SCE Cambridge Studio, the team behind Medievil and LittleBigPlanet PSP, are working on the portable version of Killzone. The shooter is heading to Sony's "Next Generation Portable" and is in "good hands", according to Guerrilla Games.
"Our sister studio in Cambridge is doing that," revealed Killzone producer Steven ter Heide. "We’ve been working with them very closely for a couple of years now. They’ve been helping us develop actual Killzone content for all the games.
"We feel like the game is in good hands. We’ll still oversee it because the universe is something we’ve built up, we know the war and the rules that have been established, but they’re driving the development."
Cambridge is generally pretty damn good at what it does, so this should be a fun ride. Oh, and why not read our Killzone 3 review while you're here?

I suppose next you'll tell me that the development team who did Tomba is no more.
Don't worry they are working on a PS3 project, they just posted vacancies for couple of position for this PS3 project

"We are looking for a senior level programmer to support the gameplay engineering team on an exciting new PlayStation® 3 project. "
Studio Cambridge is biggest SCEE studio, they are Sony Santa Monica of Europe. They assist in development, work on their projects, couple of them, etc.
I heard they have couple of projects in work. MedEvil 3 could be one of them.
i hope so too. I don't know how Killzone 3 will end but i've always felt a bit sympathetic towards the Helghast and want to stab Rico in the eye as a helghast soldier
I don't care if Killzone can cure cancer. MediEvil>Killzone. Cambridge studios hasn't came up with a new IP in a while, which is scary. They've been doing low profile ports LBP and making spinoffs. They need either Medievil 3 or that new IP Dildo (classy name btw) was talking about. So, there.

Kinda like you hating on good games going to 360? Or PC? Or Wii? Or DS?
Another thing, you hate on people when they give their OPINION, but when you give an OPINION and we hate on it, its against the law? Your word is perfect and no one else? Get the fuck out bro. I'm entitled to my opinion, xbot or otherwise. You are as well, but you--along with other ps3 fanboy twatfuckers like yourself--abuse that privelige by slandering every console. You tink you're helping your team win? Fuck off, bro. You're actually hindering.
Yes, I may hate on something, but not ALL THE DAMN TIME. I give my props every now and then because I'm not a douche.
You, sir, are a douche. Who needs to leave or grow the fuck up, bro.
Ya dig? Can you dig it?
i honestly want to know what your top 5 favorite playstaion games are. but since you hate sony youre probably gonna say "none, they all suck, have bad grfx, stupid ai and addon waggle"
actually i want to know your favorite 360 games as well. how about your top 5 games of all time for that matter. and im talking consoles not PC.
I loved Killzone 1
I loved Killzone 2
I loved Killzone Liberation
I loved the Killzone 3 beta
I have high hopes for this new portable Killzone! (obviously)
Portable doses of my favorite games is what I likes in my handhelds, and more portable Killzone makes me horny to get my mits on the NGP.
What has Cambridge done well?
