Ars Technica writes: "'F*** that sh*t,' exclaimed Sony Computer Entertainment Europe's Stuart Tilley as I played through the single-player Killzone 2 demo at Sony's private E3 meeting room. The words came in response to my questioning of the shooter's potential inclusion of old-school corridor shooter mechanics like on-rails vehicular sections. "Killzone 2 is about grabbing a gun and kicking f***ing ass," he continued. "Oh, and doing it with a game that's just beautiful to look at."
Killzone 2 is a lot like Gears of War: it's a beautiful game that is the epitome of its genre in one tight package. At its core, it's simply an extremely polished version of the same games we've been playing for so long. And while Killzone 2 certainly looks amazing in motion-Tilley made a point of saying that the game's developers in Geurilla had definitely silenced the naysayers of the original trailer-it's still, at its core, just another FPS."
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!!
The time is perfect for a resistance fall of man game campaign coop multiplayer
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 😱
The Amsterdam-based studio reflects on its humble beginnings, beloved franchises, and growth through the years.
Up there with the top tier in the industry. Love Guerrilla Games - Horizon Burning Shores is simply STUNNING.
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
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.
Such a wonderful studio. They deserve all their success.
The Decima Engine is absolute 🔥 I'm just mad they have abandoned Killzone.
Alex DS. from Link Cable Gaming writes: "Is the PlayStation 3 retro? This is a surprisingly hard question to answer as the system definitely has the age to be considered retro, having launched in 2006, over 15 years ago now. But with it being home to so many massive games, many of which still hold up today and in fact were released for the PlayStation 4 when that console was released, make the PS3 a retro console that doesn’t feel retro."
Typically, the term retro is given to items which are at least 20 years old (but not yet 40 years old).
Quick google search
No the PS3 is not yet a retro console. But if you're gonna put 1 game from a series in this list, then LBP2 should be there instead of the original, Motorstorm PR is also an overall better game than the 1st game and to put Tools of Destruction over A Crack in Time is a blasphemy when ACiT is the best game in the series.
So is Halo... nuff said
how they can say its just another first person shooter with the new first person cover system that has never been done before in a fps game, the hit response system,this game has a lot more to offer than just graphics.
I have to say, I wasn't thinking the game was looking that great graphically, until I saw it yesterday in that hands-on demo. I can't pinpoint what exactly change, but it really got me excited to play it now, and the online stuff sounds great.
I would rather play "just another FPS" than pretend to play music with Wii Music. It takes many genre to please everyone, don't take our FPS away.
What do you want? Was Halo 3 just another FPS? All it was was Halo 2.5 with Forge.
Did he preview Gears 2? Is that just another TPS?
And what was so "innovative" about GTA4? That game wasn't even as good as San Andreas if you ask me.
These people drive me crazy when they place and project their own expectations for what a game should be into their reviews/previews and not take a game for what it is.
Killzone 2 doesn't have to be the FPS to end all FPSs. It just needs to be fun in all aspects. Gears is fun as hell. Halo is fun as hell. Warhawk is fun as hell. That's all that really matters in the end.
