Killzone was one of the hottest games for the PlayStation 2, and the epic sequel that was Killzone 2 followed it with a great force. The series had a slow, gritty and powerful vibe that is a far cry from the frantic run and gun of games like Call of Duty and I absolutely love it. The Third entry in the series came on the PlayStation 3, a graphical juggernaut and it offered some brutal gameplay and hardcore online play, however I didn’t really love the game and it fell into many of the typical tropes that most of last generations shooter did, as a result it just didn’t excite me and I didn’t really feel compelled to keep playing.

Shadow fall is a launch title for the PlayStation 4, so it has great potential to be a system seller for Sony and it also has a lot to prove given the track record of the previous titles in the series. There are many highly popular shooters on the market today and with Killzone not following the yearly update release schedule that many other companies follow, there was a fear that it could have fallen out of favour with much of the gaming community.
