Looks good.

 

[Sanke__]

I really hope that the bf4 box actually says 900p. Would be nice to know they are telling the truth about resolution this gen.

 

[Sotha_Sil]

The description almost makes it seem like there's some player choice in how the campaign unfolds.

 

[Inferno313]

VSA is just a branch of the ISA from what I gather.

UCA > ISA > VSA

That's not what I'm talking about...

They accidentally'd a word.

 

[Tesshin]

Looks nothing like her.

Probably because so far all the full pics of her don't show her hair (it's probably tied back under her hood). The cover art shows very little of her face, so it's hard to tell.

 

[Razgriz-Specter]

for some reason thats one of my favorite boxarts of all time.

 

[fuzzyreactor]

So good

 

[Sub_Level]

VSA is just a branch of the ISA from what I gather.

UCA > ISA > VSA

VSA seem to be what they are referred to, judging by multiplayer scorefeed "Player X spawned as VSA"

I'm guessing "Vektan"?

Edit: Yup, pretty sure it's Vektan Strategic Alliance since this is on Vekta, and no longer "Interplanetary"

That's not the typo. It should be "...tensions between the VSA and the Helghast..."

Why? It's going to be upscaled to 1080p anyways.

 

[Mesharey]

Can the PS4 play Blu-ray XL? 100 GB?
If the maximum is 50 GB then we'll see many games use more than 1 disc.

 

[PAULINK]

The cover is so boring, so much white space too

Oh well, still buying it at launch.

 

[ButchCat]

Maybe but the in game model has a wider nose bridge.

 

[Tesshin]

Maybe but the in game model has a wider nose bridge.

Imo it really can't be anyone else but her. Echo seems to be an important secondary character. Jamie Gray Hyder said she did SIX months of mo-cap, gun and knife stunts, so I bet she's gonna be in the game a lot. It's only appropriate that Echo is on the cover with the protagonist, Lucas. I used to think she literally had 2 different eyes (

Spoiler

there's a rumor from Siliconera that she's a cyborg

). But the story trailer (like your pic above) clearly shows that she has 2 normal eyes. So I'm guessing that the cover is merely symbolic.

 

[Timu]

Beautiful...can't wait to hold it in my hands this November.

 

[TimeEffect]

That's not the typo. It should be "...tensions between the VSA and the Helghast..."

It's not about the acronym, it's the fact that there should be an "and" in between "VSA" and "the".

No, it's missing a crucial "and" in the sentence.

Oh, Lol.

I didn't see it before, now I'll be bothered by it -_-

 

[Zalman]

?

Still waiting for Killzone X.

 

[paradise_circus]

i really like the style

 

[RalliArtEvo]

Looks good!

 

[cheezcake]

It's nice but what's with this blue/orange contrast obsession in the shooter industry.

 

[- J - D -]

The color scheme works with the case color. Good enough for me.

 

[weevles]

45GBs minimum. I need a 2TB HDD. :/

 

[SRTtoZ]

Cant wait for dat 1080p. Also glad they listed the resolution on the box.

 

[TrojanBlade]

Omg we going through this, 45 GB is NOT MANDATORY INSTALL. Read the other threads ppl!

http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showthread.php?t=704440

What it does is the game is cached onto the hard drive and gets deleted

So we can play from the disc w/o fully installing the game correct? I don't believe mandatory installs of 45 GB to be true ... That would be ridiculous

Cover looks great. Hope they have better execution of the story as it sounds really good.

 

[TAJ]

Star Ocean IV runs at 900x510 on 360 but the console scales it to 1080p.
That's 1080p, right? lol

 

[Bishop89]

The owl design is so amazing.

it really really is. Loving it.

 

[MARNEY]

veery niiice.

 

[Gskyace]

I think it is the first time the full coversheet is revealed?
Though there are lots promotion covers from retailers.

This is the real one, while I haven't spotted any new info.

Yep, it is a videogame boxart.

I'm guessing she betrays Lucas (You). And she ends up being Visari's other daughter. She and Sinclair (the black dude) are really working for the Helghast and they will destroy the ISA from the inside. The ISA is also making soldier clones and all of them are being controlled by Lady Visari all along. At the end of the game, Lady Visari orders those clones to kill every ISA and the last shot will be Echo shooting Lucas to the head. Also she is pregnant and Lucas is the father.

Doesn't have explosions and debris nor a girl(or even a dude) with her back turned to us. I doesnt pass grade.

Mandatory install, mandatory caching, it's really just semantics isn't it? Yes, there's a difference, as "install" implies it's something you have to sit through before you can start playing, while caching happens as you play, but the end result is still that the game requires 45 GB of free space on your HDD. This is not optional, it's mandatory. And that cache won't get deleted right away as you stop playing, that would make it more or less pointless to even do in the first place. As your HDD starts getting full older game cache data will probably be automatically deleted, yes, but we don't know the details of how this works yet.

Yep

why is there a typo :3 my poor OC

Are the soldier clones all Rico? It sure would be fun killing him hundreds of times in a playthrough.

Yes, but he's there to fuck you again, multiple times.

 

[DangerMouse]

[JoshHood]

For those noting the install difference: it's entirely possible the artwork was approved etc. before final optimisations and the game going gold.

 

[FlyStarJay]

tears to my eyes, looks very good............wonder where the girl features in

 

[Vitor711]

lol people in my Knack thread were saying I was wrong for saying this game was 50GB's. I knew I had heard somewhere around 50 and not 39 because Knack is 37 and the difference in quaily from that game to this game looks like more of a leap then just 2 GBs.

Pretty sure you can't judge a game's visuals based on its file size - if that was the case then the PC version of Star Wars: The Force Unleashed would have been the best looking game of all time.

 

[Appollowexx]

So stylish. My favourite launch game art.

Really clean and simple.

 

[jgmo870]

It's so minimalistic for a cover and the girl adds a nice touch to it, like the MC's being watched especially since there's an emphasis on her left eye. First Killzone box art that I actually like.

 

[broony]

I don't think it was ever in doubt but it's nice to see the remote play logo there.

 

[RedSwirl]

Is that full print size? I still need to know what the pixel dimensions of a PS4 cover art are.

Hehe I'm all for Lucas and Echo hooking up. :3 But something tells me that she wouldn't be a traitor, like she ends up being the only one you can trust. I also suspect that she might be Chancellor Visari's daughter. I don't think Sinclair is working for the Helghast, considering his extreme hatred for them. Ultimately, we'll know for sure how the story goes when the game comes out.

The games installs as you play. You still need the space on your HDD though.

I was going to say something like that...c'mon,why would the BR version need the same size install as digital besides that it wouldn't use your ISP's bandwith(for those who have caps,this is important).

Should go nicely with those blue cases.
