"Actual gameplay footage"

SCEE's marketing did the single thing they needed to do.

TheHater5955d ago

If this is real, then I like this ad a lot more than the US one. This ad really shows what Killzone 2 is all about with the chaos of battle. Oh and it did help to have "Actually IN-GAME" in it :)

BRACHATTACK5955d ago

Have they left it a little late?

PirateThom5955d ago

If these ads start on Monday, that's 5 days until Killzone 2 is actually released. I'm guessing they're going for saturation, where they'll show the ad a lot in a short space of time to maximise effect.

The ads will most likely continue for a while after.

sonarus5955d ago

this ad is better than US ad

TheTwelve5955d ago

They need to add the "Actual Gameplay Footage" for the NA commercial.

Ghoul5955d ago

Nineball21125955d ago

Man...

All of the bullet tracers... it's just wild! Can't wait to get this game and get my @ss handed to me online! :-)

gaffyh5955d ago

This advert is pretty much perfect great trailer, "Actual Gameplay Footage", Only On Playstation 3.

nizza5955d ago

This is already airing in the UK.

They aired it in the advert break for Skins on E4 last night.
The last series of Skins had over 60% of the 16 - 24 year old demographic.

Are Sony getting their act together with the marketing for this game or what!

jammy_705955d ago

if i didnt no about the game and saw that... i might thing bout buying it, and thats why the advert is a sucsess!

People were complaining about Sony not letting consumers know it was actual graphics in the teaser and if this is really the commercial for the UK..well, now they know. I like commercials that have the antagonist general rallying their men. Makes you get amped further to put them down.

yanikins1115955d ago

if there was a "defect" button id push it

DavidMacDougall5955d ago

Love the "In-game footage" at the bottom and also at the end "Only on PS3" :)

Parapraxis5955d ago

I'm pretty sure those details will be added in the final cut.

fallingdove5955d ago

I prefer the look of the NA ad, but I think SCEE got it right in noting 'in game footage' at the bottom of the screen.

I wish they would have emphasized the european slogan "Their Home, Your Hell" a bit more - maybe similarly to the NA ad that writes below the title "War Perfected"

All awesome stuff though. Bravo Sony.

MrJack5955d ago

that will grab the viewers attention, no stupid CGI here.

Why Guerrilla Games Shouldn't Abandon the Killzone Series

Hugely disappointingly, it seems that Guerrilla Games, developers of the Killzone and Horizon series, may be done with Killzone for good.

1 was fine, overhyped as a " halo" killer
2 was a graphical beast at the time, and felt heavy
3 was good a refinement of 2 but not much else. weird audio issues environment were to quiet
shadow fall was pretty but bland

OtterX231d ago (Edited 231d ago )

Shadowfall had great Multiplayer though. Too bad the campaign was meh at best. It did have the occasional great moment sprinkled in.

TheNamelessOne231d ago (Edited 231d ago )

I played through 2/3 multiple times. I played through the original once, but it felt pretty lukewarm for me. I couldn't be bothered to beat Shadow Fall. I got a couple hours in and just went "I'm done". Never touched it again. It was awesome on the tech side, being a launch title, but it didn't even match up to the first game when it came to actually having fun playing it.

Rude-ro231d ago

3 in 3d was an amazing experience to be had.
Although not many experienced it as intended for good reasons.

just_looken231d ago

You forgot the ai advancements on the playstation 2 killzone one you could have a full team of bots doing everything even playing the objective that was a big thing.

In killzone 2 they always flanked you and when available used the high ground.

Playing killzone 2 no hud 5.1 audio was/is awesome

MDTunkown231d ago

They should finish Horizon story first

darthv72231d ago

I dont mind if someone else takes up the mantle for the KZ franchise. We are several years removed from the first game. It certainly could use a remake to gauge interest in the rest of the series. I know it has its fans... Im thinking of how a proper reboot can rekindle that old dormant flame and bring in a new generation of fans in the process.

just_looken231d ago

You forgot killzone mercenaries on the ps vita but it was the worst selling sony game for awhile there.

