MyInsideGamer Preview | Killzone 3

Three levels. Three levels of absolute shooting chaos. They weren’t short levels, quite the contrary, but I only found that out after watching another guy play these three levels. My time with these three levels went too fast, and I remember feeling scandalised that I had barely smirched the controller before needing to pass it on to the next person. Then he played the same three levels as me, as that was all we could play. It was only a demo, but I still was hungry for more.

Guess this will be one of the best shooters of 2011.

jinofthesheep5685d ago

should be without a doubt but the market is going to be busy with a lot of tripple A FPSs coming out. still, killzone is the PS3's flagship shooter now so should do well!

simplesteve5685d ago

naaah it'll lead the way by far on the ps3 as owners of em are waitin for this an if there were a choice id take KZ3 over anyting else

5685d ago
vflhp5685d ago

I'd like to think so, KZ2 was amazing but this really looks like it's gonna top it!

simplesteve5685d ago

blatantly!! looks immense but hands in is wicked!!! 3D makes it all the better an all

vflhp5685d ago

Gah, count yourself lucky for having a 3DTV. :P

HeavenlySnipes5685d ago

did you guys get disagrees? There is nothing to disagree on? Steve said the game looks wicked in 3d and vflhp told him he was lucky for seeing it in 3d. Is the diagree monster trolling this place.

MidnytRain5685d ago

@HeavenlySnipes No, no, no it's the Disagree Fairy. Much more whimsical and free-spirited.

stannersprice5685d ago

looks no different to killzone 2 though guys! only slight weapon changes and a AI modification. that's not enough!!

gijsbrecht5685d ago

All you could have seen are 3 small portions of one sp level and some MP gameplay. None of these were finished and certainly nothing was revealed about new stuff. Please wait with this sort of comments when the game is actually there to play.

HeavenlySnipes5685d ago

Fit that exact description but were both great games. Killzone 3 fixes ad adds many things that players wanted. Fixed input lag (now even n00bs can play), more weapons, more perks for each class (your welcome Halo Reach for having classes now), there are now mechs and jetpacks in the game (jetpacks were USEABLE in Killzone Liberation on psp, Mechs from KZ2), more environments that vary; from jungles to the arctic and new gamemodes and revamped party up system (thanks Halo : D) and clan support. So yeah I guess you lose...

Bathyj5684d ago

Considering Killzone 2 already had the best graphics, weapons feel, and AI, STILL, 2 years down the track, then any improvement over that makes for a great game dont you think?

Takoulya5685d ago

I played it in the Playstation Canada Event yesterday. For those who worry about it being too much like CoD, I say that you shouldn't at all. This game is Killzone to the core. The only changes it has made are improvements. Be sure to get this game, guys!

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!

Chocoburger511d 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?!

jznrpg1086d ago

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

badz1491086d 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

REDGUM1086d 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.

blacktiger1086d 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.

lukasmain1086d ago

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

Imalwaysright1086d 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
Vegamyster1837d 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.

SinkingSage1837d ago

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

Rachel_Alucard1837d ago (Edited 1837d 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 Kim1837d 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?

Inverno1837d 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.

Magatsuhi1837d ago

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

Binarycode1837d ago

2 is the better game.

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

Omar3li1837d ago

60fps is peasant for FPS games now
