Killzone 2 PS3 Bundle Coming to Europe

GOONL!NE: "It seems that Sony are all set to release a official PS3 bundle with the game and a PLAYSTATION 3 if this packshot is anything.

The bundle is for Europe only right now with no current plans from either SCEA or SCEJ as of now but we'll hedge a bet that SCEA will do something similar and announce it just before launch.

No price has been given yet but we'll assume it'll be out with the game on Februrary 25th in Europe and February 27th in the UK"

Holy crap that package design looks sick! You lucky Europeans!

Cwalat6361d ago

i'm thinking....

hmm.. okey?

why do a bundle.. if they don't change the console itself with a cool design.

either they'll make it cheaper than buying the game and console seperatelly, or this is just stupid.

would be awesome to have "killzone 2" logo on PS3, or something atleast...

weird ... :S

Danja6361d ago

exactly would have been cool to have a KZ2 logo or summuh like MGS4 did

Fowack6361d ago

related to killzone atleast.

hazeblaze6361d ago

That box art is really sick! If they drop the price I might want to get a 2nd PS3 and give the one I have now away!

boodybandit6361d ago

Hey Europe are you feeling the Sony love now? ;)
You guys deserve it!

Aclay6361d ago (Edited 6361d ago )

Damn, this Killzone 2 bundle is MEGATON. Sony definantly needs to bring this to the United States as well.

A PS3 price cut with this bundle would do wonders, but even without a price cut, this bundle is gonna move some tons more systems guaranteed.

And that Box design is just SICK. You can't miss seeing that Box in the store with those Helghast Eyes.

FarEastOrient6361d ago

Come on Sony, I like my Metallic Blue PS3 (one of them), why do you think SCEA and SCEE are alergic to colors or painting schemes on their PS3s?

I'm currently playing White Knight Chronicles... WoW

kwicksandz6361d ago

Lucky Europeans???

Are we even talking about the same sony here?

Have you SEEN the PAL PSN?

Taking the territory you have sh1t on for this long and throwing them a bone ( 2 day release window, doesnt make up for the 2 month R2 wait)hardly lets us PAL suckers class as lucky.

MiloGarret6361d ago

Agreed.

KZ2 bundle huh? A friend of mine's birthday is coming up, and if that thing is any cheaper than buying them separately, that's what he'll get. Congrats.

Marquis_de_Sade6360d ago

Kwicksandz, I agree 100%. I have owned a PS3 alone for about 6 months now, before that I had an X360. Perhaps I was too used to MS providing worldwide release dates, but I am both shocked and appalled at the general practice of Sony, why do Europeans have to wait for everything?

RemmM6360d ago

Americans are TOO skeptical with the PS3 (Oh,I don't wanna spend $600 for this game or that game) Even if its $400, its STILL too much for Americans. For Europeans its no problem, PS3s sell the most in Europe, SONY gives Europe the glory because its where their consoles sell the most.

xwabbit6360d ago

WTH MAN!, Resident Evil gets a custom skin and this game which is even bigger IMO doesn't.... WTF SONY!! I'm srry but dam.... come on :/
WAS..... i repeat... was looking forward 2 the bundle now I'm not. Ill just get the game i guess.

SHEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE E EEEEEEEEEE-

ITE

(As in being suprised in marvel)

Johnny Cullen6361d ago

I have to admit, thats the best pack design for a bundle I have seen ever.

Its probably the most original too as all the bundle packshots are pretty much the console and the boxart of the game (eg: LittleBigPlanet or Gears of War 1 bundle for the Xbox 360)

Carbide76361d ago

Damn, that thing will stand out anywhere. Sex.

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

OtterX595d ago (Edited 595d ago )

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

TheNamelessOne595d ago (Edited 595d 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-ro595d ago

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

just_looken595d 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

MDTunkown595d ago

They should finish Horizon story first

darthv72595d 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_looken595d ago

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

Yui_Suzumiya595d ago

Yeah, a remake would be pretty awesome

anast595d ago

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

LucasRuinedChildhood595d 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.

OtterX824d ago (Edited 824d 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-ro824d ago

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

darthv72824d 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_824d ago

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

Cacabunga824d ago

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

Profchaos824d ago (Edited 824d 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

seanpitt23824d 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!

Iceball2000824d ago

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

Father__Merrin824d ago

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

InUrFoxHole824d ago

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

Marcus Fenix824d ago

A Resistance reboot will be awesome

Michiel1989824d ago

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

1Victor824d ago (Edited 824d 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 😱

Michiel1989824d 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.

1Victor1128d ago

Can’t wait for their next franchise

SullysCigar1128d ago

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

jznrpg1128d ago

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

badz1491128d 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!

Vengeance11381128d 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 Kim1128d ago

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

VersusDMC1128d 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?

Vengeance11381128d ago

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

solideagle1128d 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.

Phoenix761128d 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

REDGUM1128d ago

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

thesoftware7301128d ago (Edited 1128d 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.

blacktiger1128d ago

thank you fps lover, I'm with you

talocaca1128d ago

Such a wonderful studio. They deserve all their success.

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

OzzY-waZZy1128d ago (Edited 1128d ago )

Kinda wish they move on from Horizon tbh.

lukasmain1128d ago

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

Imalwaysright1128d ago

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