New Killzone 2 Screenshot

Brand new screenshot of Killzone 2. This screen shows off some of the lighting player will see as well as the rocket launcher.

NoUseMerc6605d ago

If this is in-game, all I have to say is that the textures could use a bit of work. The character models and ambient objects look good but the environmental textures like buildings and railings and stuff look a little bland.

Also the lighting system looks great. I like the lighting on the scaffolding where the Helgast are crossing and the rocket launcher looks alright. I don't know if I like the green orb looking thing for the eye sight.

Cwalat6604d ago

this is a new SCREENSHOT, it never said if its from the prealpha version or the final game, THIS pic is defenitily PRE alpha, ive seen that place in the tech demo they showed, its not to show of the final game, only what technology they are using. these guys work really hard and u will remember my post when u see the newer pics at GDC, so remember that i posted this.

btw, i would be surprised to see this game come out before november,
this is not a game that needs to be rushed, from all the hype they released back in 2005, this game is gonna show what the PS3 was made for, and if they dont deliver that, many gamers would consider PS3 a failure... however if they do deliver(which i know they will) then gamers are gonna know that PS is the real gaming brand...

Panthers6605d ago

Hmm I dont see what you see. The pic is small but it looks great.

Rockwallaby6605d ago

Bit low res to criticise, the lighting is said to be very important to the gameplay, hopefully they have a lot of new info @ GDC

Violater6605d ago

ohh the textures how will we live.
lol

Delt46605d ago

The pic is a low quality picture. But i am so excited for this game. I cant wait to see how the shadows in the game will effect PSN play. It is gunna be WILD!!! GIMME GIMME GIMME

sonarus6605d ago

KZ2 looks sweet. This game better not miss its september launch date. September is even pushing it farther than necessary. hopefully it releases in july and then resistance can take september.

jackdoe6605d ago

Many of you guys obviously don't understand the reason of the gamerzone. Sigh.

Winter47th6604d ago (Edited 6604d ago )

isn't that image from the E3 trailer?

Edit: Ok thanks, because I was a little confuse. But didn't PSU played Killzone 2 at E3? So this could have been from their play trough of the game.

NoUseMerc6605d ago (Edited 6605d ago )

no...there is no scenes from E3 that show the rocket launcher. If you check, which I have, there are no scenes with the rocket launcher facing Helgast coming over a scaffold either...

The only video that shows a rocket launcher is from the GC Leipzig showings

Ri0tSquad6605d ago

It doesn't look like any other pictures or on-stage video from E3 we have seen.

The_Kills6605d ago

Relax...

There are countless games who's pre-release screenshots are refined to exagerate the actual game's graphics

Why Guerrilla Games Shouldn't Abandon the Killzone Series

Hugely disappointingly, it seems that Guerrilla Games, developers of the Killzone and Horizon series, may be done with Killzone for good.

1 was fine, overhyped as a " halo" killer
2 was a graphical beast at the time, and felt heavy
3 was good a refinement of 2 but not much else. weird audio issues environment were to quiet
shadow fall was pretty but bland

OtterX495d ago (Edited 495d ago )

Shadowfall had great Multiplayer though. Too bad the campaign was meh at best. It did have the occasional great moment sprinkled in.

TheNamelessOne495d ago (Edited 495d ago )

I played through 2/3 multiple times. I played through the original once, but it felt pretty lukewarm for me. I couldn't be bothered to beat Shadow Fall. I got a couple hours in and just went "I'm done". Never touched it again. It was awesome on the tech side, being a launch title, but it didn't even match up to the first game when it came to actually having fun playing it.

Rude-ro495d ago

3 in 3d was an amazing experience to be had.
Although not many experienced it as intended for good reasons.

just_looken495d ago

You forgot the ai advancements on the playstation 2 killzone one you could have a full team of bots doing everything even playing the objective that was a big thing.

In killzone 2 they always flanked you and when available used the high ground.

Playing killzone 2 no hud 5.1 audio was/is awesome

MDTunkown495d ago

They should finish Horizon story first

darthv72495d ago

I dont mind if someone else takes up the mantle for the KZ franchise. We are several years removed from the first game. It certainly could use a remake to gauge interest in the rest of the series. I know it has its fans... Im thinking of how a proper reboot can rekindle that old dormant flame and bring in a new generation of fans in the process.

just_looken495d ago

You forgot killzone mercenaries on the ps vita but it was the worst selling sony game for awhile there.

Yui_Suzumiya494d ago

Yeah, a remake would be pretty awesome

anast495d ago

They should let it go or sell it. No use spending millions on this project.

LucasRuinedChildhood495d ago

Would like a new IP before Horizon 3. Just because games take so long to make these days.

PlayStation 3 Games That Desperately Need a PS5 Remaster

The PlayStation 3 may not have been the strongest generation for Sony, but there were still some diamonds in the rough that deserve a revisit as PS5 remasters.

OtterX724d ago (Edited 724d ago )

Even if they could just remaster and put on PSVR2, some would still look great as VR titles and could do a whole lot to bolster the headset w these exclusives! I'd imagine the investment of reworking these titles into VR would be way less than building new games from the ground up, and they could be amazing experiences, and VR often makes flat games feel fresh again. The Resistance and Killzone games are particularly what I want to see!!

