Killzone 3 announced with tons of details, who cares?
Well first up I’ll quote out some material from CVG and then give you what I think on this subject.
- Will have jetpacks, which are “surprisingly lightweight and agile… compared to the sluggish incarnations of the gadget found in other games”. These double up as a weapon, with a machine gun on top that makes Helghast “explode like Roman candles”. To control the jetpack, you “have to activate bursts of speed in midair, propelling yourself across further distances”. The Jetpack is said to resemble something from Super Mario Bros. or Uncharted.
- Will include arctic levels. One of which will see you “launch yourself from glacier to glacier”.
- Is playable in 3D – but users have to wear 3D glasses. The 3D effects are described by GamePro as “crazy”.
- Will show the Helghast have humanity left in them.
- Will have the feeling that “of being in a place far away from home, outnumbered by people who want to kill you”.
- Will feature one mission where you rescue ISA Captain Narville
- Will feature “unchanged” combat… However, hand to hand combat involves you “Unloading a string of different (and often brutal) attacks on stunned enemies.”
- Is “bigger”.
- Features a new weapon called the Wasp, which shoots a “flurry of rockets” at an enemy.
- Will show off Helghast culture and a new language, which will be explored in the game.
- Will have “diverse locales”.
Okay so for me all I can think of is wasn’t this the game that would kill Halo? I remember when Killzone came out on the PS2, I still continued playing Halo 2, I didn’t even bother to pick up Killzone as a matter of fact nor did many people. So then I was surprised when Killzone 2 came out, and guess what, I still didn’t buy it. Now Killzone 3 is being created and I still just could not care less. Am I wrong to not care about this franchise? Let me know in the comments.

My mission in life is to entertain myself. If others come along for the ride, all the better.

yeah, you are kinda wrong…as an owner of both an Xbox and Ps3 (no bias) id say it is a pretty neat game with an addictive MULTIPLAYEr but with a ballsack gone rotten storyline.

Agreed…but it wasn’t and will never be, in any way, shape or form, a “Halo Killer”.
