Killzone 3 Action Figures

It all started with G.I. Joe and now it’s moving on to Killzone 3.  Men all over the world have taken pride in their action figures and now Killzone 3 fans and even action figure collectors can do the same thing as well.  

Today will be the release of Killzone Series 1 which is an action figure series involving the Helghast Assault Infantry and of course the Helghast Sniper.  DC Unlimited is world renowned for their collectibles especially with last years release of plastic renditions of Ratchet & Clank characters and Resistance characters.

The action figures themselves are about 6.5 inches tall and they are extremely intricate and have an intense amount of detail put into them.  Though with the release of the Helghast Edition of Killzone 3 you would have received a copy of the partially cloaked Helghast Sniper, this new action figure is completely uncloaked.

You can pick them up from one of your local comic book shops or through online retailers today!

Killzone 3 being used with Xbox Kinect

With the new release of Killzone 3 and the semi-new release of the Xbox Kinect, someone came up with the brilliant idea of merging the two together. Killzone 3, already enabled for the Playstation Move, is a PS3 exclusive and so hearing that someone was able to use Microsoft’s tools on Sony’s system is quite interesting in our eyes.

If you don’t believe me, take a look at this video below. He seems to be able to manage through the Playstation menus fairly easily but once the gameplay starts, things are far less controlled but it still works, kind of….

Killzone 3 ALREADY in Wal-Mart Stores

I was surfing the net when I came across a surprsing image. The picture revealed the Killzone 3 box at Wal-Mart already on shelves! The Rumor was that this box was just a dummy box, however I followed up on this and found a youtube video where someone had purchased a copy and did an un boxing video. According to Wal-Mart's policy, if they have something on the shelves they must sell it to their customers even if the computer reads its not available for purchase. So everyone go check out your local Wal-Mart and you might find Killzone 3 in your Playstation 3 earlier than the expected Feb. 22nd release!

Below is the youtube video I mentioned.

Socom 4 Beta confirmed with Killzone 3!

     

Killzone Official Box Art with Socom dog tags

A few days ago, it was confirmed by the Playstation blog that early access to the Socom 4 beta can be obtained by simply purchasing a copy of Killzone 3, which has a release date of Feb. 22. Socom 4 has yet to provide us with any online footage up to this point in time, so if you would like to get your hands on it early this could be your way in! There are also other ways you will be able to be a Socom 4 beta tester. The European Socom blog has confirmed that their Playstation Plus members will receive beta codes, therefore, it is highly possible that we will be seeing that same access for the American Playstation Plus members in the near future.

It has been confirmed by Chris Roper, Zipper Interactive community manager, that there will be other free ways to access the Socom 4 beta and that if you are a Socom 4 fan and follow the game you should be able to acquire a code.
