Killzone 2 E3 2005 vs Playstation Day 2008

marinelife9 - 57 days 18 hours ago

Wow they're right. The 2008 demo does look better. I gues Phil Harrison wasn't lying after all when he said in a lot of ways it looks better now.

To think that this is in Alpha stage is saying something.

It will be like Crysis of console.

lol they took the worst part of that fake trailer and took the best part of gamers day stuff. In those screens it definitely looks better but there are areas of that fake trailer that can't be done on even the highest end pc.

From those screens though, hands down it surpasses but when you watch the old video and compare it to this, you'll see the diff

Meh...the only thing I'll give to the 2005 trailer is how good the ground looks on the bridge with the rubble, cracks, and the crater, everything else I have to give to the new trailer...it looks better than 2005.

I have to disagree sonarus. The 05 trailer, the characters looked plastic. The only thing amazing about that was the crash at the end and rocket launcher firing.

The real game looks stunning.

Yes the old one the characters looked plastic. Thats it. Characters are improved. Watch the video and you will see what i mean. Old vid can't be done on some pc's yet. The explosions the fire effects too much of that stuff is impossible with todays tech. The screens showed here like i said don't show the parts where the old trailer reigns supreme.

The faces look better but the armor/clothes are no where near as detailed as the fake trailer.

Don't get me wrong KZ2 is the most impressive looking game on a console but pound for pound against that trailer, not even the mighty crysis can pull thru

Can't watch this right now, I'll have to check it out when I get home, but if they really outdid the '05 trailer - and it sounds like they did - then color me impressed.

I wonder if that means Motorstorm 2 will outdo Motorstorm's original CG trailer?

I'll agree with you on the armor as well, but you gotta admit they're really close, they're right there...I wouldn't say they're nowhere near as detailed as the old trailer, but the old trailer's armor actually looks like it has weight and volume to it whereas the new trailer armor looks a little flat, at least on Rico. With that said, we have until February '09 and I think it's possible and enough time for them to clearly surpass the CGI at first glance without needing a side-by-side.

It surpassed that 2005 CGI and I don't see how anyone can deny it. It looks better in pretty much every way. They actually did it. They not only met it (E3 2007) but now have surpassed it. Can't wait for this game.

F@ck the screens look at the video comparison. Not even close.

sonarus - 57 days 17 hours ago

Exactly marceles. I just saw the fake trailer again and it doesn't even look as good as i remember. I saw we wait for better gameplay vids or another official trailer. It seems like they toned down the blood effects a bit. Maybe because of rating.

Anyway game looks fantastic without a doubt but there are just some parts of that trailer that can't be done. 9months the game will probably be polished more and look even better than it does which is a scary thought really:D

@sonarus

I don't agree with you on this one.
I think that in many ways the 08 version comes out on top. Fire looks terrible in the E305 version.
I do think the explosions look better on the E305 version. But it does not look like something that cant be done. Hell I think it has been done. I think the explosions in UT3(PS3 version) and crysis look amazing. Absolutely stunning. Both equal or better than KZ2 E305.
I do believe that this will one of the things that they will improve graphically in the next 9 months.

@1.10

That video was from the 2007 E3. They need to compare the 2005 E3 video to the latest video which is now the PS Gamer's Day 2008 videos. Obviously the latest trailer shows vast improvements over the 2007 trailer. And again I will reiterate, they've still got 9 months to go!

STFU about "fake trailer" sh*t.

2005 E3 was a target trailer...TRAILER.

Any intelligent gamer who saw the video for the first time would have known this. Noway, would GG have a in-game available in 2005. Even the great Insomniac wouldn't have been able to pull that feat off in such a short amount of time.

In game was confused by an interviewer with a Resistance demo....which was gameplay.

enough said.

Damn fanboys and their rants.

In case people didn`t know.....you can D/L the PS day vids on PSN and the KZ2 trailer is there somewhere to watch on your HDTV.

It`s the "Play is hiding and waiting" video.

killzone looks better than crysis, don't just look at the jungle levels in crysis look at it all (indoor rooms) etc. and killzone looks better

people, we don't need to say best looking game on console anymore. its simply the best looking game. Ive been comparing the two trying to find out what people are talking about. crysis has this "pasted on" look to it while killzone looks so tight and clean.

and yes i was looking at it on high end pcs i just don't see why crysis is better, great looking I'll agree but better??? just an opinion tho

Me, I'll take a few more FPS games please :) Mind you I'm a FPS whore, I hate having a "character" on screen, FPS just seems to draw me in more.

I wish this game had the option for fps to 3rd person view.

AlterEgo - 57 days 18 hours ago

why FPS games couldn't have the OPTION to be shown in 3rd person?

all it [seems like it] would take...is a simple pull back from the camera and fix it in that position. bam. presto. instant purchase for a lot of games i crossed over simply because (back in the day) i HAATTEEED first person games.

I'd MUCH rather play 3rd person (a la MGS/SOCOM/Warhawk/Ghost Recon)

but as of Rainbow Six: Vegas, COD4, Portal...and a few others...I've kind of started to appreciate FPS for what they are, even though I really don't see how the game is hindered by having the player showing.

My gripe is...the character is ALREADY MODELED! Like in some games...there's mirrors where you can see your character fully detailed...or like in R6: Vegas...going into cover...the player is already modeled completely...but there's still only an FPS option.

Same in this scenario. Of COURSE I'm getting Killzone 2...and probably a LOT of other FPS games that come out, but I still prefer 3rd Person shooters.

Actually, can anybody explain why the 'option' isn't there? I do think I've seen some games with the option...though not very many. It seems like a VERY small addition that would make a world of difference because now you have 2 target audiences instead of one. Me and ALL my friends IRL are JUST now getting into fps due to COD4.
