Killzone 3 "Every new level has its own distinct feel."

Killzone 3 (in 3D!) announced today: “We had plenty of variety in Killzone 2 but much of it was introduced in the second half of the game. This time around, right from the start every new level has its own distinct feel.”

alphakennybody5112d ago

And here I thought the wait for GT5 is almost over now with this game announced... I'm going crazy! I need a little teaser or gameplay footage now! definitely my primo most anticipated game for 2k11 just like how Killzone 2 was for 2k9

PshycoNinja5111d ago

I'm glad that te game will have diverse enviorments. Makes me that much more excited about Killzone 3. GOTY 2011?

BTW can you guys take this poll: http://poll.pollcode.com/o2...

I have already posted this up on killzone.com. I just want to see what the community wants in the Collectors edition. Who knows, GG and Sony might look into these things and send out a survay of their own or look at our poll and see what the community wants and put that into the collectorsedition.

As a 360 owner i think this is the first Playstation game to me that actually sounds like its good!

Serjikal_Strike5112d ago

there are many good games on playstation...in fact too many to name

ingiomar5112d ago (Edited 5112d ago )

this is MY opinion... and i know YOU THINK there are many good games.
but to me this is the only game(i also liked killzone 2 btw) i think is worth buying a ps3 for...which im not gonna do cuz that would be just a waste of money (buying a ps3 for one game that is).
the 360 has more games that i think are good.

DigitalRaptor5111d ago

so Killzone 3 is the only PS3 game you think sounds good, yet you liked Killzone 2. That's sort of conflicting is it not?

Raf1k15110d ago

He did say he's a 360 owner so you can't blame him for only being interested in an FPS game.

halojunkie5112d ago

wow, you must not be one of those people who enjoy things called game of the years. like what? 3 years in a row? yea....uncharted 2, littlebigplanet, metalgearsolid4. most likely the 4th bieng heavy rain or lbp2. or gow3.

Spydiggity5110d ago (Edited 5110d ago )

you do know that every website, magazine, etc has their own game of the year. so i'm sure some of those games got goty on some sites, and on others didn't. i know for a fact that batman beat out UC2 on several major sites.

and i can guarantee you that no major site will give heavy rain goty, while an interesting way to tell a story, it can hardly be classified as a game. really is getting old listening to games get unwarranted praise. i'm quite sure we'll see gow 3 nominated, but i'd be surprised if heavy rain gets more than an "honorable mention."

bye bubbles, not even facts and common sense can save you. :'(

goty nominees will be gow 3, rdr, halo reach, cod , MAYBE Alan Wake (though i doubt it with the sales it earned so far), and some so-far unreleased stuff. if lbp 2 comes out this year and turns out as good as it looks, it'll probably be nominated too.

EDIT: @ingiomar: you do know that you aren't allowed to express an opinion that isn't totally pro ps3 here on n4g, right? it's like written in the terms of use or something. i mean, you can do it, but you'll be WRONG and likely be reported for spam and eventually lose all your bubbles.

ThatCanadianGuy5110d ago

"bye bubbles, not even facts and common sense can save you. :'("

You need to have facts and common sense worth saving to begin with..
Obviously various websites will have different votes for their GOTY.
Durr hurr hurr!

The only official GOTY awards are given out by The AIAS (Interactive Video Game Awards)

For the last two years, PS3 has had the Official Games of the Yesr.Uncharted 2 & LBP

Anon73495110d ago

Demon's Souls got 2 GOTY awards in 2009.

Only crappy places gave batman GOTY like "Reviews on the Run." They gave the game GOTY because it was the first good batman game, in no way does that warrant a GOTY.

I do agree that Heavy Rain won't get any GOTY awards.

I can tell you don't know about a lot of games, in no way does COD Black Oops deserve GOTY, nor does Halo although Halo: Reach will probably get one because it's fanbase will argue that jet packs and sprinting are the most ground breaking sht ever.

