Killzone 3 Dev Expects Motion Controls To Replace Conventional Ones

Speaking to CVG, de Roos, who's one of Killzone 3's principal programmers, said "I think, as this develops [using motion controllers], in a few years most of the first-person-shooters will be played like this. I really think so. Maybe not the Move specifically but a pointing controller like this."

well having played it and dominated 10 games with it since the start of the Beta, its here to stay. as for replacing it, idk about that.

Raider694842d ago

Im glad you Play with noobs!

DORMIN4842d ago

I think I will in the not so near future.

For consoles, Its inevitable. again thanks to Nintendo. The D-pad, The analog stick, and the motion controller.

For computers, Keyboard will continue to be the standard for a long time because of many reasons not only in gaming.

gypsygib4842d ago

You sound jealous deadlybrand

room4144842d ago

Dormin you're a typical know-nothing nintendo fan who thinks nintendo invented everything.

There were plenty of analog sticks around before they put one on a 64 controller. The first d-pad was used in 1981 on milton bradley's microvision. And xavix, which released in 2004, was the first wii mote/Move like motion controller.

DORMIN4841d ago

hahahaa, know-nothing Nintendo fan? Now i've heard it all. Funny you say that since I haven't owned a Nintendo console since the N64.

Obviously Nintendo did not invent these things.
But you can't deny they popularized those things and made it the standard in consoles.

No thank you. I don't mind having motion controls as an alternative control scheme however as long as it doesnt nerf the traditional controls.

I think motion controls should stay where they're most popular, with casual and fun games. Most of them would lose alot of their joy if used with a traditional controller].

Some games do well with motion controls though[Look at some of the Wii's best games. But ultimately I want a tradional controller with my main games.

a_bro4842d ago

I dont play with noobs, thats the problem : ). And you better be careful when you play me online with my move controller , its going to depress you.

AKA4842d ago

lol your funny

MOVE = N00B
I have the move and wull use it on the campaign and maybe sometimes online but i dont think so.

Glad that you can play better with the move i guess is the new generation casual friendly like they say it was going to be.

a_bro4842d ago (Edited 4842d ago )

If you have move, then go try it in the k3 beta right now And tell me if its for noobs.

A noob doesn't get 48 kills and 10 deaths against ds3 players, especially when playing with a move controller, right?

Btw these were games in which I ended up in first place in my team. And this was with aim assist off.

Instead of disagreeing with me, prove me wrong since you have the equipment.

People just love being skeptical

Btw, im not saying that motion controls will eventually replace regular controllers, all I said that they are here to stay.

Btw I will not hit agree or disagree with no one just to not stir flamebait. Don't believe me if you want, but kz3 proved to me that move should be taken seriously for playing hardcore titles. I've been gaming for over 20 years now And never have I seen a device do such things for the fps genre.

DERKADER4843d ago

Console manufactures have been selling us Motion peripherals, plastic guns and power gloves for decades. The one thing they all had in common was they were all gimmicks used to increase market share. When the next generation of consoles comes out we'll get all new worthless motion devices to spend money on.

Tommykrem4843d ago

As Ben Croshaw said, the optimal solution to create immersion is getting a maximum output from a minimum output (You do as little as possible in real-life, to get as big as possible output in game).
So unless motion gaming feels like you're really doing the motions in the game, most people are likely to feel more immersed by a minimal input solution like controllers, keyboards and mind-control. So controls shouldn't be on their way out just yet :)

ELite_Ghost4842d ago

i'll only use my move for campaign
Don't wanna get pwned online XD

AKA4842d ago

you will not get pwned

you

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.

Phoenix76370d 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.

potatoseal370d ago

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

Imalwaysright370d ago

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

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

bouzebbal1120d ago

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

MadLad1121d 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.

Applejack1121d 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_B1121d ago

Even emulators are super simple to use.

jukins1121d 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.

1121d ago
Vegamyster1121d 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.

SinkingSage1120d ago

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

Rachel_Alucard1120d ago (Edited 1120d 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 Kim1121d ago

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

MadLad1120d ago

Did you purposely miss the entire point of my post?

Inverno1120d 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.

Magatsuhi1120d ago

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

Binarycode1120d ago

2 is the better game.

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

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_vulgaris1298d 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.