Yui_Suzumiya231d ago

Yeah, a remake would be pretty awesome

anast231d ago

They should let it go or sell it. No use spending millions on this project.

LucasRuinedChildhood231d ago

Would like a new IP before Horizon 3. Just because games take so long to make these days.

PlayStation 3 Games That Desperately Need a PS5 Remaster

The PlayStation 3 may not have been the strongest generation for Sony, but there were still some diamonds in the rough that deserve a revisit as PS5 remasters.

OtterX460d ago (Edited 460d ago )

Even if they could just remaster and put on PSVR2, some would still look great as VR titles and could do a whole lot to bolster the headset w these exclusives! I'd imagine the investment of reworking these titles into VR would be way less than building new games from the ground up, and they could be amazing experiences, and VR often makes flat games feel fresh again. The Resistance and Killzone games are particularly what I want to see!!

Rude-ro460d ago

I played killzone 3 in 3d and it really changed the game per being immersive.
In vr, that would be even more awesome.

darthv72460d ago

Funny you mention that... my son wanted to play some PS3 games in 3d on my PS tv and he was blown away by how good KZ3 was. It really was a great addition to the game. Im surprised there have not been more 3d games from that era being ported to the PSVR/VR2.

_SilverHawk_460d ago

resistance 1-3, killzone 1-3, uncharted 1-3, uncharted golden abyss, folklore, socom 4 , motorstorm, twisted metal, MAG, heavenly sword

Cacabunga460d ago

Killzone 2+3
Sly Thieves in Time
Crack in Time
God of War Ascension
Motorstorm
Modnation racer
Infamous 1+2

Profchaos460d ago (Edited 460d ago )

Killzone trilogy in VR would be amazing bonus points if they offer shadow fall.

There was a psvr1 Killzone project that supermassive was working on at one stage which wasn't up to scratch and Sony brand it back in house I was hoping we would see that on psvr2 eventually.

Personally I'd love to see some more love or acknowledgement of psvr2 from Sony in general it was a expensive headset and Sony barely acknowledge it's existence

seanpitt23460d ago

The amount of work needed to remaster these games wouldn't be beneficial on a financial and business sense.. MGS4 would probably be the best bet as it would need the least amount of work!

Iceball2000460d ago

YEAAASSSSS! I miss this franchise and wanna play it so bad again.

Father__Merrin460d ago

The time is perfect for a resistance fall of man game campaign coop multiplayer

InUrFoxHole460d ago

The resistance series is str8 trash to me. Socom 3 I would welcome. Or killzone MP.

Marcus Fenix460d ago

A Resistance reboot will be awesome

Michiel1989460d ago

That's what Bungie should make, Ill keep saying it until it happens

1Victor460d ago (Edited 460d ago )

Resistance was ok but Warhawk and Starhawk was better and kept me coming back for almost a decade of fun and petty revenge on the loud mouth unskilled players 🤣
Edit I loved capture the flag dropping the pot on the flag carrier was extremely satisfying as well as transforming your plane in bot form and stumping them to death 😱

Michiel1989460d ago

Resistance was the best co-op fps I ever played after L4D2

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

1Victor764d ago

Can’t wait for their next franchise

SullysCigar764d ago

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

jznrpg764d ago

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

badz149764d 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!

Vengeance1138764d 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 Kim764d ago

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

VersusDMC764d 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?

Vengeance1138764d ago

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

solideagle764d 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.

Phoenix76764d 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

REDGUM764d ago

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

thesoftware730764d ago (Edited 764d 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.

blacktiger764d ago

thank you fps lover, I'm with you

talocaca764d ago

Such a wonderful studio. They deserve all their success.

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

OzzY-waZZy764d ago (Edited 764d ago )

Kinda wish they move on from Horizon tbh.

lukasmain764d ago

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

Imalwaysright764d ago

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