Gameplay-wise: actually no. there were 2 portable game versions of the Killzone franchise's. one for the old PSP (the PS Now version of it doesn't count) and for the PS vita as well.
I sunk so much time into Killzone 2 and 3 multiplayer. The movement was swift and the combat was heavy and chunky. I still remember the little jingle when you landed a kill!
I think KZ2 and TimeSplitters 2 took up so much of my time - both single and multiplayer. I miss games like that.I can’t think of many other FPSs that I have spent that much time on.
i really liked the first game on ps2 because at that time i was trying all types of new fps game to see how well they stacked up....2nd and third were ok ,i found them generic by that point compared to other fps games...
Shadow Fall is that game I love but everyone hates, it's a mess from a story telling standpoint but the ideas are still genuinely interesting and it's a blast to play. 2 is a near flawless shooter while 3 & mercenary are stellar so I'd recommend those also
Shadowfall put the Nail on the Coffin. I just dont know the Feeling was not the same anymore. I always loved the Gritty Atmosphere of the Killzone Series.
Yeah - It was good - but just a little off in terms of the atmosphere of the others. Especially after how brilliant 2, 3 and Mercenary were. So sad to see it gone! Hopefully it makes a comeback.
I loved this series. Like you, the lore drew me in, and this 14 year old who got his hands on the brand new killzone 1 was blown away. Then, came KZ2. So, so many hours were sunk into the KZ2 multiplayer, I always enjoyed more tanky FPS games and KZ2 was it. That, and the constantly rotating game modes made each fight, even if it was on the same map so much more dynamic. The art direction, the designs, some of the lore; those elements helped me in my works in college and post college on a project of my own. It's a shame that it seems its the end of this franchise, but it means I got to find this gem of a video. Great video man, great video.
I think a Killzone reboot would be great. The entire Killzone storyline is a bit of a mess tbh, Killzone 2 was the only game in the franchise that had an amazing story, aesthetic & even gameplay, Killzone 2 almost felt like an arcade-sim of fps.
Man I'm still playing Killzone to this day, it's my main multiplayer on any/every Sony console. Shadow Fall (despite it's many issues) is still a blast and the KZ2 fan servers saved a classic. God this series needs a return.
As a fan of the series, even I will admit that GG's unwillingness to improve the storytelling is what finally turned me off the series. KZ2's bad story was tolerable because everything else was near perfect. Same with KZ3. But when KZ:ShadowFall came out, I was annoyed that the story still hadn't improved for 3 GAMES STRAIGHT. At that point, I zoned out of the series. I think GG shot themselves in the foot by writing KZ3's ending. Because the environments in KZ:SF were nowhere near as interest or beautiful as KZ2 and KZ3's beautiful Helghan landscape.
Yeah - it seems that GG learnt a lot from Killzone and their storytelling as they went on to make Horizon which has an incredible story. I’m hoping that GG’s secret project is a Killzone reboot.
@@RoyMcCoy Everyone is saying their new game in the works could be KZ, but I highly doubt it. It could very-well be a new FPS IP using the same engine as KZ. Games are becoming more expensive to develop due to longer development times, and I don't think Sony wants to risk it on another KZ. Bringing down the KZ website is a big giveaway. They do this with every single series they cancelled. Warhawk and Resistance also had their own website that they closed down.
@@canadianturtle7240 they don't have to crate whole new game with story and everything, just f2p multiplayer with cosmetics for monetization without any p2w that feels like killzone 2 or 3
they should do a reboot since there aren't many ways to go forward with the story. tho i don't think they should ignore the lore from the previous games.
I think they just shut it down because of a lack of player base. I always envisioned a Killzone game where we play as the ever formidable and admirable Colonel Mael Radec.
i honestly just want them to remake killzone 3. Remake it with the latest graphics better animations etc and u have a something special. There is nothing like the killzone atmosphere. underrated. I prefer killzone 2 and 3 out of all of them. Killzone shadow fall i wish never happened.
if one day we will get reboot of this series . i really hope they use the first game atmosphere with today technology and understanding of fps games . aka i want game like in the boot of first game . killzone cinematic intro is one of my favorite one of all time .
I totally agree with you! I think maybe a Killzone reboot might be a good course of action. Some younger gamers won’t have played the earlier games. If they did a ‘Doom’, I’d be so happy - but even a Killzone 5 would be incredible.
Killzone 2 was the best mp I ever played, and one of the best fps campaigns. I still think about it and miss it. Only fps I tool the time to platinum. Kz3 was great as well, but the mp took some cod elements that didn't work quite as well as what they did in kz2 imo.
The lore of Killzone was better than the actual games. That's the thing that pissed me off the most. They made the games really action movie when they had written some really amazing worldbuilding for it.
