I love clan matches online. Playing with a group of guys who work together. Public matches are frustrating because you play with a bunch of noobs who treat warzone like guerilla warfare or COD.

Lindsey5522d ago

I think it's fun playing both ways. Clans are fun for when you want to work as a team, but if you just want to have fun and talk with random people on the headset then that can be fun to.

mightyles5523d ago

I only played a few games and found the online mostly enjoyable. Lots of glitches and crashing stopped me from putting in more time with it.

BK-2015522d ago

glitches and crashing? I smell BS, I never had problems with either.

Pixel_Enemy5522d ago

The glitch he is referring to is how it won't play in his 360

news4geeks5522d ago

The glitches were him getting owned and the crashing was him rage quitting.

BK-2015522d ago

@kingdom, that was before the patches and its sad that you must spend all your time looking for this kind of stuff.

Kingdom Come5522d ago

It's sad I spent 1 minute looking for a video on YouTube? I didn't record the video. Get your facts right before making accusations...

mightyles5522d ago

Every game I played ended with a perpetual black screen, which forced me to reset my console. If that isnt a glitch what is it?

How odd - I've had ZERO 'glitching' and 'crashing', either online or off.

Istanbull5522d ago

lets put an Ignore on your face

CanadianTurtle5523d ago

Watch, if this game was a multiplat, then it would've got like a 5.

mightyles5522d ago

No way, not with as shit a story as it had.

Krimson-Rage5522d ago

CRYSIS 2 seems to be managing just fine with is dull story, repetetive gameplay and awful voice acting, so why is KZ3 getting picked on?

Pixel_Enemy5522d ago (Edited 5522d ago )

cool story bro

El-Fenemeno12135522d ago

@Krimson-Rage I laughed cause this is so true. Crysis 2 turned out to be a waste of my money -_-, glad i only paid 25. Waiting on custom games patch for KZ3 8-)

DelbertGrady5522d ago (Edited 5522d ago )

It's not the game it's the media :(

Master of Unlocking5522d ago (Edited 5522d ago )

@mightyles
Of course it would. The Gears of war games have much, much, much crappier stories & dialogs and they somehow still manage to get perfect scores.

Kingdom Come5522d ago

@ Krimson-Rage
Repetetive Gameplay? At least it's original.
Terrible Voice Acting? Are you deaf?
What are you going to criticise next? The incredible music?: http://www.youtube.com/watc...

Word of the wise, play a game before passing judgement.

Krimson-Rage5522d ago

@Kingdom Come
The Lockheart character... yeah, AWFUL acting and a clichéd "hard ass" military type that offended the KZ2 critics so much.
The old geezer who owns the suit (forget the name) AWFUL.
Gould... Not AS awful, but pretty bad.

Lets see, yesterday I destroyed three node things for whatever reason I can't fathom, ran into a tidal wave and escorted a group of marines somehwere to be picked up by something, we got attacked by waves of "squids" and I shot down a gunship. Tropies I got in the process: "Into the Abyss", "once a Marine, Always a Marine" and "Band of Brothers"

SO DON'T YOU DAMN WELL TELL ME TO "PLAY THE GAME FIRST" when I'm struggling to do just that but am so damn bored by it that it's a chore. Depsite what the Crytek groupies would have us brainwashed into believing, CRYSIS 2 is overated, generic and at times borderline ugly.

And "At least it's original"??... Is that an admission it IS repetetive? Anyway, how the hell can FPS gameplay be 'original' when the "unoriginal" argument is precisely the stick used to beat KILLZONE with.

And it's funny that you post a link for the music as proof the game is 'great' when that's the one thing I didn't complain about (actually the music isn't bad, but it WAS still generic) Right, you put my argument to bed with vigour!!!

"Word to the wise", estabish facts before trying to undermine an argument with that tired failed "you MUSTN'T have played the game" rot and just accept that the sun DOESN'T shine out of Crysis 2's arse and it might actually be YOU who's holding up the game as something it's not.

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.

FinalFantasyFanatic539d 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.

Storm23539d 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.

lockedongamer1539d ago (Edited 539d 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!

Chocoburger529d 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.

1Victor1105d ago

Can’t wait for their next franchise

SullysCigar1105d ago

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

jznrpg1104d ago

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

badz1491104d 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!

Vengeance11381105d 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 Kim1105d ago

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

VersusDMC1105d 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?

Vengeance11381105d ago

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

solideagle1105d 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.

Phoenix761105d 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

REDGUM1104d ago

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

thesoftware7301105d ago (Edited 1105d 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.

blacktiger1104d ago

thank you fps lover, I'm with you

talocaca1105d ago

Such a wonderful studio. They deserve all their success.

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

OzzY-waZZy1105d ago (Edited 1105d ago )

Kinda wish they move on from Horizon tbh.

lukasmain1105d ago

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

Imalwaysright1105d 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

MadLad1856d 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.

Applejack1856d 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_B1856d ago

Even emulators are super simple to use.

jukins1856d 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.

1856d ago
Vegamyster1856d 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.

SinkingSage1855d ago

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

Rachel_Alucard1855d ago (Edited 1855d 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.

AzubuFrost1856d ago

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

Shane Kim1856d ago

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

MadLad1855d ago

Did you purposely miss the entire point of my post?

Inverno1856d 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.

Magatsuhi1855d ago

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

Binarycode1855d ago

2 is the better game.

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

Omar3li1855d ago

60fps is peasant for FPS games now
