What is this site I don't even...

mega BIG time5572d ago

you dont? An opinion is an opinion. Every person is entitled and deserving of one and they are all equally worthy.

DaTruth5572d ago

I'm of the opinion that they're not!

starchild5572d ago

Some things are a matter of opinion and some things are a matter of fact. Taste in games is subjective, but the fact that people are entitled to their own tastes and opinions is not a matter of opinion.

arika5572d ago (Edited 5572d ago )

i told you guys from my last post if its anything negative or a low score on killzone 3 the trolls will show up. as expected. lol!

vickers5005572d ago

They've been around for quite a while.

morganfell5572d ago (Edited 5572d ago )

So has cancer, the clap, and good looking women with attached fat friends.

vickers5005572d ago

They're not that bad. They were my primary gaming site along time ago until I found N4G. I think that was about 3-4 years ago.

My point is they aren't one of those "me too" websites that have been cropping up within the past 2 years.

But whatever, the fanboys on this site are too blind to accept that people have different opinions, and if a site doesn't give their favorite games a 9+, then that must mean they automatically suck. Damn fanboys such as yourself are annoying.

You also act like 8/10 is somehow a bad score. Gtfo you scum, you are the trash that is ruining the industry with your petty, immature fanboyism.

*hits you with a flyswatter* Go away

Warprincess1165572d ago

I want to buy this game. Operation is addicting but marvel vs capcom 3 comes out next week. Im definitely still gone to buy this game. I want to support GG and sony.

GamerSciz5572d ago

How does this story get bad reviews?
http://www.youtube.com/watc...

It looks pretty epic to me.

kramun5572d ago

That's just the trailer, it's not the full game. The reviewer actually played the full game.

GamerSciz5572d ago

I know that but I am saying based on that trailer, which is pretty epic, how can a bad story be derived from it. People said Killzone 2 story was just ok as well but I for one enjoyed it immensely seeing how it was a direct sequel to Killzone.

kramun5572d ago

KZ2's story was terrible as well though. I was hoping the story was going to be a lot more improved for this one. Apparently not.

callahan095572d ago

I agree with GamerSciz. What exactly is "bad" about the story? I've read a lot of reviews that said the story was great, but then a portion of the reviews say it's "bad" or "horrible" and even "miserable." But none of the bad reviews gave much of a meaningful explanation about what made the story so bad. I mean, looking at that trailer, I really want details, because that trailer shows what seems to be very nice cutscene direction (in terms of cinematography), interesting plot, and very good voice acting. When these reviewers say "bad" do they mean:

a) Uninteresting? Boring?
b) Unintentionally funny?
c) Unfeasible?
d) Confusing?
e) Doesn't have a good ending?

What the hell does it mean? Based on the trailer, it doesn't seem like it would be so uninteresting or boring, or unintentionally funny as to warrant the game's entire story being called so BAD that it actually detracts from the fun of the campaign. Is it unfeasible? Confusing? Poor ending? Is the story REALLY of such significance that even if it is some or all of those things it makes playing the campaign less fun? Tons of great, very fun single player games have stories that fit all of those categories (Modern Warfare 2 anyone?). I just think the whole "the story is horrible" criticism is lacking in explanation from everything I've seen, and I even doubt the validity of such claims to the effect that the story is so bad it makes the campaign not worth playing the way some of these reviews have suggested.

B1663r5572d ago

@callahan09

Read the article, they didn't like the characters because the characters were boring and uninteresting, and the story was bad because it didn't really tie in with the gameplay.

But otherwise, take it for what it is, a visually rich, FPS hallway shooter with space marines, and lots of hectic gameplay...

The trailers lose suspension of disbelief with me, because I am a skydiver in real life, and they are riding around on the outside of those lander thingies, and talking and stuff, and they are not being buffeted around by wind. I mean, a 80 to 100 mph wind... all you would be doing (even if you were a really mannly big buff space marine) is holding on against the wind, and there would be no talking (or yelling) going on in the face of the roaring wind.

All trailers look epic. That's the whole point of a trailer. I seen so many movies with epic trailers just to find myself regretting it in the end.

Here we go... again. M$ must have bought em like all the others.

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.

FinalFantasyFanatic534d 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.

Storm23534d 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.

lockedongamer1534d ago (Edited 534d 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!

Chocoburger525d 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.

1Victor1100d ago

Can’t wait for their next franchise

SullysCigar1100d ago

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

jznrpg1100d ago

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

badz1491100d 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!

Vengeance11381100d 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 Kim1100d ago

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

VersusDMC1100d 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?

Vengeance11381100d ago

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

solideagle1100d 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.

Phoenix761100d 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

REDGUM1100d ago

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

thesoftware7301100d ago (Edited 1100d 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.

blacktiger1100d ago

thank you fps lover, I'm with you

talocaca1100d ago

Such a wonderful studio. They deserve all their success.

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

OzzY-waZZy1100d ago (Edited 1100d ago )

Kinda wish they move on from Horizon tbh.

lukasmain1100d ago

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

Imalwaysright1100d 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

MadLad1851d 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.

Applejack1851d 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_B1851d ago

Even emulators are super simple to use.

jukins1851d 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.

1851d ago
Vegamyster1851d 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.

SinkingSage1851d ago

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

Rachel_Alucard1851d ago (Edited 1851d 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 Kim1851d ago

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

MadLad1850d ago

Did you purposely miss the entire point of my post?

Inverno1851d 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.

Magatsuhi1851d ago

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

Binarycode1851d ago

2 is the better game.

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

Omar3li1851d ago

60fps is peasant for FPS games now
