AusGamers has an extensive hands-on preview up for Killzone 2.
From the preview:
Sequel to the poorly received but ambitious Killzone for PlayStation 2, Killzone 2 sets out to do everything right on the PlayStation 3 delivering a fast-paced and action-packed first-person shooter experience with stunning visuals and an equally robust and strong multiplayer offering. But can it live upto its own hype?
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.
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!!
The time is perfect for a resistance fall of man game campaign coop multiplayer
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 😱
The Amsterdam-based studio reflects on its humble beginnings, beloved franchises, and growth through the years.
Up there with the top tier in the industry. Love Guerrilla Games - Horizon Burning Shores is simply STUNNING.
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
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.
Such a wonderful studio. They deserve all their success.
The Decima Engine is absolute 🔥 I'm just mad they have abandoned Killzone.
Alex DS. from Link Cable Gaming writes: "Is the PlayStation 3 retro? This is a surprisingly hard question to answer as the system definitely has the age to be considered retro, having launched in 2006, over 15 years ago now. But with it being home to so many massive games, many of which still hold up today and in fact were released for the PlayStation 4 when that console was released, make the PS3 a retro console that doesn’t feel retro."
Typically, the term retro is given to items which are at least 20 years old (but not yet 40 years old).
Quick google search
No the PS3 is not yet a retro console. But if you're gonna put 1 game from a series in this list, then LBP2 should be there instead of the original, Motorstorm PR is also an overall better game than the 1st game and to put Tools of Destruction over A Crack in Time is a blasphemy when ACiT is the best game in the series.
since this guy's opinion is quite the opposite of what every other preview out there stated about the "sluggish controls' and the game being "standard".
"we've been here before"
Really? Same thing I feel about Halo... 1, 2 and 3. Imagine that. All FPS are the same!!!! You play as a gun and that's it. You are a gun and you run around and shoot things and they have no freedom. None of them.
A FPS is a FPS. You get what you pay for.
a standard shooter with amazing graphics, new very cool cover system, crazy awesome rag doll physics and from what im hearing the MP is sounding off the chain.
im loving the weapons so far.
lovin the game play (from what ive seen)
no 1 knows what the story is like so lets wait and see.
a fps is a fps but what fps does it like this fps???? <----XD
hahhahahahhaahhahahhahahhahaha h
We already know the truth PS3rd last palce droids. hahhahahahahhaha
of course there are always those that say (insert game) sux and there's no real reason to pay attention to it for whatever reason. I hardly doubt that this is the case with KILLZONE II.
I'm guessing they blew their chances to be invited to the beta 8D.
