Dille Talks PSP Store, Killzone 2

Speaking to Game Informer, Dille partly lifted the veil of secrecy surrounding the content that will be made available via Sony's upcoming PSP Store, announced last week.

When asked whether the PSP Store will focus on movies and music, Dille confirmed the expectation in a round about way, and acknowledged that Sony should have been more persistent in this area prior to now.

"We were a little bit coy about revealing all of the plans, but I think all of the above… The missing ingredient for us has been making it easier for consumers to get video content or music content to the PSP, because the device has this awesome technical playback capability, awesome screen built for video and yet we don't make it terribly easy for people to access any content. So we're looking to fix that. We've got a lot of people hard at work on it we look forward to rolling that plan out and that service out later this year. But be patient, we hope it won't be much further."

I for one think it is about time that the PSP is able to download movies and such. I think this will be good for both Sony and itunes. Because each service will want to out do the other. So as of right now Sony is behind but if they really want this service to do good they could. This can only make each service better so I am all for this.

As on KZ I can't wait to see what will have changed from 05 to now. I do have to wonder if they are just talking about a Beta if it will not be ready this year. I do think it would be best to come out next year. At least I think it would be best that way Sony does not cannibalize there other great games that are coming out. Plus there is also Halo. So you have to wonder if it would be best for KZ to come out when it has nothing to worry about.

THE_JUDGE6857d ago

I have no idea why Sony didn't implement this wayyyyy before. I don't really use my psp for movies and music, but if its cheaper or priced the same as Itunes the psp has a bigger screen so I'd use it.

gta_cb6857d ago (Edited 6857d ago )

can you imagen downloading something like Spiderman 3! i can and i think it would be great! =D

i have wanted something like this for the PSP since i owned an Xbox 360 because of LIVE. if the PSP gets this and maybe "HOME" then i would deff be on it trying it out! =D but then i dont know if something like HOME would run ok on a PSP...

"I have no idea why Sony didn't implement this wayyyyy before"

i personally think this is one of those Sony mistakes people have been talking about. Mainly focusing on the PS3 was needed, BUT still i think the PSP has been neglected too much and so i am glad they have said there focusing on it more. also the PSN is more relavent to the PS3 so maybe they where still trying to build it as best as they could... i dunno just guessing.

Premonition6857d ago

So lets see new redeisgned PSP+ this and hopefully better PS3+PSP connection makes the future look a little better :)

lil bush6857d ago

that would be cool if the psp could download movies from the ps3.......

LoveHateTragedy6857d ago

He does bring up some really important issues that need to be fixed. I would love to have the exact same online ease-of-use as the PS3, though there are some RAM limitations. Being able to access the PSN would be pretty sweet.

The PSP's been neglected for a while, so hopefully they'll be able to focus on it once all the heavy-duty PS3 work is finished this fall.

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

OtterX492d ago (Edited 492d ago )

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

TheNamelessOne492d ago (Edited 492d 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-ro492d ago

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

just_looken492d 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

MDTunkown492d ago

They should finish Horizon story first

darthv72492d 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_looken492d ago

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

Yui_Suzumiya491d ago

Yeah, a remake would be pretty awesome

anast492d ago

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

LucasRuinedChildhood492d 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.

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-ro721d ago

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

darthv72721d 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_721d ago

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

Cacabunga721d ago

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

Profchaos721d ago (Edited 721d 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

seanpitt23721d 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!

Iceball2000721d ago

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

Father__Merrin721d ago

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

InUrFoxHole721d ago

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

Marcus Fenix721d ago

A Resistance reboot will be awesome

Michiel1989721d ago

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

1Victor721d ago (Edited 721d 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 😱

Michiel1989721d 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.

1Victor1025d ago

Can’t wait for their next franchise

SullysCigar1025d ago

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

jznrpg1025d ago

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

badz1491025d 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!

Vengeance11381025d 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 Kim1025d ago

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

VersusDMC1025d 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?

Vengeance11381025d ago

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

solideagle1025d 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.

Phoenix761025d 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

REDGUM1025d ago

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

thesoftware7301025d ago (Edited 1025d 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.

blacktiger1025d ago

thank you fps lover, I'm with you

talocaca1025d ago

Such a wonderful studio. They deserve all their success.

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

OzzY-waZZy1025d ago (Edited 1025d ago )

Kinda wish they move on from Horizon tbh.

lukasmain1025d ago

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

Imalwaysright1025d ago

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