based on a single level played people can pretty much sum up what the color scheme will be for the entire game.
Same thing happened with Metal Gear Solid 4. The demo was in the dessert and everyone was saying how bland it was and how the whole game was color deprived. And it turned out that every level had a whole variety of colors and environments. The jungles in South America, the towns in Europe and the snow in Alaska all appeared in MGS 4.
Guerilla already said that there would be a variety of colors and environments through out the game. People shouldn't be so quick to judge.

I thought the first guys preview was the hating.....didnt like the controls etc and i expected on page 2 for the next guy to sing its praises but HE turned out to be the hater.

Not much praise at all by all accounts.

Sony have so much riding on this,they have pumped loads of $ and 4 years of dev time into it also - if it doesnt get scores of 9 from a mass majority of sites then they will have let alot of people down.

Still time will tell and theyve got 5 months left to tweak and optimise so lets all have our fingers crossed for this 'beast'.........

The Bots wont get a Game like this

EVER !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Ha Ha !!!!!!!!!!

You do realise that 360 owners have been playing Halo3 for a while now dont you? - just so you know if Killzone2 doesnt score more highly than Halo3 then your gonna look retarded..........

Wow, that second piece was just a hatchet job on a game not yet in beta.
That guy sounds like a fan boy for a 'certain' other console.

This game is so overated. The gameplay is repetitive and unoriginal and everything is uninspired. The only thing almost decent about it is the graphics. They *almost* look as good as Gears 2 or Fable 2. Halo 4 will kill this pile of crap when it is announced. Killzone 2 will be the next Lair or Haze.

360 will have 2 ship multiple disc 4 ffxlll.. rage/doom just confirm... will not look as got as the ps3 version... 4 them 2 have killzone it will take 7 xbox 360s under liquid nitrogen coolin conditons. And nano technology 2 swipe the disc in rapid succesion...... ha ha I kill me a.l.f

How many times can they mention Gears of War in this Killzone 2 piece? It seems like everytime they want to justify something as a success they bring up how Gears of War did it and it was fine.

That's called a benchmark and people are still trying to hit it!

so many other games are in danger of is the "hype machine". just expect a good time, not the second coming.

graphic whores can suck it

And we have 7 more months of this

...nobody ever dissected Halo 3 this much and it was 10 times more hyped than KZ2.

well i really don't care what is said about Killzone 2..i'm looking foward to playing this game..i mean its not like theres much to play on the PS3 anyway. it should make for a good rental.

meh, the game will be good if not great. Robinson was just straight up hating. The dousche bag acts like the game is going to be the next E.T game. Seriously, there is no reason or rhyme for that kind of hate for a game that shows good promise other than rampant hate for a particular brand or game.

I'd expect this type of crud from IGN. Nothing to see here. In their eyes Halo 3 revolutionized FPS, but Killzone is common... right...

This article is completely irrelevant. Why don't they do this to all games? Video game "journalism" is a joke.

COD4 isnt all that great. Meaning the single player campaigne sucks. I still havent beat it and i have about 22 days on COD4. The online in cod4 is addictive and one of the best.. Other than that the game isnt that great.

Killzone 2 is way to early to judge the whole games. We've only seen one stage.. Cod4 only had 3 good stages. The rest felt like cod3 and were just so boring and pointless to play.. I believe killzone 2 will blow everyone away. Its already did for me.. Especially the multi player aspect of the game.. Only the haters and fanboys will hate on this game.. You can already tell..

Killzone 2 - Revolutionizing First Person Shooters
Uncharted 2 - Revolutionizing Action Adventure games
Gran Turismo 5 - Revolutionizing Racing Sims.
MAG - Revolutionizing online Co-op
LittleBigPlanet - Revolutionizing EVERYTHING ELSE.

AAAHAHAHHAHHAHAHAHAHHAHAHA

Its a crap game nothing new that i already haven't seen before .i for one want be getting this generic crap

All these guys did was complain and complain and complain. G4 TV said they liked the game, Greg Miller from IGN USA said the demo was awesome and even hip-hop gamer said it was incredible so what the f*** are IGN UK whining about, you really can't innovate that much in FPSs anyway.You only got play a demo that only lasts for about 15 minutes and you feel you have the right to pass a final judgement on a game that is still 6 months away from launch and about 40% complete, how typical and very annoying.Also, as incredible as games like Gears 2 and Resistance 2 are so far, critics will always find a fault one way or the other. At the end of the day its us gamers who will decide on whether these games will rock or suck and not these overly critical C*** SUCKERS.

