Am I the only person really looking forward to killzone 4?! Loved 3 found it far better than 2, even tho I played more of 2.

**Kuro** · 08-10-2012

Nah your not the only one. I'm looking forward to it too.

Played mostly all of them except 1.

**nickrobbins** · 08-10-2012

Damn, killzone 1 for me was a pret good game on the ps2 never finished it but played enough to enjoy it.

**Nitey** · 08-10-2012

Definitely enjoyed KZ3. Platinum'd it and thought it was a great game - preferred it to number 2, which was also great. Wasn't a big fan of the story in Crysis 2 so we'll see how this turns out if it's true

i cant wait for Killzone 4... the only FPS i effing love. i remember playing KZ2 and was just so damn impressed at how fun it was (for me)

and yeah i platinum'd KZ3 (tried to on KZ2 but those MP trophies were dumb)

**Kuro** · 08-10-2012

I thought the Top down one was good too lol I really liked 3 for the co-op/SP but I enjoyed 2 for the MP those were some fun times.

**Ghost-Rhayne** · 08-10-2012

I'm looking forward to KZ4! Like the franchise and will gladly accept another installment.

Nope I'm looking forward to it too. I love the Killzone series. In fact I'm in the middle of replaying the Killzone 3 campaign.

**Epyon_1** · 08-10-2012

I'm looking forward to it as well but for me, I preferred KZ2 to 3. I loved the weighty feel and the multiplayer. KZ3's multiplayer wasnt fun for me like KZ2

**Sir_Scud** · 08-10-2012

Personally I thought KZ3 MP was better. As for a story, as long as the campaign is written without a ridiculous WTF ending, I'm cool with it. I liked the board room chats with the Helghast leaders in 3. Still need to beat KZ3 on elite.

**Dave-The-Rave** · 08-10-2012

I never completed the KZ2 campaign..but I completed the KZ3 campaign in like 2 days because me and a buddy just flew through it in Co-Op mode..so much more fun.

**Vulgotha** · 08-10-2012

The plot for KZ2 was great imo. KZ3's sucked.

What you talkin' about man? The ending in particular was mindblowing

**TekkenLord** · 08-11-2012

wonder what new direction they will be taking the story line this time.

They jumped the shark in KZ3 man. "CRAZY SUPER WEAPON THAT HAS BAD EFFECTS WITH HELGHAST ATMOSPHERE AND ANNIHILATES ALL LIFE ON THE PLANET."

It's like using a thermonuclear bomb in a batman movie. Or having The Fonz jump a shark. Or surviving a nuke by hiding in a fridge.

In a FPS I'm not overly concerned with academy award winning stories. I just want it to be fun. And the Killzone series is.

**Blacksite** · 08-11-2012

I'm probably alone in saying this, but I think Killzone 4 should be the last title. I do agree with radgamer420 that the games are fun to play but I feel like if they drag it out too much that it'll end up like the Resistance IP. I actually thought Killzone 3 would be the last game, until they added the last-minute surprise twist.

**Fenix** · 08-11-2012

Hopefully not, I dont recall Crysis 2s story so it must of sucked. Not that Killzone 3s was any better though

**nye99** · 08-11-2012

i dont really see this being a good thing, the crysis story isnt anything to shout about. As for the killzone story, it would have pretty awesome to have the helgast get to earth, and for the last stand to be there, no idea whey are going to take it with how killzone 3 ended haha.

**LastManDancing** · 08-11-2012

God, Crysis 2 was so boring. I don't see how this is exciting news.

Killzone 2 was a lot of fun. The heavier controls and atmosphere made it different enough from other shooters that it was refreshing.

Killzone 3 wasn't bad either. I wasn't particularly fond of the pacing though. It seemed disjointed.

Ya I'm with this. I don't see why a FPS needs to have a super great story, but props if there really trying to make it seem worthwhile tho.

I still haven't played KZ3 yet. I may get around to it later...

**DarkVincent07** · 08-11-2012

I'm not looking forward to it, but I'll play it and more likely than not enjoy it.. but I heard Crysis 2 was pretty meh, story wise at least. So I'm skeptical.... Not that Killzone ever had an amazing lore to begin with I suppose

**A7MAD** · 08-11-2012

I'm hoping it's a new IP but at the same time, Crysis 2 had solid visuals and was fun for a while but it's story was nothing I'd write home about.

Now don't get me wrong, I agree FPS and TPS games do not need the writers guild award but why go from mediocre story to mediocre story when your own studio could have done that already?

That may not read as intended...

**Naxi** · 08-11-2012

If true, i'm glad they're trying to improve. Crysis 2 story wasn't anything fascinating, but it paced really well and the ending was better than KZ3.

Being a shooter isn't an excuse to have a shoddy story. Not every game is going to have an award-winning narrative, but it's commendable to try to improve that aspect of the game.
