If you're gonna create a FPS for the PSP think Doom.
Use the dpad for movement and the analogue nub for aiming. Add up and down aiming help when moving and ignore the problem with not being able to aim up and down while moving. Chant the mantra: You wouldnt aim that well while running anyway.

Woo, now we have a "is that PSP Killzone or rendeed footage" debates all over forums when screens are released.
BTW, pedantic I know but the so called PS3 stuff was Killzone 3. 2 Is due on the PS2 next year according to info release info earlier this year. |

http://ps2.ign.com/articles/539/539350p1.html - Killzone2 not PS3
http://ps3.ign.com/articles/624/624671p1.html - GG admitted work on KZ2 was underway proir to the release of KZ There was also something on Gamespot (which I'm still hunting for, but it's been a while) which covered the existence of the PS2 / PSP Killzone2. |

Hey Killzone was not bad (so spoke the terminal Sony fanboy) - I agree that it was a victim to its own hype. I also read that Killzone 2 is due on PS2 - the PS3 version will be Killzone 3.
Sony's acquired (or close) devs usually accomplish spectacular things with its hardware (Polyphony, SotC guys, Evolution, Studio Liverpool, Sony's own devs) so we are right to expect great things. It better be, if the Playstation is to have ANY FPS credibility. |

Hmm not so sure I agree with that... what about stuff like The Getaway (probably worst game I ever bought even if it was only 4 quid) and Primal. Primal wasn't terrible but it wasn't "spectacular" either.
Having said that Ico will always be one of my best-loved games.

Both The Geaways were awful. On the other hand, Primal is special for me. This games had his problems but overall, playing Primal was magical experience. |

AI definitely killed Killzone, hype didn't. I enjoyed it on the grounds of atmosphere and just generally a pretty nicely thought out concept although poorly executed.
I dunno if I think they should be handling two games when they obviously had trouble with one though. I'd rather they poured all their effort into the PS3 version, because so much of the reason to play a Killzone game disappears when it's on a tiny screen. That said, I don't see why it'd control badly. Doom? I think Goldeneye is a better template for it. Let's move around with the four face buttons, aim with analog and shoot with R and throw grenades with L. Put zoom, action and weapon change on the D-pad. You don't jump in Killzone anyway. |

>"Killzone wasn't a Halo beater..."
The only thing killzone beat was its own hype. |

" guerilla just don't have it. after kz and that vietnam farce, i'm sorry but it seems so. "
Those games were worked on by two different teams. The people that did the Purple Haze thing are in Australia I believe (unless I am confusing them with someone else, I always get Pandemic confused with Guerilla because of their gas mask logo, my mind is quite a simple machine really). |

I've got a food processor (well, more of a blender really). Will that do the job?
