3:We have been told Uncharted 2 will "at times use 100% of the ps3s power, same with killzone 2, will GOW 3 TOP both of these games use of power? Will it use all of the cores?
4:We have seen that Sonys big titles each have fairly good home support.. will GOW3?
PS: we were told by a killzone 2 dev at least 2 weeeks ago that "soon" we would see killzone 2 ads everywhere… well its really getting late.. sony needs to be advertising NOW like YESTERDAY..

I can't wait to see the TV add :)

*sigh* you really need to learn what the term "advertise" means and what it can do for your business portfolio. EPIC FAIL that there has been no Killzone 2 commercials yet promoting the game and the pre-order demo. FAIL, FAIL, FAIL. Time for you to man up Sony. Yes, you have 1.1 million pre-orders in EU (supposedly), what about NA? The only region you are truly getting KILLED in by the 360? Shooter-happy NA where you weren't able to make a break-through with R2 thanks to your emphasis on actors and art over the freaking GAME!

Time to put out an ad. Time to focus on THE GAME. Time to leave art in the dust and start focusing on the product, sales...Killzone 2 is too good to get a shoddy ad treatment foobs!

PataponKnight5568d ago (Edited 5568d ago )

The only thing that is an EPIC FAIL is your lamea$$ whiney baby rant.

RPG Guy5568d ago (Edited 5568d ago )

Thanks PataponKnight. Another PRIME example of how any anti-Sony comment on this site, no matter how OBVIOUS it is, gets any member of this site freaking bashed. YOU SUCK.

Look, honestly, any freaking N4G member no more than partially blind can tell ya that the biggest reason given by both Sony haters AND Sony lovers for PS3s iffy numbers is marketting. And so I bash them for one of the most obvious issues stated by both fans and countless articles posted here from actual credible sources, and morons like you come after me.

DID YOU NOT SEE THAT I SAID THEY NEED TO DO IT FOR THE FACT THAT THE GAME IS FREAKING AWESOME!!! God you Sony masterbaiters need to read entire comments. F'n retards. Can't play both sides of the fence on N4Sony Fanboys anymore.

EDIT: Hey look! PataponKnight! Someone else saying similar things:

"I swear...Sony's Marketing team are just a bunch of free loading potheads.(much like myself) But they don't do a damn thing and they still get their weekly paychecks.

Wish they would just get fired.Let some of those talented people who make clips on Youtube and gametrailers do the commercials."

- ThatCanadianGuy420

A fellow Canadian who obviously isn't as F'n retarded as you.

Here's some more F*cktard:

"Wow their just now getting ads out? I figured there were already some and I just wasn't seeing them. "

-GhostMutation

Why don't you go call them lameass and whiney for saying the obvious. What? Cause they don't have an f'n Star Ocean advatar? Maybe cause they're not as obvious supporters of BOTH consoles as I am?

Another EDIT: I suggest reading Trebius down a few comments PataponKnight. Might open your eyes and mind to the obvious flaws of your God, Sony.

Alcon5568d ago

2million pounds budget for all Europe? Thats not really a lot...

Shoduke5568d ago

How many videogames do you see get advertised on TV 3 WEEKS before it's RELEASE? Even Halo 3 (possibly biggest launch EVER) only started advertising on air less than 3 weeks before launch. It would be a huge waste of money to advertise a video game 3 weeks before it's launch, let alone it's demo.

Dumbass

heyheyhey5568d ago

@Alcon

not for the whole of Europe... just the UK

cryymoar5568d ago

How many commercials have you ever made for your video games?
How many best selling consoles have you ever made?
How many best selling games have you ever made?
Have you ever helped pull an entire country out of post-war hardships?

No. You don't know what's best for Sony, only Sony knows what's best for Sony.

Oh, and Sony ISN'T getting killed in NA. Also remember that the market isn't about NA only. Is that why all you can talk about IS NA? Ha, because that's all that matters to you xbox kids.

PataponKnight5568d ago (Edited 5568d ago )

RPG Guy cry me a river will ya. You've clearly taken some random comment to heart and are overrecting. I just responded in that manner to your comment because I'm tired of everybody trying to play financial advisor for a multi-billion dollar company. Sony didn't get to where they are listening to nobodies like you.

