[QUOTE="ngoniko"][QUOTE="Blitz_Nemesis"][QUOTE="ngoniko"]

[QUOTE="Blitz_Nemesis"]$40 mill + 120 devs + 2 year of secrecey = POTENTIALBlitz_Nemesis

if they don't deliver, I'm going to slap them

That wont even be necessary. To spend $40 mill on an average game is enough of a slap in the face for Sony.

logic much?

so if i'm a "average" company, and I invest 40 million dollars into my company to make it great.... do you see where i'm going with this?

it's a gamble

So if yours a company how are you investig $40 mill into yourself? Anyway way yah it it a gamble butreally risk must be taken for an sucess.With thisgamble things are really inSonys favour

smart much?

Sony is not owned by 1 person, so if you invest into your company you get more of the company shares and profits

Yea, it's a win or lose situation for them.

taking risk and invest money into a company to make it great is what you learn in economic 101

FireFalkon

do you think that investing 40 million in something that has more chance to flop than tohit is wise?

what you can't understand is how much is on the table this time, if they lose it'll not be another "ah another mediocre game, whatever..." it'll be a direct hit to sony gaming division as a whole.

I did say win or lose situation, and your opinion and gamespot reviews of the game is not greater than the world of gaming community, fanboy took the score and run with it and they got to you, because personaly I liked the game.

what the hell are you talking about?! you said that killzone 2 has little chance to be good because the first one "sucked" my previous post was made to contradict your "taking risks is normal" stand showing you the size of the risks that are being taken with killzone 2, the question "do you think that investing 40 million in something that has more chance to flop than to hit is wise?" refers to your disbelief in sony's commitment to make this game huge, i wasn't trying to bash the game

I guess I'm in a "who cares" state but I'm keeping an open mind to it and find out if I'll like it after it's released.

40 million is a huge budget... new gen games cost millions to make... so its not really a stupid idea to put in such a sum into making a game... this game has the same if not more potential then halo3... this is one of the games tht will make or break for sony they will not let it be som cheap flop...

Actually logically killzone 2 has more of a chance to hit, than to flop. Why? Guerilla games has made 2 killzone titles thus far. The first one got ratings in the 7 out of 10 range and has a strong cult following. The second one, got ratings in the 8's and 9's from most sites out and once again has a strong cult following. Do you see a pattern starting to form? Sony obviously did, and that is why they are investing in Guerilla. They saw that after getting more experience guerilla made a very successful game in Killzone Liberation, and now with a lot of extra money and resources, at the very least we should expect something good if not great.

The way I see it is if its good than its good. If not than cant do much about that. So dont really see much point of argueing about a game that we wont play for another year anyway or whenever it comes out

I'm just going to copy and paste my response from another post i made a while back. It's all still very valid.

-they have an ambitious target render they know they have to come close to, lest the media backlash begin.

-a previous game to help them know what works and what doesn't (gameplay-related, or otherwise) under their belt (so to speak),

-they have the newest advancements in understanding the PS3's hardware (practically a given for such a big title),

-And the uninterrupted time that those 2 years of silence allowed them to work on it (I know they've probably been working on it longer, but as far as the media retraction for it goes) without having to work on demos and what not.

this may be wat the original killzone was originally aspiring to be.

I mean the first KILLZONE wasn't as bad as everyone thinks. It scored a 7.5 on IGN (one of the few sites I trust for reviews) with these closing comments:

Closing Comments
You're reading about a straightforward shooter limited by technology. All the hype built up to a decent game presented in an intriguing universe and with a stunning sense of art direction. Ironically though, it's the audio and visual qualities (however faulted they may sometimes be) that save the actual underwhelming gameplay of this one from utter mediocrity.

Now even though playing Killzone is to be bombarded by bugs and glitches and technological inadequacies, the whole experience is definitely worth playing. Before you purchase it expecting Halo to spontaneously combust, just remember the profound words of our ratings guide and its 7.0 descriptor, "Killzone is a good game that has some obvious flaws."

can you explain me why there is a picture of the game on the back of it's press conference invitation then?

one thing is for sure, it's not the gaming media that is hyping it this time, they've learned their lesson from the last killzone and don't want to take any chances this time.

FireFalkon

That wasn't the press conference invite that was the Killzone invite. It's a pre-Sony conference show to show Killzone. No need to make **** up.
