Why Flower has Killzone 2 Beat

gameplayer writes:

"Videogaming, as a medium, is immature – we know that. We get it. It's hammered home by everyone – those that design games, those that write about games, those that play games. Backed by any kind of objective judgement, the pursuit of videogames as art is constantly being compared to that of child in pampers – a barely functional, illiterate, tongue-tied non-entity, bathing in its own fluids, longing for the day when it can indulge in a decent discourse without shitting itself..."

Sony is king of innovative games.

Danja5539d ago (Edited 5539d ago )

and both Flower and KZ2 are exclusive to the PS3..

both are great games...which shouldn't really be compared but Flower is amazing....I haven't beaten it yet ...but damn the animations is freakin awesome.....

Mikerra175539d ago

your right they should not be comapared because they are 2 different games at almost everyway you look at it

nycredude5539d ago

Are you inherently a retard or do you jsut try really hard to sound like one.

djtek1845539d ago

Can I have some of what your smoking?

Cerberus21255539d ago

You are a Buffoon,you give video games a bad name,Flower is a masterpiece.

Rice5539d ago

Flower is a beautiful game, content and is decades ahead of the medium.

I though want this game really badly, who wants to share i'll exchange pixel junk eden?

Bathyj5539d ago

Flower might be great, but its rules cant be applied to every game.

What is he saying, to be elevated to a piece of art Killzone has to have no story, while keeping the action and mechanics in tune with the setting.

Can you imagine the pounding if Killzone had NO STORY. Sure Gears 1 got away with it, but this is a PS3 game. Flower wouldn't get away with it either if it was full price.

ianp6225539d ago

If you think Flower had no story, then you either didn't play it or you didn't pay attention.

This article is one of the best articles I've read from a major gaming website in a long time, because it acknowledges that games aren't movies, and shows how a game that treats itself accordingly will advance the genre much more than a cinematic game.

Bathyj5539d ago

So what was the story, I must have missed it. I haven't finished it yet, do you hear the whole thing at the end?

GrieverSoul5539d ago

The story of flower isnt made of words but rather visual representations. To sum it up:

Lv01 to 06

Flower restores the world in the beginning
The world is consumed by polution due to non friendly environment energy
Flower shows that wind energy is good
Flower fights back the polution of non friendly environment energy
Flower shows the world that wind energy is the way to go
Flower goes into to town and turns its colour since it no longer pollutes due to the wind energy adoptation

Flower might be a representation of NAture´s will.
Thats the beauty of the game, it opens your imagination to what is happenning instead of laying out a story in words.

Kyur4ThePain5539d ago

Bubbles!!!

I thought I was the only one that was able to "read" the story.
Glad to see there are others out there with open eyes and open minds.

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-ro46d ago

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

darthv7246d 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_46d ago

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

Cacabunga46d ago

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

Profchaos46d ago (Edited 46d 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

seanpitt2346d 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!

Iceball200047d ago

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

Father__Merrin47d ago

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

InUrFoxHole47d ago

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

Marcus Fenix47d ago

A Resistance reboot will be awesome

Michiel198946d ago

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

1Victor47d ago (Edited 47d 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 😱

Michiel198946d 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.

1Victor351d ago

Can’t wait for their next franchise

SullysCigar351d ago

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

jznrpg350d ago

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

badz149350d 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!

Vengeance1138351d 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 Kim351d ago

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

VersusDMC351d 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?

Vengeance1138351d ago

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

solideagle351d 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.

Phoenix76350d 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

REDGUM350d ago

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

thesoftware730351d ago (Edited 351d 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.

blacktiger350d ago

thank you fps lover, I'm with you

talocaca351d ago

Such a wonderful studio. They deserve all their success.

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

OzzY-waZZy351d ago (Edited 351d ago )

Kinda wish they move on from Horizon tbh.

potatoseal350d ago

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

Imalwaysright350d 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."

shinoff2183722d ago

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

shinoff2183722d 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

badz149722d 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.
