And no baggage. And you attract people who don't give a shit about KZ. Also KZ: SF was about light and snappy as you can get. No weight.

Pretty much. The world and lore is far more interesting than most FPS franchises. GG just haven't utilized it properly yet.

I'm pretty sure all we ever got was the standard MS ambigious answer of "...for the life of the title" Which keeps the door open for a spin off and/or different edition of the title.
yeah, not a priority, especially with Planetside 2 coming very soon, however....
KZ still sells millions. It's not my particular cup of tea, but people do actually care about it.

Sarcasm aside, 2mil doesn't cut it anymore for most AAA games. It's not 1993 anymore.
Why don't you respond to my particular point on this topic?

Maybe it's no coincidence that SE announced that Shin-Ra Technology Cloud-based service in cooperation with Avalanche Studios just a few weeks ago. Could've been a hint leading to the eventual remake
Argggh, I can't wait for it to be saturday. So excitedddddd!
This'll be me during the stream:

Don't forget the PS4's masamune update.

and what would that be?
Because it's an acronym, it's always capitalized.
I'll admit I've only played 2 and Mercenaries. Good games. Nothing very distinctive about the game world though. I'd love to see some memorable characters and to actually be drawn into the universe.
Using Shadow Fall as the example for people loving the series seems ill-advised.

That seals the deal
In accordance to what amir0x is teasing.
The reveal is an old ( Capcom?) IP going exclusive to PS4.
If it was a new IP no one would be saying "a nice surprise" because you wouldn't know what it is.
And it's confirmed to be from a 3rd party.
Maximo ?
Rockman ?
Dino Crisis ?
Darkstalkers is my bet. Ono wanted to do it, capcom said no, I assume Sony stepped in

So 95% of game studios are closing down this year. That's a shame.

So basically you want them to create a new game yet don't think they are capable of delivering an interesting narrative?
How would this new game be any different than Killzone in that regard then?
I personally think SF was a good step forward in the campaign department. If they could build on what they started there and up the quality of the narrative while including a multplayer as robust as Killzone 2's...we would have something special.

It just came to me like a vision.
Okay, probably not but that game did just randomly pop into my head and I'd love another one.
Destruction Derby is coming back with Jaffe at the helm.

Why would Sony want it though? It has never really been a big series iirc.
Then maybe this thread isn't for you. All you've been doing is trying to be a downer when we all clearly are having some fun and letting our dreams go wild.

A new noby noby boy hopefully
Best response thus far.

Dude.... all Sony needs to do is buy out the Square time that made Final Fantasy Tactics and Tactics Ogre and have them make Helghast Tactics...
We get to keep the Killzone IP and it diverts away from the FPS so they can focus more on flushing out the story.
It also will never happen but one can dream...

Yeah nobody cares about Darkstalkers. Seriously.
Just checked out what it is. Never played but love fighters. Sony, you done good.
That's kinda rude.
Why are you lurking then ?
People are speculating about shit they love, some actually getting paid for it (I should be working and stuff lol).
That's what boards are made for.

So what happened to the thing Geoff was announcing on Twitch about The Game Awards? Can't see or find anything about it.
I hope this hasn't been answered before, but can we get confirmation that the keynote will be live streamed?
Also are the press invited to do coverage? It's one thing for the PlayStation Blog, it's another thing entirely to have Gamespot, IGN, Polygon and the like there.
Finally, does any one care for the Last Guardian any more :'(?

Would be such a disappointment. No joke, would rather have a new noby noby boy game.
yo whatever bro Darkstalkers is a rad fighting game
stay cryin' then
thuway said:
yes it's live streamed.
And YES damn it I care for Last Guardian and tons of others do too, it's mentioned at least twice per page in this topic
I'd play it, but then of course I am a sucker for any srpg/trpg with a grid battleground

I don't know; that's where it gets a little murky. If it seems unlikely the game would exist without the first party money then I don't think it's a bad thing, but if it's a guaranteed sequel like Tomb Raider Rising then despite whatever Spencer might claim about MS's money helping fund development, all they are in actual fact doing is paying to prevent or delay a PS version launching at the same time. I don't even buy those claims that Titanfall was going to be cancelled unless MS came in with their saviour money, because having created and helmed Call of Duty for nearly a decade, I'm sure EA would have given Respawn whatever they needed to create a 'COD-killer'.
I doubt this will happen, but it would be in EA & Respawn's interests if they can get a loophole in the contract and get the brand out there for PS4 owners.

There's a good chance that I'll miss this because I'm one of those losers who has to work on saturdays and sundays. I hope someone makes a compilation thread with all the news/trailers in one that I can bookmark in advance. Please?!
You made me look up Ono's twitter, then I saw this:
This can mean anything, seeing he's already producing Deep Down.
EDIT: yeah, you've got something going there. Sony wants its Killer Instinct ? We'll find out.

Looks like it won't be a fighting game but we can make different interpretations

Yeah I can't believe nobody knows if Geoff came back last night
I'm saying there is value in a blank slate. There are dozens of examples of interesting universes and games that don't capitalize. Destiny is a good recent example. Killzone is supposed to be political allegory, yet it's treated as another generic military shooter in-game. There is baggage attached with that. Not every script is meant for every director despite both being good seperately. Maybe a new universe, 3rd person, fantasy settings will do the talent at Guerilla some good.
But you use the phrase "good step forward" as if it were DLC for Killzone 1. It's been 10 years and four games later. When does opportunity cost start to be a thing for you? Why latch onto such a marginal franchise?
