old enemy. Our foe knows us. He fears us. But we must not underestimate him. The ISA, while they cower and snipe from beneath their veneer of civility and freedom, are soulless and hollow. They make their pithy, mewling claims of liberty and righteousness, and all the while, they look upon the face of the Helghast with loathing and disgust. The enemy sees us as abominations, mutant freaks fit only for killing. To the foe we are less than human, but they will learn their mistake, my people. We will show them the iron and steel beneath Helghast flesh. We shall cast them against the unbreakable rock of our collective will. We will make them realize the truth that the children of Helghan know in their hearts: that our race, the Helghast nation, is the next step in the evolution of mankind. When we came to Helghan we were lost, a broken collection of exiles on the verge of death. At first we thought our new world would poison and destroy us. How wrong we were. Helghan saw what was in every one of us, our strength and our indestructible spirit, and made it manifest. The great change was the rebirth of our people. A people fit to stride the stars and shatter our enemies. Sons and daughters of Helghan, you are the embodiment of that glorious legacy, the inheritors of the victory that we fight for every day. You alone are fit to forge the future and the destiny of our species. History does not long entrust the care of freedom to the weak or the timid. We shall not suffer the irresolute and spineless men of the ISA to dictate our path! When you granted me the privilege of your leadership, I, Scolar Visari, willingly sacrificed myself to the engine of our nation. My only goal to bring our people the absolute and deserved mastery of their destiny. I am humbled by the magnificent example that you my people have set. The workers and artisans among you who toil and ask not for a claim, but accept the honor of your leaders. The soldiers and warriors who burn with cold fire and unyielding resolve never flinching before the guns of our adversaries. The teachers and commissars who hold the very soul of our people in their hands, shielding it from the lies of the treacherous and disloyal. You seek reward in service alone. Each of you shares in the greatest glory of them all. You are the true Helghast! Ruthless to those who oppose us, masters of those we defeat, unflinching in the face of adversity. I pity all those who were not born beneath our banner, for they will never know the touch of greatness as we do. And yet, there are some among our community who do not march with us. Voices raised in dissent and opposition. Soft minds that take the words of the ISA for truth! To those who bear the seeds of rebellion in their hearts and question the way of the Helghast, I say this: Would you have us embrace the very thing that rejected us? Would you make us lay down our rifles and surrender our armor, stark naked before a force that wishes only death for us? Peace is something we all desire, but the ISA would make it the peace of the grave! Shattering our nation's spirit and burning us to ashes! Beware the puppets amongst us, sons and daughters of Helghan! Know them, and spite them! Give them no succor or shelter! If any one of you doubts the fidelity of another, be it neighbor, brother, parent, or child, speak! It is the sworn duty of my commissars to isolate and re-educate these misguided souls. To bring them back to our fold. Expunge their weakness for the greater good! Our victory is imminent. With our hearts tempered in the fires of war we strive forward and take the fight to the foe. Let us never forget the duty that we have taken upon ourselves. Our enemy is tenacious and bold. The ISA dared to turn their weapons upon that which we hold dearest. Our cradle, our homeworld, our... Helghan! This invasion will not go unpunished. This criminal act unleashed the whirlwind of our wrath! Our guns never tire, and we have beaten back the foe! Sent them... running! The path we have chosen is not an easy one. Struggle is the father of all things and true virtue lies in bloodshed. But we will not tire, we will not falter, we will not fail! In the blood of our warriors comes the price we must pay. Blood alone moves the wheels of history. And we will be resolute! We will fear no sacrifice and surmount every difficulty to win our just triumph!"
Simply incredible!
Still brings a tear to my eye...
*HAIL HELGHAN*
barraki97 hail visari
Would thumb up this a million times over if it was possible. :D
Brian Cox has done some great voiceover work over the years, but man did he really knock this one out of the park. This is right up there with Chairman Prescott's speech in Gears of War 2.
Definitely did not phone this one in. He really got into character. Such a great actor.
Imo, the greatest antagonists are always written with reasonable motives and goals, but extreme means and methods of achieving them. The Helghast are a perfect example of this, exemplified by how the entire Killzone community is more sympathetic to them than the actual protagonists.
This like to have sympathy tontue Nazies.
How are they going to give us this crazy speech that will go down as the greatest speech in video game history and then make us fight them
I wish they'd make a movie out of this.
I would love to a film version of Killzone, but this absolutely cannot happen unless Steven Spielberg or JJ Abrams are directing.
