Open Beta canceled and new images for Killzone 3

4News.it: A big mistake?

At the expense of what we published recently, Guerrilla Games has put online the link to access the Killzone Beta 3. We learn from an anonymous source close to Sony that in fact the Beta was supposed to remain closed, a gift for only a small number of enthusiastic users who have subscribed to the service Playstation + and did the chance to test the previous chapter.

Also seems that the holders of that Beta will soon also be able to test an update for the Playstation Move, just introduced a few days in the market.

=( SONY
I'm not going to pretend im not happy with ps+ because i am happy with what they have given me,but they need to sort there shit out on the uk store every monthly update has been late or came the next day we never got out heavy rain theme and next months content has dlc missing oh and this months unannounced surprises was 2 demo's(that sucks)and still no beta in sight i'd still sign up for playstation plus again dispite the difference between the eu and the us plus exprience i am very happy just wish sony would stick to there word so it would be that much sweeter and why do the updated really late on in the day they said ps+ is for hardcore games we don't want to wait all day for the new stuff thats one thing i prefered about microsoft wake up in the morning and your shit was there to download

iamnsuperman5392d ago

The Beta situation should be clarified. Its really only open Betas that we get invited for without any special circumstance attached to it. I am happy with PSN+ too but it does seam the US are getting a better deal with some of the releases. I think Sony need to re-evaluate the PSN+ situation. We are basically normal subscribers but we pay to get things discounted.

dangert125392d ago

yeah it does need looking at,
it feels like they sat in a meeting and said we need a premium sevice better then xbox live but then did not add structure to it making it seem thrown together

mrv3215392d ago

Open beta: Is something you don't have to apply for, it's just released on PSN these are usually mere server tests note MGO BETA.
Closed beta: Is something you are sent and email for, you are chosen by SOny or a company.
Then there's the awkward middle child where you must jump through hoops to get in, sign up to euro gamer, find the hidden code etc.

The_Count5392d ago

This whole beta thing with PS+ has benn a shambles. I'm disapointed tbh.

Rainstorm815392d ago

The beta can remain closed, but PS+ users NEED to be involved in the closed beta.

1. Half the people that got PS+ heard that we will get betas and im sure KZ3 beta was in majority of those users thoughts.

2. KZ3 beta will bring more PS+ users

Its a win-win....... dont be stupid Sony & GG

BTW ive long since gotten my moneys worth out of PS+ but i would definately like more betas......Wheres the LBP2 beta for PS+ users????

dangert125392d ago

I think sony will remian professional at what they are doing and thats why were not getting into these beta's but i reckon the open ones that you normally go on a sight and download the code for will be more easier to access if you ask me like the blur one not long back saying that im sure the medal oh honour one came out while plus was out and ignored the service completely

X-Frame5392d ago

There's no way they're going to be able to allow every PS+ subscriber to get in every important beta like KZ3. If anything, it'll be a random selection process of PS+ people.

ElementX5392d ago (Edited 5392d ago )

"Half the people that got PS+ heard that we will get betas and im sure KZ3 beta was in majority of those users thoughts."

Don't make assumptions! You'll get your exclusive betas for PacMan Universe or Barbie Horse Riders 3D or something.

You were scammed into PS+ by talk of betas but you really have no idea what sort of betas you'll have access to, furthermore, not every + user will have access to every beta that's made available.

Longrod_Von_Hugendon5392d ago

"We learn from an anonymous source close to Sony"

Yeah I stopped reading after that.

Christopher5392d ago

***At the expense of what we published recently, Guerrilla Games has put online the link to access the Killzone Beta 3.***

I'm confused.

suleproductions5392d ago

I'm a ps+ plus member and own kz2 does tht mean I get in the beta?

There's too many games to choose from

No Metal geat solid 1,2,3,4?
No Resident evil?
No Silent hill?
No Midnight club 3?
No NfS Underground 2?
No Final Fantasy?
No Burnout 3?
No Dragon quest 8?
No Days gone?
No Ace combat?
No Tekken/Soul calibur?......
just from the top of my head

PS1 era was full of great RPGs, PS2 was racing generation i would pick top 200 and even that would be just a fraction.

FinalFantasyFanatic210d ago

30 is way too low over the entire history of Playstation, I just wouldn't be able to narrow it down that much, I would pick 100 at least.

Storm23210d ago

Yeah...really odd list. I get that it is personal preference and I love most of the games listed, but my list would definitely be different. I agree though, it would be incredibly difficult to come up with just 30.

lockedongamer1210d ago (Edited 210d ago )

I only picked first-party titles. Otherwise, I agree!

EDIT: Except for Days Gone, I don't get the love for it but you do you!

Chocoburger201d ago

I didn't like Days Gone either, it doesn't deserve to be on any best of list.

PlayStation Move Controller Used to Perform Surgery on a Pig That Was 5,780 Miles Away

A group of surgeons made headlines after they managed to perform an endoscopic procedure on a pig located in Hong Kong by using PlayStation controllers. It involved the use of a PS5 DualSense controller as well as a PlayStation Move controller.

jznrpg252d ago

There is at least a few good jokes that could come from that title

Cacabunga251d ago

Yet another powerful device Sony gave up supporting. KZ3 move was one of the best motion controller implementation ever

just_looken251d ago

Right the ps move was awesome i have the gun thing from killzone still.

Relientk77252d ago

That's really cool. It's crazy something like that is possible with gaming controllers 1000's of miles away.

Lexreborn2251d ago

Guess that submarine should’ve used move controllers instead of logitech

PlayStation is saving lives and releasing the best games.

Up there with the top tier in the industry. Love Guerrilla Games - Horizon Burning Shores is simply STUNNING.

1Victor776d ago

Can’t wait for their next franchise

SullysCigar776d ago

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

jznrpg776d ago

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

badz149776d 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!

Vengeance1138776d 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 Kim776d ago

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

VersusDMC776d 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?

Vengeance1138776d ago

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

solideagle776d 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.

Phoenix76776d 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

REDGUM776d ago

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

thesoftware730776d ago (Edited 776d 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.

blacktiger776d ago

thank you fps lover, I'm with you

talocaca776d ago

Such a wonderful studio. They deserve all their success.

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

OzzY-waZZy776d ago (Edited 776d ago )

Kinda wish they move on from Horizon tbh.

lukasmain776d ago

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

Imalwaysright776d ago

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