Maybe its the Resistance franchise. I would buy a 4th game:)

The gameplay is fine. They just really need to overhaul the lore/storytelling aspects.

Yes! ;p It's perfect on Vita leave it be :D

KillZone is a possibility, but I more wonder if they might be looking back to one of the older big name games. A new Getaway as someone else mentioned would be absolutely epic :D

On the brightside, Mercenary on Vita was a much much better game than Shadowfall. So it would be in pretty good hands with GC.

I would have preferred Cambridge take on a new IP, but I guess Sony needs to have an exclusive FPS franchise and they seem like a good fit.

This is exactly what Killzone needs: A new home for the series!

Another Killzone after the shit that Killzone: SF was?

The lore is good, it just isn't being told in the most competent manor.  I have been saying for years that all they need to do is hire a proper writer and director.  It looks like they did for their new IP!

I haven't played Shadowfall, but calling the Vita game "spectacular" isn't exactly correct.  For a portable FPS, it's probably the best one available, but that doesn't make it good.  There are better FPS and TPS titles rated worse that were better experiences experiences.  Killzone Mercenary gained its overrated praise becausue it's a portable title that works as an FPS rather than actually being good.  One console/pc game that is bashed as being one of  the worst fps in existence, far from it, was Duke Nukem Forever, a game that was far and away better than Mercenary, even if it's not terribly good.

If Mercenary was on consoles instead of a portable system, the critics would have destroyed the game. 

Conversely, if Mercenary wasn't constrained to the Vita then the developer would likely have produced a different KZ game. Thats why that line of reasoning is flawed.
