Sony Quiet on Killzone 3 Beta

"There seems to have been screenshots and videos placed on the net revealing PSN users playing Guerrilla Games' upcoming first person shooter, Killzone 3. Many people are assuming this means that a beta is right around the corner, so Nick from TheGamerAccess.com went ahead and did some investigating and received a response from Alex Armour, Sony Spokesperson for Killzone 3."

Lol looks like Sony is doing what they did with MAG last year.

Nitrowolf25773d ago

they do it with every beta
Resistance
warhawk
just wait for someone to put a pic of someone with DC beta

Megaton5773d ago

You mean they're announcing it months before it starts? Cause that's what they did with the MAG beta.

I still remember HHG trying to play insider info in the comments section here by "letting it slip" that there will be a MAG beta about a month after Sony confirmed there would be.

"I still remember HHG trying to play insider info in the comments section here by "letting it slip" that there will be a MAG beta about a month after Sony confirmed there would be."

Well you see what happened was HHG was kickin' it with KB one day and they used his time machine and went to the future and that's when HHG found out about the MAG beta but on the way back there where some technical difficulties with the time machine and they didn't go back to the right time.

Girlgamer1165773d ago (Edited 5773d ago )

I need to get into this beta!
I guess I be getting PSN Plus After all.
Hopefully this game is faster than the second
one! I got bored of KZ2 because it was just slow!

MAR-TYR-DOM5773d ago

IMO, COD4 is the most REVOLUTIONARY FPS game this generation. KZ2 is technically and graphically the best still though.

SOAD5773d ago

Are you trying to be funny?

Philaroni5773d ago

Like I said, they plan to show off KZ3 MP at GamesCom, my guess is they will have a beta announcement during that. After all GG are a EU Dev. No need to comment on this from Sonys end if they plan to announce it in 3 weeks.

mumbo1015773d ago

does this mean I'm going to need playstation plus? -_-

Nick2120045773d ago

To be honest with you, I think every beta on PS3 from now on will be for PlayStation Plus subscribers.

LordMarius5773d ago

if there are enough subscribers.....if...

Philaroni5773d ago

Thats how it should be. Betas cost are not cheep to run and in alot of ways can turn users off from the game. That and Sony has a crap load of games they can use to push PS+ with the beta. KZ3, U3, R3, Socom 4, and others. They might as well deliver on the promise of betas for plus users. I do see them still giving it out to people maybe a month after or something. I feel the AC beta might be for PS+ users as well, correct me if they have said otherwise.

Nitrowolf25773d ago (Edited 5773d ago )

actually it will probably the same traditional way with any Plus member getting in guarantee, and then the traditional email invite/ website give away
i am hoping for the first beta this month (DC) which i think thye said started the first week of august

TheLastGuardian5773d ago (Edited 5773d ago )

sad but true

raztad5773d ago (Edited 5773d ago )

@marius

Dont worry about it. Right now there are a lot, and it will increase big time if early betas (or early demos) of GT5/LBP2/KZ3 are announced.

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.

FinalFantasyFanatic546d 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.

Storm23546d 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.

lockedongamer1546d ago (Edited 546d 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!

Chocoburger537d 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.

1Victor1112d ago

Can’t wait for their next franchise

SullysCigar1112d ago

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

jznrpg1112d ago

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

badz1491112d 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!

Vengeance11381112d 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 Kim1112d ago

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

VersusDMC1112d 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?

Vengeance11381112d ago

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

solideagle1112d 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.

Phoenix761112d 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

REDGUM1112d ago

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

thesoftware7301112d ago (Edited 1112d 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.

blacktiger1112d ago

thank you fps lover, I'm with you

talocaca1112d ago

Such a wonderful studio. They deserve all their success.

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

OzzY-waZZy1112d ago (Edited 1112d ago )

Kinda wish they move on from Horizon tbh.

lukasmain1112d ago

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

Imalwaysright1112d ago

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

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

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

MadLad1863d 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.

Applejack1863d 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_B1863d ago

Even emulators are super simple to use.

jukins1863d 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.

1863d ago
Vegamyster1863d 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.

SinkingSage1863d ago

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

Rachel_Alucard1863d ago (Edited 1863d 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.

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

Shane Kim1863d ago

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

MadLad1862d ago

Did you purposely miss the entire point of my post?

Inverno1863d 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

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

Magatsuhi1863d ago

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

Binarycode1863d ago

2 is the better game.

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

Omar3li1863d ago

60fps is peasant for FPS games now
