NNN2004 said: GOW 3 & MAC is still a CG movies so expect them to come after 2 or 3 years .... killzone 2 was start as CG movie before 3 years and until now its not released yet ? this is sony dirty CG movies trick. |
Killzone 2 is different. Hell, the entirety of E305 was different. Almost all the games announced at E305 were barely in pre-production stages. Sony just threw out some CGI trailers to get hype for the new ps3 (for which not a single devkit had yet been released). Geurilla didn't actually begin work on Killzone 2 until AFTER the trailer was released, and they didn't being work on the game heavily until they finished working on Killzone: Liberation, six months later.
In reality, Killzone 2 has only been in full development a little under 3 years. Probably less if you take into account that Killzone: Liberation wasn't released until November 2006.
In comparison, Sony Santa Monica began working on God of War III before God of War II was even finished, and they should be over a year and a half into full production. Given God of War's traditional 2 year development cycle on the ps2, I wouldn't be surprised if God of War III took 2.5-3 years to develop, thus allowing the game to release just in time for the 2009 holiday season.
Similarly, Zipper hasn't worked on anything since their last Socom for PSP, which released at the end of 2006 (when Killzone: Liberation was released, if you recall). That would mean that MAG is also over a year and a half into development, and given that Zipper ALSO had a 2 year development cycle on the ps2, MAG could also make it out before the end of 2009.
