Ah, HD PS3 remakes – the rumours just keep on rolling, and this, the latest one, is perhaps the most interesting. Picked up by German site Playfront, it appears there’s a chance that an updated, brand spanking remix of the first Killzone might be appearing alongside Killzone 3 when it releases.
When asked about the chance of a Killzone HD remake, the official Guerrilla Twitter account replied with a lovely “no comment” – followed by a cute little smiley that, extrapolating like only a Killzone 1 fanboy could, gives hope that there’s more behind the Tweet than we can possibly hope for.
The original Killzone was a great game, only hampered by an aging console, and the chance to play it again at a smoother frame-rate and a higher resolution would fit perfectly into what everyone’s hoping Sony are concentrating on with regards to these PS2 remakes. I guess we’ll just have to wait and see, then.

Thinking these might be downloadable… why release a disc every time for a single game?

Or it will ship on the KillZone 3 disc, like the Dead Space, and Medal of Honour remakes.

I think you’ll enjoy it if you haven’t played it before. I have bad memories of it personally.
I never really enjoyed it that much and I think the reason was for those two-simple words which back then could hype anything beyond relief “Halo beater” and it certainly weren’t.

*consults Games Industry Dictionary*
“No comment – When a game developer or publisher denies the existence of a project that they are working on but are not yet ready to announce. In other words, it’s more of a confirmation than a denial, expect a formal announcement soon”
Yep. :)

I would like to play the original, I never picked it up on the PS2 but absolutely love Killzone 2 on PS3. I would hope they release it before Killzon 3 rather than at the same time – or just release the single player only campaign with the Killzone 3 limited edition (like Dead Space 2 and Medal of Hono(u)r are doing).

I enjoyed the first game with each playable character having different strengths, i would love to see a HD remake.

Forget a HD upgrade, remake it in the Killzone 3 engine and I would be preordering it in a heartbeat!

Would that be even possible? Would love it if they could!
