Krypto5218d ago

Damn I wish I could contribute more but having 2 kids and a wife only gets me 4 hours a night with 5 hours of sleep... Enjoying this game alot like I enjoyed killzone 2 though!!

jriquelme_paraguay5218d ago (Edited 5218d ago )

sadly, i cant enjoy this game.. im in South America, and there is no Region for me to Select.

for me, this game is Lagzone 3.
It's strange, i can play the KZ2 fine.

waiting the patch

killcycle5218d ago

Thats insane.
Hope we get to play with u soon

gaffyh5218d ago

You don't select a region do you? I thought it just connects to the worldwide servers?

Kran5218d ago

Almost 3 and a half centuries! :)

ELite_Ghost5218d ago

how do u disagree to comments like this XD?

Shane Kim5218d ago

Hahaha funny comment. Have a bubble :)

DelbertGrady5218d ago

Not to spoil your little party but numbers don't mean anything until you put them in a context. It sounds impressive because it's a big number.

I'll probably get deleted for posting this (comparing to another exclusive flagship shooter title) but here's Halo Reach's numbers after six days, as opposed to Killzone 3 after 14 days:

– 953 Man-years spent in matchmade games

– 1,365 Man-years spent in campaign

Suddenly the Killzone 3 numbers don't sound so impressive.

Simon_Brezhnev5218d ago

but who gives a shit about halo numbers right now. I guess you are what they call the perfect troll.

killcycle5218d ago

Not off topic at all really.

M-Easy5218d ago

How is bringing up Halo in a KZ3 story on topic? The topic is KZ3 NOT Halo derh

CernaML5218d ago

You know what else isn't impressive? The 360's exclusive line up for this year. :V

Fulensenca5218d ago

"Not to spoil your little party but numbers don't mean anything until you put them in a context. It sounds impressive because it's a big number."

Not to spoil? You are here just for that ...

Grow up little kid.

The_Ultimate_Guy5218d ago

@ M-Easy

The topic is numbers. DelbertGrady is just giving you a comparison so you can get a bigger picture how big or small Killzone's numbers are. How can Killzone's number mean anything if they can't be measured? And in order to measure the relevance of Killzone's numbers, you need to be able to compare them to other numbers from other games.

@ CernaML

Looking at the reviews for Sony's big flagship titles that have come out recently, I would say Sony's exclusives are not all that impressive as well.

GT5 - 84
Killzone 3 - 85

I will tell you right now, Gears 3 will be 90+ and Forza 4 will also be 90+.

Mark my words.

ElementX5218d ago

As if Sony fanboys never mention PS3 exclusives in 360 articles.......

No way... this is odd guys. I just said 3 and a half centuries.

Can yall remember what year Killzone is based around? o.O

Around 2357.... almost 3 and a half centuries from our own time. That is freaky :l

Ooo, so if we follow the KZ timeline by 2055 our world will be ravaged? :D

Good Good Killzone 3 is the Best.

PS3 Is The Best >:)

VINNIEPAZ5218d ago (Edited 5218d ago )

Oh look the guy that just cant STFU about PS3 is here. Those Sony checks in the bank yet?

"You STFU we love sony.....SO WAT get over it play some exlusives go away leave us alone"

Ok well I love all my systems, but do I have to go, "I lovz aal mi systemz derp derp!!!11!" EVERY TIME I write a comment?

"Why do you care? Did he say anything about the 360 or Wii? Well no! So why don't you STFU?"

GOOD! I dont care what system you think is the best even if it was 360 or Wii. Its not about that.

"He commented on a PS3 article. What is wrong with that???"

Saying "PS3 is the best" is more than just a comment, its flaim bait and trollish.

This is "THE BEST" for me when I want to play my games ( http://i138.photobucket.com... If you have a lonely entertainment system wit one system on it and are happy then good, but PLEASE stop ramming it down our throats every comment.

Maybe if we stick to talking more about the GAMES and not worrying what system they are on it would be a much better troll free place.

Flashwave_UK5218d ago

You STFU we love sony.....SO WAT get over it play some exlusives go away leave us alone (lolz0

Shane Kim5218d ago (Edited 5218d ago )

Why do you care? Did he say anything about the 360 or Wii? Well no! So why don't you STFU?

/Shane Kim, the unwanted defender of Sony fans

Highlife5218d ago

He commented on a PS3 article. What is wrong with that??? So he should be like you and go into a nintendo article and bitch at all the nintendo comments??

bluwulf5218d ago

I love how people comment on Sony checks...

the saying came from Microsoft sending reviewers $900 dollar swag bags with halo review copies.

Imagine if we spent this much time doing something construtive like well I dont know founding the school for kids who can't read good and wanna Learn to do other stuff good too.

FailOverHero5218d ago

Lol! Unfortunately anthem, unlike us, not everybody has made alot of money from being really really ridiculously good looking. They can't afford that.

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.

FinalFantasyFanatic207d 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.

Storm23207d 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.

lockedongamer1207d ago (Edited 207d 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!

Chocoburger197d 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.

1Victor773d ago

Can’t wait for their next franchise

SullysCigar773d ago

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

jznrpg772d ago

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

badz149772d 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!

Vengeance1138773d 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 Kim773d ago

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

VersusDMC773d 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?

Vengeance1138773d ago

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

solideagle773d 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.

Phoenix76773d 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

thesoftware730773d ago (Edited 773d 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.

blacktiger772d ago

thank you fps lover, I'm with you

talocaca773d ago

Such a wonderful studio. They deserve all their success.

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

OzzY-waZZy773d ago (Edited 773d ago )

Kinda wish they move on from Horizon tbh.

lukasmain773d ago

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

Imalwaysright772d 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

MadLad1524d 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.

Applejack1524d 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_B1524d ago

Even emulators are super simple to use.

jukins1524d 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.

1524d ago
Vegamyster1523d 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.

SinkingSage1523d ago

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

Rachel_Alucard1523d ago (Edited 1523d 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 Kim1524d ago

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

MadLad1523d ago

Did you purposely miss the entire point of my post?

Inverno1523d 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.

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

2 is the better game.

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

Omar3li1523d ago

60fps is peasant for FPS games now