+Troy Cox Right
so its better that there is no movie about this Killzone Universe. Another fact would be that there already is a japanese movie titled "Killzone".
And I guess that no famous director or studio would spend the tons of money, the CGI would cost to make this movie a blockbuster.
Btw: At the moment all studios are at max. capacity with storylines like Marvels Universe and other stuff, they just would waste this good story of the Helghast.
+Hawkeye the Dovahkiin ABRAMS?????DONT MENTION HIM! HE HAS RUINED STAR WARS! Spielberg would be a good choice.
... in the perspective of the Helghast. Yes- a movie from that point of view would be most appreciated.
Troy Cox Since when has a movie adaptation of a video game worked out?
"Defenders of the Helghast Dream… NOW IS OUR TIIIIME!" oh my god i LOVE that speech! and how say "VISARI! VISARI!" damn…
Notice what sounds faintly but distinctly like "Heil!" from the crowd off-screen... god damn this entire series is a giant #redpill in disguise and I LOVE IT!
"On this day, we stand united once more. On this day, those driven to divide us WILL HEAR OUR VOICE. ON THIS DAY, WE WILL ACT AS ONE. AND WE WILL BE IGNORED... NO MORE"
al Mamlūk this is the words I will be shouting when a civil war breaks out in my country
I dream to hear these words from a leader able to unite Europe in a formidable Empire
For fuck's sake. This was me commenting on how awesome a voice actor Brian Cox is. Can you far right pricks please find somewhere else to shoehorn your idiot ideology?
al Mamlūk with that comment I suspect your a guy who dosent care about the left polluting our Games
And I suspect you're a guy who wears tinfoil hats because he's afraid that George Soros, Nancy Pelosi, and the lizard people from the planet Zog will steal his thoughts and force him to drink the fluoride in the drinking water.
easily one of the best speeches in videogame history
this and Sopot from red faction
We need more games or movies with these kind of speech..
Helghast > ISA
Killzone accidentally managed to make the most kick-the-dog nazi-by-any-other-name bad guys in the history of bad guys, and still make them way more awesome than the main characters.
They're just evil enough to be badass, and not quite evil enough to be horrifying.
And they have better morals than the "good guys."
John III Sobieski that’s a bit false. I loved the fact that I got chills every time that deep and spooky helghast grunt voice called out to his brothers because he saw a threat, before I even saw them, and then seeing their eyes after that? There was some major science of human behaviour that went into creating them. Amazing single player and great online game too.
The Germans were kicked around a lot before Hitler was elected as Chancellor
@@dosdoomguy2285 Hell, newly formed Poland was discriminating against the Germans who lived there since before it was Imperial Germany and forced them out. That's not even counting the fact that the Polish started an armed uprising in Germany and all that land they held was taken from Germany because the treaty said that it was now Polish due to them fighting for it.
helghast master race
all hail the Helghast Empire
The Helghast are the bad guys of the series, and they do some bad things, but I would say they aren’t evil. They have legitimate grievances, their bodies are altered and suffer from the conditions of their home planet, which they were exiled to after a war to take Vekta. Now the Vektans keep the actually habitable world for themselves while forcing the Helghans to live on a planet they need to constantly wear gas masks on just to survive. Then later on the Vektans make Helghan worse, to the point not even the Helghast can live on it, and the surviving Helghans now have to live next door to the very people responsible for their previous and current situations. Who wouldn’t be bitter and angry about that? It doesn’t excuse their actions, but it does put them into context.
Nazi Germany be like:
@@miniaturejayhawk8702 I mean, I don't think Germany itself was slowly killing the people it lived in...
@@miniaturejayhawk8702 _I don't think Nazi germany was attacked by a much bigger enemy when they legally bought two planets and were exiled from one of them for the lulz of the ISA. And then almost went extinct after the good guys dropped a dirty bomb on their remaining planet, and gave the resource-deprived half of their previous planet to the refugees_
@@shikikankillzone4239 lol, i forgot why I wrote that comment in the first place. 😂💀
And that gives the Helghast reason to roll up on Vetka and massacre innocent civilians... how?
"Our enemies at home have been reeducated"
*Shoots brass in the head*

Quicker, cheaper and better than school
What a quick and cheap education system compared to the United States 😂😂
@@MrPlatanoMan in cheeseburger freedomland they don't even teach you that the part that shoots out of the gun ain't the brass part.

