Killzone 3 Is Real, First Details

Looks like Killzone 3 is real, the latest issue of Gamepro apparently has the details.

Expect a feeling that the player will be “in a place far away from home, outnumbered”, there’ll be jetpacks, arctic levels, and – oh – 3D graphics, which require a 3D TV and, obviously, 3D glasses.

The most amazing intro would be just Rico getting shotgunned in da face :D

young juice5102d ago

i think rico is a very important part of the killzone series i just recently played the first one and was amazed at how story driven it was.
hes like ussop from one piece. you want him dead, but you know how it'll effect the story.

Cevapi885102d ago

rico needs to die...id rather see him go out guns blazing trying to save the squad or something like that since it does suit him...it would be badass and his character would gain retribution if he was to do that...what they need to do is bring back Hakha...he needs to be a playable character...idk how they missed out on him in KZ2

darthv725102d ago

i am sure there will be more said at e3. I would really like sony to remake kz1 in the same upgraded gfx style like what they did for gow collection.

Maybe they will make more comments about other games that will get the retro upgrade treatment.

gamingisnotacrime5102d ago

nah, Ussop has its moments, and is ok. but that Rico bastard should have been shot in the face at KZ2 ending, that would have been icing on the cake

jellybalboa5102d ago

that my friend would be a perfect intro, you deserve a bubble up!

HammockGames5102d ago

That motherf'r was asking for it the entire damn game.

On Elite difficulty that dude was so useless - actually a complete liability - it was criminal.

mal_tez925102d ago

This quote made me s#!t bricks

"Will be like Inglorious Basterds. "

This is unbelievably good news!

PirateThom5102d ago

Rico represents everything that is wrong with games. I'm fairly certain it's intentional, he's loud and brash, in constrat to the more sensible characters in the game, you hate him the entire game and then he screws you over at the end.

He fills the role of "enraged liability" perfectly.

kunit22c5102d ago

cmon, please make 3D only an option, I don't have the money for a 3D TV right now...

fedex6825102d ago

I have not played Killzone 2 yet, that is because I dont play FPS as it gets me dizzy but I have been following the story on youtube and after that epic ending I am very eager to know what will happen...

For starters, Rico getting shot will be good! really good!

Mit5102d ago

Another controller lag fest! lmao...I bet sony has nothing for E3. LMAO!
RIIIIDGE RACER!!

BulletToothtony5101d ago

not trying to offend anyone but all you noobs who never played killzone 1 no wonder you're hating on Rico.... you guys have no idea how funny and important he is to the franchise.

If they killed Rico it would be a huge disappointment to most TRUE killzone fans..

you noobs jumped on killzone 2 and you want the makers to change the franchise because you don't know about the background.. please be true gamers and go play part 1 before you make comments like that..

shadow27975101d ago

Oh please. Rico sucked in Killzone 1, too, and he got worse in Killzone 2. You can be a real fan and still want Rico dead.

Get over it, you're in a minority. Calling people "noobs" doesn't make your opinion more important than everyone else's.

TRUE fans hate Rico, too, sorry.

And More than 15 Games for DS3.

CellularDivision5102d ago

I thought jetpacks were bad. At least everyone said so in the Halo:Reach articles. They said it was uncreative and stuff...

marinelife95102d ago

I wonder if Guerilla can top Naughty Dog's snow? Seems almost impossible.

BakedGoods5102d ago

I was thinking that too. Might not be a big deal though since as an FPS the affects your character has on the snow would be less pronounced anyway.

The thing I like about PS3 developers though, is that they're always competing internally with each other, pushing each dev team to max out the PS3--so in the end, gamers win.

TotalPS3Fanboy5102d ago

"It just looks fantastic how the snow lays down on the weapon and melts when shooting - and all that in 3D!"

cmrbe5102d ago

MGS4 snow is the best. Shadow Moses is the best.

karan86245102d ago

Realize that the reason the snow looks so good BECAUSE of Naughty Dog
Without a doubt Naughty Dog is lending a hand with this game. All the first party sony companies work together, as well as with some like Bungie and IW. So ND is likely showing GG how to do the effects, or letting them use theirs and upgrade them

jetpacks sounds great but i thought we might go back to earth and maybe the isa invasion got pushed back

Earth is way too far away from the solar system Vecta and Helgan share. It won't make sense if the KZ2 crew are the main Xters for this one.

Maybe Killzone 4 or 5 for that one.... holy crap, Killzone 5 on the PS4?! *head explodes*

My bad i meant vecta not earth its just their similar my mistake, but yh imagine killzone on the PS4 the attention to detail would be amazing.

Stop making these stupid games! They won't "kill" halo even if you try to make as many Killzone games as there are Halo games

beavis4play5102d ago

i think the whole notion of one game "killing" another is foolish.

shadow27975101d ago

No one is trying to "kill" Halo. GG is making games that many gamers like. If you don't like it, don't play them. Simple as that.

I prefer Killzone to Halo, personally. Though I plan on getting Halo: Reach and Killzone 3. I'm sure I just blew your mind.

NeoBasch5102d ago (Edited 5102d ago )

KILLZONE 3D

I can sense the pun already. :D

Why not add Resistance 3D and Uncharted 3D while we're at it? lol Too bad God of War III, missed out. We were almost on a streak there. Regardless, I'm looking forward to each. I just hope they don't attach the "-3D" suffix to everything.

I'm kinda hoping they ditch Quincux AA, and put in something like MLAA. The game would look phenomenal, although I am a fan of games looking unique and having filters. I really hope they do diverse environments.. I still remember GG talking about what they were working on was best stuff they've ever done, when the KZ2 DLC was releasing..

There's no doubt this game will be a looker. Wonder if we'll see Jungle and sunlight??

