I have to say Rage looks great I love the color, but I prefer Killzone. Rage and KZ3 are the front runners so far for best graphics, and Crysis PC version.

DualConsoleOwner4852d ago (Edited 4852d ago )

I guess KZ3 looks THAT good.

Amazing how PS3 can be compared to PC. and it seems like xbox 360 is out of the picture in terms of graphics.

hakis864852d ago

Again, why do they post tiny screens??

zootang4852d ago

How come we never see any of these for 360 exclusives?

SasanovaS19874852d ago

you people still havent learned, notice how they compare all these random multiplatform games only prior to their release. but once they come out, its nothing but average crap. remember crysis 2 this crysis 2 that, then it comes out and your like, wtf is this? same will be with rage.

Inside_out4852d ago (Edited 4852d ago )

...only one is really pushing the envelope and that is Rage. From just aesthetic perspective, they are both well made and looking with Rage on PC probably far ahead in terms of specs but even on consoles, running 60 fps in an open world where Id claims you won't fight the same enemy types twice or even have the same environments...Rage seems more impressive.

Killzone is basically a point A to point B shooter. It seems from the clips I've seen to fit in nicely with the COD, MOH or battlefield type of games. Rage is a genre buster with many elements taken from fps's, RPg's and some adventure aspects...lets take a look...

First up the awesome looking Killzone...PS3 best graphics BY FAR...this puppy is 30 mins long so sit back and hit the hd option...

http://www.youtube.com/watc...

Next up Rage and it's many years in the making, 60 fps, hand painted, hand crafted and never see the same enemy type twice, open world masterpiece...we hope...this one is ONLY 12 mins...lol...again, in hd sharpens everything up...

http://www.youtube.com/watc...

BTW...let me add this monster to the comparison...a personal fav...Gears 3...hit the hd and crank it...

zootang4852d ago (Edited 4852d ago )

Same old, same old! One day a multi platform title will beat a PS3 exclusive graphically or maybe not. I think not!

MNicholas4852d ago (Edited 4852d ago )

Look at the costumes. Nearly all the detail is just a flat 2D painted texture.

Forget highly optimized exclusives like Killzone 3.

Rage isn't even close to matching your run-of-the-mill multiplatform game such as Lost Planet 2, Dead Space 2 or Mass Effect 2.

They just blow Rage out of the water.

metalanime4852d ago (Edited 4852d ago )

if you look at some of the screen shots that compare kz3 to rage, its actually the kz characters that look flat and painted. look at the 2nd screen shot in this article. The rage character in the armor suit really pops out and has a sense of depth. The helghast actually looks really flat if you look at the details.

The real killer4852d ago

I agree, but if you can see, Killzone 3 is allot more of happining around, and the explosion of Killzone looks more real compared with Rage.

In other words, my opinion Killozne 3 beat Rage in all fronts, grafichs.visuals and ligthing.

I my god look that atmosphere from Killzone 3, beat easy that from Rage.

Both Games are great, PS3 is just the ame in grafichs, if not better, the only thing what PC has advance is the framerate and the resolution :)

MWH4852d ago (Edited 4852d ago )

both are great but i'd go with Rage. id software are not just game developers, they are technology developers who pushes the industry's envelop every now and then and quite simply they invented the genre (Wolfenstein, Doom, Quake).

@cez of rage
well said but unfortunately and as you can see you live in a fanboyism infested community and with a mostly plastic generation of gamers, a gaming world similar to Rage's actually. sometimes it feels as if you're almost talking to a void but there are still some of us in that void, and we can hear each other.

ABizzel14852d ago (Edited 4852d ago )

This shouldn't be an argument or a fight. They're both completely different games. Like every said Killzone is a straight forward shooter, even though they've said Killzone 3 is going to be far more open than Killzone 2 was.

Rage on the other hand is and Open World, FPS/RPG. Rage is better compared to something like Mass Effect, Fallout, Fary Cry, and Borderlands than Killzone.

Rage is amazing and the best looking open world game hands down, but since Killzone is a more focused game it doesn't have to have as much data which is why it can look so good. But arguing about Killzone not being open world is still a tough call, because if I recall each level in Killzone 2 was 2GB and with the recent announcement that Killzone 3 uses 3 times the amount of textures, better lighting, better character models, and larger battles you can't just say that "Game X" is this while "Game Y" is that. There a reason why Killzone 3 filled a 50GB Blu Ray disc. It's a graphical beast, with great audio. Don't knock Killzone graphically it deserves the praise it gets, and so does Rage.

