Guerrilla: Killzone 2 Impossible to Do on Xbox 360

[DTX3]

Speaking to the Official PlayStation Magazine UK, Guerrilla managing director Herman Hulst and Killzone 2 producer Steven Ter Heide claimed that Killzone 2 would be impossible to develop on the Xbox 360.

"We are taking huge advantage of the architecture of PS3. I firmly believe that what we've shown we can get out of that machine would be difficult, if not impossible, to deliver on a competing machine." Herman Hulst, said.

Producer Steven Ter Heide added, "I would say impossible."

Developed by Guerilla Games, a wholly owned subsidiary of Sony Computer Entertainment Europe, Killzone 2 is a first-person shooter created exclusively for the PS3 that follows events and action from the original Killzone for PlayStation 2.

Thats like saying, Halo 3 is impossible to do on the PS3.

Nothing is impossible.

It's just impossible because Halo is Microsoft's and Killzone is Sony's and that is why it's impossible to happen.

Hype-builder. Nothing more.

Yep, by the way you misspelled "barely" in your avatar, I thought you were talking about beer.

who knows, for all we know he's telling the truth. The PS3 may be a bitch to program for, but it seems to have the edge in graphics... Maybe Killzone takes advantage of that fact.

Or maybe he meant Killzone would be impossible to do on 360 because Killzone is meant to actually be played for more than an hour straight without having your console blow up for a second time!!!

Damn Microsoft.

Well, FWIW Naughty Dog said the same thing about Unchartered: Drake's Fortune being too large to run on the 360.

Could be a couple reasons.

1) it will not fit on a DVD
2) It is coded to take adavantage of the harddrive. Something MS should have made standard from day 1

lol anytime a dev says their game can't be done on the 360.. it averages a "bad" to "decent" review score

Re: Guerrilla: Killzone 2 Impossible to Do on Xbox 360

Because the 360 lacks a functionality similar to Sixaxis, right?

I remember Rare saying they couldn't do Viva Pinata on any other platform, because of specific Xenos features. A game designed to take advantage of a specific architecture would be difficult or even impossible to do at the same level of quality on another. That's very surprising.

Re: Guerrilla: Killzone 2 Impossible to Do on Xbox 360

I don't think anyone can argue the fact that it won't fit on a DVD. That along makes it impossible to do on the 360.

Hype or not... but if that's the case it couldn't be any more factual...