Games that have a chance with GOTY are games like (Remember anything that gets released now hardly stands a chance because everyone will forget about these games and they'll be too hyped up about the game that came out recently, this is also why DAO and UC2 got GOTY awards)

GT5
Crysis 2 (PC)
GoW3
The Last Guardian
Alan Wake
Portal 2
Super Mario Galaxy 2
LBP 2
Halo: Reach (Whether it deserves it or not)
RDR
FF13v
FF14
Socom 4
Killzone 3
Infamous 2

Spydiggity5110d ago (Edited 5110d ago )

did i in any part of my statement say i felt that any of those games DESERVED goty? i don't think so.

i was speculating based on past nominations. and they are all pretty safe bets except for alan wake. i'd be surprised if it gets on there even though i enjoy it immensely.

@canadian guy: goty is an opinion. and the value of the opinion is given by the individual that feels that opinion came from someone with credibility. personally, i go by MY opinion on what is goty, not anybody else's. no yours, not GT's, not gamespot's, or aias, or anyone. my point was to say just that...goty is an opinion and everyone has one. the fact that one group chooses to award it to one game doesn't mean that game necessarily deserved it. what are they basing the decision on? graphics? story? fun? bias? who knows...

@the 8 ppl who gave me disagrees: i know it can't be for my edit...that was spot on. ;) I'm sure it was cuz i said heavy rain won't be goty...even though you all know that's true. i'll refer you again to the edit.

@anon: it's pretty easy to take a guess at what will be nominated when you name 15 games, lol. i agree with you about batman, hell i couldn't stand that game. just pointing out that some sites seemed to prefer it to UC2. I thought Assassin's Creed 2 deserved it last year. it's my personal choice for 2009 goty. OH, and i agree 100% about COD, i never liked any COD since the very first one. but i 90% disagree about halo reach. the beta was a blast, and i love how ppl say it's just halo with jetpacks and that's a bad thing, but then brag up jet packs in KZ3. how hypocritical can it get?

EDIT: I definitely completely forgot to mention StarCraft 2. in fact, now that i've thought about it, i think that's probably the biggest contender for goty.

ThatCanadianGuy5110d ago

Yes, GOTY is an opinion.If you're talking about YOUR personal opinion.Halojunkie was talking about the fact that PS3 had the last two official GOTY's in a row.And no, it's not one persons opinion when it's from the AIAS.It's dozens & dozens of industry pro's from every major outlet coming together and deeming a game "GOTY"

You going on about how batman beating UC2 on some website makes GOTY's meaningless is just ridiculous.

Just saying.

The game looks good, but that's about it. Same as this one, people are going to play it for a week or two, then take it back to Gamestop.

At least it will be one of many "True exclusives" coming to the ps3.

define "good"..?

dont bother its clear from "As a 360 owner"...

peace

Odin7775110d ago

Demon's Souls doesn't sound good to you? Kids these days!

thief5110d ago (Edited 5110d ago )

Which games did you like on the 360? If you like the looks of Killzone, I can guess you enjoyed playing Gears - in which case you should try out Uncharted 2, not because its so highly regarded but because its gameplay is close to Gears/Killzone in some aspects.

whats up with people hate on the KILLZON3 news
or articles .

lame is you reporting a article or news as lame .

is like if i repor a news review as lame from gamepro
because they already approve the review from ign

on topic KILLZON3 will be epic.

Spydiggity5110d ago

how sick i am of all this bs hype. i don't wanna hear another thing about this game or gears of war 3 til next year. we don't need to have 18 months of hype where little tidbits are leaked here n there.

give it to us all at once about 3 months before release. man this is getting old.

all that ever happens is the hype builds up so much that the game can never live up to it.

look at KZ2, alan wake, halo 3, gow 3, ff 13, heavy rain etc... all good games, none of which could come close to the hype.

then look at Red Dead Redemption, hype didn't build til just a few weeks before and it'll probably end up getting goty. expectations are the biggest influence in the quality of a game, just tell us it's coming, then shut up about it. that's the winning formula

Anon73495110d ago

I don't see how GoW3 didn't live up to it's hype.

