"Well we'll see come Feb NPD
If it doesnt sell well, Sony is in real trouble especially when they themselves said its platform mover "
I don't think that Killzone 2's impact will really be seen until March, and Amercia's NPD isn't the only country that means anything when it comes to sales because I'm just as interested in seeing how those Killzone 2 Bundles in Europe will do.
But, either way, I won't be worrying myself over sales figures.
"Has anyone seen a KZ2 ad on television?"
Yep, I've seen the Killzone 2 commercial (I live in NC). I saw it last night on Comedy Central. I haven't seen it as many times as rhood022, but I've seen it a few times.
Considering the amount of times that rhood022 has seen it, Sony is definantly getting the Killzone name out.
I think that KZ2 will definantly sell some PS3's, maybe not a TON of PS3's, but after it comes out, I think it will help PS3 sales stay around 250K or higher in the U.S. until a price drop.
Even on the Official Killzone forums the other day, there was one guy that was a 360 owner and said that he will be buying a PS3 for Killzone 2, and there's been several other 360 fans on this site that have done the same.
Even though I'm a huge God of War fan, I'm not really sure ab...
I think Killzone 2 will be somewhat of a system seller, but I would feel more confident about it being a system seller for sure if the PS3 was $299. Either way, I think that Killzone 2 is the game that will finally make people that have been on the fence for a PS3 to finally get one.
Even at $499 last year in June, the Metal Gear Solid 4 bundles were flying off shelves, and to me Killzone 2 has that same potential. I know that Metal Gear is a larger franchise, but pretty much eve...
Right now I'm a little skeptical about MAG coming out in 2009 because there's nothing been shown and pretty much nothing said about the game since E3 last year. I remember back at E3 2008, one of the lead devs. said that they had MAG for a 2009 release, and if he said that about the game when they had just a CGI teaser trailer at E3, maybe it will come out this year after all.
Since the God of War games have traditionally come out in March, that's making me think that GOW3 wont b...
Well, this is what I think. Why would Capcom port the first Lost Planet to the PS3 if they had no intention of bringing the second game to the PS3?. If Dead Rising is now multiplatform, I see absolutely no reason why Lost Planet 2 will be exclusive.
The Xbox 360 version may be getting Exclusive DLC, maybe the demo will be released first on XBL, or maybe it will be a timed exclusive, whatever the case may be, I'm pretty sure Lost Planet 2 will be multiplatform, and in addition to ...
This is what Team Ninja had to say:
"For any developer that's been working on all of the platforms that are available today, I think they would agree that the PlayStation 3 is the most powerful system out there, said Hayashi"
http://ps3.psu.com/Team-Nin...
And that guy said that he thinks the PS3 and 360 are "fairly equal"....
I took part in the first Live Chat last week and I totally agree with Blademask, because a whole bunch of stuff I already knew was talked about, and there weren't that many questions answered by Seb. Downie considering the chat went on for 1 hour, but it was pretty cool to interact with the developers nonetheless.
Since Jan-Bart Van Beek (Art Director) and Geert Donker (Don't know his role on Killzone 2) are going to be in this chat, I'm guessing that there will definantly be thi...
"That's like taking a condom off before you finish. Hydro1x, your dad feels the same shame..."
LMAO!!!! Bubbles for the laugh!
On a more serious note, it would be silly for Sony to axe HOME when they've already poured so much money into it.
And plus, Sony's got TONS of 3rd party support for HOME. That new "Sports Complex" space that EA showed off a little while back that's coming soon actually looked like fun.
HOME is FRE...
LOL, from the little that has been shown of Alan Wake everything has been from the PC version. No one even knows how good the 360 version will even look.
Heavy Rain's screenshots look just as good as the Alan Wake PC screenshots. It's more like "PS3's Cell Processor Power Challenges PC version of Alan Wake."
Until Remedy actually attends a Game Convention and shows off the 360 version of Alan Wake or until they reveal more info for the 360 version, not much...
Bah, on Metacritic Killzone 2 has 9 Perfect Scores, 42 scores that are between 9.0 and 9.9, and just 6 review scores under a 9 (including this review).
I don't care if this site gave it a 1/10, all I've got to say is bring on Killzone 2 and bring on Feb. 27th. The game has already shut-up the doubters and has Killzowned the people that said that Guerrilla couldn't make a AAA game because the first Killzone was medicore.
Just a few more days to go and it'll finally b...
Sony revealed this Commercial this past Thursday or Friday on the Official Playstation Blog(North American commercial)
The European Killzone 2 commercial has already been posted as well.
Nah, I don't really think that Guerrilla Games should be in the Top 5 yet. Don't get me wrong, they've done a good job with Killzone 2, but the other developers listed have MUCH longer history with Sony and have a very good track record over a long period of time.
I also agree in the order these studios were listed. Even though Team ICO has only developed 2 games, they have delivered some of the most memorable and groundbreaking games in the entire gaming industry, and I own both...
I had never seen Catastrophe before, but she's dangerously BEAUTIFUL ;)
If Insomniac and Naughty Dog are helping Sony Santa Monica, then I can possibly see God of War 3 making it out before the end of 2009.
I wasn't really surprised to hear about the "1080P" because there was rumors about GOW3 being 1080p for a little while, and Wardevil is another PS3 game that reminds me of GOW3 that's supposedly going to be in 1080P as well.
It's really nice to see so many Sony devs. working together on projects/sharing technology and such. ...
"Killzone 2's been hyped waaaay too much, of course. And, no, it doesn't live up to the hype, because if it did it would be the greatest FPS of all time, which it isn't." .....my thoughts exactly"
Please go troll somewhere else dude. It sounds more like you're upset that Killzone 2 has been getting received so positively.
And I TOTALLY disagree when Virgin Media said that if Killzone 2 lived up to the hype, it would be the best FPS game of all time. ...
"1. Can KZ2 be done on the 360? Explain"
It's hard to say whether or not Killzone 2 can or can't be done on the 360 right now, but I have some doubts that the Xbox 360 could run Killzone 2 EXACTLY how it's built on the PS3 with ONE disc.
Sure, Killzone 2 could be done on the 360 by making some changes and possibly downgrading the game (less enemies on screen, etc...) and putting it on Multiple discs, but I'm talking about KZ2 being on ONE disc and being bui...
I'm playing the Campaign first, that's what I always do. The Campaign will give you plenty of time to get used to using various weapons, so when you step in Multiplayer, you'll be ready to dish out some damage for sure.
For Killzone 2, I'm just as interested in the Story as the Multi-player.
With Killzone 3, I think that Guerrilla will implement some of the things that they had planned for Killzone 2, but had to take out because of time constraints.
I remember in a interview I read a little while back, a Developer at GG said that one of the things they had planned for Killzone 2 was Vehicles in Multiplayer and More Vehicle based missions in Single Player (such as a longer Tank Battle), but it was taken out for the sake of time.
Guerrilla could possibly i...
I think that Uncharted 2 and Heavy Rain WILL be out by the end of 2009. David Cage said back at Leipzig that they were definantly aiming for a Late 2009 release. Of course that can change, but for now as it stands, Heavy Rain is definantly a 2009 title until otherwise confirmed.
As far as Uncharted 2 goes, I think that 2 years of development is a pretty reasonable time frame for Naughty Dog to complete it. They already have the Uncharted 2 game engine, so development should be qu...