@@s.sradon9782 I think that if any nations citizens is to know how a gun works it would be the citizens of “cheeseburger freedomland”, probably not the ones that live in the sissy states but definitely the ones in the other states.
@Purified Water II That's true. My comment didn't age well
I had to do a speech in high school and I literally copied this speech word for word except for the names of factions. Got an A although my teacher had suspicions lol HAIL HELGHAN!
lmao best story ever lol
What were the different names for the factions? i'm curious,
Sorry man i honestly dont remember it was a few years back but the factions were real countries and a historical event that was similar to what the helghast people had to go through.
So you're a copier who has no originality?
Loui Furgasson yes when it comes to helghast speeches
Can’t believe it took people four games to realise that the ISA are the most imperialist (evil if you prefer) faction when this epic speech blatantly shows you.
I feel so sad for the Helghast. Even if they defeat ISA what will come can be even worse because UCN is stronger than both
You know what's actually funny the helghast story is mirrors Germany before ww2 what the allied nations did to them stole their resources and wealth and causing 8 million to starve to death in Germany alone. The west oppressed the fuck out of them and forced the events the caused ww2
1:47 ... war crimes
mfw i started playing Killzone 1 (first conscious playthrough) and I inmediately noticed what's up
@@tdoran616 shit happens bro
This game really ought to be called "The virgin ISA Grunts vs The Chad Helghast Enjoyer".
this speech alone made Killzone my game of the year 2004
I understand that the helghan are supposed to be space Nazis but I would love to have helghan military uniform
are their uniforms armored at all or is it like wearing fatigues...
The ISA is the real enemy
I am with ya bro.
Hail Helghan
@@TheMrPeteChannel
They are not.
Happy Anniversary Killzone 2004 & 2024.
Honestly loved the helghast, the look of the soldiers uniform and armour. The discipline and will, the speech is inspirational.
Kudos to Brian Cox for taking a short role yet rolling it straight into greatness!
This is the great Brian Cox from things like Nuremberg, Super Troopers, Manhunter etc. delivering a brilliant speech.
Never forget, the Helghast were the Good Guys.
No. They were not. Tragic villains, but not the good guys.
The motivational speech we need to over throw our corrupt government
Playing as the ISA I felt as if I was playing as the Nazis.
Helghast are the real good guys in the series I say
+Reaganator lol, actually seems like the Helghast are a thousand times more sympathetic nazis.
Visari is actually a darker version of George Washington and Winston. Churchill. The ISA are the true evil like Jar Jar Binks. Both are annoying protagonists the viewer/player are forced to side with against their beliefs.
+Reaganator Helghast are the victims, which wants revenge and justice! In Lucas Star Wars the are only the dark side... But well Star Wars is for simpel minded people. ;)
According to the speech and story they suddenly got attacked and have tried defending. But revenge has come! Sad we are forced as isa. There is a killzone mercenary luckily :D
*****
Where did the Helghan nation killed other nations and races???
One of the best speeches/scenes in any games ever!!
This is one of the best speeches by any real or fictional leader in history. Perfect opening to an amazing game way ahead of its time. Killzone is such a great series until Shadow Fall. Not the worst, but a disappointment.
I just hated Shadow Fall because they kill the characters way to early.
Visari should lived longer, Radec deserved more space and Stahl with Orloc messed all up in the end.
What I find best about this game is the fact it becomes really a grey area when people are confronted with things through a medium like a game. Hence such a large portion go for the Helghast side.
While people think the Allies VS the Nazi's and the Allies VS the Soviets is a whole Black and White case
In reality there is a whole part of history barely adressed when it comes to why the Nazi's rose to power, or why the Soviets rose to power.
I honestly wish someone would make a game or a decent movie that really shows reality of something like World war 2, instead of scaremongering and hatemongering.
Unchained Irony I know. It is so difficult to try and explain nothing is ever cut and dry in war without someone yelling "Nazi sympathiser" or "Stalinist" at you. You're not denying the horrible things they did but they didn't just spring up out of nowhere like some Saturday morning cartoon villain.
Finbar Brolly
Which is due to the scaremongering and hatemongering.
People are pretty much raised to hate the Nazi's, the Soviets, The North koreans, The Communist Chinese, The Fascist Italians, the Francoist Spanish and so forth.
Yet through all that Scare and hate mongering they forget to mention why they rose to power to begin with.
While itis reasonable to hate groups for what they did, it is unreasonable not to at least see the context in which it happened.
@@unchainedirony9499 Nobody hated the communists. They pretty much run everything now. That's the price we pay for letting them win.
