Killzone 2, better 3D than the motion controller

4News.it has written: "Guerrilla Games denies working on a patch for using the motion controller.
Actually Guerrilla is working on a different solution: 3D. Categorically denied any solution for motion contoller, the team confirmed that instead are studying the feasibility of issuing a patch to enable three-dimensional view, a feature which is published by Sony through firmware upgrade once the project is approved for its marketing . To enjoy this device, Sony has entered into agreement with RealD, the company that produces 3D glasses."

I like the 3-D loading screens, and I think the HUD would be great in 3-D.

Fishy Fingers5942d ago

The loading screens aren't 3D, they're just cleverly displayed to give the impression. But KZ2 would certainly make for a good 3D show case.

A Cupcake for Gabe5942d ago

I just want to see sh1t fly out of the screen when it's blown up.

joydestroy5942d ago

this would be awesome indeed!

DaTruth5942d ago (Edited 5942d ago )

Time to upgrade my hard drive; 1GB patches for every game!

DamonTheMoney5942d ago

Fu. King. Awe. Some. :D

I'm picking up a 3D TV in the next couple of years, and I'd absolutely love to see KZ2 in 3D. Can't wait!

-Alpha5941d ago

Yeah I know -_- But they had that cool 3-D effect.

It was pretty clever too, K2 loading times get pretty long if you switch in and out between campaign and MP so they were a great way to pass the time.

And the HUD in K2 is quite nice too.

Of course, seeing an ATAC falling down on you in 3-D would also look very impressive.

arakouftaian5941d ago

saying the loading times on killzone are long is patetic

your a f%#@$$ troll

i saw your had like 3 bubble a day ago how did you recover all of them?
multiple accounts?

on topic

killzone 2 will be nice on 3d

if someone can make me buy a 3d tv soon

is killzone in 3d

only if they don't cost over 2500 on the 55"

please sony make it easy for us

STONEY45941d ago

Actually from what I can tell, the loading times seem to get longer after every patch. I swear it didn't take so long when the game was launched.

I would play through again if a 3D patch is made, but won't if it is a motion control patch they make. I'm looking forward to trying gaming in real 3D, already tried the motion control thing on my Wii hated it, boxed up the Wii and buried it in the closet.

sikbeta5942d ago (Edited 5942d ago )

KZ2 + 3D = Epic Win

KZ2 + Motion-C = WTF?

vhero5942d ago (Edited 5942d ago )

I agree I mean which would be better Halo Reach with motion control or Killzone 2 in 3D? 3D is easily the better option motion control is now in the past Sony is moving with it sure but it's not the future for Sony. 3D is gonna be the next biggest thing since HD TV I mean even SKY TV are adding brand new 3D TV channels later this year to customers and 3D TV's are hitting the market. Motion controls are so 2000-2009.

Milky Joe5942d ago

What about KZ2 + 3D + Motion-C!?

Cenobia5942d ago

I think that has a lot of potential to make people physically ill.

DaTruth5942d ago (Edited 5942d ago )

All consoles will have motion controls by Fall(Finally Wii can be compared).

Wii had something that set it apart from the others and saw the sales because of it. For motion controls, you can go with any console but 3D will set PS3 apart from the pack. Nobody will buy a new console for MC, when they have one already hooked up to the television; But if you want 3D movies and games(possibly the next big gimmick comparable to Hi-Def), then you will have to buy a PS3!(Nobody thought people would shell out thousands of dollars for HDTV's, but I don't know a single person without one!)

I almost bought a Samsung 3DTV. Thank God as I would have caught the early adopter syndrome since it isn't the new 3D standard! ... Come to think of it, I bought a Bravia instead, which also isn't 3D ready, so either way!

FragGen5941d ago

total agreement.

One thing the Wii, DS, and PSP have proven to me is that a great game can be made into a coaster with a retarded/inappropriate controller mapping. A lot of DS and Wii games are completely gimped by devs forcing users to use their gimmicky controls (motion, touch screen) in lieu of something that would actually work correctly.

gijsbrecht5942d ago

I still don't see how that would work with an FPS. But then again, perhaps there is a clever way to make such a thing work.
As for the 3D stuff; would that work on a 'normal' HD television? If only some special pair of glasses are required to enjoy KZ2 in 3D on my new 46' Samsung, then I will gladly go through the campaign a couple more times. It's spectacular as it is right now, but in 3D, that would be amazing.

CARRIERHASARRIVED5942d ago (Edited 5942d ago )

About the Arc thing.. KZ2 is built around feeling weighty, if they use The Wand/Arc for it then won't the game lose all of its special weighty feeling? It would basically feel like a pc shooter wouldn't it? Twicthy.

gijsbrecht5942d ago (Edited 5942d ago )

I think you have a good point. The dual shock does add a lot to the experience, which would be lost with something like the Arc. Didn't even think about that.

corneliuscrust5942d ago

same reason why killzone2 will never come to PC.

You can't have a pointer style control with simulated weighty controls. It just feels like a delay and get's frustrating

Immortal3215942d ago

3d can really immerse a gamer

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

OtterX571d ago (Edited 571d ago )

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

TheNamelessOne571d ago (Edited 571d 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-ro571d ago

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

just_looken571d 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

MDTunkown571d ago

They should finish Horizon story first

darthv72571d 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_looken571d ago

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

Yui_Suzumiya571d ago

Yeah, a remake would be pretty awesome

anast571d ago

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

LucasRuinedChildhood571d 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.

OtterX801d ago (Edited 801d 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-ro800d ago

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

darthv72800d 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_800d ago

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

Cacabunga800d ago

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

Profchaos800d ago (Edited 800d 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

seanpitt23800d 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!

Iceball2000801d ago

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

Father__Merrin801d ago

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

InUrFoxHole800d ago

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

Marcus Fenix800d ago

A Resistance reboot will be awesome

Michiel1989800d ago

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

1Victor800d ago (Edited 800d 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 😱

Michiel1989800d 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.

1Victor1105d ago

Can’t wait for their next franchise

SullysCigar1105d ago

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

jznrpg1104d ago

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

badz1491104d 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!

Vengeance11381105d 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 Kim1105d ago

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

VersusDMC1104d 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?

Vengeance11381104d ago

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

solideagle1104d 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.

Phoenix761104d 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

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

thesoftware7301105d ago (Edited 1105d 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.

blacktiger1104d ago

thank you fps lover, I'm with you

talocaca1105d ago

Such a wonderful studio. They deserve all their success.

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

OzzY-waZZy1104d ago (Edited 1104d ago )

Kinda wish they move on from Horizon tbh.

lukasmain1104d ago

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

Imalwaysright1104d ago

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