Killzone 3 like K2 will flop because no PS3 owner will buy it. They hype things for no reason.

BTW... BC2 destroys K2 graphically.

killzowner5961d ago

360 owners have been aching for something as good as k2 graphically for almost a year, you say the same thing at every fps game that comes out, hasnt come true so far has it :)

Double075961d ago

Lmfao at 1.

And I love how your mocking the PS3 for reliability when your a proud owner / defender of the most unreliable console in the history of gaming.

bageara5961d ago (Edited 5961d ago )

He gets owned on every comment he makes.Just take his bubbles and be gone with him

raztad5961d ago

@Killzowner

You definitely right.

Xboxers pry everyday for a game at least close to KZ2. They are hyping Brink (there is a Eurogamer preview around) and now BC2. Lets them wish while we play the absolute best tactical FPS out there.

All this chit-chat about KZ3 makes me want to play some more KZ2.

DonCorneo5961d ago

think about this: even though kz2 was released earlier, it is still better looking than Failo ODLC. shouldn't newer games have better graphics?

oh wait, i forgot. bots can't think.

silverbeld5961d ago

PP is that you?

Are you still alive?

Still trolling with spams on all the internet?

Rikuson15960d ago

remember killzone 2 has been in development for so damn long its just a raw ass game dude. and the fact still stays the same:
you see Uncharted 1? it got reviews and Uncharted 2? even better why because it takes 1st party sony developers 2 times to get it right. Remember Resistance:FOM? at the time it was an ok game. then R2 came out and that was crazy (even tho people say it was still MEH) R3 for Nov.2010! and something tells me they are going to hit there sweet spot with that 1.
Same rule applies with Killzone 2 baby, something tells me Kz3 will be even crazier...remember Uncharted 1,Resistance1 and KZ2 were all test drives and U2 delivered, R2 somewhat delivered, R3 will definitely deliver and Kz3 will rape Mw2..

Killzone 3 Graphical master piece only possible on the PS3.

AliTheBrit195961d ago

Clearly also possible on a PC

Where it was made..

And Since an Xbox 360 is basically a PC...

See where I'm going with this? or do I need to spell it out some more?

TheBand1t5961d ago

Sure, it would be possible. You'd just have to compress and downgrade areas in order to get it to work.

Levels in KZ2 are about 2 gigs a pop. So you'd have to split it onto multidiscs on 360.

AliTheBrit195961d ago

^^ Maybe dude, but it still is POSSIBLE isn't it?

And are you really telling me that Killzone 2 is only possible as a massive needs for storage? because thats just bad developing right there.

TheBand1t5961d ago

No, it's called a convenience. Having 25 gigs of storage and universal hard drives allows for more uncompressed data.

At the end of the day though, I want proof that the 360 can do Killzone 2 and Uncharted 2 levels of graphics, not the possibility of it.

cereal_killa5961d ago

You know dam well if it could be done (graphics as good as Uncharted or Killzone) on the 360 then why hasn't it been done yet M$ continues to use the same old outdated engines (UE and Valves engine) and since Gears 1 has maxed the 360 and Gears 2 wasn't much different than the first. Plain and simple IF IT CAN BE DONE PROVE IT until then it's only possible on the PS3.

xcox5961d ago

"See where I'm going with this? or do I need to spell it out some more?

yeah, you're going down the toilet:

You must be wearing some thick 360 fanboy goggles to own both systems and not notice the difference.

Noctis Aftermath5961d ago

they won't need to modify the engine much, so here's hoping for a Co-op mode.

SnuggleBandit5961d ago

I hope they fix some of the voice-acting, that was really my only gripe with the last installment of Killzone 2 (barring visari cause his VA is amazing)

raztad5961d ago

KZ3 is a given. KZ2 already gathered a massive fanbase. New additions like coop would make the game even more enjoyable.

KZ3 will up the visual bar once more, I feel sorry for those trying to catch up.

OpenGL5961d ago (Edited 5961d ago )

Killzone 2 was a solid game, but some improvements could definitely be made. I'm also curious to see sort of graphical improvement there will be. I wouldn't expect a HUGE jump, but I wonder if it'll surpass Uncharted 2(or Heavy Rain or whatever else is out at its release) as the PS3's best looking game.