He does raise valid concerns but you can't just put all the weight on color pallet like that. It seems like his major gripe is that because it's too gray but yet admits to playing only 1 level.. He should wait until he plays more levels before he says the game is too gray and it's been said already that the A.I was tuned down "significantly" for E3. I myself personally would love if there was a snow level in Killzone 2. It would really be something else visually. Besides that though the game is looking solid gameplay wise, i'm not expecting a groundbreaking game i'm expecting a highly enjoyable game.

Also they need to talk about the story a little more.

Nothing sets it apart from any of the other pretty shiny shooters.
What makes it stand out? Shiny new graphics? BLEWREY? CELL?
Remember how kick ass Haze was gonna be?

basically that the game looks grey and that it really doesn't stand out or how ever you want to put it.

But as the first guy said, Gears 1 wasn't a colorful game either and personally War is not colorful at all. WHAT? ARE YOU EXPECTING Helghast to be filled with a beutiful lake with sunflowers sorrounding it?

Killzone 2 will be a solid FPS, a 9.0 AAA title at heart. those that give it ridicolous reviews which we all know will happen like 7.0 or 6.0 are just ignorant fanboys.

He compares Killzone to Gears because he knows that fanboys like to compare exclusives.

There is nothing really exciting in FPS' these days. Killzone 2 will be a solid shooter.

2 different genres people... remember dat morons.
Gears 2 - 3rd Person Shooter
Killzone 2 - 1st Person Shooter

but they are both shooters and when I say Killzone 2 a fanboy pops out of somewhere and says Gears of War 2.

seemed much more biased. Not in comparing, but in what he wants. A game that is focused on war, and a war zone area is going to be bleak' it's going to be grey, and black, with smoke everywhere. How can Killzone 2 revolutionize an FPS. The genre is pretty standard; it is just run and gun. He says that COD4 had great AI; no FPS does. In COD you just run towards a building to get them enemy to come out and just blast them. He says himself that the AI was dumbed down for the hands on, but blasts them for being too stupid. Obviously; IT WAS DUMBED DOWN. KZ2 is doing exactly what it set out to do; be a fun FPS with amazing visuals. It already has amazaing visuals. The lighting effects are the best for a console game, maybe ever. The online mode will be fun, something they didn't even mention.

C.R.A.P

we've been over this before with double standards leveled at ps3 games while 360 games get a pass.

i guess it's expected when sony and guerilla aimed high for the next gen killzone.not only did it raise the bar for sony's own devs,but developers in general.

anyone who saw the E3 2005 presentation knew that some of the games were target videos and some were in game videos.but the FUD from the other side just won't let it go on what might have been said about the TARGET VIDEO.

and now that the game is surpassing other games in graphics and the amount of things going onscreen,the bashing has now turned to other things that are based on opinion.

1.how can you judge a game that has yet shown its other levels?

2.how can you judge a demo's A.I. when we all know it was turned down so that gamers can enjoy a chance to play it?

3.how can you knock it's choice in color usage when there's a game on the competing system that severly lacks color and is given a pass?why?because gears has less onscreen and a short draw distance to allow it to turn up the action with an engine incapable of allowing more onscreen?

we have seen again and again how ps3 games are targeted because of E3 2005.but somehow i WELCOME the bashing down deep.i'd rather sony and its devs aim high than aim LOW like microsoft did.

and microsoft's fans love the LOW aim.but then,this is from the same camp that likes component,dvd,hd-dvd,batteries ,p2p,small downloads,small proprietary hard drives,and gimped games because of lack of space.

third party devs benefited from sony's target videos because it showed what could be made if you work hard at making your games.just look at CALL OF DUTY2?look at how poor that game looked.and nothing could be changed because it was releasing in 2005 on 360 for launch.

