Forums - Sony Discussion - Sony: Killzone 2 not going 3D

Lastgengamer on 05 April 2010

Sony’s said that the video from Qore on Friday which apparently confirmed 3D support for a whole slew of first-party titles, including Killzone 2, was just for “demonstration purposes” only.

Other titles mentioned in the clip from the US PSN  magazine included Gran Turismo 5, LittleBigPlanet and more.

But the firm said in a statement: “That last feature included interviews, footage from CES 2010, and a brief montage of SCEA titles intended as examples of what 3D gaming might encompass. It is hard to do justice to just how amazing 3D gaming looks in a 2D presentation—even in an HD product such as Qore.

Unfortunately, our feature did not make it clear that the 2D game footage was included for demonstration purposes only. We apologize for the erroneous inference that 3D versions of LBP, Wipeout HD, Killzone 2, Gran Turismo 5 or Super Stardust HD are in production.”

So keep dreaming about living that Helghast 3D dream, kiddlewinks.

Thanks, IGN

Well isn't that a letdown.

Did people think this was a possibility? Given what we know about the additional processing requirements of 3-D, Killzone 2 with it's superlative graphics would seem an unlikely candidate.

GT5 is confirmed 3D, so Killzone 2 is not out of the question.

No...

Just because one game does something in a completely different engine doesn't mean another game can do it.

whew, i'm glad, i was afraid they would spend all their time on Killzone 2-3D instead of working on Killzone 3 !



“It appeared that there had even been demonstrations to thank Big Brother for raising the chocolate ration to twenty grams a week. And only yesterday, he reflected, it had been announced that the ration was to be reduced to twenty grams a week. Was it possible that they could swallow that, after only twenty-four hours? Yes, they swallowed it.”

Yeah, I find it pretty odd any game is being made in 3D since there are, what, five 3D TV's on the market and they're all incredibly overpriced.  It just seems like such a giant wasted effort at this point in time.  In three years it might be worthwhile (though I frankly doubt it), but right now, who are you trying to please?

-edit-

And just to save people the time, please don't point out there are more than five 3D TV's on the market, I was being sarcastic and I don't care.
