Killzone 2 Beta Invites Being Sent to US PS Underground members

A member of US Playstation Underground posted at NeoGAF that he has just received his Killzone 2 Beta invite.

Megaton5696d ago (Edited 5696d ago )

I just got one, nearly shat my pants. Downloading in anticipation now.

TheHater5696d ago (Edited 5696d ago )

hope I get one
edit: Are you from Europe or form the State?

Winter47th5696d ago (Edited 5696d ago )

Spread the word, have as many players as possible enjoy this masterpiece.

P.S. uh...wanna share? :)

Megaton5696d ago

Nice catch Marceles. lol @ Tranny Surprise.

Where did you hear it's sharable? I didn't see that in the email I received.

MrWonderful5696d ago

I seen that it was sharable on a post in another killzone story on here

Marceles5696d ago

It's shareable as in, you won't get booted for 24 hours for sharing it after 5 people use it, but Sony never advertises sharing anything. Code sharing is alot less risky, but account info with your email and password is overboard. But honestly you can still be banned from sharing your code, so only share it only if you don't care (which obviously won't be the case if you're sane) or you're willing to risk not playing if you want your buddies to hop in a game with you.

MUGEN5696d ago

PM me if anyone wants to trade a killzone 2 beta code for 1 or 2 little big planet beta code/s.

mikeslemonade5696d ago

This is BS I'm in the G.A.P, the Underground, the RLS, and I also tied my PSN name to the Underground and I still don't have it.

Cenobia5696d ago

I don't understand how Playstation Underground even works. The only thing I've ever gotten from them is junk mail. For example, every week I get a list of whats on the PS Store, and I just got a reminder that buying R2 early gets me in the beta.

What do you have to do to get invites like this? Just luck?

morganfell5696d ago (Edited 5696d ago )

People that hate Sony are not being allowed in. Especially those that have made a career on N4G of being anti-Sony.

Megaton5696d ago

I'm in G.A.P, but I've only been a member for a few months. Don't know if there's any particular criteria other than just being a PS Underground member. My PS3 is registered at the site and I have the first Killzone listed among my PS2 games, if that counts for anything (but I doubt it does). Probably just a purely random draw.

Just played a 32-man match. Really fun.

Oh and to the people PMing me, sorry guys, my account info goes to no one, not even the people I know in person. If the code itself is in-fact sharable, I have enough real-life friends who own PS3's and would love it. I'm sure you'd do the same.

mikeslemonade5696d ago

How much better does this game look better than COD4? Don't go "way better". I want details!

IzKyD13315696d ago

lmfao tranny surprise....looks like the guy who posted the pic on neogaf is a freak.....

Megaton5696d ago (Edited 5696d ago )

1.16 - The graphics are noticeably better than Call of Duty 4, or any other current console game for that matter, to put it simply. I'd get more specific but the NDA police would come and take my PS3 away.

DNAgent5696d ago

It doesn't seem like they would be sending invites around this time.

In any case, i'm not hyped at all for this game seeing as how the last game was a flop. This one only showed that it has better graphics but the gameplay looks the same for the most part. I think I will just buy Resistance 2 for my FPS game.

Panthers5696d ago

I dont know what your seeing. This game looks awesome. Gameplay seems tight and on par with the best shooters out there.

Frnicatr5696d ago

The last game was a flop? o_O
How do you figure?

juuken5696d ago

The last one wasn't a flop. The last one had a smaller development team, and didn't live up to the hype. That doesn't mean the game sucked. Now that Sony is working with Guerrilla on this one, I think it's going to kick ass.

jonnyfivealive5696d ago

I wish I could judge your opinion but seeing as I never played one but I wouldn't expect it to play the same because to me it seems like they made this game from scratch and put back things in the game that worked in one and changing things that didn't work in one and made it look extra awesome

TheTimeDoctor5696d ago

they may not have a beta code for you, but Sony has offered you a complimentary box of tissues. enjoy!

Fanboy Slaughter5696d ago

On the G.A.P. anyway, but I did get in the Home Beta...Last May with the first wave.

Got 2 LBP codes also, so when this one's up on the 12th, I got one more go around.

Jamegohanssj55696d ago

Yeah, well I won't need those tissues as I will be cool about it.

PlayStation 3 Games That Desperately Need a PS5 Remaster

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!!

Rude-ro66d ago

I played killzone 3 in 3d and it really changed the game per being immersive.
In vr, that would be even more awesome.

darthv7266d ago

Funny you mention that... my son wanted to play some PS3 games in 3d on my PS tv and he was blown away by how good KZ3 was. It really was a great addition to the game. Im surprised there have not been more 3d games from that era being ported to the PSVR/VR2.

_SilverHawk_66d ago

resistance 1-3, killzone 1-3, uncharted 1-3, uncharted golden abyss, folklore, socom 4 , motorstorm, twisted metal, MAG, heavenly sword

Cacabunga66d ago

Killzone 2+3
Sly Thieves in Time
Crack in Time
God of War Ascension
Motorstorm
Modnation racer
Infamous 1+2

Profchaos66d ago (Edited 66d ago )

Killzone trilogy in VR would be amazing bonus points if they offer shadow fall.

There was a psvr1 Killzone project that supermassive was working on at one stage which wasn't up to scratch and Sony brand it back in house I was hoping we would see that on psvr2 eventually.

Personally I'd love to see some more love or acknowledgement of psvr2 from Sony in general it was a expensive headset and Sony barely acknowledge it's existence

seanpitt2366d ago

The amount of work needed to remaster these games wouldn't be beneficial on a financial and business sense.. MGS4 would probably be the best bet as it would need the least amount of work!

Iceball200066d ago

YEAAASSSSS! I miss this franchise and wanna play it so bad again.

Father__Merrin66d ago

The time is perfect for a resistance fall of man game campaign coop multiplayer

InUrFoxHole66d ago

The resistance series is str8 trash to me. Socom 3 I would welcome. Or killzone MP.

Marcus Fenix66d ago

A Resistance reboot will be awesome

Michiel198966d ago

That's what Bungie should make, Ill keep saying it until it happens

1Victor66d ago (Edited 66d ago )

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 😱

Michiel198966d ago

Resistance was the best co-op fps I ever played after L4D2

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

1Victor370d ago

Can’t wait for their next franchise

SullysCigar370d ago

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

jznrpg370d ago

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

badz149370d 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!

Vengeance1138370d 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 Kim370d ago

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

VersusDMC370d 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?

Vengeance1138370d ago

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

solideagle370d 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.

Phoenix76370d 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

REDGUM370d ago

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

thesoftware730370d ago (Edited 370d 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.

blacktiger370d ago

thank you fps lover, I'm with you

talocaca370d ago

Such a wonderful studio. They deserve all their success.

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

OzzY-waZZy370d ago (Edited 370d ago )

Kinda wish they move on from Horizon tbh.

potatoseal370d ago

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

Imalwaysright370d ago

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

Top 20 Best PlayStation 3 Games (20-11)

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."

shinoff2183742d ago

No ps3 is not retro. I dont even consider ps2 era retro. All imo.

shinoff2183742d ago

Typically, the term retro is given to items which are at least 20 years old (but not yet 40 years old).

Quick google search

badz149742d ago

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.