but then notice how the devs changed from world war to modern day combat.i'd bet the devs saw what killzone was gunning for and tried to trump the visual presentation.and since they were working on easier hardware to make games on,they got CALL OF DUTY 4 out first.

but then guerilla was aiming not just for visuals,but physics,destruction,amount of enemies onscreen,lighting etc.that would take time on unfamiliar hardware.which is ps3.and fishy is right,sony is making a next gen engine to use for future games just like infinity ward created the engine for COD4 being used in future titles.

keep aiming high sony.it will benefit us all as other systems pull down the level of quality that can be produced.keep DEGRADING THE EXPERIENCE microsoft,it will be your downfall even thought you're getting outsold already.

http://www.youtube.com/watc...

how about that RAGE demo and carmack?we ps3 fans are now just laughing louder.first it was just a chuckle against microsoft and it's fans.now my belly is starting to get sore.

apocalypse................... .......

For just one E3 demo, let alone scrutiny. I still remember MGS4 and Uncharted getting chewed out for "lack of visual variety" in their previews and demos, but it was based on short-sighted decisions by journalists.

It's perfectly fine to complain about graphical issues, buggy scripting, wierd level design, etc. But giving a game bad remarks in your preview strictly because the developer didn't let you play the entire game from start to finish? Some of these people need to get a grip.

This game looks really promising. But seriously. If it were coming out on Xbox people would say "its just another shooter with space nazis."

Does anybody else find IGN painful to navigate? Why do all gaming sites have to have 4 million ads on every page. Especially irritating are the ones that zoom in over the page (not the pop ups) that you have to close. Pages take forever to load. Annoying as sh*t.

As per usual the gameplay is lacking .Don't give me that pre alpha bullshit it was pre alpha last year.

You know they think they are sh**ting all over Sony, but what they are really doing to disappointing Playstation 3 owners. These 360 Fanboys are just upset they have to preview a PS3 game that outshines their beloved console. These Microsoft asspuppets' favorite game Gears of War was a diverse color pallet of grey, brown, and green. OOOOhhh I see, Gears is better because it has some brown and greeeeeeeen. How stupid of the rest of us to be impressed with the insane amount of polygons, realistic smoke, particle effects, amazing realtime lighting... tisk tisk, all this time we should have been focusing on Killzone 2's lack of brown and green.

Those 'editors' have a point, Black Hawk Down needed more bright colored armor (via Halo), because THAT movie had a very washed out monotone color. As we all know war torn environments have lush tropical trees growing everywhere.

Oh and don't forget how much Private Ryan sucked because it was a mono tone color! I mean why didn't Tom Hanks wear some blue jeans and a yellow shirt, that is more realistic.

Oh oh, wait... then there is Shindler's List! The movie in black and white?! COLOR is great!!!! I mean look at Legally Blonde, I mean that movie has soooooo much color, it o't to be an Academy award winner.

PFFFFTTTT... If you haven't already figured it out, I am being VERY sarcastic. Yes, I do have to explain this because people can be that stupid.

I never understood the hoopla about this game. I just see another shooter. The first opinion talks about all the "...The battlefield feels alive, with smoke billowing from burnt out wrecks and your buddies fighting the Helghast as you trudge along the frontlines" Well every shooter does that. The first level of Call of Duty 3 does that. I'm a fps whore so I'll definitely give this game a swirl but the hype that this game is getting from the sony fanboys is not deserved.

I'm sick and tired of hearing people complain about new games not being innovative and unique. Why can't people just take the game for what it is, enjoy it and stop comparing it to other titles? No one complains when an action movie features explosion and claiming that it's already been done.
It's and FPS - First Person Shooter! The whole point of an FPS is shooting at stuff in a first person view. No one can claim they didn't know what they where getting when they bought the game.
Don't get me wrong here. I like games with new and innovative game play (Mirror's Edge and LBP are on the top of my "what to buy this year"-list). I just don't think every game benefits from it.

Sony really does need another mainline shooter franchise. They pretty much gave up after the PS3 generation, and I'm really surprised they haven't tried at another high-profile, singleplayer-centric shooter; even if it weren't Killzone or Resistance.

I miss Killzone while I can see why they still do Horizon has some really good things but I do think that Horizon is overrated imo.

