Damn...just four weeks away.
And I would very much like to know how long is SP campaign, does it have a lot of open sections, and how much replay value it has.
That's been one of my major gripes with the later gens, it's so easy to show so much of a game that nothing is a surprise by the time it comes out. I remember games were so exciting when the media was limited to screenshots in GamePro and EGM and preview articles.

I wonder when they have to go gold for the game.
Generally, launch titles have a bit more flexibility in terms of going gold than traditional titles....
Could probably go gold 1-2 weeks before launch instead of the traditional 3-4.

Thursday night or Friday morning...depending on your time zone.
I completely agree. Based on all the media release for AC4, I am skipping that game completely.
awwww yisssss
It Keighley is calling it a blowout they're going to spoil everything. Not touching this with a 10 foot pole. One of my biggest regrets is watching the GoWIII episode.
I don't remember, was KZ3 shorter than KZ2?

They need time for packaging, especially for the PS4/KZSF bundles.
I do hope to get someone who dives in to tell if the game is generally open-ish or not. That's the big thing that put tthis Killzone on my radar over others (and the fact it's got a visual style more to my liking.)
Good point. I will skip this episode also and just wait the 5 weeks to play this game. 5 weeks won't be that long because I will be on vacation for 2 of those weeks

I won't be able to resist.
My willpower is shit.
BTW, GG devs are really hyping up the character Echo.
I'll probably cave too. For some reason I can't stay away from Killzone media.
I think they're hyping up Echo because she'll be the real main character. They've hardly even mentioned Kellan.
Clearly I've been subconsciously trying to forget that you're getting the PS4 two weeks ahead of us. :'(
I'm also in the EU, and not in a tier1 county.
Yuuuup, skipping this for sure. Unless I get confirmation from fellow gaffers that it's not spoiler-heavy.
It was to me, I beat KZ3's campaign in one playthrough for 6 hours on the day I got the game.

It's about time! This game is about to go gold, and I'm tired of seeing the same section
Better question is if we ever see proper Killzone campaign that fits lore created for it.
IT is really shitty to see campaign like K2 had where lore is so vast and good.

13 minutes of footage guyz!
Sounds like a possible GoW3-style blowout.

13 minutes of footage guyz!
3 minute trailer
10 minutes of interview spliced with B-roll footage containing 70% old, 30% new footage.
Also the episode is only 20 minutes long
ARGH. I KNOW I should skip it. I KNOW. But man...I just don't know if I have the willpower. I don't know if I can do it.

EDIT: I did just re-read the tweet and it says 13 minutes of footage. Not necessarily new footage.
Damn you Keighley
Nah. You can always read up on the lore/back story online or on youtube (or play KZ merc if you have a vita
) but yeah you should be good to go since this game takes place 30 years after the events of KZ3. New characters, new setting etc

This is THE game to demo on kiosks. It will help sell systems like no other title they have.
13 minutes of footage guyz!
Hot damn. Hope it's a whole 13 mins of gameplay and not just a few minutes of a trailer followed by mainly commentary and interview stuff.

No way... unfortunately it will be full of the usual interviews also, but I'm sure well see new stuff for sure.
You should be fine, but I highly recommend reading the back story regarding the series and about the origins of the conflicts between the Helghast and the Vektans. It's really awesome.

And it doesn't seem to be because of the M rating, likely. Which sucks.

Damn. I'll be at work. Is that 1AM Thursday or Friday?
It's live? Will it be posted to GT as a vid afterward for those of us who have to miss it?

There should be more tampons in gaming
Were it 1 am est today wouldn't it have occurred roughly an hour and forty minutes ago? So I assume 1 am Friday and not actually Thursday. I don't know why they have it so late, like what person is normally up at that time point (well except for us)? I wish it were earlier so I could actually read the meltdowns on GAF throughout the day at school. It's so entertaining. Plus I'm itching to see how much better KZ looks now after all this time considering the MP footage looks so phenomenal.

An individual enemy in the game has 24 A.I. routines, so they'll likely be doing a series of things to attempt to convince you that you are playing against a human opponent. Anyway whats there to worry about? Killzone 2 and 3 have some of the finest and most aggressive A.I. around

I work night shift. I'm at work right now, actually.
Is GT putting the video up so we can watch it later? That may sound like a stupid question, but Apple keynotes sometimes take a long time to go up. Back in the day, if I remember correctly, some keynotes just never went up as a non-live video.
Excellent. It's probably the best representation of 'realistic' cover warfare & team suppression behavior in gaming.
Read this, and don't be surprised if the story of Shadowfall doesn't live it to its awesome promise.

Anyone notice any framerate issues in this video, and does screen tearing = dropping frames?
I dont even understand why they need to show any more levels? Whats with this entitled attitude of people that they should show them all the levels of the game. One or two is more than enough than showing everything before hand. Hell GTA barely shows anything before it comes out. MGS games have long trailers but they never show more than one level because discovering it in the game is more fun.

After the driveclub news, better be freaking awesome to make me forget all.
And I hope that they have solved the screen tearing!

No, it's not confirmed, but after reading to famousmotimer... Sorry, I don't want to derail the thread
