Killzone 2 Multiplayer Better Than Halo 3?

V4vg.com"Most of us have delivered their verdict on Killzone 2, with seemingly positive reviews the game seems to be on the desired track for its 27th February release. We finally got the option of trying our hands on the multiplayer component for a couple of hours and found it much more robust and more challenging than Halo 3's multiplayer component, which seemed to lag behind quite a bit when it came up against the diverse options that Killzone 2 laid out in front of our plate."

hands down better then Galo 3

DavidMacDougall5563d ago

The people on the ps3 are older and smarter, there for the gameplay works better

ali3125563d ago

ha ha ha that was funny ' Galo 3 '

Sasanova5563d ago

dont forget, all those reviews on metacritic are single player campaign reviews only, with a few exceptions. most people reviewed the games multiplayer from looking at the videos and talk online, which doesnt come close to the actual experience so do your self a favor and every review you see boost it up couple of notches because they have no clue what multiplayer is like unless you played the beta...the game is to die for

sonarus5563d ago (Edited 5563d ago )

Comparing the multiplayer is dumb imo. KZ2 is a sort of COD4 style shooter. And though a lot of people prefer COD4 style an equal amount of people will tell you Halo 3 is funner. They aren't really the same style, Halo has more robust features, Killzone 2 is more realistic. All in all it boils down to personal preference.

As for my personal preference i would have to say KZ2 because i hate the 50 foot jumping and shooting. But if we were to judge them in general KZ2, has better graphics, more players and bots and let me NOT forget awesome class system. Halo 3 has far more features and its more customizable, has vehicles and very open Maps. Its pretty much tie both are good multiplayers.

A lot will depend on GG community support but even though Halo 3 is almost 2yrs old it still gets MASSIVE playtime on XBox Live. I wonder if we can say that about KZ2 in 2yrs

Kaliumhest5563d ago (Edited 5563d ago )

Killzone 2 will hopefully be just as good as Cod 4. Possibly better.

But it will definately be better than Halo 3.

Blademask5563d ago

Why do these idiots have to throw KZ2 at EVERYTHING. No one is saying "OK NOW THAT THIS GAME IS OUT WE ALL MUST BUY IT AND STOP PLAYING THE OTHER" NO G Dit NO.

The only thing KZ2 has done was:

- Show that the PS3 hardware is capable of things that are impossible otherwise
- Bring a good FPSw/Good Online.

Thats all GG/SOny promised, they delivered.. thats it. There are many more games coming down the pipe other than KZ2, and i feel like with the lack of anything exciting on the 360 side, we are going to get a nonstop retard fest of PS3 Exclusives vs (The Kitchen Sink)

"We finally got the option of trying our hands on the multiplayer component for a couple of hours and found it much more ROBUST and more challenging than Halo 3's multiplayer component".

crazypuppet5563d ago

To me, Halo 3 will always have the best multiplayer due to the fact that it has such depth in custom options, and also due to forge. I haven't played killzone 2s multiplayer, but unless it has comparable options to keep it fresh i doubt i will like it more then Halo 3s.

and dont care I am getting this game on 27 th the world can go screw itself...

OC_MurphysLaw5563d ago

I mean seriously... comparing the multiplayer play to a game 2 years old say a TON about Halo 3 and just how good it is. Personally I think Killzone 2 should be compared to Call of Duty games as its a better comparison since they both are offering similar game play. Either way...you have to tip your hat to Halo 3 for still being the game to "beat".

822119865563d ago

we had loads of fun playing Halo 3 online, and the overall exp with Killzone 2 really topples that feeling, maybe the next COD will topple this feeling, who knows the gaming world is pretty unpredictble and volatile...

ali3125563d ago

to compare K2 to Halo is an insult to K2. Lets not even attempt to compare!!

fallingdove5563d ago

For me, while the Halo games have had dissappointing Single Player Campaigns, the multiplayer has always carried the redeeming quality for the titles.

If KZ2s multiplayer is being compared to Halo's robust muliplayer options then it identifies how rare/special Killzone 2 really is.

Sean Ryno5563d ago

Really, K2 is the most super-hyped game I have ever seen (including Halo 3) People think that K2 will be the BEST. Well, I have news for ya, according to amount played and purchases, Halo 3 is on top right now and has managed to stay there for 2 years steady. If you think K2 is gonna be "teh shizzle" then you gotta stand it up against the most successful out there.

Personally though I would compare it to COD4.

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-ro68d ago

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

darthv7268d 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_68d ago

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

Cacabunga68d ago

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

Profchaos68d ago (Edited 68d 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

seanpitt2368d 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!

Iceball200068d ago

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

Father__Merrin68d ago

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

InUrFoxHole68d ago

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

Marcus Fenix68d ago

A Resistance reboot will be awesome

Michiel198968d ago

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

1Victor68d ago (Edited 68d 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 😱

Michiel198968d 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.

1Victor372d ago

Can’t wait for their next franchise

SullysCigar372d ago

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

jznrpg372d ago

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

badz149372d 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!

Vengeance1138372d 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 Kim372d ago

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

VersusDMC372d 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?

Vengeance1138372d ago

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

solideagle372d 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.

Phoenix76372d 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

REDGUM372d ago

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

thesoftware730372d ago (Edited 372d 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.

blacktiger372d ago

thank you fps lover, I'm with you

talocaca372d ago

Such a wonderful studio. They deserve all their success.

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

OzzY-waZZy372d ago (Edited 372d ago )

Kinda wish they move on from Horizon tbh.

potatoseal372d ago

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

Imalwaysright372d 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."

shinoff2183744d ago

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

shinoff2183744d 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

badz149744d 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.