Absolutely with you on that fella....

Erotic Sheep5102d ago (Edited 5102d ago )

The ONLY thing I didn't like about KZ2 was the forgettable story, everything else was top notch! Improve the story and we have a winner.

Even tho, may I add... the voice acting from Visari was one of the best I've seen in videogames.

-Alpha5102d ago (Edited 5102d ago )

There is rumors of a greater emphasis on story for K3, and I'm going bananas over the thought. God, E3 is going to be amazing.

@Sheep

Im pretty sure Sev will be leading the game again.

I just don't want douchey supporting characters and a quiet protagonist. Hopefully they beef up the story elements, Killzone has a wonderful world that has yet to be properly recognized and told.

Erotic Sheep5102d ago

As long as it wont be like MW2 where your main character dies after every mission -.-' Seriously.. that was way overdone.

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

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

badz149365d 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!

Vengeance1138366d 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 Kim366d ago

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

VersusDMC366d 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?

Vengeance1138366d ago

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

solideagle366d 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.

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.

Still looks secure 2 gens later... one of my favorite ps3 moments. With 3D and move the game is on another level

MadLad1117d ago

PC almost always ends up the best place to play games, even if it takes a while.

What would you rather play decades down the line? A game at a fixed resolution and frame, considering you have a working disc, and the hardware?
Or run it on an emulator that can update the experience all around, and let you use whatever control input you prefer?

If you insist on the former, it's really only for the sake of nostalgia.

Applejack1117d ago

I disagree. The main draw for consoles has always be the simplicity of just putting the disc in / downloading it and playing without worrying about anything else. The average person just wouldn’t want to deal with emulation even though it’s very important for preservation.

Terry_B1117d ago

Even emulators are super simple to use.

jukins1117d ago

Youre getting flak because people on here thibk of themselves as pc wizards. But honestly most poeple try and go get emulators and romz they end up with malware.. yes theyre "easy" if you know the basics but alot of people dont. That said the fact that its taken nearly 20 years to get a sustantially better experience for ps3 games than on its native system shows the complexity of getting bc to work. Sony, if they have any intention, should just invest in a vastly better psnow experience.

1117d ago
Vegamyster1117d ago

jukins

Most people who emulate don't get malware, you'd have to be going to some weird sites for that to happen, heck years ago people were getting sketchier ad's resulting in malware warning on this site if you didn't have a ad-blocker lol.

SinkingSage1117d ago

Can't get malware if you legally dump your own games, which you should.

Rachel_Alucard1117d ago (Edited 1117d ago )

That's fine if that's the main draw, but it doesn't make it a better experience, just a preference. Having the freedom to do the things you can do on PC is what the appeal of PC is. Buying a game on PC means you never have to worry about the console makers just deciding the next hardware shouldn't support the generation anymore, which means everything you bought is stuck on that hardware instead of moving up with everything else. Nintendo uses this tactic to keep reselling the same games over and over at inflated prices. Sony cut all previous gens off the PS4 and sold it back to people in a poor attempt with PSnow. While the PS5 supports PS4 games, that may not be the case in the next gen after this. No to mention shutting off all the previous stores and updates completely. Even MS stopped making new BC titles at some point, so now there's a big list with 17 pages of titles that are not playable on Xbone and are just trapped on older gen. That's not a problem on PC, the reverse happens where you only have to worry if your hardware can play the newest releases at ultra with no issue.

Did you purposely miss the entire point of my post?

Inverno1117d ago

Well that's the beauty of still owning a retro console tho. Those who usually complain about emulation are just being blindly loyal to a company. Emulation is great for many reason, but if I still owned the console then I disagree nothing beats plugging it back in and going down a nostalgia trip

Top 10 PS3 Games We Hope Come Back On PS5

While Xbox has committed to backwards compatibility spanning four generations, PlayStation has continued their stance that the feature isn't important. Well, it is! I'm hoping these PlayStation 3 classics that skipped the PS4 entirely show up again on the PS5 for everyone to enjoy.

Resistance, Dead Space franchise, Splatterhouse, Lollipop Chainsaw, Brutal Legends, Alice Madness Returns, Enslaved Journey to the West, Mass Effect franchise. Also wouldn't mind seeing a new Wild Arms game remake or HD remaster, the Xenosaga trilogy, a new Parasite Eve, a new Dino Crisis just too many games to list that are forgotten and left in the dark now adays.

Sciurus_vulgaris1295d ago

The PS3 is difficult to emulate. PS3 backwards compatibility on PS5 would require translation from PowerPC to x86. Additionally the PS5 likely would have to mimic the PS3’s GPU and CPU.

This is what pops up on my web browser. So I can't even read the site. So, forget that. They don't need my data.

But let's get something straight. OG Xbox had around 1,001 games. How many are BC on Series X? **39** THIRTY NINE. Come on! That's wack BC. You can't tell me that's a complete list. Talking about commitment. Game preservation. Ridiculous. Covers nothing.

How many games released on Xbox 360? Around 2085. How many are BC?
568. That's it. Around 1,517 are **MISSING** Stop playing. Tired of that nonsense.

Anyway, the only games I really want from PS3 that would be awesome are Motorstorm and MGS4. I'll take BC. I'll take a remaster. I'll take a remake. If not those, then Killzone 2. And in VR, maybe Sports Champions, House of the Dead Overkill and the Time Crisis games.

That's all I need. But we've gone over BC again and again in every possible way. It wasn't that important because Sony sold 115 million consoles without it. That's proof enough with no outcry. And PS5 has damn near all 4,000+ PS4 games BC. It's not PS1,PS2 and PS3. But that's plenty. I'll take more but you get what you get.