@@lordmasterization Citation needed.
Seriously. "they pretty much run everything now", what the hell does that even mean? You do realize that the US is an oligarchical farce of a democracy, established and held upright by the allegiance of billionaires, maintaining a status quo in which the ultra-rich leech off of the rest of the world?
Or are you one of those people that think the democrats are commie fascist muslims from outer space?
@@RedFloyd469 considering that the Hippies from the sixties and their hipster children are todays adults it makes total sence to say "the commies run everything". 🤷♂️🤷♂️🤷♂️
Moment of silence for all those who still have not heard this legendary rallying call.
whenever i feel like the worlds got me down i look up this speach
I remember that as a kid, I always thought the Helghasts were the bad guys. But now, It made me understood that there is not bad or good guys. Everything happening is about the perspective we see it. Helghans sees the ISA as their enemies for forcing them to live on the inhospitable planet Helghan after their first defeat and they want revenge for this suffering they endured because of them. And the ISA sees the Helghasts as their enemies because they see them as invaders trying to get their hometown (if I understood the lore good enough).
And the most mind-blowing thing about the perspective stuff, is that it also applies in real life.
very interesting perspective, one to value indeed!
Russia and Ukraine ring a bell......we are in those times.......you are correct!
@@MrMaddox57 Yes, Russia and Ukraine. That's a perfect irl example.
With work and struggling with food and bills my father never really played much video games when I was young but out of all the PS2 games I played this was the only one my father actually sat down for hours and enjoyed it and replayed the campaign. We did it so often that after the years went by it was having major issues and it didn’t work anymore. But just recently I surprised him with a mint condition one to jump back into and he was super excited. Such an under rated game that went into strange directions after the sequels. The first one was really ahead of it’s time back in the day.
Sony would never have the balls to publish a game like this again
Now i just need the god emperor to give a speech this great and ill lead the charge against the xenos/chaos forces
I miss all Visari's speeches, Brian Cox had a badass voice
VISARI DID NOTHING WRONG!
Katamari Roller he really didn't DEATH TO THE VEKTAN SCUM
+eRaZE Hyper what? helghast are the sisten and vekta is one of the planets so they are helghasts, thats why in shadow fall the helghasts call the vektans traitors

he ordered the unautherised attack on an ISA based space defence platform. for starters.
Hmmm... Seems like 15 downvoters need to be reeducated, and given new insight into our cause.
+cksights001 Hail Helghan!
just take off their rebreathers, throw em outside and see how long they last.
FOR THE HELGHAST
Translation: they don't see the reasoning behind our hate mongering and therefore must be executed
Helghast energy right there. Its enough to make a grown man cry
I always loved how people don’t realize that the ISA are terrible people until they actually watch any of the speeches, just shows how in-depth killzone is by forcing you to play as the actual bad guy while making the good guys look bad (and they also look so much better)
Till this day this still gives me chills.
"My duty to the emperor. My life for Helghan."
Why does this video give me the desire to conquer the entire world?
Scary.
i think Scolar visari is emblematic of trying to make your villains so cool that the protagonists seem like jokes in comparison.
I mean who gives a single shit about the ISA after hearing a single one of visaris speeches!
I think your right because they tried to make ISA cooler in Killzone 2 by giving your character a mohawk 😂😂
first game that makes the villains look like heroes

Ah early 2000's where a 3 star general can have a mullet lol
Fun facts, the Helghast bought the rights to colonize Vekta, but were forced off by the I.S.A. to Helgan. This game is about them trying to retake the homeworld from the I.S.A. The Templeton Institute did an in depth video on it and once you find out all the facts, it apparent who the real "bad guys" are.
Only for the Templin idiots to disregard everything they've said in their dumbass UA-cam short of them bitching that anyone would dare agree with a fictional empire. XD
20+ years later and I still get Goosebumps.
Brian cox was PERFECT
This is by far one of the best trailers in video game history. Just saying. Sends shivers down my spine.
Will anyone be interested in a prequel set before Killzone 1? Either as the ISA when they shared one home with the Helghast? Or possibly the helghast rebeling against Visari that he refers to in this speech?
Also I would love a movie where Radec is portrayed as dark as Vader, while Visari is portrayed like Darth Sidious!
I'd rather have one as a Vektan rebel trying to gain revenge for the ISA invasion of their planet.
+PlatanoGames Network i love killzone,and am not a killzone shadow fall player ( im proud of it ).
