Awesome find. It's pretty long but I'll get to watching it all soon. It seems like it is narrated by the developer for the entire length, so hopefully we'll learn some new stuff about the gameplay mechanics.

Wh-Whats that? Halo? Never heard of it before...
*watches video again*

Fuzz McDeath6501d ago

...why you gotta go all fanboy already like that? Well, since you went there, please allow me to retort:

1. Can we call this game Gears of Resistance? What a mashup - gears aesthetic with Resistance pace and size...

2. Another brown game for the brown console - lets compare - PS3: Resistance, Lair, Warhawk, Motorstorm, KZ2 (yeah, Heavenly Sword has a color! Orange!!!). 360: Halo 3, BioShock, Mass Effect - my HDTV displays more than one color? Wow!

3. Listen to the amazing features: Cover (have to admit, I like the looks of the blind fire - props) - GoW did it better, more visceral and fun. Ragdoll physics - nice feature, for 2001. AI - again, nice feature for 2001. Boss fights? Did he say Boss fights? These guys are playing catch up. They are quoting astonishing features that franchises like Halo and Call of Duty nailed 5 years ago. If they get all these right, they'll achieve a standard, run of the mill FPS. Gonna have to get more than that to be anything special (Like, say, 4-player coop online, world class multiplayer, level-editor, saving/sharing screen caps and vids, etc...hmmm I think I know a game that has that stuff already...)

To be fair though, I've always like the art of Killzone, too bad its just so average. If this turns out great, I'll get it - but I'm not holding my breath....

25 minutes of pure glory but i stil want to see some rain on the battlefield =)

Omegasyde6503d ago

screw rain I want to see multi-player footage.

QuackPot6503d ago (Edited 6503d ago )

I want to see useable vehicle footage - buggy, tank, aircraft.

Kaneda6503d ago

screw you guys...I want this game now!!

xaphanze6504d ago

is it just me or the graphics look better?
fire effects still need some work though.Anyway why am I complaining?still long road to go.

solidt126503d ago

The fire is about the only thing I think looked better in the 2005 footage but other than that this game looks better than the CGI video in 2005.

bluegoblin6500d ago

they could make the fire look like in Snake Eater thats good enough for me since everything else looks amazing!!!

HeartlesskizZ6504d ago

I really want to see how online turns out

HeartlesskizZ6504d ago

Why Guerrilla Games Shouldn't Abandon the Killzone Series

Hugely disappointingly, it seems that Guerrilla Games, developers of the Killzone and Horizon series, may be done with Killzone for good.

1 was fine, overhyped as a " halo" killer
2 was a graphical beast at the time, and felt heavy
3 was good a refinement of 2 but not much else. weird audio issues environment were to quiet
shadow fall was pretty but bland

OtterX234d ago (Edited 234d ago )

Shadowfall had great Multiplayer though. Too bad the campaign was meh at best. It did have the occasional great moment sprinkled in.

TheNamelessOne234d ago (Edited 234d ago )

I played through 2/3 multiple times. I played through the original once, but it felt pretty lukewarm for me. I couldn't be bothered to beat Shadow Fall. I got a couple hours in and just went "I'm done". Never touched it again. It was awesome on the tech side, being a launch title, but it didn't even match up to the first game when it came to actually having fun playing it.

Rude-ro234d ago

3 in 3d was an amazing experience to be had.
Although not many experienced it as intended for good reasons.

just_looken234d ago

You forgot the ai advancements on the playstation 2 killzone one you could have a full team of bots doing everything even playing the objective that was a big thing.

In killzone 2 they always flanked you and when available used the high ground.

Playing killzone 2 no hud 5.1 audio was/is awesome

MDTunkown234d ago

They should finish Horizon story first

darthv72234d ago

I dont mind if someone else takes up the mantle for the KZ franchise. We are several years removed from the first game. It certainly could use a remake to gauge interest in the rest of the series. I know it has its fans... Im thinking of how a proper reboot can rekindle that old dormant flame and bring in a new generation of fans in the process.

just_looken234d ago

You forgot killzone mercenaries on the ps vita but it was the worst selling sony game for awhile there.

Yui_Suzumiya233d ago

Yeah, a remake would be pretty awesome

anast234d ago

They should let it go or sell it. No use spending millions on this project.

LucasRuinedChildhood234d ago

Would like a new IP before Horizon 3. Just because games take so long to make these days.

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-ro463d ago

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

darthv72463d 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_463d ago

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

Cacabunga463d ago

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

Profchaos463d ago (Edited 463d 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

seanpitt23463d 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!

Iceball2000463d ago

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

Father__Merrin463d ago

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

InUrFoxHole463d ago

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

Marcus Fenix463d ago

A Resistance reboot will be awesome

Michiel1989463d ago

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

1Victor463d ago (Edited 463d 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 😱

Michiel1989463d 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.

1Victor767d ago

Can’t wait for their next franchise

SullysCigar767d ago

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

jznrpg767d ago

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

badz149767d 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!

Vengeance1138767d 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 Kim767d ago

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

VersusDMC767d 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?

Vengeance1138767d ago

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

solideagle767d 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.

Phoenix76767d 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

REDGUM767d ago

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

thesoftware730767d ago (Edited 767d 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.

blacktiger767d ago

thank you fps lover, I'm with you

talocaca767d ago

Such a wonderful studio. They deserve all their success.

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

OzzY-waZZy767d ago (Edited 767d ago )

Kinda wish they move on from Horizon tbh.

lukasmain767d ago

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

Imalwaysright767d ago

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