Good tech, fun worldbuilding and cool that they’re local to me but they kinda just make games I don’t particularly want to play. I had fun with the HZD wiki though, just didn’t want to do the legwork to actually unravel the story in-game.
Killzone 2 and 3 are sole of my favorites from that generation but I could not get through Horizon to save my life but I know it has its place. Solid 6 maybe a light 7.
All of them are great, HZD is amazing, can’t speak for HFW as i’m waiting for the pc port. The fact that none of the killzone games came to pc is just treason
Haven’t played the killzone games, but from what I’ve seen from the horizon franchise, and from the Devs they’re a solid team with good communication with the fan base. Few minor hiccups and controversies if you can really call ig as such, but I would definitely say they’re a good team. A solid 8 imo
8/10, Killzone 2 and 3 were top tier, Shadow Fall was a disappointment and I could really care less about Horizon, if they remaster and remake the killzone trilogy or reboot the series I would buy a PS5 instantly
I feel that they are an extremely capable studio, but their shortcomings prevent them from releasing a true masterpiece.
Killzone series were extremely great technical shooters and with an interesting lore, but the story and set pieces weren’t up to par to support that lore. I still remember KZ2 and KZ3 as great shooters, but not on the par as something like Modern Warfare for example.
Horizon is pretty much the same case, but with a paper cut copy of assassin’s creed progression along with mechanical monster hunter. The gameplay is so bloated that it becomes a very tiring third person action game and doesn’t reach the same level of quality as GoW.
They do know how to push tech beyond the limits, but I can’t say the same for their game design which is their Aquiles heel since they usually use tried and true formulas rather than taking more risks with it
I used to dominate Killzone 2 online. Some of my favorite online memories.
I’d give em a solid 8
7/10

Super 7/10.
My dad adores Horizon though. So, glad for them.

The lack of gorillas in guerrilla games seems like a major problem that keeps happening. But despite this setback they are awesome.
More gorillas please.
6/10 . I actually did not like any of these games. Technically they make good games but I’ve always found the gameplay loops and gameplay to be bland.
A solid 8. Proved they were more than just shooters, which is rare (a team being able to handle different genres). Pretty consistent too.
i Wished they did not abandon their very Cool Killzone Franchise, and Horizon 1 was an ok-Good Game too.
I would say 8.5 personally, they make great games overall but I wouldn’t say they are on the level as ND, Insomniac or Sucker Punch

Very impressive tech, fun games, I’d argue they have yet to make an all-time classic that is way up there
Never cared about Killzone games personally, but I liked Horizons. 7/10 for me

I have all of these and only finished HZD
A solid 7.5 . They create great worlds but poor protagonists .
I think they just keep improving in every way. They used to be good, now great! My fav is Forbidden West and expansion.
8/10 solid games, and I love killzone, wish they had the balls to release a killzone where you play as Helghast
8/10
10/10 if they made a new Killzone
They have amazing talent, but don’t use them to make the best that is possible
Holy shit do I miss Killzone…
Man I miss Killzone
TIL horizon devs are the ones who made killzone games.

9/10 definitely. I really enjoyed the horizon series and I played a bit of killzone and it seemed interesting.

Killzone and especially Killzone 2 were great, beautiful games.
Horizon was nice, but somehow can’t get myself to play the sequel, even though I have it lying around.
7/10, I guess.
I miss Killzone more than anything.
KZ1: 6/10, KZ2: 8/10, KZ3: 7/10, KZ SF: 6/10, both Horizons are 9/10
A strong 8.5.
