In light of this morning’s news, Sony has indeed confirmed that the original Killzone will be hitting the US PSN on January 24th. It will be a straight port of the PS2 title, rather than any HD update.
It’s set to cost $9.99. An EU release is still to be confirmed. Anyone tempted?

Make a HD version with trophies, add a tenner to the price and I’m sure more people would at least be tempted to buy it..

Not interested! Couldn’t they remake it using the killzone 2/3 engine?

That is a shame it is not a HD update with Trophies:( I still got it on disc for my PS2 so there is no point in me buying it + i won’t say ‘BRING BACK PS2 PLAYBACK TO A PS3 SONY!!!!!!!!!!’ because i have said it so much in the past & nothing happens. . .dam i said it again tho:D

No point in KZ having a HD remake, a PS2 classic is just as good

Which is why every HD remake is from a PS2 game as opposed to a PS1 (because that’s too hard to do)?
A PS2 Classic will just be the PS2 game, nowhere near the HD mark.
I’m still getting this though.
Plus, Killzone was definitely at the upper end of PS2 graphics.

No i mean it’s just as good to have a PS2 classic, barely point putting price up and HD-ing it.

I can see this being handy for people who started with PS3/KZ2 and want the complete story. I still have my PS2 copy which does me fine for how frequently i play it.

Hate the Killzone series, forget that and make some risks for once…
G-Police and Colony Wars would be…. great if marketed strongly just like the revival of Warhawk. Funny since now the gameplay would be fresh.

Two great games at the time, both of which I’ve thought would be brilliant for a re-imagining on PS3. One can but hope.

Just dont play G- Police now, you will be amazed at how you ever controlled the Damn thing.
fattyuk
Nah I’m out. Will just buy it for a couple of quid for the ps2
moshi
So none of you want it now, if you loved it so much why should the lack of HD and Trophies put you off!
moshi
Will teach you all to get carried away with speculations and rumours.

Was it a popular request?

I still want it.
I’d love if all my favourite PS2 games came to this format at least, if not HD, because it would mean I could finally retire the PS2!
BURNOUT 3 NEXT!

It’s a shame there’s no HD or Trophies, but that’s not going to put me off buying it.