If they were gonna to a reboot I'd like to see killzone 1 and killzone liberationf from the ground up, and the point you made there on sony focusing more on Single player story is correct but one of the main reasons why I didn't buy a PS4, the Lack of 1s party Multiplayer was real on the PS4, definitely lost me
What Guerilla needs to do is stop making the campaigns pro-ISA. Playing as the Helghast outside of multiplayer has become a high demand for years. Plus if you look into the history, the ISA weren't really saints especially in Shadow Fall
Was kinda late to the Killzone party really. Played Killzone 3 at my friend’s house knowing absolutely nothing about what it was, then Shadow Fall came and I tried it, it was terrible for me. But with all this news, if they did bring back Killzone, I think a game based around two perspectives of the conflict would be nice, or just make the Helghast the protagonists this time. Not to mention they could always pull inspiration from Jin-Roh, the anime that inspired the Helghast design as well as war dramas like Gundam. Forgive my anime speak, it’s all I have XD.
*What!?* [eye twitched] Feh. so closing down the online multiplayer of KZ03 wasn't even enough for guerilla games to do? the killzone website as well?....
@@RoyMcCoy Eugh....and I was also keeping myself to date with all of those hopeful KZ05 possibilities to come (well, After H2:FW is done launching if guerrilla games do decide they'll be the ones doing the killzone title again) back before seeing this shock video. or reboot, depending. now?.... now it's....
I hope they make another - I hope they see how much fans want it to happen - and to be honest - I make these videos to talk about series that I love ... but I also hope that one day I can make a sequel series called ‘it’s happening’ and one of those be ‘killzone 5’.
@@RoyMcCoy wonder. if it (yes talking a bit of killzone lore now for a bit) is going to involve the ICSA folks this time that surrounds the outer territories of the Earth governance? those okay guys seems like they have something to say about the UCN and Helghan situations happening back on Vekta. we didn't have much knowledge on them too much in the main game action sections, like rhe UCN/UCA are too (supposedly guys back on our home of Earth within that universal franchise).... always focusing the story with the Humans of the two Alpha Centauri systems.
I very much wonder what they’ll do in terms of the story - a lot of people complained that the story wasn’t told well enough - but in terms of lore and backstory, I firmly believe that it is amazing. So, playing devils advocate, now they’ve created Horizon which had great storytelling - it might be worth a reboot FPS that starts off during the initial rebellions and first war. Therefore it would bring in older fans to see a kind of prequel - and new fans. They could also bring in more elements of lore that were discussed later. If they did look at other planets under Earth, they could in fact launch a new franchise that referenced killzone lore. There’s so much scope!
we need another killzone base on killzone 2/3 shallow fall look good but thats all it did for me , killzone2 was amazing when you play it you knew you was in war l sure if they made another killzone like killzone2 it be best seller
I guess the era of the first person shooter has just kinda died down, and there are only a handful of surviving titles that people still play like Halo and Call of Duty (which have their own problems). Killzone just didn’t make the cut. It never became as big as COD or Halo, and Guerilla Games found success with Horizon Dawn. A Killzone revival might happen years down the road, but after the failure of ShadowFall and the success of Horizon Dawn, I don’t see it making a comeback for a while if at all.
Personally what I think the killzone franchise is somewhat dead but there is hope they might make another I know that's a long shot Gorilla Games are more interested of horizon zero Dawn in terms of story and sells wise then again never said never and I wouldn't mind to see the helghast Army rise once more
Damn you consoles with your exclusives! While I don't mind games came first on consoles but a year later they should hit Steam and get another 50% of total sales EZ! Just look at Horizon, they probably sold more on PC by now that on PS4
For another game made by Guerrilla Cambridge that seemingly disappeared - Heavenly Sword - check out this: bit.ly/WHT_Heavenly_Sword
Gameplay-wise: actually no. there were 2 portable game versions of the Killzone franchise's.

Yeah! 2 and 3 were so amazing. I really hope they give it another shot and resurrect it.
Shadow fall wasn’t too bad either. Its problem was it felt like 3 remastered.

@@GoB1996 Yea and it was a pretty short game compared too the others but still a good game
@@GoB1996 no it sucked
I was actually looking for a good campaign so I bought shadow fall for like 10 bucks. And now here I am drawn in
Dude you gotta check out 2, Shaddowfall was actually the low point of the series.
Go play 2 and 3! Shadow fall was the worst one ever made, and was still fun.
Shadow Fall is that game I love but everyone hates, it's a mess from a story telling standpoint but the ideas are still genuinely interesting and it's a blast to play. 2 is a near flawless shooter while 3 & mercenary are stellar so I'd recommend those also

I don't really mind what it is what we get, but as long as it has something to do with the Killzone franchise i'm happy.
Because you did a video on Killzone, I subbed... just love this series, especially Killzone 3.

But er... are the Helghast mutated-creatures or just simply evolved humans?
Mutated Humans that actually ended to be evolved.
