Killzone 3 to have midnight launch at Walmart

"Some of you may still be playing the Killzone 3 multiplayer beta, but the rest are still anxiously waiting the forthcoming release of Killzone 3. Sometimes, the wait gets so hard that you couldn't sleep the night before launch. If that's the case and you're staying up anyway, better put that lack of sleep to good use and get the game at midnight."

jidery5252d ago (Edited 5252d ago )

Last i checked all Walmarts are open 24 hours?

@disturbing_flame

Thanks dude, that has so much relevance to my post.

disturbing_flame5252d ago

Who think this game will make 1 million copy sold in week 1 ?

TheLastGuardian5252d ago

I wish Amazon would come to your house and give you your games at midnight on the release date if you asked them to.

@Jidery
Your the first commenter. The first reply doesn't really need to be relevant to your post.

Pixel_Enemy5252d ago

I hope that Gamestop has a midnight launch! I need this game at midnight

ChrisW5252d ago (Edited 5252d ago )

Disturbing_Flame,

I gave you a disagree because if you're referring to worldwide sales, I think you're aiming AWFULLY low.

BIGBOSS085252d ago

worldwide? it should be way more than that! most average games sell 1 million on ps3 on their first week.

Not every Walmart has every department open. I know the one right next to me does, but the other one a few miles away close their gaming department after 10PM

disturbing_flame5252d ago

It was not a direct answer to your post.

Just an alternative to open an other discussion. ;)

Soldierone5252d ago

@disturbing, how about posting your own reply then....

As for this Supercenters are open 24 hours. As long as they stock it a day before you can get it anyways. Just go ask someone else to open the case for you.

disturbing_flame5252d ago

And miss the opportunity to post a question in reaction to a question that is not really a question ?
No way ;)

MidnytRain5252d ago

This is N4G. More than half the time, the replies to the first commentor are made just so they'll be at the top of the page so everyone will read it. I'm actually developing a habit of ignoring the first post and its replies. They are usually only made for attention.

Sunny_D5252d ago

YAY! Wal-mart! Where I can buy cheap products along with other middle class families like the single mother(because the dad just left) with crying kids running around the place!

MrBubble5252d ago (Edited 5252d ago )

Ya but that's the best part about walmart

And the fat people in rascles

Oh dear god so much fun

kneon5252d ago

@MrBubble

You're probably a fan of this site then

iheartSONY5252d ago

I wont step foot in that place. Ill wait till 9am the next morning and walk into target and buy there.

Death to WalMart and its disfunctional people.

U ALREADY KNOW THAT WALMART GOT.....KILZONED!!!!

BiggCMan5252d ago

In a nerdy way, this is somewhat amusing haha.

multiman5252d ago

I hope they have a midnight launch is Aussie land.

I might take the friday off work to play it all night. :)

I really hope this game sells well.

nevin15252d ago

My Local WalMart opens from 6AM- 12AM.

Anyway, The servers are horrible. You barley can play online. And I hate the fact u can't cancel the connecting sequence.

multiman5252d ago (Edited 5252d ago )

People really complain about anything these days don't they?!

Like you are playing an open beta and your complaining about the servers.

Yeah dam you sony for not giving us enough servers for a FREE open beta, dam you.

nevin15252d ago

That made no sense at all. Betas are meant to test the game and get feedback. Right now people aren't getting enough out of the beta and could easily be turned off. This beta is meant for non FPS or ppl who are not interested in Killzone3

By your logic people shouldn't complain about public school considering its free.

multiman5252d ago (Edited 5252d ago )

Although in my country public schooling isn't free at all.

And I have played a heap of hours of the beta and not had one problem finding a game.

SasanovaS19875252d ago

ever seen a new article on a website, thats gets tons of traffic, and you just cant enter the website at all? same applies here. overloaded servers. be patient and wait your turn. usually, its easy to get in real late, around like 3 am.

Tsalagi5252d ago (Edited 5252d ago )

Yeah right. My brother went to the midnight launch of RDR because he wanted the free deck of cards. When we got there we were told that the rep who stocks the game does not come in until 9am the next day and to come back. When we went the next day it took him until 1pm to finally get around to doing his job. Don't waste your time, go to another store or order online. Wal-Mart sucks for midnight launches.

