good addition. Hopefully this gets implemented in more games in the future. Crysis2 and BattlefieldBadCompany2 have it to so it's a great start.

whateva5811d ago

Top 5 already has been KillZowned! just from the scans alone

Strange_Evil5811d ago (Edited 5811d ago )

I love destructible environments and KZ3 should trump BFBC2 in those aspect.... KZ3 is shaping to be an awesome FPS... I only hope they keep the bots mode in KZ3 as well, otherwise I am gonna KILL someone!!!!

trounbyfire5811d ago

on the gears scans and i got the trolling stamp but like we both said KZ always goes to the top.

Hellsvacancy5811d ago

Whateva, i was thinking the same thing man, the PS3 is soooooo full of win

Xulap5811d ago

Great news!

Honestly, Battlefield: Bad Company 2 kinda spoiled me. I'm used to drive through everything and don't stop, taking everything that's on the way with me.

Now, when I play other games that are not BC2, and don't have destruction, I try to do the same thing to realize seconds later it's not possible. :(

Thanks, Guerrilla Games.

-Alpha5811d ago

This is definitely much needed for shooters and great.

You know, people thought K2 was going to have destructible environments but I was disappointed that I read that wrong. But since this is confirmed I am going insane. Once again, the engine is down so everything is focused on the most important aspect: Gameplay.

I hope they have a destructible engine better than BC2. As great as BC2 was it wasn't the best. Red Faction had great destructibility and I hope K3 follows in that suit. Even Gears 3 is having destructibility. This is going to be an insane E3.

Akagi5811d ago

It's because it's Killzone. But seriously, KZ2 is my no. 2 PS3 game.

Greywulf5811d ago

Online was great as well...

They had the engine nailed for Kz2...

I enjoyed the launch controls as well.

-Alpha5811d ago (Edited 5811d ago )

@Grey

I didn't say it wasn't varied :/

I enjoyed the gameplay a lot, but with more focus on gameplay we can finally expect to see co-op, more gameplay variety (like jetpacks), etc.

The launch controls were too clumsy at relatively close quarters. I enjoy the post-patch controls that maintained the heavy feel while removing the silly close-quarter dancing players did.

HolyOrangeCows5811d ago

Killzone + Destructible environments = Awesome

arakouftaian5811d ago

i know last time top new n4g was Killzone 2 allways on top before
in and after the game.
the impack Killzone 2 had is amazing and the hate is mindblowing .

i hope fanboys respect KILLZONE 3 GG with KILLZONE 2 won that respect.
(not saying KILLZONE 1 was bad i love the game but it had bugs
but that how next gen was that game in this era most game have bugs n this gen.
and if soemthign we can learn abouth killzone 2 is that future gen will be
polish and clean wich is good.

darkmurder5811d ago

I don't see this working out I'm sorry. Given the KZ2 engine where it had 'loading' every now and then in the actual game they can't maintain those graphics and have 'full destruction'. They'd either have to tone down the game or create a brand new engine for this to work. I don't believe personally it will be 'fully descructable' look at the destruction they advertised in the last one - hardly there.

nix5811d ago

loading every now and then??? i'm sorry but its not gears of war 2 mp we're talking here. unless you were talking about that split second pause that used to take place every 2 secs.

darkmurder5811d ago

I agree with you I just worded it like that so I wouldnt get the whole SDF on my head lol.

RageAgainstTheMShine5810d ago (Edited 5810d ago )

Those who bitch about Killzone 2 having no color, now Naughty Gods will paint it for you.

Battlefield 2 meets Killzone 2= no more campers!

all we need now are Gundam skins and we are all set.

Hideo_Kojima5810d ago

They are improving the graphics...
They are making it 3D which means at list 60FPS
They are making the scale bigger
They are making everything destructible

How can PS3 handle all this didn't Killzone 2 even stress it a bit? Either that or GG made a deal with the devil.

DaTruth5810d ago

I was wondering why nobody mentioned that yet; 3D, destructible environments, what's next open world!

I wonder will people enjoy this a lot? I'm kind of iffy on it a little bit, but if I can have a sword in the game, then I'll like it.

xabmol5811d ago

Or at least a melee only loadout wit a sword. Been wanting a ninja class DLC for BFBC2 for a while now. :D

Biggest5811d ago

What the hell is a ninja class? I've been in a fire fight or two in my life and I have yet to meet the man that breaks away from the pack to slice someone. I guess that Killzone or Halo type games could include something of the sort. But Bad Company/Modern Warfare types can not.

Jamegohanssj55811d ago

Xambol is smart. Bubbles up.

SuperbVillain5811d ago

a sword?....it's closer to the the year 2500 in this game and you want a f*cking sword?...are you retarded?

xabmol5811d ago

@Biggest

You've never seen me play BFBC2 have you? I probably have more dogtags than you have kills. I'm a sneaky bastard, I am.

