What Gamers Want for the Week of 11-11-13

Entertainment Buddha writes, "This week marks the beginning of the next generation of console video games thanks to the release of the PS4 on November 15th. With that being said it’s safe to say that this week’s new release lineup will definitely be PS4 heavy, so if you’re planning to make the next-gen jump your wallet better be stacked full of straight cash homie.

Before listing all of the new PS4 titles we’d like to point out that there are a few current generation and PC games coming out this week. Two Brothers leads the way with its release on PC, Mac, and Linux. XCOM: Enemy Within is releasing for the PS3 and Xbox 360, while The Bridge is releasing for the 360 only."

So who's taking the PS4 plunge at midnight? If so, what games are you getting with the console?

C-H-E-F3829d ago (Edited 3829d ago )

Me me me.. hey @Hamm3r pick me... lOl
but uhm Knack, Killzone, nba 2k14. I'll be getting bf4 later after they patch that mess up. how about you? Also, feel free to add me psn is the same as my user name here :D.

Edit: Everything else I want is F2p lol so yeah.

HAMM3RofBUDDHA3829d ago

Starting slow with just Killzone: Shadow Fall and a few of the F2P. May grab Knack right after Killzone.

C-H-E-F3829d ago

@HAMM3R
Yeah, I think i'm going to play Killzone all of release night (Single Player), so I can download the f2p games in the background that I want and then crack open Knack and 2k on the OFFICIAL release day (friday). If I see you around i'll let you know how Knack is, I'm getting it just to support Cerny and his studio :D.

Ares84HU3829d ago

I'm just hoping that Amazon will honor their promise on release day delivery and UPS will deliver it early during the day and not their usual 6-7pm.

Already got Killzone Shadow Fall and CoD Ghosts for the PS4. Will be getting FIFA 14, Battlefield 4 and ACIV:BF.

Killzone After a Decade in Hibernation

It's been 10 years since Killzone: Shadow Fall arrived for PlayStation 4 early adopters, and there's no sign of another sequel.

Obscure_Observer173d ago

Sadly it was dumped by Guerrilla to focus on Horizon games only. Mainline, VR and Multiplayer.

Vengeance1138172d ago

lmao sadly? Are you pretending to have actually played the series lol Sorry bud, no Killzone on Xbox.

Cacabunga172d ago

With the downfall of COD and BF, Killzone def. has a chance to make a groundbreaking comeback

What a low-functioning reply here typical of the fanboy N4G community.

Rimeskeem172d ago

“Dumped”

I think it’s called moving on.

Barlos172d ago (Edited 172d ago )

They brought out 4 main games and 2 spin offs: one on PSP and one on Vita. That's a decent run for any series. I also understand that Shadow Fall wasn't a success commercially despite it coming out at PS4 launch, and as a big Killzone fan even I couldn't get into it, so I think Sony/Guerrilla could see it was time to move on.

Don't get me wrong, I'd love another Killzone game in the vein of KZ2 but it's just not happening. Hell, I'd even take a remake or remaster of the first 3 games.

I'd hardly say it was "dumped" though, it spanned 3 console generations and 2 handheld generations.

@obscured:”Sadly it was dumped by Guerrilla to focus on Horizon games only. Mainline, VR and Multiplayer”

Happily it was dumped by Guerrilla to focus on Horizon games only. Mainline, VR and Multiplayer( edited to reflect the writer true feelings and allegiance)
Kill zone was a FPS far ahead of its glitched competitors with nauseating bad camera angles, 10 years old screaming curses like a drunk sailor and bot aiming assist.

ChasterMies172d ago

“Sadly”?

The Horizon games were among the best games of all time. Killzone Shadowfail wasn’t.

Shane Kim171d ago

True, but damn the memories of KZ2 multiplayer. Still no MP as fun as that to this date.

Mr_cheese172d ago

Dumped and shelved are two different things

Tacoboto172d ago

And Sony as a whole dumped the FPS genre so they wouldn't have products competing with COD and (until purchase) Destiny.

GoodGuy09172d ago

I loved the KZ2+3 campaigns and MP in 2. There could be so much more done with the franchise. Horizon although good, I wish they'd go back to this wonderful IP. Take a break from Horizon please.

Flawlessmic172d ago

Agreed dude, I would absolutely love a reboot of the series, one can only hope that either resistance or killzone makes a return.

Have nothing but great memories, especially of the first 3 games, but all 4 were show stoppers graphically.

blackbeld172d ago

To making it a successful reboot they have to change that buttons layout! Make it playable like the cod button layout. Otherwise I’ll skipping it again.

Rynxie172d ago

And that's the reason why many fps games failed. Instead of being original and catering to it's fans, they tried to make it like cod. No, kz doesn't need cod button layout. It needs to be like it was on kz2 or balanced liked kz3.

Lightning77172d ago

I think Kill Zone would do great in Sony's LS push. As well as MAG reboot and bring back Resistance into LS.

Sharky231171d ago

@Lightning77

I think WarHawk would have been a great Live service game.

thorstein172d ago

Killzone games were so polished. The gameplay was just simple joy. MP was one of the best experiences.

I remember KZ3, just staring at how awesome they animated the water and then getting wasted because of it.

P_Bomb172d ago

It’s been a decade? Now I’m sad.

LiViNgLeGaCY171d ago

I hear ya bud. We're due for a revival.

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

1Victor363d ago

Can’t wait for their next franchise

SullysCigar363d ago

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

jznrpg362d ago

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

badz149362d 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!

Vengeance1138363d 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 Kim363d ago

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

VersusDMC363d 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?

Vengeance1138363d ago

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

solideagle363d 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.

Phoenix76363d 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

REDGUM362d ago

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

thesoftware730363d ago (Edited 363d 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.

blacktiger362d ago

thank you fps lover, I'm with you

talocaca363d ago

Such a wonderful studio. They deserve all their success.

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

OzzY-waZZy363d ago (Edited 363d ago )

Kinda wish they move on from Horizon tbh.

potatoseal362d ago

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

Imalwaysright362d ago

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