So Cambridge takes over Killzone and the main Guerrila team is doing a new IP? I'm okay with this.
Killzone game where you play as part of a Squad of Helgans, think Republic Commando.
I'd die happy.
DIE ISA SCUM.
Preface: Yeah yeah I understand business reasons and their ROI on those games and blabla.
Fuck Killzone FPS games. Fuck them. And I say that as someone that thinks they are competent.
A platform holder should offer a diversified portfolio and make genres that are underrepresented in the AAA space.
If they need to make something that is pretty popular but not FPS popular then make a Splinter-Cell like game set in the Killzone universe.
There really much else to buy at launch.A 25% attach rate (2 million sold out of a 8 million instal base) is non-profitable?
Thats great news. They need to focus on PS4Sony as a whole is pretty much done with Vita. I'm looking forward to seeing what this team can do on PS4. Mercenary was crazy impressive on Vita.
They are taking over PS multi-million high profile franchise it doesn't say Killzone it could be anything really but most likely shooter personally hoping for Syphon Filter or Socom

I believe that it's the Crash Bandicoot reboot. I don't care if anyone quotes me asking for logic, I'm not using any of it
Obviously Syphon Filter...obviously.
Killzone Shadow Fall sold well because it tied to the PS4. I don't know what kind of accounting they use, but if that person that works in Excel likes the franchise they can make the numbers work easily.How good do you think the RoI for Killzone is though? Is it company politics or money that keeps the franchise going? Crap games with average to poor sales. Launch slot wasted and now SCE Cambridge wasted. Horrible franchise that needs to die.
I'm done with Killzone. I mean, I've only played Shadow Fall, but that was enough to convince me that it's not a franchise worth continuing any longer. If it were down to me, I'd ditch the series completely, or at the very most give it a ten year sabbatical, and then approach it again with a fresh pair of eyes. It's simply not that interesting enough to warrant further instalments.
So what I'm saying is, I hope it's not another Killzone game that Cambridge are working on, and I sure hope it's a MediEvil they're working on instead, because Sir Daniel Fortesque is a timeless character. Who doesn't want to see the return of Mr. Bean in skeleton form.
Please, god, no more Killzone.
...Unless it's an XCOM styled spinoff.
peanut gallery comment.Hopefully not Killzone. Sony needs to take that series out behind the shed and put it down. Mediocre series at best and I doubt it has been profitable.
Dude i almost forgot about Republic Commando, great Game imo. I like this Idea. Make it happen, Guerilla Cambridge.

Well, I've got bad news...Give me a new IP.
I do think it's fair to say that those numbers may be inflated by the limited amount of games at the launch of PS4, as well as bundles with the console. But yeah, it's not dead... and it not being dead allows the studio to take the risk involved in creating a new IP, which I'm happy with. I really don't think I can play a new Killzone though.
Arguably the best technical minds in all of Sony WWS should NOT be working on a franchise as devoid of substance as Killzone is. What a damn waste if this arrangement continues any longer.
Guerrilla's making an Open World RPG with the lead writer of New VegasWe've had sequels to Killzone and Infamous already. Uncharted and Gran Turismo to come and I'm pretty sure a new God of Wart is in the works.
Sony stop.
I wouldn't even mind a fps but please a new franchise. Like I keep repeating, ND could have pumped out Uncharted 4 on PS3 after U3 but instead took a little risk and made a new i.p that's gone on to sell 6 million and won 200 GotY awards.
Come on ffs.

Please be Medievil or WipEout! KZ needs a break anyway.
They're probably taking over Killzone.
They need to stop trying to make Killzone happen.
These guys are tech wizards, and if they do Killzone, I'm in for Killzone. I'd rather see them make Resistance though .
