Critical Gamer: Killzone 3 in 3D with Move Hands-on

Critical Gamer writes: With Killzone 3 I popped both my 3D and PlayStation Move cherry. As with most firsts, there was a lot of fumbling and nervous laughter and ultimately, it was a mixed bag. I have never been a big fan of motion controls as I feel they are rarely used to great effect, and Killzone 3 did little to convince me otherwise. It felt tacked-on to what otherwise seemed like a solid continuation of what was achieved by the first two KZ games. With my crosshairs flying all over the screen I had difficulty in maintaining a steady aim, and turning corners was far more difficult and time consuming than it should have been.

3D sounds awesome need to get a 3D tv now tho :(

ozps35340d ago (Edited 5340d ago )

Can't wait, kz2 is my fav fps, followed by mag. Looking forward to medal of honour to fill the gap till kz3 arrives.

RememberThe3575340d ago

I think I'm with you on that. I'm still waiting to get my hands on Reach cuz my 360 is broken but my homey is about to bring over his 360 this week end and let me play that.

Since I wont have a Halo to hold me over I think MOH will have to do it unless I get sucked in by the COD hype.

paintsville5338d ago

Sony pushing 3d this early really doesn't make any sense. In order for you to take advantage of this you'll need to invest in a 3d tv and the glasses to go with it. That's a pretty big investment for the average gamer.

Cubes5340d ago

Yeah 3D looks pretty cool for gaming. Can't see me getting a 3D TV for quite a while though.

scruffy_bear5340d ago

Thats the problem with 3D tv's most people have just upgraded to HDTV

eggbert5340d ago

a TV from the 90's, it's like sub-sub-hd. only input it has is an RC switch.

I just have my PC hooked up to my PC monitor instead, its 720p so I can actually READ the text in the HD games.

jjohan355339d ago

Everyone I know has recently upgraded their TV to 1080p within the last 2 years. Nobody is willing to upgrade their TV within the next 2 years.

Not sure why TV manufacturers can't sell the emitter standalone that can work on non-3D TVs. That way you can add 3D to any current HDTV.

Socomer 19795340d ago

The rest will have to sit on the sidelines and wait it out. Playstation 3 is a luxourious pastime hobby.

Close_Second5340d ago

...I am still unconvinced with it being used with FPS/TPS games. The footage for SOCOM4 and K3 looks brilliant however.

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.

FinalFantasyFanatic161d 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.

Storm23161d 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.

lockedongamer1161d ago (Edited 161d 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!

Chocoburger152d 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.

jznrpg203d ago

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

Cacabunga202d ago

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

just_looken202d ago

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

Relientk77203d ago

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

Lexreborn2202d ago

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

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

1Victor727d ago

Can’t wait for their next franchise

SullysCigar727d ago

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

jznrpg727d ago

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

badz149726d 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!

Vengeance1138727d 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 Kim727d ago

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

VersusDMC727d 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?

Vengeance1138727d ago

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

solideagle727d 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.

Phoenix76727d 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

REDGUM727d ago

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

thesoftware730727d ago (Edited 727d 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.

blacktiger727d ago

thank you fps lover, I'm with you

talocaca727d ago

Such a wonderful studio. They deserve all their success.

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

OzzY-waZZy727d ago (Edited 727d ago )

Kinda wish they move on from Horizon tbh.

lukasmain727d ago

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

Imalwaysright727d ago

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