G4TV: Killzone 3 Multiplayer All Access Preview

Morgan Webb gets the scoop from Martin Connor on Killzone 3's new and improved multiplayer, featuring more abilities and weapons, 2 new modes, and an updated matchmaking system.

ArchangelMike5713d ago (Edited 5713d ago )

My Most anticipated game of 2011 by far. Seems they are taking a leaf out of Naughty Dog's book when it comes to multiplaye cut-scenes. Killzone 3 has got all the right ingredients to be an awesome offering. Hopefully there'll be less media bias than there was against Killzone 2!!!

Hoje03085713d ago

I hope so too, but I could really care less. Not only am I buying this game regardless of review scores, I will play the absolute shit out of it. My social life will end the day I get my hands on GT5 and will suffer even more as soon as KZ3 penetrates my hot, moist PS3 with its....oh shit, sorry.

...I'm gonna go play some more KZ2.

CrAnKiTuP_015713d ago

LOL!!! Thank you for the laugh!! xD
I really needed that. Phew :)

SaberEdge5713d ago

Killzone 3 is going to be a beast. From the graphics to the gameplay it all looks top-notch. It also seems like they have improved the narrative and the controls. It's easily one of my most anticipated games of 2011.

JUDALATION5713d ago

Since the producers of uncharted are helping gurilla studios with some of their graphics it is no suprise that Killzone is emulating Uncharted. I think Uncharted 2 has the most underrated multiplayer shooter of all time...even better than Killzone 2 in many ways. But gaming will be putm on a whole new level with Killzone 3 this fall and I cant wait!!!

swinesucker5713d ago

Dude, Uncharted 2 is not even close to Killzone multi. Nice try. It's frickin' 5 on 5 running in circles with little to no strategy. I made it to 56 and quit because it literally bored me to death.

Checkmate5713d ago

"literally bored me to death"

but...youre still alive...?!

SaberEdge5713d ago

I agree with you that Uncharted 2 has some of the most underrated multiplayer of all time without a doubt. It has me hooked like few multiplayer games ever have.
If swinesucker thinks there is no strategy he either hasn't played it or just sucked at the game and gave up.
Killzone 2 has a great multiplayer too, but I agree with you that Uncharted 2 deserves more credit in that area.

frankymv5713d ago (Edited 5713d ago )

my most anticipated title this generation.

Hoje03085713d ago

I gave you a bubble since two douchers decided to disagree with your opinion. You know, because they know what games you like better than you do.

ScoobyDrew5713d ago

i don't see how someone can disagree with this... the game is beautiful

jazzking20015713d ago

awesome
whats the date again?
early 2011 i hope

Hoje03085713d ago

A lot of PS3 owners skipping school and calling in sick that day. I just hope it's not too cold that night. A midnight launch in the dead of winter here in MN could be very, very bad.

TooTall195713d ago (Edited 5713d ago )

It was snowing in MN during the kz2 launch lol. I still made it to the store for the midnight launch.

rockleex5713d ago

Hope they rip the Saints apart later on today.

Hoje03085713d ago

I don't remember it being that bad though. Well, except waking up for work after about 2 hours of sleep. That wasn't very smart.

Charazani5713d ago

Did that interview just confirm that there will no longer be a server list system implemented in Killzone 3?

I'm not sure how I feel about that. I don't see any reason for there not to be both match-matching, and servers.

ajeben8095713d ago

I think what he said was they have removed "the need" for server lists, so in other words they have improved matchmaking a lot but the lists are still there if you want to do it that way. I think that's what he meant...I hope that's what he meant.

videogamescliche5713d ago

how come developers wont make a console game for hardcore gamers only a shooter without auto aim/aim assist what so ever and twitch shooter.

SpLinT5713d ago

because it will only sell like 10,000 because there arent many hardcore. only scrubba dub auto-aim call of duty type people .

mrcash5713d ago

it'll sell just fine but I doubt the online will be played much.

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.

FinalFantasyFanatic521d 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.

Storm23521d 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.

lockedongamer1521d ago (Edited 521d 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!

Chocoburger512d 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.

1Victor1087d ago

Can’t wait for their next franchise

SullysCigar1087d ago

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

jznrpg1087d ago

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

badz1491087d 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!

Vengeance11381087d 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 Kim1087d ago

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

VersusDMC1087d 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?

Vengeance11381087d ago

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

solideagle1087d 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.

Phoenix761087d 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

REDGUM1087d ago

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

thesoftware7301087d ago (Edited 1087d 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.

blacktiger1087d ago

thank you fps lover, I'm with you

talocaca1087d ago

Such a wonderful studio. They deserve all their success.

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

OzzY-waZZy1087d ago (Edited 1087d ago )

Kinda wish they move on from Horizon tbh.

lukasmain1087d ago

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

Imalwaysright1087d 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

MadLad1838d 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.

Applejack1838d 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_B1838d ago

Even emulators are super simple to use.

jukins1838d 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.

1838d ago
Vegamyster1838d 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.

SinkingSage1838d ago

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

Rachel_Alucard1838d ago (Edited 1838d 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.

AzubuFrost1838d ago

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

Shane Kim1838d ago

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

MadLad1837d ago

Did you purposely miss the entire point of my post?

Inverno1838d 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

RevXM1838d ago

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

Magatsuhi1838d ago

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

Binarycode1838d ago

2 is the better game.

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

Omar3li1838d ago

60fps is peasant for FPS games now
