In a reply to one of the PS Blog comments, Mike Graham (Associate Producer in SCEA) had to say this:
"Thanks everyone for the positive reception! I can confirm that we definitely have Trophies in the title.
And I can also say that you will be seeing Killzone 2 ads everywhere very soon. Our Marketing guys have been working their tail off."
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.
Same. They nailed it with Horizon. The trouble is I also want a new Killzone! Can't I just have it all?!
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!
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
One year after realease HZD sold 7.6 million.

So not a drop off.
Unless you're saying a HFW should have sold as much now as HZD sold in 5 years?
It's been 3 games, this includes Call of the Mountain. Also no, its a great improvement over HZD.
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.
@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
Wow, very impressive. I didn't know the numbers were so high for Forbidden West. Still playing through it myself
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.
They are probably working on mutiple projects. One of them is Horizon 3, but another is a multiplaer game and probably somehting else.
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.
A group of dedicated fans have seemingly restored online functionality to Guerilla Games' 2009 title, Killzone 2 online multiplayer this 2021.
killzone 2 multiplayer is a perfect example of people not knowing what they had until it was gone.
I remember the complaints vividly. "the game feels too heavy", "it should be more like COD" etc. Well they gave them what they wanted with KZ3, made it more like COD. And then the complaints were "I liked how KZ2 was".
Sometimes (not all the time), it doesn't pay to listen to the fans. Because even when you give them what they want, they still complain
not only the general core feel, but just in general how feature pack the Mp was
Clan system, leaderboards, ect
You don’t get that nowadays
KZ2 and MGO from MGS4 were really supremely well made , equal to original Counter Strike ....the plague of COD though didnt let them shine
Yeah I'd point to comments like that being Echo chambers people who are satisfied with something don't have a inclination to speak out so the game in its original state would have been great but the changes drive the players who were happy with the state of kz2 to complain when 3 dropped.
Probably the biggest example of this was the launch of the X1 many people hated the online activations and used game policy being tied to a cd key etc so it went away followed by many people saying they preferred the original vision for game swapping digitally and other things neither side is right or wrong it's just that corporations will go to damage control to appease the outcry initially
They are just faking and showing up for no logical reason like writing critical reviews and I know the review system is flawed with holes and your point is one of them , cause many gamers don't represent them actually. "And I really hate them when they find nothing to complain they label it as an ol gray dark brown trend from the 90s with a large slow extension accent ".
You can make some of the people happy all of the time, all of the people happy some of the time, but you can't make all of the people happy all of the time.
I never liked fps or multi player game but kz2 was awesome. Spent countless nights playing MP. Still vividly remember holding a post as the enemies charged towards us. My God! Will never forget this game. The game's design gave it a different post apocalyptic vibe.
shit, I don't play MP games hardly ever yet one of the very few I have was KZ2 and I played the SHI!T out of it.
The funny thing about Killzone 2...
I don't like FPS games. Just don't. Gave This one a go, and the single player was eh for me. But the multiplayer? I actually really enjoyed this game online. To be clear, last game I really enjoyed online before that was Warhawk.
I'd love it if both games were revived.
Amen. Sadly you can't ever please everyone. And people LOVE to complain. This maybe sounds like lala land, but it would be so nice if people tried to find the good in things instead of complaining most of the time.
I think GG should revive the franchise now. I mean, it's been long enough, and I'm sure the new game engine they have will be more than enough to run it, and such.
Killzone MP had a lot of variety. What I wasn't a fan of was the "heavy" feeling. It was a bit too much.
I remember picking up shadow fall, and the community was dead within months. I loved KZ2 definitely top of the line, I was all over that and Gears at the time. Too bad, it didn't last :(
I liked the heavy feel, it's more realistic than most games where guns are essentially weightless
I absolutely loved Warhawk it was amazing for its time. Starhawk not so much.
@hikory your ____
Anyway the moral of the post is
Because you like a game doesn’t mean your opinion is almighty and your game is unsurpassable.
KZ2 was the best MP Shooter experience on console. I absolutely loved the gameplay, and I hoped they made the MP system to be the standard across Sony Titles and on the platform, but they scrapped it as soon as KZ3. What an absolute shame. It's Clan support, arranged match support, messaging etc should have been integrated to PSN.
I had a few hours of online mayhem in Killzone 2 today, rusty skills and all..it's still a blast! That ping when you off someone never gets old!
What a rush and a awesome throwback to fun and careless times lol
Ignoring all of the controversy, when this game was released it felt good and looked amazing. Had no interest in 3 or Shadow. I think I just enjoyed the colot pallet of this futuristic shooter and the fact we were taking the fight to the Helgast
Loved 2 the most, as it felt like a huge leap forward. 3 was great too, but for different reasons, like the surprisingly great Move sharpshooter!
I played through 3 with the sharpshooter on my 3d projector screen and 7.1 surround. It was crazy fun. I was very tired after 2 days of solid playing to beat the game.
Played 3 with move and navi, no sharpshooter, i felt like a god!! And that satisfying kill noise
:0 What have I been missing? I had a PS3 for a hot minute but I guess I missed out on some dank motion controls.
my only problem with the sharpshooter was that it made it all too easy. it was too accurate and easy to control
Thank You!

Even EU?
