Killzone 3 to include more than 70 minutes of cinematics

Malcolm McDowell is awesome. “When I’m 85, I can be doing video games, because they can put a young man’s face over mine,” he joked. “And as long as I don’t do a gravelly voice, I’ll be alright!”

HMV has the Sharp Shooter up for Pre-Order, i hope it comes to amazon and Game, but for now...

Let's put this in perspective though on Amazon.com it's $39.96 that's £25.20 GBP yet we have to pay an estimated £35, that's £10 more than Americans, That's $15 more, WHY.

Why can't companies release products for the same net price in different countries in keeping with the currency conversion rates set up Globally, why charge us more when it costs the same to manufacture, not just this but loads of different products are the same

I heard it sucks. Too heavy and you need to aim a little higher than where you shoot.

That's not a positive in my opinion.

MGS4 all over again.

As long as the player has the option to skip them I don't see any problem with it. I actually look forward to seeing the cutscenes for this game.

I am too, plus if you care anything about the story established in the last few games, one is going to want to watch them. I love the world, characters, and atmosphere of the KZ series.

The awesome gameplay and graphics are icing on the cake.

MGS4 all over again.

It was a good game, but there were too many cut scenes, and they were far too long. A lot of that could have been happening during the gameplay.

You would play a level then sit for a half hour and watch.

Just watched this AWESOME vid detailing the Move controls for Killzone 3...

Many shooter fans who own a PlayStation 3 have circled Feb. 22 on their calendar in anticipation of Killzone 3, Guerrilla Games' latest and most ambitious sci-fi shooter.

By now you probably know about the smarter Helghast enemies, biggest environments and new weapons, melee attacks and vehicle gameplay.

But we wanted to dig a bit deeper, so we tapped Steven Ter Heide, senior producer on the game, for some additional details:

Damage control. Inspiration for many things in Killzone 3 actually came from previous titles in the series, like some of the new weapons. An example is the WASP, which can fire swarms of missiles, and a gyro-mount style minigun that never overheats. Inspiration from both weapons came from Killzone 1, where Rico carries a gyro-mount squad cannon.

Mother tongue. We always aim for high standards, no matter how big or small the feature. Localization, for example, might sound like a trivial thing, but did you know that Killzone 3 is localized in 23 languages? We even had our game localized in Brazilian and Portuguese.

Double duty. You might know that Killzone 3 can be played with the PlayStation Move controller, as well. And that the game has full 3-D support. But did you know you can combine them both?

Size matters. Killzone 3 is so packed with features that it barely fits on a Blu-ray disc. There is only 10% out of the available 50 GB of space left. Without Blu-ray, the game would fill nine DVDs.

Designer details. We have a team of visual designers that provide the artists with drawings from which they create 3-D props. And as our office is housed in a 17th-century building on one of the canals in Amsterdam, you can imagine there is plenty of reference for them available in the direct vicinity of our office. If you ever visit Amsterdam, you might recognize some manhole covers or electricity boxes!

Nice, but how much of that data is uncompressed?? MGS4 claimed the same thing a few years ago iirc, but a lot of it was uncompressed video and audio.

The demo is still scheduled for the 15 right?? For some reason I put it on the calendar for today.

MP demo is set for tomorrow because it got pushed back a day and the single player demo is the 15th with plus members getting it on the 9th.

Cool. Thanks for the clarification. Guess I'll be downloading both.

No problem I'm looking forward to it myself, Maybe we will run into each other during the demo.