Amen Apena.

CrazzyMan5568d ago (Edited 5568d ago )

RPG GUY - why do you even care???

Over 3,5 mln. Resistance 1 in 2 years.
Around 1,5 mln. Resistance 2 in 3 months.
Around 4,5 mln. MGS4 in half a year.
Over 2 mln. LBP in 3 months.
Over 3,5 mln. Motorstorm in 2 years.
Around 1,5 mln. Motorostorm:PR in 3 months.
Over 2,5 mln. Uncharted in 1 year.

What else do you want?

Mr_Miyagi5568d ago (Edited 5568d ago )

Fact #1 Sony has done an absolute lousy job at marketing the PS3.

Fact #2 Marketing is information therefore NO marketing = no information which in the end transitions to no sale.

Fact #3 There are 10's of millions of consumers out there that still have no idea wtf Killzone 2 is... Hell, let alone what the PS3 actually does other than play Blu-ray DVD's and Video games.

Fact #4 I'm tired of getting bashed by my 360 friends trying to make the sale for SONY myself. Quit relying on people like myself to convince consumers to buy the damn thing because Im out numbered 10-1 out here in the states. Unless you want to start cutting me a check for advertising for you.

RPG Guy5568d ago (Edited 5568d ago )

How many games get advertised three weeks before release? Try GTAIV, hell even Lost Planet got that treatment. Why deny it? Cause Sony's exclusive (most of which I've bought) have sold SOOOOOOOOO well in comparison. Give it a break. Where's all that R2 sales data that was supposed to compete with Gears 2 hmmmm????

I can't wait to play Killzone 2 and MOST OF ALL YOU BLIND, DUMB F'N DROIDS, I want the game to SUCCEED! What the F do you not understand about my posts....*sigh*

And with that, I'll just give it up. Hard to get through to you savage fanboys on N4Sony-Droids

I'll just see you all online in KZ2 come the end of the month and put out some punishment then for being fanboys. Till then, I'll enjoy my PS360 gaming that doesn't limit me to waiting and bickering till the next exclusive you'll play for a couple hours *cough Heavenly Sword* *cough, Ninja Gaiden II* *cough 5-6 hours* to come out.

Bye droids.

p.s. Apena.....*sigh* worldwide for Sony = good. 2:1 holidays for 2 straight years in NA = bad. Nope, not killed at all....idiot. And Shoduke...how many $30-40 million budget products (movies or games) released just after the Superbowl DON'T advertise during the game...hmm, that would be 3 or more weeks before it's release. Missed opportunity....hmmm. Maybe? Idiot.

RPG guy, I don't know who ran over your cat but you need to calm down.

You're going a bit too far with this console war...

snipermk05568d ago

DNAgent5568d ago

They have been advertising. MGS4, LBP, & Resistance 2 all had commercials.

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.

OtterX61d ago (Edited 61d ago )

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-ro61d ago

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

darthv7261d 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_61d ago

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

Cacabunga60d ago

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

Profchaos60d ago (Edited 60d 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

seanpitt2360d 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!

Iceball200061d ago

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

Father__Merrin61d ago

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

InUrFoxHole61d ago

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

Marcus Fenix61d ago

A Resistance reboot will be awesome

Michiel198961d ago

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

1Victor61d ago (Edited 61d 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 😱

Michiel198961d ago

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

SullysCigar365d ago

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

1Victor365d ago

Can’t wait for their next franchise

SullysCigar365d ago

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

jznrpg364d ago

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

badz149364d 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!

Vengeance1138365d 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 Kim365d ago

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

VersusDMC365d 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?

Vengeance1138365d ago

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

solideagle365d 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.

Phoenix76365d 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

REDGUM364d ago

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

thesoftware730365d ago (Edited 365d 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.

blacktiger364d ago

thank you fps lover, I'm with you

talocaca365d ago

Such a wonderful studio. They deserve all their success.

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

OzzY-waZZy365d ago (Edited 365d ago )

Kinda wish they move on from Horizon tbh.

potatoseal365d ago

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

Imalwaysright365d 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."

shinoff2183736d ago

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

shinoff2183736d 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

badz149736d 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.
