Oh my god, and I DO have it by the time of release.

I can't wait to get on a computer where I can actually watch some videos. Has any gameplay been shown?

Gameplay.

You know what I found amazing? The game already looks as good as KZ2, plays BETTER than it, and the gameplay is Alpha / Pre Alpha footage.

4 player co-op missions have been confirmed for killzone 3.

As far as I can tell, the main campaign will be having 2 player co-op, and there will be a separate slew of missions for 4 player co-op. Seems a lot like the way Resistance 2 handled co-op.

Info keeps getting better and better.

It's great that they have the option to use Move and all, but is anyone really going to use that? I can't imagine too many "hardcore" gamers sitting on their couch and playing Killzone 3 with a motion controller.

I'm sticking with Dualshock 3.

It depends, I always hated using analog stick controllers in shooting games. Its all inaccurate and slow, so if the move can mimickt he speed and precision of the mouse I might use it.

Also, Multiplayer will have giant Mechs, jetpacks, experience system, and classes just like in KZ2.

I agree, and a mouse would be even better than the Sixaxis and Move. Motion controls aren't going to hit hard on "hardcore" games.

Video of Move controlled KZ3.

I can't tell how accurate it is though since he barely shoots any enemies, all he really does is run around changing weapons and throwing grenades.

If it is accurate (which most journalists say it is), it might work pretty good because the crosshair moves at a moderately fast speed. I'm not too sure on the gesture based things like reloading and picking up a weapon, they seem cool but I imagine pressing a button would be faster.

I'm actually really anticipating this game, it looks awesome so far and they've really tightened up the controls from KZ2 while keeping the weapon recoil/accuracy about the same. I could NEVER use the sniper in KZ2, that thing was so hard to aim with especially with the weighted control system.

It's been announced just over an hour ago that PlayStation Plus subscribers will be getting access to the KZ3 BETA tomorrow. It's limited to the first 10,000 people though.

To re-iterate, in order to get into the KZ3 BETA, you have to be one of the first 10,000 people to download the KZ3 theme when the store updates in europe.

For US, I believe its only the first 5,000 that download the KZ3 theme will be sent BETA keys.

I'm sticking with Dualshock 3.

From my experience with mag, close range Moves out performs a dual shock but long range it's too jittery and hard to keep steady and aim precisely on such a small target. This is largely due to the fact that they use the rail shooter calibration method(point on the screen and thats where the reticule will be). In all honesty its too sensitive to compete with a steadily aimed dualshock. If it used aimming sensitivities like the ones in sports champions or RE5, the reticule would be much steadier and more accurate at long range. At slight motion will actually look like a slight motion on the screen.

Also calibration on the move reticule isnt exact for pointers. Really even if you get it perfect on the calibration, later on it's going to look off and you'll have to recalibrate again mid game, breaking the experience.

I might end up working at Guerilla games if my own stuff doesn't work out.
I haven't played any of their games, because I don't have a Playstation.

BUMP

If you have the money, then get yourself the Collectors Edition. You get the game soundtrack, a dynamic theme, 3 unlock points for weapons/abilities, a map pack and for the first 24 hours that you play, everything is unlocked and you get double XP. Not bad at all for an extra £10.

Unfortunately it's for Europe only so if you live anywhere else then you'll have to fork out for the Helghast Edition if you want all that stuff. By the way if you didn't already know, I'll be running the clan like I did with the last game ;)

My Friends all paying $130 for Helghast edition.

I'm the only one being a non-retard and saving $70.

I'm wondering how bad Bulletstorm is going to perform on the PS3. I don't know ANYONE who is getting that over KZ3...

First KZ3 review gives it a 9/10.

I'm kind of surprised by how early this review came out, more than a month to go. Great score nonetheless.

KZ3 Open Beta is already up in Europe. In fact they got 500,000 kills within the first hour. It will be arriving at 1PM EST, and 4pm PST on the Playstation Store.

REVIEWS ARE IN

IGN - 8.5/10. Amazing graphics, good online multiplayer, still has weight, but controls have been tightened up immensely. Gorgeous set pieces. Lackluster story, repetitive use of fading in/fading out during cutscenes (grasping at straws here).

Destructoid - 10/10. Again Amazing graphics/setpieces. Improved controls, but a weak story (albeit action packed). Online component has been changed siginificantly. You can spend your points on any class at any time instead of being forced into a linear unlock path.

Gamrview - 8.9/10. Getting tired of everyone praising its graphics. However Gamrview feels it doesn't pack the wow factor that KZ2 had.

10/10 Playstation Lifestyle.

9.5/10 Gamesaktuell

Eurogamer - 8/10

Nowgamer - 8.7/10

9.4/1- - Gametrailers.

Generally speaking, every review seems to be bringing down the score due to the lackluster campaign of the game. In the gametrailers review, graphics, sound, gameplay all had 9.x, while the story had a 7.x. So if your going for a straight up campaign game, you should probably pass on this. If you want awesome online multipalyer, GET DIS SHEEET.