Or how about studios focus on projects that they feel passionate about, and not be forced to make something they have little interest in. It shows in the final product.

It’s still got potential for the modern era. The DNA is all there. The install base is there. The interest is there. The time is now.

Killzone 2 and 3 were farkin brilliant and way better than halo

Too bad they've abandoned em smh, then theres sony barely even acknowledging what us fans want. Every time they sale a certain high amount it get like that with them smh

Because Killzone games are awesome, that's the reason.

New ip after 3'rd horizon please 🙏

Give it to Bungie. The Helghast are awesome enemies and Bungie could make something really cool

not enough interest to keep it alive

I’m beating a dead horse here… but Resisitance FOM gun lay out was so fun, multiplayer was one of my top favorite experiences. Insomniac nailed it and I would love a remaster and maybe a redo with Reisistance 2. They listens to players who were wanting a Halo killer and it kind of lost its character from the first.

Warhawk, if they had just remade the first one not Starhawk which offered nice things like the build and battle.. but Warhawk was the best arcade shooter I ever played. Back when you didn’t have battle passes and you actually had to get certain amount of kills or ribbons to unlock different paint skins on the Warhawks and armor for your player.. Look at the success of Helldivers 2, it’s a fun game and it reminds me of Warhawk in a way. I’ve been wanting a remake or sequel since the beginning of the ps4 gen.. it’s hurts to have hope nowadays. Even with the demise of the studios Sony has a steady fan base.

Killzone game after Killzone 2 play style would be nice

Motorstorm would be epic with the visual upgrade, maybe this game would be a harder sell with the genre being not as popular nowadays..

Resistance franchise, Motorstorm and Dirt 2 which was fun as heck. Add Dead Space 2 as well.

I quickly looked and only saw the words PS5 Remaster and a picture of Fall of Mans logo

Ahhhh shit, well maybe one day

Resistance 1-3 remastered with online

Kill zone 1-3 remastered with online

God of war PS3 games and PSP games collection

Infamous 1-2 with all dlc please we need this. It’s such an underrated franchise and so much potential. In this age of super hero media craze Sony should utilize infamous

White knight chronicles 1-2

Warhawk and starhawk

Motorstorm series

MGS4

Easy money would be to remake Resistance and Killzone series, rather than just a remaster. And PS5 desperately needs some couch co-op shooters so this would scratch that itch.

Infamous 1+2 and KZ 2+3

Deus Ex Human Revolution

GTA IV needs one.
Still stuck on PS3 and 360.

PS3 ended up been a beast of a console, slow out of the gate, picked up steam, smashed through the finish line. The 1st PS3 slim is still one of my favourite consoles. So solid, great games, by the time GTA5 and the last of us had come out it was a clear winner for me

Nice to see that they included Pupetteer in this list.

"PS3 may not have been the strongest generation"

Meanwhile...just looking at exclusives alone and not even third party titles

Uncharted was born
Demon's Souls was born
Metal Gear Solid 4
God of War 3
The Last of Us was born
Little Big Planet was born
Warhawk
Killzone 2 and 3
Infamous was born
Resistance was born
Motorstorm was born
Gran Turismo
Heavy Rain
Journey
Shadow of the Colossus returned paving the way for the remake in the PS4 generation
PS Plus was born

Sorry bud, but the PS3 generation was amazing and featured the greatest console comeback in history.

That said, I'd love it if Warhawk returned or Metal Gear Solid 4. It needs to not be shackled to the PS3 generation anymore. A Killzone 2 remake would be insane with modern graphics and that art direction.

I really miss this gen of gaming. It felt like the last truly "great" era for videogames before the modern approach really took hold.

The PS3 was such a glorious console. The UI, the games, the free online...just incredible.

Add Mag to that list.

I would pay good money for a Warhawk remake. Socom too. The last Socom game just didn’t do it justice. Folklore could use a remaster or remake as well.
Several other titles I would like to remade with the amount of visual fidelity the current gen has over the past consoles it could help articulate the games that we’ve loved growing up. I would love even some ps2 titles to remade.. Dark Cloud from ps2, Legacy of Kain series but don’t know what will come of it sense it was bought by Embracer group and all there layoffs.

