Killzone 2 looked great, Killzone 3 will just blow you away.

King_many_layers4852d ago

(replying just so more people can help me out with this)

does anybody else happen to find it really annoying when sites make a comparison which fails to 'compare' scenes with a similar colour/ lighting scheme ??

I just think it's pretty stupid, you don't quite get the full understanding of the differences.

DualConsoleOwner4852d ago (Edited 4852d ago )

yes. a 2 year old game still looks far better.

thats power of cell for you.

even the Crysis 2 console cant compete with 2 year old ps3 game.

this just goes to show how big the gap between PS3 and Xbox 360 is

^ Bringing console fanboyism to a comparison between two games of the same series? O.o

The power of a brain cell for you. =)

Judging by the screens, I probably wouldn't be able to tell the difference between the two games. I can only identify KZ3 due to the environment/snow. =x

captain-obvious4852d ago

its hard to believe that they out done KZ2
wow

gamer20104852d ago

@DualConsoleOwner

This is a comparison between Killzone 2 and Killzone 3 out of curiosity to see what improvements were made.

But I have to ask, do you really think Killzone 2 looks better in those videos you posted?

DualConsoleOwner4852d ago

Texture?? far better on KZ2.

AA?? Crysis 2 got none on console. KZ2 does and KZ3 has MLAA.

Polygons?? watch the videos. KZ2 easily takes it.

btw, this is Crysis 2 CONSOLE version.

Biggest4852d ago

The snow helps to highlight the improvements. That was smart of them to use that level for the demo/beta. Had they used a level with a darker ambiance, people may have written it off as equal to Killzone 2.

AAACE54852d ago

Exactly!

Stupid comparison... everyone will say Killzone 3 mainly because it's the new one and they have put more effort into it!

Ju4852d ago

Kidding me? KZ3 looks like a whole generation leap ahead of KZ2.

More going on, more effects, more of everything, new features (fluid dynamic - KZ2 doesn't have), and on top of that not a single hickup in the framerate nor tearing.

This is quite impressive.

meetajhu4852d ago

Killzone 2 looks better. After i played the killzone 3 snow demo so much jaggies everywhere i couldn't stand the quality too bad they had to compromise AA for 3d and performance. But great thing is fps is stable compared to Killzone 2. I still say Killzone 2 looks better and Killzone 3 will also be a great game.

starcrafter4852d ago

There are hardly any jaggies at all! It uses MLAA - equivalent to at least 4xMSAA, which is more than enough anti-aliasing for a 720p image. Very clean IQ, leads me to think you're just mindlessly trolling... KZ3 looks amazing - even better than KZ2!

Theonetheonly4852d ago

@STARCRAFTER

It has always been my experience that the lower the resolution you have to play at the more jaggies and the more AA you need. 720P hasnt been HD since HD came out. I need a lot of AA if i play a game at lower settings so that the jaggies dont get in the way, at a higher res i dont really notice jaggies as there is som many more pixels to describe lines that they don not appear jagged in the first place

RGB4852d ago

Killzone 2 Looks good but is static

Killzone 3 looks better and it's real time visuals!

Theonetheonly4852d ago (Edited 4852d ago )

whateva....Im talking about resolutions and aa not the coolness of kz3 or 2 I think they look good. no need to flame with the disagrees.
i havent played kz3 but I think it will be good as well.

DFresh4852d ago (Edited 4852d ago )

If you have a 1080P TV or Monitor KZ3 it will upscale.

KZ2 played at 720P/1080i.

Interlaced looks very close to 1080P not quite there and the smoothness when it comes to motion now is determined by the size of your monitor.

Like if you have a 40 inch or smaller you can't see it but once you get a 40 inch or above you really can easy every little detail out of order.

Progressive looks better and runs smoother.

