All sony-developed (+ MGS4) titles is all about true next-gen experience that the 360 will never achieve (goodluck 720). this title is one of them.

thor5645d ago

I've got a good idea of what's in the KZ2 beta now - I've seen each map, each game type, each weapon and now each class. Can't wait to finally play it in February.

superflyguy5644d ago

I wonder how they got HD video recorded from their PS3. They're probably using some expensive equipment.

TheExecutive5645d ago (Edited 5645d ago )

look at the lighting the guns give off in spectator mode. Simply amazing. The ground gives off shadows depending on the surface. simply amazing and the smoke.... good lord.

Kleptic5644d ago (Edited 5644d ago )

there is geometry for certain parts of the ground, like the slightly bigger rocks in saluman market...making the lighting react in such a realistic way...so when you see a strobed dynamic shadow around some of the textures on the ground...its because its a real calculated shadow based on the shape of that rock, or whatever else is creating a shadow...its subtle, but insanely awesome when you think about it...

its funny to read the posts at the source...people saying insanely ignorant stuff like 'there is so much blur to hide poor texture work'...what the feck ever...the blur isn't there if you stand still, and if you are examining the textures, you most likely are not standing still...

Dec 4th...thats the day...thats when we see the real meat of the uncompressed texture streaming for the final release...the beta doesn't do that, everything is compressed...and a lot of media guys are making a big deal out of how great the uncompressed textures look for the final game...

not only that, but the game already has some of the best textures of any console game to date...show me a title with better ground textures than killzone 2, even in this beta...I guarantee you will not find one...not only are the textures fantastic to begin with, but the way they react to lighting is simply incredible...people really need to stop trying to find any real faults with the game...Killzone 2 has done nothing but embarrass the naysayers over the past few weeks...and its not going to stop any time soon...

I'm drooling in antecipation

Timesplitter145645d ago (Edited 5645d ago )

1- What? There are vehicles (tactician gameplay)? Tell me more please! I didn't know that! (ok it's a bot... well that's also cool)

2- Awesome! Engineers can place turrets!

3- All the guns feel simply amazing

4- Graphics and effects are incredible

There's just something about that game that looks incredibly awesome

thor5645d ago

Yeah you can't drive vehicles in MP unfortunately. But that's the tactician's secondary ability to call in air support.

The graphics will look better than this it has been stated. The beta is quite an old build and they've improved the graphics, the balance of the gameplay, and of course there will be more maps and matchmaking options in the final release.

Ju5644d ago

What's with that guy in that plane then ? Is that just a airsupport unit or why is there a name tag on it ?

thor5644d ago

The name tag says something like "xxxx's bot" - meaning it was called in by xxxx but it's AI controlled.

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.
