The developers of Killzone 3 decided that the normal way enemies die aren’t up to their design philosophy and have decided to add a bit more “spectacular new ways for Helghast enemies to perish.” With these new “cinematic deaths” a drop ship will no longer simply “blow up” but rather may spin out of control and slam to the ground in a massive explosion.  The jetpack troopers, on the other hand, will propel skyward and then plummet to the ground engulfed in flames.

The whole concept sounds great in theory, but the two videos that went along with the announcement just remind me of a glorified ragdoll system. You may think differently, so go check out the two videos of the new cinematic deaths after the break.