FF13 was consider trash in japan months before it released worldwide, and no one expected it to be above subpar or bad besides FFfangirls

Most people had low expectations for Heavy Rain until the demo

Red Dead Redemption had LOTS of hype and it's nothing great, it's just a western GTA with some new additions to gameplay and a few improvements.

The other 3 did have tonnes of hype, but those games were inevitably going to be hyped anyways.

Up there with the top tier in the industry. Love Guerrilla Games - Horizon Burning Shores is simply STUNNING.

1Victor379d ago

Can’t wait for their next franchise

SullysCigar379d ago

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

jznrpg379d ago

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

badz149379d 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!

Vengeance1138379d 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 Kim379d ago

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

VersusDMC379d 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?

Vengeance1138379d ago

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

solideagle379d 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.

Phoenix76379d ago

@shane, 2 full main games, 2 DLC add ons, 1 VR spin off game, oh and a an official LEGO set.

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.

blacktiger379d ago

thank you fps lover, I'm with you

talocaca379d ago

Such a wonderful studio. They deserve all their success.

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

OzzY-waZZy379d ago (Edited 379d ago )

Kinda wish they move on from Horizon tbh.

potatoseal379d ago

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

Imalwaysright379d ago

There were rumours that they were working on a Socom reboot.

Still looks secure 2 gens later... one of my favorite ps3 moments. With 3D and move the game is on another level

MadLad1130d 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.

Applejack1130d 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_B1130d ago

Even emulators are super simple to use.

jukins1130d 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.

1130d ago
Vegamyster1130d 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.

SinkingSage1130d ago

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

Rachel_Alucard1130d ago (Edited 1130d 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.

MadLad1129d ago

Did you purposely miss the entire point of my post?

Inverno1130d 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

Top 10 PS3 Games We Hope Come Back On PS5

While Xbox has committed to backwards compatibility spanning four generations, PlayStation has continued their stance that the feature isn't important. Well, it is! I'm hoping these PlayStation 3 classics that skipped the PS4 entirely show up again on the PS5 for everyone to enjoy.

Knightofelemia1308d ago

Resistance, Dead Space franchise, Splatterhouse, Lollipop Chainsaw, Brutal Legends, Alice Madness Returns, Enslaved Journey to the West, Mass Effect franchise. Also wouldn't mind seeing a new Wild Arms game remake or HD remaster, the Xenosaga trilogy, a new Parasite Eve, a new Dino Crisis just too many games to list that are forgotten and left in the dark now adays.

Sciurus_vulgaris1308d ago

The PS3 is difficult to emulate. PS3 backwards compatibility on PS5 would require translation from PowerPC to x86. Additionally the PS5 likely would have to mimic the PS3’s GPU and CPU.

This is what pops up on my web browser. So I can't even read the site. So, forget that. They don't need my data.

But let's get something straight. OG Xbox had around 1,001 games. How many are BC on Series X? **39** THIRTY NINE. Come on! That's wack BC. You can't tell me that's a complete list. Talking about commitment. Game preservation. Ridiculous. Covers nothing.

How many games released on Xbox 360? Around 2085. How many are BC?
568. That's it. Around 1,517 are **MISSING** Stop playing. Tired of that nonsense.

Anyway, the only games I really want from PS3 that would be awesome are Motorstorm and MGS4. I'll take BC. I'll take a remaster. I'll take a remake. If not those, then Killzone 2. And in VR, maybe Sports Champions, House of the Dead Overkill and the Time Crisis games.

That's all I need. But we've gone over BC again and again in every possible way. It wasn't that important because Sony sold 115 million consoles without it. That's proof enough with no outcry. And PS5 has damn near all 4,000+ PS4 games BC. It's not PS1,PS2 and PS3. But that's plenty. I'll take more but you get what you get.