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.

FinalFantasyFanatic212d 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.

Storm23212d 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.

lockedongamer1212d ago (Edited 212d 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!

Chocoburger203d ago

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

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

1Victor778d ago

Can’t wait for their next franchise

SullysCigar778d ago

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

jznrpg778d ago

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

badz149778d 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!

Vengeance1138778d 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 Kim778d ago

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

VersusDMC778d 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?

Vengeance1138778d ago

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

solideagle778d 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.

Phoenix76778d 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

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

thesoftware730778d ago (Edited 778d 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.

blacktiger778d ago

thank you fps lover, I'm with you

talocaca778d ago

Such a wonderful studio. They deserve all their success.

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

OzzY-waZZy778d ago (Edited 778d ago )

Kinda wish they move on from Horizon tbh.

lukasmain778d ago

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

Imalwaysright778d ago

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

Killzone 3 is playable with mouse & keyboard on PC via RPCS3 & KAMI

Still looks secure 2 gens later... one of my favorite ps3 moments. With 3D and move the game is on another level

MadLad1529d ago

PC almost always ends up the best place to play games, even if it takes a while.

What would you rather play decades down the line? A game at a fixed resolution and frame, considering you have a working disc, and the hardware?
Or run it on an emulator that can update the experience all around, and let you use whatever control input you prefer?

If you insist on the former, it's really only for the sake of nostalgia.

Applejack1529d ago

I disagree. The main draw for consoles has always be the simplicity of just putting the disc in / downloading it and playing without worrying about anything else. The average person just wouldn’t want to deal with emulation even though it’s very important for preservation.

Terry_B1529d ago

Even emulators are super simple to use.

jukins1529d ago

Youre getting flak because people on here thibk of themselves as pc wizards. But honestly most poeple try and go get emulators and romz they end up with malware.. yes theyre "easy" if you know the basics but alot of people dont. That said the fact that its taken nearly 20 years to get a sustantially better experience for ps3 games than on its native system shows the complexity of getting bc to work. Sony, if they have any intention, should just invest in a vastly better psnow experience.

1529d ago
Vegamyster1529d ago

jukins

Most people who emulate don't get malware, you'd have to be going to some weird sites for that to happen, heck years ago people were getting sketchier ad's resulting in malware warning on this site if you didn't have a ad-blocker lol.

SinkingSage1529d ago

Can't get malware if you legally dump your own games, which you should.

Rachel_Alucard1529d ago (Edited 1529d ago )

That's fine if that's the main draw, but it doesn't make it a better experience, just a preference. Having the freedom to do the things you can do on PC is what the appeal of PC is. Buying a game on PC means you never have to worry about the console makers just deciding the next hardware shouldn't support the generation anymore, which means everything you bought is stuck on that hardware instead of moving up with everything else. Nintendo uses this tactic to keep reselling the same games over and over at inflated prices. Sony cut all previous gens off the PS4 and sold it back to people in a poor attempt with PSnow. While the PS5 supports PS4 games, that may not be the case in the next gen after this. No to mention shutting off all the previous stores and updates completely. Even MS stopped making new BC titles at some point, so now there's a big list with 17 pages of titles that are not playable on Xbone and are just trapped on older gen. That's not a problem on PC, the reverse happens where you only have to worry if your hardware can play the newest releases at ultra with no issue.

Shhh don't say that aloud! You're going to trigger a lot of console infidels here.

Shane Kim1529d ago

I rather play it when it's available then wait 10 years.

MadLad1528d ago

Did you purposely miss the entire point of my post?

Inverno1529d ago

Well that's the beauty of still owning a retro console tho. Those who usually complain about emulation are just being blindly loyal to a company. Emulation is great for many reason, but if I still owned the console then I disagree nothing beats plugging it back in and going down a nostalgia trip

The RPCS3 devs are doing great work. And Kami works nicely with it too it seems.
Very neat.

Magatsuhi1529d ago

Been playing mgo on pc with mouse. It's not perfect but I can make it work.

Binarycode1529d ago

2 is the better game.

A Remake would be good. 60fps 2-4k

Omar3li1529d ago

60fps is peasant for FPS games now