+PlatanoGames Network
Why would I want to fight against Helghasts? Rather have a game where you play as a Helghast and spend the game kicking ISA back under the rock where they came from.
honestly i dont care. i just want to play as hakah and luger again. or at least get some kind of explanation of what happend to them.
I know the Helghast are meant to be the bad guys, but it really isn't their fault. Exiled from their rightful home. It really goes to show that if you push anything enough, they will go to any length to get justice or their version of it.
I used to love this awesome game on my PS2.... The old time feels.....
Templar,Rico,Luger and the helghast guy xD
Hakha its hakha xD
Ohh, thanks man I remember now, The half human and half helghan lol
yea the so called traitor ;)
It's shame they never brought back Hakha or Luger (unless they died off in 3 or SF)
Helghasts are the good guys
I would always watch this before playing the game. I can't get enough even today ! So epic.
Spencer Maisonneuve yeas
Imagine having a legitimately purchased planet stolen from you and your people are subsequently exiled to a nearly uninhabitable planet only to be branded the bad guys when you try to reclaim your stolen world.
Yeah, the Helghast did some bad stuff, but when you look at the grand scale of things you see it’s nothing compared to how much they’ve been wronged.
Honestly the ISA are the real villains of the series. They branded the Helghast as the evil enemy when they, the Helghast, were the ones legitimately being oppressed and wronged by the ISA and Earth Gov.
Looking into the lore really changes your whole perspective on the situation.
Miss my best friend. Played every weekend for a year. Didn't have the online . Played our team vs the helghans. Good times. Now 31.
My people, sons and daughters of Helghan.
For many years we have a broken nation, shunned, oppressed, and conquered by those we sought to escape!
10 years ago, I asked for time. And that time was granted by you! You, the strength my arm, the holders of my dreams!
Our forefathers embarked on the greatest exodus, in the history of all mankind. An exodus for freedom! Helghan became that freedom! Our new world changed our bodies, at first it weakened us. But in fact, we were growing stronger.
The time you have given me, I have rebuilt our Nation! I have rebuilt our Strength! And I have rebuilt our Pride!
Our enemies at hold have been re-educated, we have given them new insights into our cause.
On this day, we stand united once more! On this day, those driven to divide us, will hear our Voice! On this day, we shall act as One! And we shall be ignored no more!
[ Gunshots ]
Defenders of the Helghast Dream, now is our time!
Yup. Still gets me hyped
Never got board from this speech its accualy givs me goosebumps
Real world comparisons aside, the Helghast are just way cooler than the... humans or whatever.
10/10 Would defend the helghast dream.
'On this day we stand united once more. On this day thoose driven to divide us will hear our voice! On this day we shall act as one and we shalln't be ignored, NO MORE!
defenders of the Helghan dream. . . . . . . . . NOW IS OUR TIME!!!'
CLASSIC
Visari's voice is so powerful. I love it.
Long live helghan and long live the helghast.
Any army that let's general Adams be in charge with that kinda hair do deserves the vecta massacre
Those dreads
He was literally in charge of the planets only defense
Go from super troopers to being a helgan emperors that still amazes to this day never would've expected it to be the same actor voicing visari
Does no one understand that neither side in Killzone is right? And that these thousands and thousands of Helghast and Vektan soldiers are dying for practically no damn reason at all.
The Helghast died to defend their homeland, the ISA died for nothing except for fulfilling the wishes of their bureaucratic leaders.
+Omar Jalloh The Helghast attacked the Vektans in Killzone 1 and massacred civilians the entire time they were on Vekta. They aren't the avenging angels everyone says they are.
Microzombie So? The Vektans planned on wiping out the Helghast by creating a bio weapon, TWICE. And that's not counting the Terracide in which the ISA genocided the fuck out of Helghan, and the ISA dogs were never tried for that war crime. And I wouldn't be surprised if the Helghast started killing civilians in Killzone 5 due to the fact that the Vektans demonize Helghan refugees on a daily basis, not to mention Shadow Marshalls harass the Helghast Army on a daily basis as well. The Helghast may not be saints but they are compared to the sin of humanity that the ISA and the UCN are.