BRG90005961d ago

Does "Rumor: _______ Confirmed" strike anyone else as an oxymoron?

ico925961d ago (Edited 5961d ago )

1.longer campaingn the level design was absolutley incredible in killzone 2 its a shame the campaign didnt last so long
2.co-op mode would be epic i couldnt think of a better game for co-op it felt like a squad shooter
3.better story..now personaly i think the whole concept behind killzone 2 is great , it uses the nazi germany theme for inspiration and kinda converts it to a futuristic space shooter but the problem with killzone 2 was with the characters they were undeveloped the fast half of story is virtually asleep and then during the later half it starts to get interesting,cinematic,and engaging but the characters are so underdeveloped you dont really care for them and as result you didnt care about the story i found that quite dissapointing.

and yeah thats about it i didnt really have anything wrong with the game thats all really

VictorSullivan5961d ago

On a purely technical level, Killzone 2's engine is much more impressive. Uncharted has a much better art direction though.

The Lazy One5961d ago

it's a RUMOR that killzone 3 is CONFIRMED for 2011, but somehow it will release in 2010?

buh?

LiquifiedArt5961d ago (Edited 5961d ago )

- No Aim Assist in Scope mode
- Default of 32 Players is too high
- Not enough expansive Multiplayer levels (especially to support 32 players)
- Too hard to kill someone (takes too many shots and with limted AA, its very hard)
......others
- Party system
- death match
- More Game modes
- Default Server Configurations (so we don't get 100 lame games, people create, that suck)
- Halo-esche style ranking system
- Do not force people to unlock stuff to use other weapons (just leads to bullcrap games being made, for quick level ups)
- More expansive ranking (Prestige style)

You can disagree all you want. I'm a Hardened Sony fanboy and have 100+ hrs in killzone 2 and My complaints (specifically the first few) are accurate. KZ3 will never be a bombshell of a game with changes, i've come to realize this and if you dont' your a child in denial.

Anyone says that not having Aim Assist in Scope mode, is a complete moron. Same with the 100 shots to kill someone. Until these are changed Crappy generic military games (COD) will outshine a stylized game like Killzone.

Truth*

Blaster_Master5961d ago

The only way im gonna buy this game is under 2 conditions.

1) Fix that weighty feel bullcrap and give us responsive controls. KZ2 was the first game I ever played that turned me off simply because of the controller lag. And no the update didn't fix anything when they added sensitivity boost. It made it worse.

2) Have more maps for the online @ launch. Also, fix the crappy online menus KZ2 had. It would be easier if they just had a quick match with your party option. It would also help out with some people not having all the map packs. Sorta how like the COD franchise does it.

jcgamer5961d ago

When speaking in a video interview with a Dutch TV Show recently, Guerilla Studios employee Jan-Bart Van Beek is reported to claim "Right now, Killzone 3 for a release in 2011, is being developed. Who knows, maybe we'll see the game even as early as 2010."

Ju5961d ago (Edited 5961d ago )

I don't expect KZ3 to be much different then 2 (in regards of co-op or such - maybe an online co-op is possible, but sure no split screen). 4 player online co-op with the 3 other buddies would be cool.

I think they will improve their render tech, though. Some might be art direction (level design, character design, lip sync/facial expressions/mo-cap etc.) and some changes might just be optimizations, like full dynamic water, reflection, more destruction, more colors (? jungle level anyone?).

Please, no CoD style gun handling. If there's one thing I don't need in KZ is an arcade style online shooter. No thx. Enough out there already.

Actually, I just started UC2 "horde" mode (sorry, but that's what it is). Now, come up with more maps and more then 3 players. Done deal. No need for DM any more... and then, by end of 2010/2011 I am ready for a KZ3 challenge there :)

ThanatosDMC5961d ago (Edited 5961d ago )

I'm hoping to kill Rico... bastard needs to die.

^ Speaking of Aim Assist. In Borderlands, even if you turn it off when you use scope, it'll move it for you when your enemy runs away. It pisses me off greatly. My gun, my character, and it's suppose to be my aim! I hate aim assist.

gaffyh5961d ago

Most likely February 2011, as I expected. Sony will leave the holiday open for Resistance 3.

xTruthx5961d ago

Love the title "Killzone 3 Confirmed for 2011" while there's a RUMOR right behind it. Really professional

Foliage5961d ago

It's impossible for something to be confirmed and a rumour at the same time. I can't click on the link, this site is already a failure.

