Yahoo - Killzone 3 Review

Yahoo - The fictitious Helghast enemy isn’t the only target in Sony’s sights for this shooter that revels in shock and awe tactics to draw attention, including Move compatibility. Can 'Killzone 3' topple ‘Call of Duty’ and ‘Halo’ for the people’s favourite Campaign and online Multiplayer hang-outs?

i hope so because i might buy it just for the sp because im not really a fps multiplayer guy with the exception of bad company :P

DragonWarrior4958d ago

well if you think you'd enjoy the single player then you would love the multiplayer, cause its even better. I wouldn't take yahoo's review seriously either btw. They gave kz3 a 4/5 and Bulletstorm 5/5. I would love to meet the douche bag that did that one.

trainsinrdr4958d ago

ewwwwwwwwwwwwwww i played the bulletstorm demo and it was hideous it was so cheesy and it made me depressed and the guns are retarded and the enemys are even worse

"I would love to meet the douche bag that did that one"

Lol. How sad. You're so personally offended that ANOTHER GAME scored better than the one you like...so you want to meet to person to berate them and tell them that you are right and they are wrong.

It's like...a game and stuff and that.

Get a life.

@MariaHelFutura

It's 'only-child-syndrome'.

With no social conditioning they are left with only their possessions to gauge their worth. It's a sad state of affairs.

Instead of a hug they get money for a game, and years later, they exist as the scum of the internet.

@wenaldy

Here is a reason why Bulletstorm is better than KZ3....it doesn't look like $#!+ :)

Why does it have to always be like this?

If you like 1 game/system, you don`t like the other.

thereapersson4958d ago

Yahoo gave Bulletstorm a perfect 5/5 score; Killzone 3 a 4/5.

Achemki4958d ago

@whitenoise
Is only child syndrome the same as only bubble syndrome?

Douwantit4958d ago

Awesome yahoo didnt even play Killzone3 in 3d, so honeslty you should not even be able to review it you do not play it in 3d.

But Killzone3 is head and shoulders Bulletstorm. I mean come on Move support,3D support, Splitscreen Co-op. That right there is 3 more times then what Bulletstorm does.

Funny how when a game is so good as Killzone 3 its just like Killzone 2 and blah blah. People are just jealous that Killzone 3 added so much more from Killzone 2, that no other sequel can even compete.

MaxXAttaxX4957d ago

It's only Yahoo! LOL

They obviously don't know their shit if they give worse games higher scores.

@SMOK3

Give me couple reasons that BS is better than Killzone 3...

Edit: Way to go phantom disagree-ers... :D

The_Ultimate_Guy4958d ago

Bulletstorym brings something new into an over saturated genre with the many unique ways of killing an enemy.

It has a better story/campaign.

The campaign is longer.

There's 3 for you.

Rageanitus4958d ago

@the ultimate guy

Bulletstorm brings alot of ideas plopped into a single FPS with no sense of direction sorry but that is a negative in my books

A longer campaign does not make a game better

lol both have crap stories these games are not meant to portray a story like environment like in games like Alan Wake or Heavy Rain

wenaldy4958d ago

@The_Ultimate_guy

Better story is a matter of taste and subjective.
Length of campaign depends on player.

But, i agree with the ways of killing an enemy.

miyamoto4957d ago (Edited 4957d ago )

According to Yahoo!

BS is 5/5 and is on the PS3 but also on the Xbox 360 as its FPS game against KZ3 on launch day.

KZ3 is only 4/5 nd only on Sony PS3

and Yahoo is Microsoft's ally against rival Google. and you know how Sony & Google are partners made in heaven.

And also since 2006 its unpopular to give PS3 games a perfect score.

Eyeco4958d ago

according to Yahoo Bejweled is one of the 10 best games of the last decade, they clearly have no credibility.

wenaldy4958d ago

They gave Bulletstorm a 5...!!!! LOLWTF???

macky3014958d ago (Edited 4958d ago )

Well yahoo is owned by Ms,.. Don't want to imply anything, because I haven't read it, nor do I really care,.. Maybe they just have a different taste,..

To me personally KZ3 is a far better game in every way imaginable,... And I actually had fun with Bultetstorm for quite some time,.. even juvenile humor and repetitiveness did not bother me much,..

Raven_Nomad4958d ago

Yahoo isn't owned by MS you idiot. Microsoft owns Bing. Next time you want to make excuses about why a PS3 game didn't score too well, look to the crummy game and take the blinders off.

macky3014958d ago (Edited 4958d ago )

I may be ill-informed,.. but I really thought the deal went trough,...

''It looks like it’s a done deal. Last night Yahoo agreed to be acquired by Microsoft for $47.2 billion, only $2.6 billion more than Microsoft’s original offer on Jan. 31st. This is huge news! ''

Sir, good day to you, also I am holding a middle finger for some reason,..

Raven_Nomad4958d ago

There is no deal to date. YOUR WRONG!
Just looking for some magical reason why the mighty Killzone 3 was given a lesser score.

