Will this sit at 0 degrees because it's from a real site?

Otheros005703d ago (Edited 5703d ago )

So let me ask you. what is a real site?

KILL-ALL-CURE5703d ago

Do you even exist outside my mind? 0.o

Kerrby5703d ago

Yeah it's a shame. A good site like this won't get any hits but a shithole like Ironstar Movement goes straight to the top (although the comments page is filled with how shit Ironstar actually is).

Mr Tretton5703d ago

KZ3 will continue KZ2s legacy as the best FPS this generation.

NarooN5703d ago

You want me to define "the best" for you? Okay. "KILLZONE".

garos825703d ago

and very insightful interview.

more articles like these should litter the front page

''As I witness Mother Nature's wrath unfurl on the news, I learn that the Killzone team took advantage of the natural disaster in Iceland. They studied high-definition footage of the volcanic eruption as a form of research for creating visual effects in their game. Absorbing as much reference material as possible, be it from history or from nature, is part of their creed.''

This is the quality of Developers we need in this Generation.

Killzone 3, not only an FPS Game.

CrAnKiTuP_015703d ago

Killzone 3 is a must-buy for me.

Sitris5703d ago

"They studied high-definition footage of the volcanic eruption as a form of research for creating visual effects in their game."
How bout that for some research! Super quality developers, extremely hyped for the Killzone conclusion!

blumatt5702d ago

I doubt it will be the conclusion. There will be more Killzone games. I can almost bet on that.

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.

FinalFantasyFanatic453d 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.

Storm23453d 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.

lockedongamer1453d ago (Edited 453d 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!

Chocoburger444d 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.

1Victor1019d ago

Can’t wait for their next franchise

SullysCigar1019d ago

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

jznrpg1019d ago

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

badz1491019d 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!

Vengeance11381019d 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 Kim1019d ago

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

VersusDMC1019d 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?

Vengeance11381019d ago

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

solideagle1019d 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.

Phoenix761019d 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

REDGUM1019d ago

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

thesoftware7301019d ago (Edited 1019d 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.

blacktiger1019d ago

thank you fps lover, I'm with you

talocaca1019d ago

Such a wonderful studio. They deserve all their success.

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

OzzY-waZZy1019d ago (Edited 1019d ago )

Kinda wish they move on from Horizon tbh.

lukasmain1019d ago

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

Imalwaysright1019d ago

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

Killzone 3 is playable with mouse & keyboard on PC via RPCS3 & KAMI

bouzebbal1770d ago

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

MadLad1770d 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.

Applejack1770d 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_B1770d ago

Even emulators are super simple to use.

jukins1770d 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.

Vegamyster1770d 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.

SinkingSage1770d ago

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

Rachel_Alucard1770d ago (Edited 1770d 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.

AzubuFrost1770d ago

Shhh don't say that aloud! You're going to trigger a lot of console infidels here.

Shane Kim1770d ago

I rather play it when it's available then wait 10 years.

MadLad1769d ago

Did you purposely miss the entire point of my post?

Inverno1770d 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

RevXM1770d ago

The RPCS3 devs are doing great work. And Kami works nicely with it too it seems.
Very neat.

Magatsuhi1770d ago

Been playing mgo on pc with mouse. It's not perfect but I can make it work.

Binarycode1770d ago

2 is the better game.

A Remake would be good. 60fps 2-4k

Omar3li1770d ago

60fps is peasant for FPS games now