+Omar Jalloh That wasn't the ISA that was the VSA, the ISA equivalent of the CIA. Every VSA official who knew about the bio weapons was arrested by the ISA. The Terracide was the fault of Jorhan Stahl. The idiot fooled around with unstable weaponry. Weaponry which he was planning to unleash on the billions innocent civilians of Earth. At least the ISA involvement in the Terracide was an accident, Stahl was going to cause a Terracide ON PURPOSE. The ISA then gave HALF of Vekta to the Helghast to live on. Shadow Marshalls may harass the Helghast, but Helghast agents and special forces harass the ISA. It's called a Cold War look it up. I don't care what you say, the Vektans and Helghast are equally bad. That's the entire point of Killzone. There are no winners, only survivors.
Microzombie And by Helghast harassing the Vektans, you mean the Black Hand harassing the Vektans who might I add don't represent Helghan.
after 19 years still goosebumps :D
When a Game wants you to hate the "Bad guys" but you end up loving them cause they're Cool but then find out that they were really the GOOD GUYS all along!
This is what Europe needs right now.
TheHobosexual1 so true so does Sweden and England..... big time
Europe needs another killzone game? i dont know..... ;)
Yes it is. More than ever.
sadly after 3 years, europe is going worse.
Not necessarily
When I was little, I wanted to be Visari when I was older. I still do. Nuclear winters will rage through all 7 continents some day.
Helghast are the best and all ways will be
Boy oh boy did Brian Cox nail this speech or what great opening to a truly brilliant game and the multiplayer was awesome as well x
This speech always brings a tear to my eye. ..always
I find this intro more powerfull and more patriotic than other ones in the latest games. That's how a true lider looks like!
*I follow that man anywhere!*
that smile at the end with the music enclosure , just pure brilliant
It's incredible that some video game developers have better directions and skills with the camera and music then some movies, I only wish that they can directly develop movie adaptations of their games, a movie of Killzone 1 through 3 would be an incredible cinematic experience have 3 hollywood megastars and one unknown as the ISA main characters and have an epic cast for the villians
I'm now ready to fight for Helghan, regardless of aught else.
When you look at the full story it honestly makes you realize that the “good guys” really aren’t that good.
They’re just a lighter shade of grey if we’re being honest
@@explosivereactionstv7414 in fact they are a caricature of the real world just looking at the fact that this was the start of a second war between the two nation showing how revanchism and harsh treatment to a people can just lead to a second war just look at the time that the Helghast Empire lasted 12 years 1 years less than the Third Reich lasted
Its show how a humiliated people and hatred can easy lead to totalitarism and extremist the Helghan People even knowing they had the resource to try to make Heghan habitable just to instead putting there revanche in the middle of it putting all resource in the military sector instead of trying to help the population
@@aoki6332 yeah i had a sense of that when I read the TV Tropes page for the series. The Helghans seem to be a caricature of the authoritarian regimes of the interwar era and their leader reminds me of Hitler when he makes speeches.
@@explosivereactionstv7414 yep the creator said that thee helghan was a mix between China, the URSS and the nazi
After all this time the killzone cutscenes still hold up well Brian Cox did such an amazing performance for Visari
MAKE HELGHAN GREAT AGAIN!
When I found out you don’t play as helghans I was devastated
My favorite game of all time. It is the first shooter i played!
me too! it was also my first videogame
Visari may have been the bad guy. But fucking hell, after listening to that speech I'd fight for him too.
Vekta is Helghan territory by right! Our Autarch shall be avenged!
Killzone should made game as how Helghast were discriminated to become one of the most powerful empire in the Galaxy.
Brian Cox is so goddamn good.
Man, I feel bad for The Helghast. 😢
I agree
Let's take the planet back!!
@@54032Zepol Defeat the peasants
Who else can recite this whole speech from heart? I grew up with this shit man and played the game almost everyday never skiping the opening.
I did this whole speech in middle school at 15 years old in the caf just for fun in front of everybody its one of my favorite memories.And after 9 years of being away from killzone seeing and listening to this brings a tear to my eye.
This is timeless.
Awesome story, I remember having an itch for a first person shooter and saw this used, I played the demo before but was blown away with the full game, I showed this intro to all my friends
2:01 You know of whom he speaks.
((()))
Where do I vote for Visari?
When I first played this and saw this, I thought I was gonna play as helghast, but that speech wasn't meant for me, total bullshxt
Lmfaoooo
i now his speach from memory afte 10 years this was my childhood mainly battlefields with brother it was endless war 12 hours mayhems
This is the thing with dictators
They are extremely charismatic and persuasive and know how to rouse emotions inside you. That's how they make their impact. You could say this guy and his country were made somwehat similar in concept to Hitler and nazi Germany
