![]() “Call of Duty” and “Battlefield” might be the dominant online shooters, but “Shadow Fall’s” brand of exotic, space-age warfare is a welcome alternative. The gorgeous maps are complemented by a mix of cool weapons and rock-solid gunplay. “Shadow Fall’s” multiplayer portion consists of fairly traditional infantry battles, yet it’s hard to put down. The levels are often quite roomy, too, giving you space to nose around at your leisure and maneuver in combat. The campaign levels take place in the kind of stunning and gritty futuristic environments you would expect from a well-crafted sci-fi movie. “Killzone Shadow Fall” (rated Mature) is one of just a few PS4 launch exclusives and it’s a good first-person shooter. Some initial thoughts on the latest plastic box crowding my entertainment center: On a completely unrelated note, I just got a PlayStation 4. “I think at some point the disc image that we were generating was around 180 gigs,” said van der Leeuw, revealing that “if we would have put all the levels in, which we didn’t, because then the disc image generator broke, it would have been around 290 gigs of data.As responsible adults, we know it’s unwise to buy new video game consoles, because they are expensive and lure us into purchasing even more games.īut responsible adults with credit cards make terrible decisions all the time. If they had taken that approach with Shadow Fall, then the file size would have been colossal. This file size is after optimisation too – there’s been a lot of compression, as even Killzone 3 was bigger at 41.5GB on Blu-ray, due to duplicate textures and large video files in a multitude of languages. He also says that due to the more open nature of the game, the surface area is five to ten times bigger than that of Killzone 3. ![]() ![]() The reason it’s around 40GB is because, well, it’s a next generation title, and that means next-gen textures: “The bulk of it is textures,” Michiel van der Leeuw told Eurogamer, continuing “”I think we’re probably a lot larger than the other cross-generation games, because we have no assets that have been made to a lower spec.” Sony’s new PlayGo system will allow PS4 games to be played well before the hefty download has finished, with Killzone Shadow Fall ready to play after just 7.5GB of the 39.7GB download is complete – that’s less than 20% of the total file size. ![]()