VictorSullivan5961d ago

Killzone 2 had about 'right' for the amount of bullets it takes to kill someone.

By the way, if you're gonna want more damage, then keep aim assist out of scope mode. Or keep it the same in terms of damage and make it aim assisted. Not both.

Unending Punishment5961d ago

Rumor or Confirmed, which is it?

Jeez.

Lifendz5961d ago

Why not make it the Holiday release? That engine was already gorgeous. I know I'm going to be amazed when I see what they did with it for KZ3. Killzone 3 just needs an aggressive and sensible ad campaign ala what Uncharted 2 got.

ReviewsArePolitics5961d ago

Uncharted 2 destroys Killzone 2 in every way, including technically. It pushes more polygons on the screen, that's for sure. Hell, the Killzone characters are mostly ugly and look lifeless compared to Uncharted 2.

Killzone 3, who knows, it might raise the bar in graphics again. But I hope it has more variety than the previous one because I got bored so fast, it's basically another FPS which is almost as generic as Halo or MW2, no thanks; I like the music, the sounds, the graphics and hell the controls, but the game turned repetitive after a while; the storyline behind the first and the PSP game are good but Killzone 2's story sucked, and the acting was really poor; Uncharted 2's acting is best compared to anything.

For console FPS, I prefer Resistance. It's more fun than any of the crap on all platforms, especially the first one.

bloop5961d ago

I agree ReviewsArePolitics. I think U2 definitley topped KZ2 graphic wise. I wish GG started work on a new IP instead of a KZ sequel. I thought KZ2 was graphically amazing, but at the end of the day it was just another FPS and the universe/characters/story didn't appeal to me what so ever. I'd like to see them flex their muscle on something else.

Xbox Avatars Shoe5961d ago

How can you put "rumor" and "confirmed" in the same sentence? That's like saying "I could be completely wrong but I'm pretty sure it's 100% true."

sikbeta5961d ago (Edited 5961d ago )

2011 fits perfect for KZ3, It'll blow us up!!!!

Killzone 2: The Real war simulator

Don't care if is a rumor XP

Ravage275960d ago

idk if MAG can last me for 2 years(no games can actually).

Pity they killed Garza, he was pretty likable and it's fun watching him and Sev interact.

You guys think there will be any vehicles? I would like splitscreen option but i'm keeping my expectations low.

DaTruth5960d ago

I'm probably wrong, but I'm certain I'm right!

cyberwaffles5960d ago

can't even imagine how good it will look. still remember how i had to lift my jaw watching those KZ2 multiplayer trailers a while back.

hoping for at least a 2011 release.

I'm certain you're probably wrong.

killzone 2 has garnered the same sales as forza 3 looks to take, that makes forza 3 a flop too, right?

Man_of_the_year5961d ago

Except KZ2 has been out a year while Forza3 has been out 2 weeks

So you are saying that in the 1 year it took for KZ2 to reach in sales....Forza 3 has done in only 2 weeks?

Even when you try to Troll, you still screw it up. Ignorant/incompetent Droid.

raztad5961d ago

@Man

Why so harsh? You should know most of game sales are made in the first weeks, specially in the xbox where their fans love to brag about massive first day sales.

killzowner5961d ago (Edited 5961d ago )

killzone 2 has reached 2 million in sales, forza 3 has barely reached half a mill. At this same point after its release, killzone 2 was nearer to 1mill than forza 3 is. Can you read well? I said "LOOKS to take" as in what it is going to sell. Dumbass

Oh my bad @ man of the year, killzone 2 had actually surpassed a million in sales after 2 weeks and btw its nearer to 3 weeks after forza 3s release so its sold less than half that kz2 did. Nice comeback effort btw :)

shazui1235961d ago

No, I think hes trying to say that forza 3 sold less in the same timerame as KZ2, look up the numbers, in 2 weeks (and a bit) forza 3 sold 0.62 mill. In 2 weeks KZ2 sold 1.1 Dont klnow why you tried to prove Forza 3 sold more :S

You got any VALID links that prove those numbers or are you just pulling ignorant Opinions out of your Deluded sony fanboy ass?

