Unless they do some major changes to gameplay, story, and a way to make itself unique, then Killzone 2 will just be like a big-budget movie that flops. Let's hope they can actually pull off something special instead of the glitch-ridden, cookie-cutter gameplay we saw from Killzone 1.Kizzle28

you sound like you played the game.

epic movie wasnt THAT bad...  although yea, it was horrible. Im just saying the how large the budget for killzone 2 is. So it should bbe good.Felix_120192

It's probably worth mentioning.

Oh, and don't take that for anything more than what I meant it to be, and that is to note that while the PS3 is indeed very powerful, it is also incredibly expensive to develop for. In fact, a lot of smaller developers are simply unable to develop for the system because of the cost. I'm hoping that Sony will work out a way to reduce the development cost because I really do want to see more games on the system."Felous1

Thats definitely an aspect nintendo has an advantage in, because the wiis development structure is so similar to the gamecubes smaller developers will be able to use the same budgets as last gen and there will be more games for the system

It's probably worth mentioning.

Yeah but sony doesn't have the startup cost felous because they own the devkits and the software required already to make the game so pumping 20million plus into a game is alot of money. Lost planet spent 20million on the developement and 20million on market and though its made capcom a profit it was alot of money to pump into a next gen game.

How much did they spend so far ? Ubisoft spent 10 million + on Red Steel.Felous1

300 had a budget of 65 million. I'm sure top of the line games surpass that.Liquid_47

 No, don't even get that close at all.

I actually thought the Original Kill zone was decent...

Halo Killer no but then again I don't even like Halo 

Oh and by the way dont ever use Epic Movie as an example ever again

otherwise Ill zip down my jeans and take a Piss on your face

You could have just used Underworld or Equilibrium as both those movies cost 20 million a piece 

Budget is no guarantee of success, case in point Waterworld.

And that's not an unprecedented amount to spend on a game's budget either. 

20M for a movie is nothing. 

Epic Movie and Date Movie are absolute trash. Just thought I'd mention it. ferretzor

Add it to fear and it does equal a good game.

I would hope it has a bigger budget, both of those movies were awful.Ibacai

:lol: Waterworld

that movie wasn't actually so bad. It was just that people were so hyped because it was the most expensive movie ever made. 

I've seen better movies than Epic Movie and Date Movie on newgrounds.com.

Those two movies relied far too heavily on other movies and the jokes weren't great while I'm seeing original jokes being made on very low budgets. One of my personal favourites on newgrounds is A Men's Room Monologue, pointing out how much public washrooms can suck and people that make them suck. There's also a series known as Neurotically Yours or to be more specific, Foamy's Rants which points out many retarded things and people in the world which are funny because they're true. If you're not in for a good laugh, there's also many series with better stories than half the mutated, contorted, and downright **** I see in theaters. Broken Saints is one of those series. If movies aren't your thing, there's also innovative games being made out there such as Blockhead the Game. Music artists (ParagonX9 being a personal favourite) are also on newgrounds creating music that isn't like that trash I hear everyday from so-called pop-stars, rockers, and rappers.

There are very talented and creative people out there that are born poor and unlucky and the only way they can convey their ideas is through Flash. There are also untalented people out there that just happen to be born lucky and spit out garbage all the time and thus, should quit their job and do something else that'll benefit technology, the economy, culture, society or anything else that isn't coming to my mind due to me watching The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya. If not, I hope their heads will roll.

To make things short, it doesn't matter how much money is put into a book, television series, movie, or game if there are morons that can't make good use of it.

Just hope the developers of Killzone 2 know how to spend money efficiently.

Sorry to sound like a flaming fanboy, but it's my opinion and therefore from my perspective, the truth.

Unless they do some major changes to gameplay, story, and a way to make itself unique, then Killzone 2 will just be like a big-budget movie that flops. Let's hope they can actually pull off something special instead of the glitch-ridden, cookie-cutter gameplay we saw from Killzone 1.Kizzle28

Well they are spending major cash, so I expect major changes

Wow....

If your going to compare killzones budget to a movie, at least compare it to a good one.

Date Movie was the worst movie i have ever seen...

 Epic movie looked exactly the same possibly worse (How can you make fun of Snakes on a Plane?)

The budget is around 21 million. Harbadakus

How big was Gear's budget? Oh yeah it was 10 million and it got a 9.6.:?smokeydabear076

[QUOTE="Harbadakus"]The budget is around 21 million. project343

Epic Movie and Date Movie were horrid beyond my wildest nightmares. If budget = quality for games then Killzone 2 could have been funded with a piece of stirng and it will be better than those eye cancer causing monstrocities.Private_Vegas

Gears of war had a small budgetdanneswegman

[QUOTE="danneswegman"]Gears of war had a small budgetNinja-Vox

Exactly why does everone just ignore the fact that the unreal engine took TONS OF MONEY TO MAKE.  Gears of war cost 10 million + the cost of the unreal engine.  That could easily push it to 20 million when you take all of the factors in.  If we minus out the money it takes to make the killzone engine we could maybe knock off 20 million dollars to make the game.  So then it might be on Gears of war level.....
