Sony running the multi-player beta and then dropping the demo right before the launch of the game killed the hype. It doesn't matter, it should still sell really well and far better than KZ 2 did.
Sony should really man up and let EA and Crytek run the Crysis 2 multi-player beta now. People are either buying KZ3 or they are not buying KZ3 at this point. No reason to alienate one of your bigger supporters out there in EA IF EA isn't upset already...I here ...

It's been like this since this gen began and like usual, it starts at the top.
Sony is to blame for creating what has to be some of the most ignorant fanboys gaming has ever seen. Supercomputer this, CGI trailers and massive amount of cut scenes have these guys believing anything...lol.
I have ALL the consoles and the PS3 guys are just delusional...plain and simple. Average and below average game games that they believe are the best, not on...

Blockbuster filed for bankruptcy protection last year and has been closing stores ever since. Blockbuster today, blu-ray tomorrow.
It's just getting easier and easier to stream what you want. Everybody has a favorite movie but how many times can you watch it. With the exception of multi-player and then even so, is there any reason to keep a hard copy of a game or movie anymore???
On demand, while rather a crude way of saying it, is the way of the ...

Kinect destroyed Sony, Move wii HD, GT, heck, all of Sony's games last year ( what games???)...no biggie. It's just a camera...remember.
@Godarse...lol...the pain must be tremendous. Why not buy all the consoles...you and biggest up there in the nose bleeds would feel better about yourselves. People don't play marketing...O_o...And last time I checked, XBL ( over 1.2 BILLION dollars generated before E3 last year ) top ten didn't have any Kinect ga...

If Commander Shepard had a thong, was wearing bear heads on his hands and fought 300 ft monsters...then it would of sold great.
@dual...As for the Halo 3 comparison...lol...it's well over 12 million. Halo Reach has sold 8+ million. If you want to compare sales don't forget dlc...Halo wipes the floor with the car sim...especially this gen. GT would have to be played on line for the next ten years, while Halo sat idle to catch up. Halo is a far, FAR more pr...

Digital foundry looked at the 360 beta and discovered the same thing...medium to high settings across the board. Just look at the detail in this map...the crushed docks and boats. The great lighting/shadows/water and abundance of " stuff " laying around...lol

Well, when your selling your regularly priced PS3 unit for $299.99 and this week, it's $299.99 WITH a $59.99 new release in KZ3 included...yep...massive drop inbound. ALL the systems will be dropped in the next couple of months leading up to E3. Of course M$ will want to hold out for the Fall as they are obsessed with the holiday season. Kinect and it's games really need a big drop to maintain momentum.
.
I would rather they update the entire game with a modern game engine and not just some jump in rez that tends to make the game look worse than the original in glorious 480i...lol
As for what remake I would like...Criterions FPS masterpiece 2005 cult hit BLACK with multi-player would be number 1...

Activision is only ONE player in the video game industry...saying they have the power in make or break the industry is silly and ignorant...lol
Activision actually has alot to do with the massive amount of investment the industry is seeing right now. COd showed everyone from the novice to the biggest dev and pub that if you build it, they will come...and your seeing a huge increase in gaming because if it.
EA releases games, the SAME games, every year...

First, let me just say that I like the Killzone franchise and bought a PS3 just for Killzone 2. I also bought KZ 1, day one and still think that KZ 1, game play wise, offers more than what the series has become...now let me Rage on this a bit...
I've played both the multi-player beta and the sp ( spent HOURS ) demo, watched a bunch of video's and listen and read alot of what Herman as well as others have had to say...this game is NOT a 7 out of 10 game......

...not as disturbing as that pic of Cliffy B...lol...Damn Cliff...that 'stash, hair, jacket, earrings, necklace...O_o

Usually, when I go into cover, in any game, it would be nice not to get shot while in cover. I'm NOT a fan of the cover system in KZ 3 and actually spent more time trying to flank the enemies as hiding in cover causes the AI in KZ 3 to hide behind cover and never move except for the typical head pop up...dismal AI in that game and yes, played ALL difficulty levels.
MOH: Airborne had a similar fps cover system but theirs worked...Not the best quality vid but y...

This is why fanboys are so necessary. The PS3 guys keep complaining about how M$ has giving up so now M$ has to respond...lol...Same thing happen with Sony...everybody laughed at them for all their silly kids game and now they are trying to be hardcore...lol.
Sucker Punch went from sly cooper last gen to Infamous this gen...
Naughty Dog went from Jak/daxter and Crash Bandicoot to Uncharted...
Insomniac went from Ratchet/clank...
.
I think it's created an unwinnable situation for the game and dev. It was CGI and the game will not look like that when it releases. L4D 1 had a fantastic trailer as well...L4D 1 didn't look anything like it...lol...Still, L4D wasn't about story or graphics which this game seems to be about.
Trailers are SUPPOSE to create a buzz about the game...bingo...this has definitely has created a buzz. The little girl dying should/could of been avoided. What happe...

When a game has been in development a long time, the industry passes them by. Graphics have been increased exponentially and after an amazing trailer for this game at E3, it kinda looks last gen, especially with the buggy eyes. I think they should delay this till 2012 and work on some post processing effects to clear up some of those things. The engine looks like a modified Unreal 2 type of deal.
.
I hope this means that M$ will FINALLY agree to move onto a new console. It seems Sony lost so much money on the ps3 that they want to keep selling it for another 5 years to try to get some of the losses off the books....M$ doesn't have that problem as they have made money on 360 since year 2...RROD aside that is. Sony only started to make money on the slim model and not much at that...$15-17...O_o...big mistake if M$ doesn't come out first. If they are first, Gears and Hal...

This is where ALL Internet connected companies are going. Once you sign in they own you and all your information. Don't worry, they will only share it with their friends...you know like the communists, various secret service agencies...etc. Didn't you see how the Russians invested heavily in Facebook not to long ago...wonder why. Ever wonder why Asia, especially China refuse to grant Goggle free reign.

I can't wait to see what they have planned. They said that Gears 2 was going to be the last Gears game on the current systems and that they had a working prototype of what gears would look like on the next systems...then of course M$ backed a brinks truck up to their studio and the rest is history.
I think when everyone gets to see how games could " potentially " look like in the very near future, they will not only ask but demand newer systems. Leave ...

Listen, I like KZ the franchise...it has all the potential in the world, but, this game is no technical marvel in any way. Maybe getting the game to run on a PS3 at all is a technical marvel but nothing more.
Is 720p-30fps some sort of benchmark??? All those special effects ( smoke, particle...etc ) rendered at 640x360...is that state of the art...O_o
I'll admit...32 gb's of cut scenes is impressive but you don't play cut scenes and...
.
Impressive!!! No problems at all??? Obviously all the " other " websites are Sony haters and that's why they noticed all those little problems like stuttering frame rates, low res ( 640x360 ) explosions, smoke and particle effects. No problem with the 70+ minutes ( 32 gbs ) of cut scenes??? AI was ingenious huh...hmmm...no problem with all the hand holding in the game play? Did you notice the AI can fly everywhere with the jet pac but you can't...nit picking righ...
