Killzone 2's ten second TV advert…

Following on from our story Killzone 2's marketing budget TSA can give you the TV teaser for what is shaping up to be a serious contender for the big game of 2009, Killzone 2. It's nice and menacing, with plenty of horror trailer tropes to get you scurrying behind the sofa, only to peek back at the TV while you pre-order your copy…

Htf are people supposed to know what the game is about in 10 seconds?

Qbanboi5566d ago (Edited 5566d ago )

Wow, that was.... short. But hey, it's better than nothing.

Tell em, this is like the shortest thing ever. you didn't even see the action.......... ... Sony if there is more, you better be showing the complete AD campaign....

10 Secs WTF :|

Hockey115566d ago

I believe it is just a preview of the commercial.

Trollimite5566d ago

that looks kind of fake to me. im jus saying.

Ghoul5566d ago

It's called a "Teaser" not advert.

A Teaser is made to tease people to research about the name to build up hype. Oh and a Teaser is almost everytime followed by a real advert some days/weeks later

Sony Rep5566d ago

Sony did this with their holiday '08 advertisements. This isn't the full ad. It's teasers that lead up to the full ads.

Pennywise5566d ago

Ghoul... thank you, I feel like I am going crazy reading these comments.

Click the link or at least read the description before you guys start talking.

Timberland2K95566d ago

if this is all they are doing to show the game. SCEA needs to see some fugging tips from microsoft.

If i was too see this game on tv for the first time i would say.

"Ok, cool looking guys with Red Eyes"

Were is the gameplay. Show that ticking bomb that I love. Show the Electricity gun

i hate repeating myself

"It's called a "Teaser" not advert.

btw halo did the same so CUT THE FANBOY CRAP

A Teaser is there to make you interested to TEASE you not to explain anything, a teaser only shows you short frames of the product, to rais your interest. like "Wtf, killzone 2 ? hmm heard of that looks interesting" and THEN you release the commercial.

you dont have to be a rocket scientist to know that. linguistic abilitys and the word "teaser" should be enough......

whoelse5566d ago

It annoys me when people comment without even reading the article.

It's called a 'Teaser'!

Google 'Teaser' for more info...

Timberland2K95566d ago

Nobody is on any fanboy crap im a ps3 fan not fanboy.

I didn't realize it was a teaser not ad.

take a deep breath for crying out loud.
I just really think sony needs to let out the boatload of Killzone 2 ads

na2ru15566d ago

since they are the coolest looking things on a game to date. This definitely would have got me curious about WTH this Killzone 2s about IF I NEVER HEARD OF IT.

Then the hands on impression will be more compelling and breath taking

acedoh5566d ago

Does exactly what it's supposed to and that is tease the audience. Some will go what the heck is this? Others will know it's Killzone 2 and get excited enough to pre-order. Ad's like this build hype and it's a lot more effective since it costs much less than a 30 second ad. They can almost flood their market and get people excited. I am sure this will get a lot of buzz going...

prowiew5566d ago

Huh. Did I miss something?

NickIni5566d ago

10 seconds is long for an advert anyway.

Arkrite5565d ago (Edited 5565d ago )

This is not fake I've seen the ad on Sky sports news last night (16th Feb) in the UK

u got owned5565d ago (Edited 5565d ago )

I'm sorry Sony but i think this teaser is weak. Teasers are supposed to make you want to know what is it, to pick your brain, to make you want more, not to show just some images. This doesn't do anything for me.

kharma455565d ago

Yeah it's no fake, it was on TV last night, see the video I've attached that I recorded.

I thought this was just going to be a teaser, didn't think they'd use that trailer on the actual TV, unless there is another advert to come later.

Marquis_de_Sade5565d ago

I like adverts like that, you see it and need to know more.

Joey Greco RULES5565d ago

that WAS nothing.
might as well just put a copy of the game and a ps3 onscreen together, and in big bold letters under that---BUY US.

evrfighter5565d ago

if this was meant to tease...

OmarJA5566d ago

Only a retarded xbot like PP or GiantEnemyLobster would disagree with you...

Sony Rep5566d ago

I agree. Awesome teaser ad.

Zeus Lee5566d ago

Btw does anyone know what the Marketing Budget for Killzone 2 is?

Ghoul5566d ago

its FAAAR more expect around 10 million+

its 2 million pounds only for uk
http://www.rewiredmind.com/...

u got owned5565d ago

Agree Ghoul. Its hopefully around 10 or more, because 2 Millions is nothing for a Marketing campaign.

PirateThom5566d ago

To me that looks like a "teaser ad". I've seen things like this a few times, during breaks it'll show those length of ads randomly, then show a fuller ad in the same break slot.

That's supposed to pique your interest so when the full ad hits, questions are answered.

If that's the full ad... epic failure.

Awesome Possum5566d ago

Like the gatorade G commercials.

Sitdown5566d ago

10 seconds?...if not, for some reason it felt like it. Those are good ads....even though at first, I thought it was a Nike commercial. The reason why, is that I assume that was lil wayne saying what G was....and then Lil Wayne was in that Lebron James commercial...the candy man one.

Another example would be the Lebron James insurance commercial...were before the superbowl they would show him at the press conference...then after the superbowl they showed the rest of it.

Anyhow...last point...how big have the Jabbawokies become in the media since there win on MTV.

tonytouchx5566d ago

is a sneek peek,is not the whole ad.

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-ro67d ago

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

darthv7267d 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_67d ago

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

Cacabunga67d ago

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

Profchaos67d ago (Edited 67d 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

seanpitt2367d 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!

Iceball200067d ago

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

Father__Merrin67d ago

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

InUrFoxHole67d ago

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

Marcus Fenix67d ago

A Resistance reboot will be awesome

Michiel198967d ago

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

1Victor67d ago (Edited 67d 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 😱

Michiel198967d ago

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

SullysCigar371d ago

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

1Victor371d ago

Can’t wait for their next franchise

SullysCigar371d ago

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

jznrpg371d ago

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

badz149371d 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!

Vengeance1138371d 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 Kim371d ago

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

VersusDMC371d 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?

Vengeance1138371d ago

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

solideagle371d 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.

Phoenix76371d 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

REDGUM371d ago

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

thesoftware730371d ago (Edited 371d 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.

blacktiger371d ago

thank you fps lover, I'm with you

talocaca371d ago

Such a wonderful studio. They deserve all their success.

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

OzzY-waZZy371d ago (Edited 371d ago )

Kinda wish they move on from Horizon tbh.

potatoseal371d ago

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

Imalwaysright371d 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."

shinoff2183743d ago

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

shinoff2183743d 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.