@BiggestSuperDopetastic  

Tell that to a Jedi.

Super, Only an idiot trusts his life to a gun. I'm a swordsman through and through. Even Chuck Norris uses a sword : v ).

Dacapn5811d ago

Seriously, the sword idea? Retarded. Go play Red Steel 2.

pixelsword5811d ago (Edited 5811d ago )

It's not the first time that has been brought up in the killzone universe; but then again, most people didn't even care or read-up on the killzone universe and jumped-in at Killzone 2 when they saw the graphics.

(Unnamed sword, but it's probably a Petrusite-alloy or Petrusite energy-driven sword)

too good to be true

i am a killzone fan
i even got the 80gigs KILLZONE2 bundle
but im sorry but i think this is a rumor

i hope its true
I'd love if GG them self said so

B-Real2065811d ago

and I didn't read anywhere in the article that said full-on bc2 type destruction.

I was wrong when the first pic popped up on the net and I hope I'm wrong about this but I think it would to good to be true.

I'm gonna file this one in my not going to happen folder.

WhittO5811d ago (Edited 5811d ago )

They said that about the first game and it was only pre-scripted items that could be destroyed (like some tiles on a wall or a box).

But still, the effect of throwing a granade and watching it effect the environment and see the smoke sway with the direction of the wind was amazing.

Expecting really great things from K3 and this E3, hope it blows all other games away in terms of visuals (only because K2 is one of the best looking games ever and would look jaw-dropping if improved on)

Rumor5811d ago

multiplayer too please!!!

on a side note....god Natsu, one bubble?? u better get on the n4g community's good side while u still can

Megaton5811d ago

This used to be one of the things I always wanted in previous generations. Really like the Frostbite engine for this reason alone, and it's a tragedy that more games don't incorporate it.

gtamike5811d ago

play redfaction 1 for ps2 (not redfaction 2)

Megaton5811d ago

I know, Red Faction was one of the first games I had for my PS2.

execution175811d ago

DMC was my first PS2 game then MGS2 :P then i heard about RF bought then i couldn't put it down after that, shame RF2s destruction wasn't the same, sucked i wasn't able to make my own tunnels around unbreakable objects

blasian5811d ago

Now i wish someone would try hiding behind a wall and see if i dont blow that mofo up

MGRogue20175811d ago (Edited 5811d ago )

You've just 'Gotta love the PS3's CELL Processor! :D

Looks like they are finally going to be putting those SPUs through their paces, Can't wait to see the physics in action. :)

kneon5811d ago

I'm all for believable destructibility. What I don't want is what we got in BF:BC2 where it appears that the world is made of styrofoam.

FACTUAL evidence5811d ago

on another note: Co-op campaign online GG! I know you can do it!

Digitaldude5811d ago

I'm whoring over BC2 and think KZ3 will be 2x better.
Cannot WAIT.

"...timing your melee attacks correctly allows you to do things like stomp on an enemy's face with your boot..."

Vehicle combat
"Killzone 3, in particular, embraces elements that aren't necessary native to first-person shooters, such as vehicle based combat..."

Pure ownage! Killzone 3 is going to be so good!

Faztkiller5811d ago (Edited 5811d ago )

Only problem I have with destructible environments is the rubble disappearing Really annoying like body's disappearing right before your eye's in some games hate that

Anon73495811d ago

That only happens on consoles, usually on the PC version when there's rubble on the ground it stays there.

It's really difficult to incorporate it on consoles with their very limited specs.

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.

FinalFantasyFanatic510d 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.

Storm23510d 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.

lockedongamer1510d ago (Edited 510d 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!

Chocoburger501d ago

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

Up there with the top tier in the industry. Love Guerrilla Games - Horizon Burning Shores is simply STUNNING.

1Victor1076d ago

Can’t wait for their next franchise

SullysCigar1076d ago

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

jznrpg1076d ago

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

badz1491076d 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!

Vengeance11381076d 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 Kim1076d ago

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

VersusDMC1076d 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?

Vengeance11381076d ago

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

solideagle1076d 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.

Phoenix761076d ago

@shane, 2 full main games, 2 DLC add ons, 1 VR spin off game, oh and a an official LEGO set.

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.

blacktiger1076d ago

thank you fps lover, I'm with you

talocaca1076d ago

Such a wonderful studio. They deserve all their success.

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

OzzY-waZZy1076d ago (Edited 1076d ago )

Kinda wish they move on from Horizon tbh.

lukasmain1076d ago

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

Imalwaysright1076d ago

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

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

MadLad1827d 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.

Applejack1827d 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_B1827d ago

Even emulators are super simple to use.

jukins1827d 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.

1827d ago
Vegamyster1827d 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.

SinkingSage1827d ago

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

Rachel_Alucard1827d ago (Edited 1827d 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.

MadLad1826d ago

Did you purposely miss the entire point of my post?

Inverno1827d 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