MWH4852d ago

well said. if there were more like you and cez-of-rage this community would've been better and more fun to communicate with. good luck with the numbers of disagrees and bubbles down.

ABizzel14852d ago

lol thank you, I don't care if someone bubbles me down, or if some dislikes my comments. I say what I feel, and that's that. I love games, and while I prefer the PS3 as my console of choice, I also love my 360, my PSP, my DS, and my new Wii (yes I have a Wii again).

They all have their strengths and weaknesses, but they all have unique games and experiences that make them different and all worth owning. We need more gamers on n4g and less fanboys. From this point on we all need to make a stand for that. Stop being a fanboy and be a gamer.

Eyeco4852d ago

TBH i dont really care which one looks great i just wanna play the games, graphics are so irreleavnt now, Fallout 3 is one of my all time favourites and it looks like a$$, these days i dont look forward to graphics.

FACTUAL evidence4852d ago

KZ3 looks like CG compared to rage....Don't get me wrong rage looks hot, but kz3 just got that groove son...

I'll wait for both the games to come out but for now, KZ 3 is the winner.

byeGollum4852d ago

funny how you say its too early to decide yet you made a decision lol... you scared to say rage looks better? you don't want to be eaten alive *giggles*

ABizzel14852d ago (Edited 4852d ago )

Your comment makes no kind of sense. He says it's to early to decide but for now KZ 3 is the winner.

If you could comprehend then he's basically saying KZ3 looks better for now, but Rage could look better when it comes out. Pick up a book once in a while and read instead of playing games all the time.

junk3d4852d ago

As long as RAGE looks that good and plays at the promised 60fps on the consoles we may have a new visual powerhouse to contend with...and it is cross platform. But only time will tell.

GamingForever4852d ago

I will choose both because I just love trying out all games!

Up there with the top tier in the industry. Love Guerrilla Games - Horizon Burning Shores is simply STUNNING.

1Victor373d ago

Can’t wait for their next franchise

SullysCigar373d ago

Same. They nailed it with Horizon. The trouble is I also want a new Killzone! Can't I just have it all?!

jznrpg373d ago

I’m with you I want Horizon 3 , Killzone and new IPs

badz149372d ago

I have yet to play Burning Shores as I just started Forbidden West (bought at launch, just unwrapped last weekend LOL) and playing on PS5.

man...I still can't believe the graphics especially now I'm playing it on my LG OLED. that graphics and with stable performance backing it up, GG really is the master of their craft!

Vengeance1138373d ago

32.7M sales in the Horizon franchise! With 8.4M coming from Forbidden West alone! Truly a hugely successful game and franchise as a whole. Looking forward to Horizon III

Shane Kim373d ago

That's kind of a huge drop though. It's only been two games.

VersusDMC373d ago

One year after realease HZD sold 7.6 million.

https://www.noobfeed.com/ne...

So not a drop off.

Unless you're saying a HFW should have sold as much now as HZD sold in 5 years?

Vengeance1138373d ago

It's been 3 games, this includes Call of the Mountain. Also no, its a great improvement over HZD.

solideagle373d ago

lol you are comparing:

HZD: 28 February 2017 - May 2023 (6 years+)

HFW: 18 February 2022 - May 2023 (1 year+)

We will see if it surpass original number.

Phoenix76373d ago

@shane, 2 full main games, 2 DLC add ons, 1 VR spin off game, oh and a an official LEGO set.

thesoftware730373d ago (Edited 373d ago )

Yooo, when I first saw that Killzone 1 footage at E3, my friends my brothers and I were like, Holy shit! When it came out, it didn't look exactly like it, but we sunk so many hours into 1 & 2.

I even liked Killzone: SF, it was a spectacle to look at, and even today it looks good. I hope they make a new one. Can you imagine how that will look, and they can get some modern FPS pointers from Bungie.

blacktiger372d ago

thank you fps lover, I'm with you

talocaca373d ago

Such a wonderful studio. They deserve all their success.

The Decima Engine is absolute 🔥 I'm just mad they have abandoned Killzone.

OzzY-waZZy373d ago (Edited 373d ago )

Kinda wish they move on from Horizon tbh.

potatoseal373d ago

They are probably working on mutiple projects. One of them is Horizon 3, but another is a multiplaer game and probably somehting else.

Imalwaysright373d ago

There were rumours that they were working on a Socom reboot.

Still looks secure 2 gens later... one of my favorite ps3 moments. With 3D and move the game is on another level

MadLad1124d ago

PC almost always ends up the best place to play games, even if it takes a while.