Rude-ro724d ago

I played killzone 3 in 3d and it really changed the game per being immersive.
In vr, that would be even more awesome.

darthv72724d ago

Funny you mention that... my son wanted to play some PS3 games in 3d on my PS tv and he was blown away by how good KZ3 was. It really was a great addition to the game. Im surprised there have not been more 3d games from that era being ported to the PSVR/VR2.

_SilverHawk_724d ago

resistance 1-3, killzone 1-3, uncharted 1-3, uncharted golden abyss, folklore, socom 4 , motorstorm, twisted metal, MAG, heavenly sword

Cacabunga724d ago

Killzone 2+3
Sly Thieves in Time
Crack in Time
God of War Ascension
Motorstorm
Modnation racer
Infamous 1+2

Profchaos724d ago (Edited 724d ago )

Killzone trilogy in VR would be amazing bonus points if they offer shadow fall.

There was a psvr1 Killzone project that supermassive was working on at one stage which wasn't up to scratch and Sony brand it back in house I was hoping we would see that on psvr2 eventually.

Personally I'd love to see some more love or acknowledgement of psvr2 from Sony in general it was a expensive headset and Sony barely acknowledge it's existence

seanpitt23724d ago

The amount of work needed to remaster these games wouldn't be beneficial on a financial and business sense.. MGS4 would probably be the best bet as it would need the least amount of work!

Iceball2000724d ago

YEAAASSSSS! I miss this franchise and wanna play it so bad again.

Father__Merrin724d ago

The time is perfect for a resistance fall of man game campaign coop multiplayer

InUrFoxHole724d ago

The resistance series is str8 trash to me. Socom 3 I would welcome. Or killzone MP.

Marcus Fenix724d ago

A Resistance reboot will be awesome

Michiel1989724d ago

That's what Bungie should make, Ill keep saying it until it happens

1Victor724d ago (Edited 724d ago )

Resistance was ok but Warhawk and Starhawk was better and kept me coming back for almost a decade of fun and petty revenge on the loud mouth unskilled players 🤣
Edit I loved capture the flag dropping the pot on the flag carrier was extremely satisfying as well as transforming your plane in bot form and stumping them to death 😱

Michiel1989724d ago

Resistance was the best co-op fps I ever played after L4D2

Up there with the top tier in the industry. Love Guerrilla Games - Horizon Burning Shores is simply STUNNING.

1Victor1028d ago

Can’t wait for their next franchise

SullysCigar1028d ago

Same. They nailed it with Horizon. The trouble is I also want a new Killzone! Can't I just have it all?!

jznrpg1028d ago

I’m with you I want Horizon 3 , Killzone and new IPs

badz1491027d ago

I have yet to play Burning Shores as I just started Forbidden West (bought at launch, just unwrapped last weekend LOL) and playing on PS5.

man...I still can't believe the graphics especially now I'm playing it on my LG OLED. that graphics and with stable performance backing it up, GG really is the master of their craft!

Vengeance11381028d ago

32.7M sales in the Horizon franchise! With 8.4M coming from Forbidden West alone! Truly a hugely successful game and franchise as a whole. Looking forward to Horizon III

Shane Kim1028d ago

That's kind of a huge drop though. It's only been two games.

VersusDMC1028d ago

One year after realease HZD sold 7.6 million.

https://www.noobfeed.com/ne...

So not a drop off.

Unless you're saying a HFW should have sold as much now as HZD sold in 5 years?

Vengeance11381028d ago

It's been 3 games, this includes Call of the Mountain. Also no, its a great improvement over HZD.

solideagle1028d ago

lol you are comparing:

HZD: 28 February 2017 - May 2023 (6 years+)

HFW: 18 February 2022 - May 2023 (1 year+)

We will see if it surpass original number.

Phoenix761028d ago

@shane, 2 full main games, 2 DLC add ons, 1 VR spin off game, oh and a an official LEGO set.
Not too bad for an ip that's only been on market for 6 years

REDGUM1028d ago

Wow, very impressive. I didn't know the numbers were so high for Forbidden West. Still playing through it myself

thesoftware7301028d ago (Edited 1028d ago )

Yooo, when I first saw that Killzone 1 footage at E3, my friends my brothers and I were like, Holy shit! When it came out, it didn't look exactly like it, but we sunk so many hours into 1 & 2.

I even liked Killzone: SF, it was a spectacle to look at, and even today it looks good. I hope they make a new one. Can you imagine how that will look, and they can get some modern FPS pointers from Bungie.

blacktiger1028d ago

thank you fps lover, I'm with you

talocaca1028d ago

Such a wonderful studio. They deserve all their success.

The Decima Engine is absolute 🔥 I'm just mad they have abandoned Killzone.

OzzY-waZZy1028d ago (Edited 1028d ago )

Kinda wish they move on from Horizon tbh.

lukasmain1028d ago

They are probably working on mutiple projects. One of them is Horizon 3, but another is a multiplaer game and probably somehting else.

Imalwaysright1028d ago

There were rumours that they were working on a Socom reboot.
