One G.A.P. Member Survives the Killzone 2 Demo at E3

In the words of the Game Advisory Panel member:

" I roll up to a small joint in Santa Monica called Sushi Roku for an exclusive KILLZONE 2 event. Supposedly, my name is on a list to get in, and when I do get in, I'm wondering how my name got on that list. Sushi Roku is candlelit enough to see the waiters coming at me with hors d'oeuvres. They're awesome, but not so much as the bar with sushi chefs waiting to hand make whatever and however much sushi I please. I recognize developers, some members of the domestic and foreign press, and Kaz Hirai. The open bar keeps people talking until the first announcement is made to preview KILLZONE 2. I look at my wristband, and they're calling my color. We're led past a life-size Helghast into a small theater with comfortable seats. Everyone's quiet as they gaze upon the projection screen. There are no cameras allowed. It starts.

The first thing that I could say about about KILLZONE 2 is that during the entire presentation I thought that I was watching a prerecorded video"

-- "Something that really stands out is the smoothness of the gameplay. As you reach checkpoints, the wait time is minimal and objectives queue up, like taking down an extremely well-armored, Gatling gun-toting Helghast. There are pillars to take cover from his assault, but they disappear quickly when he discovers my position. Getting personal seems to work best as the shots to his face force him to stumble, revealing his weak point...."

-- " ....I was one of the last guys out of Sushi Roku. I talked to some amazing people. I got a few business cards. And for a regular game fan off the street, I have some awesome memories and a story that's hard to believe. But then again, some people don't believe in magic." --

....This game will torment me guys until I have it in my hands. Yeah, it's like that...I've been waiting for three + years now and Guerilla did it. It's still hard to believe, but they actually did it. It still gives me goosebumps. Mart -y tell the guys back home in the good 'ol Netherlands that Madden's Raiders says, Thank You!

cheers

@six - thanks mate

EZCheez6282d ago

I can't even count how many times I have watched this trailer. I made my wife watch it with me, and even she thinks its amazing (she is a credible source because she actually likes video games too).

Did you read this guy's bio? "I like ......,....,....., and girls."

I HOPE SO!

SIX6282d ago

and I know how you feel. It feels really good. Bubble for you.

ALIEN6282d ago

DAMN! i can't wait till i get my hands on KZ2, it's going to be crazy. Like you guys said', it feels good, it feels like if you put some 24's on a brand new car, it feels like your flying. DAMN!

weekapaugh6282d ago

wait, did he say he rolled up a small joint? I mean isn't that how all video games should be played.

timmyp536282d ago

everything* was in-game from start to begginnin... no load times. The transporter landed and u got got off exactly like the CG trailer. (*Applauds* Guerilla Games)

AIZEN SOZUKE6282d ago

well the ps3 was made to do cg and blend it with realtime, so its no suprise like i have said, and this isnt even the tip of the iceburg for ps3, so get ready for even more

harpua6282d ago

dammmmm, that is one fine looking avatar...

Maddens Raiders6282d ago

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-ro199d ago

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

darthv72199d 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_199d ago

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

Cacabunga199d ago

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

Profchaos199d ago (Edited 199d 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

seanpitt23199d 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!

Iceball2000199d ago

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

Father__Merrin199d ago

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

InUrFoxHole199d ago

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

Marcus Fenix199d ago

A Resistance reboot will be awesome

Michiel1989199d ago

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

1Victor199d ago (Edited 199d 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 😱

Michiel1989199d 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.

1Victor503d ago

Can’t wait for their next franchise

SullysCigar503d ago

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

jznrpg503d ago

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

badz149502d 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!

Vengeance1138503d 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 Kim503d ago

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

VersusDMC503d 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?

Vengeance1138503d ago

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

solideagle503d 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.

Phoenix76503d 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

REDGUM503d ago

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

thesoftware730503d ago (Edited 503d 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.

blacktiger502d ago

thank you fps lover, I'm with you

talocaca503d ago

Such a wonderful studio. They deserve all their success.

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

OzzY-waZZy503d ago (Edited 503d ago )

Kinda wish they move on from Horizon tbh.

potatoseal503d ago

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

Imalwaysright503d 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."

shinoff2183874d ago

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

shinoff2183874d 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

badz149874d 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.