I read that that the 360 failure rate was around 33% while the PS3 is around 72%....its the truth because i said it was on a forum..../sarcasm.

There's too many games to choose from

No Metal geat solid 1,2,3,4?
No Resident evil?
No Silent hill?
No Midnight club 3?
No NfS Underground 2?
No Final Fantasy?
No Burnout 3?
No Dragon quest 8?
No Days gone?
No Ace combat?
No Tekken/Soul calibur?......
just from the top of my head

PS1 era was full of great RPGs, PS2 was racing generation i would pick top 200 and even that would be just a fraction.

FinalFantasyFanatic466d ago

30 is way too low over the entire history of Playstation, I just wouldn't be able to narrow it down that much, I would pick 100 at least.

Storm23466d ago

Yeah...really odd list. I get that it is personal preference and I love most of the games listed, but my list would definitely be different. I agree though, it would be incredibly difficult to come up with just 30.

lockedongamer1466d ago (Edited 466d ago )

I only picked first-party titles. Otherwise, I agree!

EDIT: Except for Days Gone, I don't get the love for it but you do you!

I didn't like Days Gone either, it doesn't deserve to be on any best of list.

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!

Vengeance11381032d 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 Kim1032d ago

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

VersusDMC1032d 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?

Vengeance11381032d ago

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

solideagle1032d 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.

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.

Still looks secure 2 gens later... one of my favorite ps3 moments. With 3D and move the game is on another level

MadLad1783d ago

PC almost always ends up the best place to play games, even if it takes a while.

What would you rather play decades down the line? A game at a fixed resolution and frame, considering you have a working disc, and the hardware?
Or run it on an emulator that can update the experience all around, and let you use whatever control input you prefer?

If you insist on the former, it's really only for the sake of nostalgia.

Applejack1783d ago

I disagree. The main draw for consoles has always be the simplicity of just putting the disc in / downloading it and playing without worrying about anything else. The average person just wouldn’t want to deal with emulation even though it’s very important for preservation.

Terry_B1783d ago

Even emulators are super simple to use.

jukins1783d ago

Youre getting flak because people on here thibk of themselves as pc wizards. But honestly most poeple try and go get emulators and romz they end up with malware.. yes theyre "easy" if you know the basics but alot of people dont. That said the fact that its taken nearly 20 years to get a sustantially better experience for ps3 games than on its native system shows the complexity of getting bc to work. Sony, if they have any intention, should just invest in a vastly better psnow experience.

1783d ago
Vegamyster1783d ago

jukins

Most people who emulate don't get malware, you'd have to be going to some weird sites for that to happen, heck years ago people were getting sketchier ad's resulting in malware warning on this site if you didn't have a ad-blocker lol.

SinkingSage1782d ago

Can't get malware if you legally dump your own games, which you should.

Rachel_Alucard1782d ago (Edited 1782d ago )

That's fine if that's the main draw, but it doesn't make it a better experience, just a preference. Having the freedom to do the things you can do on PC is what the appeal of PC is. Buying a game on PC means you never have to worry about the console makers just deciding the next hardware shouldn't support the generation anymore, which means everything you bought is stuck on that hardware instead of moving up with everything else. Nintendo uses this tactic to keep reselling the same games over and over at inflated prices. Sony cut all previous gens off the PS4 and sold it back to people in a poor attempt with PSnow. While the PS5 supports PS4 games, that may not be the case in the next gen after this. No to mention shutting off all the previous stores and updates completely. Even MS stopped making new BC titles at some point, so now there's a big list with 17 pages of titles that are not playable on Xbone and are just trapped on older gen. That's not a problem on PC, the reverse happens where you only have to worry if your hardware can play the newest releases at ultra with no issue.

MadLad1782d ago

Did you purposely miss the entire point of my post?

Inverno1783d ago

Well that's the beauty of still owning a retro console tho. Those who usually complain about emulation are just being blindly loyal to a company. Emulation is great for many reason, but if I still owned the console then I disagree nothing beats plugging it back in and going down a nostalgia trip
