Asshol-ishness is now my word of the week.

sixaxis5089d ago

can we really allow word "Cocksucker" in topics headline?

HQLocated1115089d ago

LMAO I love the headline.

STK0265089d ago

Usually I'd say it shouldn't be allowed, but considering it is related to Rico, I'd say an exception should be made.

gamingisnotacrime5089d ago

of course it is allowed

Shotgun to the face as final mission = smile on my face

spandexxking5089d ago

he got garza killed;_;
plus his overall attitude

Theoneneo815089d ago

look at all the aprovers Immature bots lmao the bots are all butthurt after the epic fail of MS keynote

BulletToothtony5089d ago

if people had played Killzone 1 they would love Rico..that guy was bad ass and helped out so much...

but the american journalism went ahead and hated on killzone because it was called a halo killer even thou i had a blast with the game..being able to play as 4 different characters.. awesome weapons and great melee system.

But all these people jumped into the killzone wagon on the second game and Rico coming as an ass was hilarious to me.. it didn't make me hate him.. but i can see how he would be annoying to people who didn't play the first one..

God i'm tired of the called "players" that want everything the same.. play the whole franchise or stfu and don't try to change the game for the TRUE fans of the game, because I as a true fan would love to play as Rico on killzone 3

STK0265089d ago

I played KZ for a bit, and watched the rest of the story on youtube, and I have to agree that Rico was a fine character in the first game. However, in the second outing, they made him a shallow character who only thinks about mindless killing and using the F word every time the opportunity arises. When listening to him while playing KZ2, I couldn't help but think that if that's the average ISA soldier, no wonder the Helghast invaded Vekta...

I guess the real reason I somewhat hate Rico, would be because he simply is an annoying and dumb character (in KZ2) when compared with pretty much every single other character in the game, and I wish he had died rather than Garza.

AtatakaiSamurai5089d ago (Edited 5089d ago )

Rico was the same in KZ1 as he was in KZ2. He cussed just as much. If you play KZ1 you'll understand Rico has issues with authority cause of things they did during the Helgast invasion of Vekta.

His loyalty and trust fall on the small group of people he rolled with in KZ1 Luger, Hakha and especially Jan Templer. He may build that trust with Sev in KZ3 but that's left to see.

The only people that seem to have some morbid hate of Rico are those that just started KZ with KZ2. You guys weren't there to help KZ1 become KZ2 so suck on it cause those that supported KZ from the start understand Rico what he brings to the KZ universe.

It's crazy cause the way they hate on Rico you'd think he reminds them of the school yard bully that took their launch money or someone who killed their mom.

Nonsensical mindless hate.

good to see people who actually know the story of killzone. Rico is a great chatacter with flaws. No character in a great story is perfect. otherwise the story would be extremely boring.

BulletToothtony5089d ago

dude killzone 1 was awesome.. i don't say the same thing over and over to look like a snob, i say it because i wish that more people would experience such a great game..

if i can get even 1 more person to play it, it would be worth it i guess.. the game is like $10 anyways..

DatNJDom815088d ago

Killzone 1's story was great. i liked the game a lot. there are some flaws with the game but it was things that really didnt bother me. i would recommend the game to anyone with a brain. great game

wardrox5089d ago

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

1Victor380d ago

Can’t wait for their next franchise

SullysCigar380d ago

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

jznrpg380d ago

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

badz149379d 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!

Vengeance1138380d 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 Kim380d ago

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

VersusDMC380d 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?

Vengeance1138380d ago

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

solideagle380d 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.

Phoenix76380d 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

REDGUM380d ago

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

thesoftware730380d ago (Edited 380d 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.

blacktiger380d ago

thank you fps lover, I'm with you

talocaca380d ago

Such a wonderful studio. They deserve all their success.

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

OzzY-waZZy380d ago (Edited 380d ago )

Kinda wish they move on from Horizon tbh.

potatoseal380d ago

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

Imalwaysright380d ago

There were rumours that they were working on a Socom reboot.

Killzone 3 is playable with mouse & keyboard on PC via RPCS3 & KAMI

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

MadLad1131d 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.

Applejack1131d 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_B1131d ago

Even emulators are super simple to use.

jukins1131d 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.

Vegamyster1131d 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.

SinkingSage1131d ago

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

Rachel_Alucard1131d ago (Edited 1131d 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.

Shhh don't say that aloud! You're going to trigger a lot of console infidels here.

Shane Kim1131d ago

I rather play it when it's available then wait 10 years.

MadLad1130d ago

Did you purposely miss the entire point of my post?

Inverno1131d 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

The RPCS3 devs are doing great work. And Kami works nicely with it too it seems.
Very neat.

Magatsuhi1131d ago

Been playing mgo on pc with mouse. It's not perfect but I can make it work.

Binarycode1131d ago

2 is the better game.

A Remake would be good. 60fps 2-4k

Omar3li1131d ago

60fps is peasant for FPS games now

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_vulgaris1309d 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.
