Killzone 2 ads played at the Cinemas

Watch the new Killzone 2 ad played at the Cinemas. It is played before the movies and during intermission. They are played in Sena cinemas in Iceland.

TheColbertinator5565d ago

Advertising in Iceland? Well its a start I suppose

Helghast Slayer5565d ago

They need to release the Ballet of Deaf trailer in Australian cinemas. Heck they need to show it around the damn world.

LeonSKennedy4Life5565d ago

The Ballet of Death trailer looks terrible! It makes the blood look fake, the character models follow a pre-rendered path, and they could have picked better orchestral music.

trancefreak5564d ago

Im glad you guys new it was iceland because i had no idea what the hell I was looking @ besides it being kz2.

Sevir045565d ago

They should show this game at some spring block buster movie

N4Sony5565d ago

It's over. Sony has now officially won this generation of console wars. To break through the glass ceiling and advertise in Icelandic movie theatres is something DAMN impressive.

The logic here is undeniable. We have 1.1 million pre-orders in Europe, so we'll keep advertising in Europe instead of trying to reach out to shooter-happy, PS3-avoiding NA gamers to try and expand our market. BRILLIANT!

It's over, pack it in 360, you've lost!

Awesome Possum5565d ago

They really should do this in america.

Qbanboi5565d ago

This Ads is 10 times better than the other one. They should show this one instead.

himdeel5565d ago

...a SINGLE advertisement for Killzone 2 on tv. SONY really does suck at marketing their games. Even my grandmother knew the Gears 2 commmercial when she saw it. Her exact words were, "Is that Gears game part of some new army commercial because I don't think those boys were real."

CaseyRyback_CPO5565d ago (Edited 5565d ago )

Last time I checked, isn't Iceland in Europe?
Which would include Iceland pre orders..
Or do we need to thank you for pointing out that you think Europe is just England?

Not sure..

Would you suggest sony not advertise in Europe, or..What exactly are you trying to say?

Travel more.

I'd imagine sony has an entire globe to worry about advertising. EU seems to have more pre-orders than the USA.. theres 1 commercial you have to run for the USA.. there are many regions in the EU that you have to run em for..

Why hate on icelandic movies.. when those folks probably pre-ordered the game?

acedoh5564d ago

of their better trailers. I would like to see it here in America. Simple yet intense. Sells the game very well...

GameGambits5564d ago

That was decent. It's a step up from LBP and Resistance 2 commercials. I ended up seeing commercials for Dead Space before movies back when it was released in 2008 and that was great to see! The twinkle twinkle little star AD they had and it was really well done.

f7897905564d ago

I do not believe they have brains. I love my ps3 but seriously who the F%^@ came up with those launch commercials?! All they have to do to advertise Killzone 2 is play the first seconds of the intro then show a bunch of explosions. That's it.

They need to do this in USA

XGRaViSmOrSX5565d ago

they need to actually show something. i havent seen a single thing for KZ2 in the US at ALL.

sony is in the failbot for getting the word out there on good games, no wonder all their AAA games dont sell well. im starting to hate sony a bit w/ all this bullshit. its as if they want to fail miserably this gen.

Ju5565d ago

Guys you are to negative. What makes you think it won't be available in the US. Because, uhm, it is in English ? With subtitles ? Can only be a good sign, they cover Iceland. I mean, it won't be the ONLY country they play that ad.

Aclay5565d ago

If Sony is going to advertise Killzone 2 at a Movie Theater, they should advertise it before the showing of Watchmen, because that's the biggest movie coming out just a week after KZ2. I've seen Sony PS3 advertisements in a Theater before, and a KZ2 ad before a big blockbuster movie like Watchmen would be a very smart idea if Sony follows through with it.

I don't know when the heck Sony is going to start TV Ad's for KZ2 in the U.S., but I'm guessing it'll be during the week that KZ2 releases.

PtRoLLFacE5565d ago

the only game i ever saw playing an add on theaters was halo 2, but is good to know that sony is marketing killzone 2, it will help them a lot in sales

WhittO5565d ago

Ive seen loads of ps3 ads in the cinema, Motorstorm PC, Resistance 2, Singstar (lol), Buzz.

Wish they would advertise good games lol, like MGS4 or Uncharted instead of Buzz and Singstar!!

But guess they are trying to lure the casual audience.

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-ro65d ago

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

darthv7265d 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_65d ago

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

Cacabunga65d ago

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

Profchaos65d ago (Edited 65d 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

seanpitt2365d 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

Michiel198965d 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 😱

Michiel198965d 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?!

jznrpg369d ago

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

badz149369d 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.

Phoenix76369d 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

REDGUM369d 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.

blacktiger369d 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.

potatoseal369d ago

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

Imalwaysright369d 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."

shinoff2183741d ago

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

shinoff2183741d 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

badz149741d 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.
