No Killzone 2 bundles planned for the US

Earlier this week, Sony Europe leaked packshots of a Killzone 2 bundle that would be accompanying the games release across the Atlantic. The bundle included the 80GB PS3, a Dual Shock 3, and a copy of the highly anticipated first person shooter. PS3Center followed up on the story, and contacted Sony to see if Americans would be getting the same treatment.

The disappointing answer, unfortunately, is no. Sony told PS3Center they had no plans for a Killzone 2 hardware bundle at the moment. They also mentioned, however, this was subject to change.

at least this will shut the people up who say that sony will bundle killzone 2 with every console to make it seem like it has good sales

TOO PAWNED5599d ago

"Sony told PS3Center they had no plans for a Killzone 2 hardwarde bundle at the moment. They also mentioned, however, this was subject to change" - not sure what you are trying to say there, but bundle is not something bad. MGS4 has bundle btw and that game is awesome.

MGOelite5599d ago

im not trying to say anything, i would like to see a bundle but then its just ammo for the fanboys to use, an excuse for killzones good sales

PoSTedUP5599d ago

then they should have a good spot for a super bowl commercial... if they know whats good for them...

MasFlowKiller5599d ago

The Sale for Killzone Do Not dependent on whether or not is been bundle with a PS3, it will contribute.

but if sony keep going on without advertisement then i dont see this game selling as much as Metal Gear Solid 4, remember the metal gaer solid franchise had a much larger following then killzone

shadowfox5599d ago

He just means fanboys won't be able to use the bundle as ammo. Like Motorstorm one of the best selling PS3 games, but it was bundled for close to a year, so it got a lot of 'sales' from people just buying the console.

crck5599d ago

Sony USA should just remove Uncharted from the $500 bundle and replace it with Killzone 2. Move Uncharted to the Greatest Hits line to drum up excitement for Uncharted 2. Win, win, simple as that. Now where's my 6 figure salary Sony?

BattleAxe5599d ago

If Sony doesn't come out with a Killzone 2 bundle for the US and Canada, then the Director of Marketing for SCEA should be fired. The marketing for the PS3 and its exclusive games has been horrible.

XGRaViSmOrSX5599d ago

if there is no bundle then where is the advertising....?

they really need to hit it hard with adverts. and a 30 sec ad during the super bowl would take this game a long way in getting the word out.

just use the death ballet movie cut down for 30/60sec commercials and its win.

Ah well, I already got a PS3

ha ha americans are the biggest ps3 haters

jks

Pleth5599d ago

....WHO CARES! Even if they release this game for $100.00 and I had to duct tape my testicles to my controller in order to install it to my PS3 I would still not be able to stop smiling. I will be unwrapping the game in my car on my way home from the store and already have my PS3 on so when I get home all I have to do is insert into the drive, light a smoke, take a pull off my Beck's and laugh knowing I have the next 3 days off from work.

elorm95599d ago

Seriously, I don't I'd be able to smile through that.

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.

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-ro64d ago

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

darthv7264d 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_64d ago

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

Profchaos64d ago (Edited 64d 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

seanpitt2364d 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!

Iceball200064d ago

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

Father__Merrin64d ago

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

InUrFoxHole64d ago

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

Marcus Fenix64d ago

A Resistance reboot will be awesome

Michiel198964d ago

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

1Victor64d ago (Edited 64d 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 😱

Michiel198964d 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.

1Victor368d ago

Can’t wait for their next franchise

SullysCigar368d ago

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

jznrpg368d ago

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

badz149368d 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!

Vengeance1138368d 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 Kim368d ago

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

VersusDMC368d 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?

Vengeance1138368d ago

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

solideagle368d 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.

Phoenix76368d 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

REDGUM368d ago

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

thesoftware730368d ago (Edited 368d 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.

blacktiger368d ago

thank you fps lover, I'm with you

talocaca368d ago

Such a wonderful studio. They deserve all their success.

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

OzzY-waZZy368d ago (Edited 368d ago )

Kinda wish they move on from Horizon tbh.

potatoseal368d ago

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

Imalwaysright368d ago

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

Top 20 Best PlayStation 3 Games (20-11)

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."

No ps3 is not retro. I dont even consider ps2 era retro. All imo.

shinoff2183740d ago

Typically, the term retro is given to items which are at least 20 years old (but not yet 40 years old).

Quick google search

badz149740d ago

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.