I find it funny when PS3 fanboys search for mythical reasoning as to why there games get less then stellar scores, from conspiracy theories to theories of Microsoft paying people off, it's just insane and I've never seen anything else quite like it.

Game is fair, nothing new, nothing interesting, got scores from EVERYONE saying the exact same things. Get over it, play it if you like it, stop complaining otherwise.

Douwantit4958d ago (Edited 4958d ago )

Come on its obvious how a mediocre game like Bulletstorm is getting perfect scores. And yes i have played it on my PS3, so its not like it a 360 exclusive.

I mean anybody that has played either game knows which one is far better. And offers a much better experience in all aspects.

Raven_Nomad
Obviously uyou have not played K3 if you say nothing new? Playing it with 3d and move support, makes it totally different then K2. And you can not go by any reviews that didnt not play the game in this manner, which was pretty much all of them.

cyborg69714958d ago

Raven is a paid ms troll. His job is to derail any and everything Killzone. This is the only reason he and white douche bag noise are always seen the anything Killzone related.

trounbyfire4958d ago (Edited 4958d ago )

is it sad that i expect PS3 exclusives to get average scores.

LOL even sarcastic gamer had a article up before the first GT5 review embargo was lifted saying GT5 would be criticized for being a sim and not having explosion. either he can predict the future or some blatant BS is going on <<< not bulletstorm btw

UC3, InFamous 2 maybe, and LBP2 will be the highest rated PS3 exclusive this year. actually some sights IGN have started to get themselves read for some UC3 bashing. trust me "it feels to much like UC2" "relies on to many your walking and a wall blows out type scenes" "

macky3014958d ago (Edited 4958d ago )

I would not be surprised PS3 exclusives get really shat on this year, by large western gaming media,..

There is way to much money involved (online marketing, direct or indirect influence,...)

I am not talking about microsoft specifically,.. but third party publishers in general, that still compete on the same market,..

I think U3 will get so much shit it will be like the twilight zone,.. I think KZ3 did quite well in the press all things considered,..

Thoreau4958d ago

the west is filled with idiots that cannot think for themselves......they are playing bulletstorm, need i say more..

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

1Victor504d ago

Can’t wait for their next franchise

SullysCigar504d 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

badz149503d 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!

Vengeance1138504d 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 Kim504d ago

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

VersusDMC504d 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?

Vengeance1138504d ago

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

solideagle504d 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.

Phoenix76504d 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

thesoftware730504d ago (Edited 504d 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.

blacktiger503d ago

thank you fps lover, I'm with you

talocaca504d ago

Such a wonderful studio. They deserve all their success.

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

OzzY-waZZy504d ago (Edited 504d 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.

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

MadLad1255d 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.

Applejack1255d 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_B1255d ago

Even emulators are super simple to use.

jukins1255d 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.

1255d ago
Vegamyster1254d 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.

SinkingSage1254d ago

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

Rachel_Alucard1254d ago (Edited 1254d 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.

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

MadLad1254d ago

Did you purposely miss the entire point of my post?

Inverno1254d 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

Top 10 PS3 Games We Hope Come Back On PS5

While Xbox has committed to backwards compatibility spanning four generations, PlayStation has continued their stance that the feature isn't important. Well, it is! I'm hoping these PlayStation 3 classics that skipped the PS4 entirely show up again on the PS5 for everyone to enjoy.

Resistance, Dead Space franchise, Splatterhouse, Lollipop Chainsaw, Brutal Legends, Alice Madness Returns, Enslaved Journey to the West, Mass Effect franchise. Also wouldn't mind seeing a new Wild Arms game remake or HD remaster, the Xenosaga trilogy, a new Parasite Eve, a new Dino Crisis just too many games to list that are forgotten and left in the dark now adays.

Sciurus_vulgaris1432d ago

The PS3 is difficult to emulate. PS3 backwards compatibility on PS5 would require translation from PowerPC to x86. Additionally the PS5 likely would have to mimic the PS3’s GPU and CPU.

This is what pops up on my web browser. So I can't even read the site. So, forget that. They don't need my data.

But let's get something straight. OG Xbox had around 1,001 games. How many are BC on Series X? **39** THIRTY NINE. Come on! That's wack BC. You can't tell me that's a complete list. Talking about commitment. Game preservation. Ridiculous. Covers nothing.

How many games released on Xbox 360? Around 2085. How many are BC?
568. That's it. Around 1,517 are **MISSING** Stop playing. Tired of that nonsense.

Anyway, the only games I really want from PS3 that would be awesome are Motorstorm and MGS4. I'll take BC. I'll take a remaster. I'll take a remake. If not those, then Killzone 2. And in VR, maybe Sports Champions, House of the Dead Overkill and the Time Crisis games.

That's all I need. But we've gone over BC again and again in every possible way. It wasn't that important because Sony sold 115 million consoles without it. That's proof enough with no outcry. And PS5 has damn near all 4,000+ PS4 games BC. It's not PS1,PS2 and PS3. But that's plenty. I'll take more but you get what you get.
