Do you want to see a Prequel in the Killzone universe on PS4?

Yes, during the third World War (2050) 30 31.25%
 
Yes, during the first Extrasolar War (2200) 20 20.83%
 
Yes, but during another period 5 5.21%
 
No, I want to see a sequel 12 12.50%
 
No, they should end it with ShadowFall 29 30.21%
 
Total:96

Without reading it I disagree solely based on how much you're trying to overstate it. Best ever? I mean, in the end it's subjective anyway. However, it still seems extreme to put it so high up.

Gonna have to disagree even when considering the backstory. What kills me, and what others have pointed out, is that up to this point Sony and Guerrilla Games have somehow managed to only give us mediocre single-player narrative and characters in a universe that could tell some outstanding stories. I'm really hoping that Shadow Fall gives us something interesting on that front. All of the other games have pretty much been little more than, "See those guys over there?! F**K them and everyone who looks like them! WWWWAAAAAAARRRRRR!!!".



I love Killzone!! It's the only reason why I play video games. The story is awesome and the graphics are second to none! I'm ONLY buying the PS4 for Shadow Fall and I only bought the Vita because of Killzone Mercenary! Bring it on newbs!!



I havent read your post, but based on messageboard statement I will say you are wrong. GJ



Getting an XBOX One for me is like being in a bad relationship but staying together because we have kids. XBone we have 20000+ achievement points, 2+ years of XBL Gold and 20000+ MS points. I think its best we stay together if only for the MS points.

Nintendo Treehouse is what happens when a publisher is confident and proud of its games and doesn't need to show CGI lies for five minutes.

No way...
But I have to admit, Helghast design is beyond epic. Coolest looking characters ever.






This.... o wait.. I posted images from Red Specatcles and Jin Roh aka the Kerberos Saga (Manga/Anime)

The Writer of Killzone is brilliant, the Artist of Killzone is brilliant, the Director of Killzone is an idiot, we're stuck with Rico and other dumb asses just shooting Helghast soldiers because its edgy and appeals to short attention FPS gamers who say "HURRAH!" and have an unhealthy secret gay crush with John Cena.

This issue is the same for Warhammer games, the games are about generic space marines killing aliens, but the backstory is about nations and emperors and civilizations, want to kill your story? make it a shooter.

Halo also has a good backstory but that back story was written after the first game (after halo 2) so it was easier to implement.



I've never really seen KZs storyline to be anything fancy, it's about what u expect from a basic action movie.

Lot of explosions and Rico dropping as many F-bombs as possible.



I've played a bit of KZ2 but never realised it had an awesome story. My bad.

While I must admit I do not know a lot about Killzone I highly doubt it has a more interesting universe and backstory than Halo.


For Sony supporters nothing is impossible because kaz and cerny said it 



Not sure about the most interesting ever, but I love me some Killzone.