What would you rather play decades down the line? A game at a fixed resolution and frame, considering you have a working disc, and the hardware?
Or run it on an emulator that can update the experience all around, and let you use whatever control input you prefer?

If you insist on the former, it's really only for the sake of nostalgia.

Applejack1124d ago

I disagree. The main draw for consoles has always be the simplicity of just putting the disc in / downloading it and playing without worrying about anything else. The average person just wouldn’t want to deal with emulation even though it’s very important for preservation.

Terry_B1124d ago

Even emulators are super simple to use.

jukins1124d ago

Youre getting flak because people on here thibk of themselves as pc wizards. But honestly most poeple try and go get emulators and romz they end up with malware.. yes theyre "easy" if you know the basics but alot of people dont. That said the fact that its taken nearly 20 years to get a sustantially better experience for ps3 games than on its native system shows the complexity of getting bc to work. Sony, if they have any intention, should just invest in a vastly better psnow experience.

1124d ago
Vegamyster1124d ago

jukins

Most people who emulate don't get malware, you'd have to be going to some weird sites for that to happen, heck years ago people were getting sketchier ad's resulting in malware warning on this site if you didn't have a ad-blocker lol.

SinkingSage1124d ago

Can't get malware if you legally dump your own games, which you should.

Rachel_Alucard1123d ago (Edited 1123d ago )

That's fine if that's the main draw, but it doesn't make it a better experience, just a preference. Having the freedom to do the things you can do on PC is what the appeal of PC is. Buying a game on PC means you never have to worry about the console makers just deciding the next hardware shouldn't support the generation anymore, which means everything you bought is stuck on that hardware instead of moving up with everything else. Nintendo uses this tactic to keep reselling the same games over and over at inflated prices. Sony cut all previous gens off the PS4 and sold it back to people in a poor attempt with PSnow. While the PS5 supports PS4 games, that may not be the case in the next gen after this. No to mention shutting off all the previous stores and updates completely. Even MS stopped making new BC titles at some point, so now there's a big list with 17 pages of titles that are not playable on Xbone and are just trapped on older gen. That's not a problem on PC, the reverse happens where you only have to worry if your hardware can play the newest releases at ultra with no issue.

MadLad1123d ago

Did you purposely miss the entire point of my post?

Inverno1124d ago

Well that's the beauty of still owning a retro console tho. Those who usually complain about emulation are just being blindly loyal to a company. Emulation is great for many reason, but if I still owned the console then I disagree nothing beats plugging it back in and going down a nostalgia trip

Top 10 PS3 Games We Hope Come Back On PS5

While Xbox has committed to backwards compatibility spanning four generations, PlayStation has continued their stance that the feature isn't important. Well, it is! I'm hoping these PlayStation 3 classics that skipped the PS4 entirely show up again on the PS5 for everyone to enjoy.

Knightofelemia1302d ago

Resistance, Dead Space franchise, Splatterhouse, Lollipop Chainsaw, Brutal Legends, Alice Madness Returns, Enslaved Journey to the West, Mass Effect franchise. Also wouldn't mind seeing a new Wild Arms game remake or HD remaster, the Xenosaga trilogy, a new Parasite Eve, a new Dino Crisis just too many games to list that are forgotten and left in the dark now adays.

Sciurus_vulgaris1301d ago

The PS3 is difficult to emulate. PS3 backwards compatibility on PS5 would require translation from PowerPC to x86. Additionally the PS5 likely would have to mimic the PS3’s GPU and CPU.

This is what pops up on my web browser. So I can't even read the site. So, forget that. They don't need my data.

But let's get something straight. OG Xbox had around 1,001 games. How many are BC on Series X? **39** THIRTY NINE. Come on! That's wack BC. You can't tell me that's a complete list. Talking about commitment. Game preservation. Ridiculous. Covers nothing.

How many games released on Xbox 360? Around 2085. How many are BC?
568. That's it. Around 1,517 are **MISSING** Stop playing. Tired of that nonsense.

Anyway, the only games I really want from PS3 that would be awesome are Motorstorm and MGS4. I'll take BC. I'll take a remaster. I'll take a remake. If not those, then Killzone 2. And in VR, maybe Sports Champions, House of the Dead Overkill and the Time Crisis games.

That's all I need. But we've gone over BC again and again in every possible way. It wasn't that important because Sony sold 115 million consoles without it. That's proof enough with no outcry. And PS5 has damn near all 4,000+ PS4 games BC. It's not PS1,PS2 and PS3. But that's plenty. I'll take more but you get what you get.
