No paying for Xbox Live means you could buy more games .......um xbl is 50 bucks at the most, thats not even enough for a new 360 game

Kamikaze1356307d ago

There are tons of 360 games that cost less than $60. Some are $40 brand new (Banjo Kazooie and Last Remnant come to mind).

RememberThe3576307d ago (Edited 6307d ago )

I don't have a gold account but thats cause i don't have many friends with 360's so I don't play on xbox live too often. However, I have to say that 50 bucks it's too bad, and I think if I had more friends with 360's I'd be more then willing to pay the fee.

EDIT: And where the hell is Foxy Brown?

shingo6307d ago (Edited 6307d ago )

What the hell are they talking about??? The game controls 100% perfect.

andron6307d ago

I have seen the video, but it's a youtube video and there's a lot of fakes out there.

I haven't encountered the problem in the demo or open beta. If there is a problem for some, it might have to do with their TV displays. Otherwise it would be much more widespread...

WildArmed6307d ago

The beta had NO issues what so ever.
Trying to get hits with the lag issue?
W/e im not here to judge.
Just a heads up, there wasn't ANY lag in all beta stages of Killzone 2... 32 player matches were insane. We'd play for hours non-stop.
Then all leave at once lol

WTF? Lag? WTF is this idiot taking about? Can some enlighten me about this "issues" of lag in Killzone 2?

RememberThe3576307d ago

It's pretty good... http://www.n4g.com/up/30095...

He says the same thing. The control lag is BS. And even if there was a slight lag, we're all gamer it's not like we couldn't adapt. Come on guys...

There really does seem like this is coming out of thin air. During the beta test you didn't hear anything about control lag, and now it's all over the place. I think the press just got too used to hating on Killzone 2, and now they don't know what to do with themselves.

andron6307d ago

I was in the open beta and have played the demo several times now, haven't encountered any lag. So it's probably not a problem with the game.

If someone has lag issues I guess it could be because of their TV or something as others have mentioned...

BaSeBaLlKiD7216307d ago

i was in the multiplayer beta and it was the best online experience i had this generation... and THAT WAS THE BETA!!! I CANT IMAGINE HOW FUN THE RETAIL VERSION WILL BE!

SwiffEpics6307d ago

check it out here http://www.thekoalition.com...

im surprised you aint heard about this yet because its been all over n4g and other sites.

TheExecutive6307d ago

the controls are said to be a little quicker in MP. You should check it out. Secondly, all games that are in KZ2 multiplayer are dedicated servers. Not one game will be hosted by the players. The great thing about the PSN is that they have dedicated servers. Thirdly, all people will have the same "controller lag" the playing field will be equal.

I have read countless impressions of the beta and very very few said anything about lag. I am going to have to take their word on it until I have played it for myself but a few very trusted people have convinced me that it isnt a problem. I guess we will have to wait and see but I dont see the singleplayer controls as a problem.

shingo6307d ago (Edited 6307d ago )

Those few whiners are CoD kids who cannot adapt to the newly innovative controls, or fanboys who are trolling the game.

It's definitely one of the two.

The game controls 100% perfect to me: both the Beta and the demo.

thebudgetgamer6307d ago (Edited 6307d ago )

IVE SEEN NONE

ps3 owners should buy more games?

ive owned my ps3 since march 08, and i own 13 disk games and 9 psn titles

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

OtterX575d ago (Edited 575d ago )

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

TheNamelessOne574d ago (Edited 574d 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-ro575d ago

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

just_looken574d 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

MDTunkown575d ago

They should finish Horizon story first

darthv72575d 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_looken574d ago

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

Yui_Suzumiya574d ago

Yeah, a remake would be pretty awesome

anast575d ago

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

LucasRuinedChildhood575d 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.

OtterX804d ago (Edited 804d 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-ro804d ago

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

darthv72804d 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_803d ago

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

Cacabunga803d ago

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

Profchaos803d ago (Edited 803d 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

seanpitt23803d 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!

Iceball2000804d ago

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

Father__Merrin804d ago

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

InUrFoxHole804d ago

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

Marcus Fenix804d ago

A Resistance reboot will be awesome

Michiel1989804d ago

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

1Victor804d ago (Edited 804d 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 😱

Michiel1989804d 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.

1Victor1108d ago

Can’t wait for their next franchise

SullysCigar1108d ago

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

jznrpg1107d ago

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

badz1491107d 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!

Vengeance11381108d 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 Kim1108d ago

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

VersusDMC1108d 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?

Vengeance11381108d ago

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

solideagle1108d 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.

Phoenix761108d 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

REDGUM1107d ago

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

thesoftware7301108d ago (Edited 1108d 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.

blacktiger1107d ago

thank you fps lover, I'm with you

talocaca1108d ago

Such a wonderful studio. They deserve all their success.

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

OzzY-waZZy1108d ago (Edited 1108d ago )

Kinda wish they move on from Horizon tbh.

lukasmain1108d ago

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

Imalwaysright1107d ago

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