This strategy is exactly what helped ruin Xbox. Sony more than Microsoft know when to let a franchise go and that is important to keep things fresh. The old games are there if you want to play them.

Resistance series and Killzone 2 & 3 remasters/remakes. Make it happen. They will print money.

FF13 is top of this list for me. No matter your opinion on it, it being the only numbered offline FF out of all 16 not to be on new consoles is odd. GTA IV would be great too

The only reason my PS3 is still connected is because of the Resistance, Heavenly Sword, Motorstorm games that I still love to play. I am for remaking or remastering them.

Would absolutely love a remastered collection of the resistance games

Resistance 1-3 and Killzone 1-3 too. Folklore and 3 Dot Heroes are underrated gems.

Why remaster games that ps5 players can't access when you can remaster a 4 year old game like tlou2 that was already patched with ps5 improvements

Would love a remake of the first Resistance game and also Tools of Destruction.

A gem of a gen, imo! So much IP to pluck.

Infamous 1&2 will sadly always be ignored by Sony, not even a ps4 remaster the whole gen, smh but uncharted, horizon, even days gone had next gen upgrades sheesh 🤦🏽 mane even tho Sony is still doing pretty good in the console business they are a lil big headed lol, I never played the resistance series but it would of been dope to see those games updated as well, we fans get lil surprises here n there but things we really are into having and being vocal about gets passed over like a mf 🤣😩

Remasters are a waste of time and developer resources. Real Devs make new games.

God I would live a Killzone or Resistance collection. Really hoping for a new one in either franchise down the line, loved both series.

I’d say new sequels instead.

Got be resistance /prototype as well

How much prefer the killzone universe to that of Horizon's.

Killzone again pls 🥺

Gratz Guerilla, amazing Studio and engine, love Decima!

I was never a huge fan of Killzone, but thoroughly enjoy Horizon. Guerrilla are superb developer and easily up there with the best of the best.

Need a killzone 2 remake from the ground up.

One of the most creative studios out. I hope they keep it up.

Great studio, loved the Killzone series, I wish they would do a remake of the first three games. Horizon is a real step up and truly put Guerrilla Games on the map.

Too bad I never got a chance to play Shellshock: Nam’67 would have loved to try that game out back in the days to see what were their beginnings.

Bring back killzone (maybe in 3rd person perspective)

It would fantastic to see what they could do in Killzone after the lessons learned through Horizon.

Or heck, give us even a short linear FPS from the people who designed Cauldron THETA in the Burning Shores expansion. Even just flying into it (after gliding around and finding its opening amongst the lava and Sunwings perched around it, with other bigger machines just along the path toward it) was an incredible experience.

Great work until now. Keep on this path

Hope they get the opportunity to create a new IP this gen as well.

Forbidden West is awesome, It’s pretty damn big compared to Zero Dawn and it takes a little while to get your skills up and get the equipment you need to fully explore the game (not going to spoil it) but once you do those things and start fighting the big ass machines it really is amazing. Some cool side quests to where you hold the fate of peoples lives by your choice and the cauldrons look amazing. Lots of skills , combos, special moves and add ons for your weapons so you can approach fights many ways. Looking forward to the name game but I wonder how/if Silas will be a part of it or not ? Sad he’s gone.

Killzone games weren’t the best shooters but damn did they look purty!!!!

Killzone 2 remade with the multiplayer

20 years of mid-tier games and they are trending down.

I'm hyped for whenever Horizon 3 releases but Killzone 1 needs a remake BAD and 2 & 3 need remasters. Criminal those games are stuck on PS3.

Hold up

Horizon: Zero Dawn sold 24.3 million
The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild sold 29.81 million

With the way journalists have been consistently saying BotW overshadowed Horizon you’d think the gap between an entry in a new IP and a longrunning one would be bigger Even if you want to include however much the Wii U version of BotW did, both series still did impressive numbers

I never want to hear that Horizon is an overlooked franchise ever again

i really loved the atmosphere and idea of killzone. i hope they revisit it at some point because it always had so much potential.

Bring Back Killzone please or at least a KZ2 remake with MP.
