Sounds 4d for the dx10 version.

Hope they can deliver.

So what visible differences will we see in this version that we won't in the PS3 version?

That isn't a facetious question. I'm just interested.

On the 360 thread for this game some are saying the interactive foliage wont be on the console version. But that could be flaming.

I think the dx10 specific features will be the only things missing from the console versions if they can't find a way to programme them in.
Nothing if anything that will detract from the gameplay itself.

Flaming? Did you watch the video? No interactivity was evident.

Wow fishy.

Read the question you asked on that thread.
You know, the one where i stuck up for you (clearly a mistake) now read alcohog's comments in that thread. Thats what i meant.

Gods sake people are sensitive. I know the foliage didn't move. I did see the clip, but thats not the final version and maybe it will be added later.

Now I was talking about peoples comments not the bloody video.

lol... sorry my comment above was not being aggressive. It's only aggressive if you assume it that way. Should of been more clear, typing fast @ work :)

Interactive foliage WILL be in the final console versions. The implementation of the game to consoles is not one year old yet. There are some scans here at N4G from a PSM interview in which the devs state that the Cell's SPEs are beyng used for vegetation regrouth. Thats means interactivity. They have also stated in a recent video that ALL the features from PC will be in console versions. Obviously, the PC will always look better, but thats expected.

So yes, whoever is stating that console vesions won't have vegetation interactivity is just spreading unsubstantiated lies. I dare them to show a link where that is stated by the devs. If this was the final game state we would be playing it already.

No problem fishy.

I know how work is.
I swear if they didn't pay me at the end of the week I wouldn't do it.

I read it the wrong way so no offence taken and hopefully none taken from you.
It's just a lot of people on here are so quick to cause trouble sometimes I interpret that for everyone.
Even when it's not the case.

expected for a pc exclusive at once, and lead platform, killzone 2 on pc would look like golden eye in pre alpha stage for N64, and probably not even that, probably would be looking like syphone filter for ps1, but thats expected, play beyond.

you are so wrong.

When games are developed for the pc they can work to tech higher than whats out there. There are less limitations most come from the pc owners themselves when playing the game due to not having good enough hardware.

With consoles there is a specific hardware setup and they cant look to "beyond". for gamers this is great as they don't need to upgrade and can play the same game as everyone else. For developers this has advantages as they know their boundaries but can limit them.

With killzone they could make it look so much better but the consumers wouldn't yet have the tech to play it so it looks like it does on the ps3.

I guess in a way your right about it looking like a ps1 game.
But when the hardware is good enough it could make the ps3 version look like a ps1.

PC games will always have the edge... eventually.
