For me, it's a yes.

Shadow fall confirmed me that guerrilla games doesn't have the talent to make a proper fps that could possibly compete with halo.

Sorry but this is a stupid reason to stop making a game. Halo is generally rated one of the best FPS ever made, even if I think it's crap. Yet because a company has made solid good games but they aren't as good as Halo means they should stop? If this was the case we would only have Halo as an FPS series on the market.

 

I do think that they should stop making Killzone, not because of critical success or failure but because I like game companies to rotate, franchises to finish and new franchises appear. Halo 1, 2 and 3 were a series and since then, MS has dragged it's corpse to produce new games in the franchise, ruining it the more it goes on. 



Hmm, pie.

I want a new Killzone 2 like game, KZ2 was my favourite shooter last gen.

I agree with the OP.

Guerrilla's debut on the PS4 should have been with a new IP.

With two studios they shoud create two new fps series. I dont want to see more of Killzone games anymore. They also need to hire some good writers, story in Killzone franchise is so bad that it's actually killing the whole series for me.

As much as I dislike FPS genre all together, and as much as I love to see a new IP from Guerrilla Games, I'd say no
Killzone just had its biggest debut in the US, it doesn't make sense to give up on a growing franchise.

They just need to step their game up.

Nay. Reviews weren't great but its still one of their better selling IPs.

They shouldn't abandon Killzone but make a new franchise as well.

Why give up on making fps?

It's a genre i'm not interested in but how many 'decent' fps are there? Seems like they are doing a pretty good job sales-wise. No competition is certainly the last thing Fps's need...

So they banned someone if they refer to a user calling him "Fanboy", but not someone who is pretty obvious trolling and flamebaiting at the same time  ? mmm ok ? O_o


Flamebaiting and trolling? this is a serious question, have you not seen killzone shadow fall's metacritic?

If you don't like it, then ignore it.

 

Btw, i did like killzone 2 and 3 to a lesser extent, but shadow fall is a failure, no matter what way you look at it.

I couldn't care less about fps and if sony abandones killzone i would not even realise it when it happens and i'd be happy GG turning away from fps and i did not thought that this thread  is is about trolling until you answered that way.

On the one hand you claim that they don't have the talent to make a good fps in your topic but on the other hand you liked kz2+3(=they have/had talent)

This is either trolling as you contradict yourself as they already have proven their talent for you with kz2,or your IQ seems pretty much out of shape right now.

Considering the Amazon reviews of the last great shooters being releasedthis year(cod,bf,Gear) is Killzone4 the best reviewed game right now.-

they already have proven their talent for you,the sales are good,the ratings ate good.

What's your point??

i enjoy mainstream shooters, its really fun and even if you lose it feels like you done well in something, but in killzone, if youre not an experienced player and are not serious about winning, youre going to lose...and in such a bad way it feels like you were in the game to absorb bullets.
even though I like it, I play killzone a lot less because its not a simple pick up and play game, there is no forgiveness. Its not a game that I would play after a long hard day at work.
having said that, it would be stupid to sacrifice it because there is a massive fanbase of that game and just because it doesnt sell as well as halo, it doesnt mean it failed.