I'm very sure the single player demo was the Alpha Code from E3 2010.
(Pretty sure it will be much better on the final version due to more polishing time.)

justinb14852d ago

@Reedbananaboat:
I disagreed because you said -
"720P hasnt been HD since HD came out"
Because, by definition, 720p is HD

Also you inferred that 4xMSAA isn't enough anti-aliasing for a 720p image, when it is. Although 8xMSAA would provide a reasonably noticable increase in clarity of IQ 4xMSAA is more than enough to remove the distracting aliasing - pronounced aliasing isn't visible, you have to look hard to find a slightly jagged surface.

XabiTheHumble4852d ago

You do know that the beta is only 800 megabytes right? Your not going to get the same visuals as the retail version bud...

meetajhu4852d ago

@Kenrocc_42

I have the SP demo and its final build. Disappointing gfx but gameplay kick ass as usual

NiKK_4194852d ago (Edited 4852d ago )

killzone 3 looks awesome, but i can't help but miss the art styles of 1 and 2. i loved how dark they were, killzone 3 is more colorful and cleaner, but don't get me wrong i love the way it looks especially the water, snow, and the lighting, and how the pieces of ice float on the water it looks so awesome and makes you feel cold

jammydude4852d ago

The only recent game with disappointing visuals is crysis 2 on consoles. KZ3 looks amazing and surpassed the screenshots I've seen graphically. VERY far from disappointing visually, troll

Holeran4852d ago

@meetajhu If you're concerned about KZ3 graphics try putting it on another TV, cause you are obviously playing it on a 19 inch black and white if you think the graphics aren't outstanding. And jaggies my ass, that game is as smooth as anything out there on any console.

gamer20104852d ago

I don't know what kind of anti-aliasing it is using, but meetajhu is right, the anti-aliasing was better in Killzone 2. There are a lot more jaggies in Killzone 3.

DevilsOwn4852d ago

Killzone 3 without a doubt. But nice to see how the graphics have evolved.

LycanSoldier4852d ago

Without even looking at the screenshots.
Isn't the answer pretty obvious?

tacosRcool4852d ago

That I look prettier than both games?

Duh Killzone 3 looks better, its got the Uncharted 2 snow!

ct034852d ago

One game has a processing-intensive 3D mode, the other doesn't. So no, the answer is not obvious.

geodood4852d ago

We've seen videos and screenshots of KZ3 and played KZ2 and know how it looks already. It is obvious.

frostypants4852d ago

I find it interesting that you got all those disagrees for pointing out that it's not obvious, and yet below "jmmurillo86" makes the comment that he can't tell the difference and gets a bunch of agrees.

It's all in how you word your comment, I guess. This site is ridiculous sometimes.

jmmurillo864852d ago (Edited 4852d ago )

I can't tell the difference, both look mindblowing. I dare you to play KZ2 again and find how amazing it looks.

WetN00dle694852d ago (Edited 4852d ago )

Agreed, both titles look amazing!

I WANT KILLZONE 3 NAO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
The 22nd is still ways off.......

BubloZX4852d ago

the 22 is my Birthday!!!!!

WetN00dle694852d ago (Edited 4852d ago )

Well happy early birthday!
Hopefully they gift you KZ3!
Played the demo by the way AND HOLY FLYING WOMBATS its awesome! The reviewers that are giving this game bad scores need to find another job and/or stop drinking the bong water!

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

1Victor381d ago

Can’t wait for their next franchise

SullysCigar381d ago

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

jznrpg381d ago

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

badz149380d 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!

Vengeance1138381d 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 Kim381d ago

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

VersusDMC381d 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?

Vengeance1138381d ago

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

solideagle381d 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.

Phoenix76381d ago

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

Wow, very impressive. I didn't know the numbers were so high for Forbidden West. Still playing through it myself

thesoftware730381d ago (Edited 381d 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.

blacktiger380d ago

thank you fps lover, I'm with you

talocaca381d ago

Such a wonderful studio. They deserve all their success.

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

OzzY-waZZy381d ago (Edited 381d ago )

Kinda wish they move on from Horizon tbh.

potatoseal381d ago

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

Imalwaysright381d ago

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

bouzebbal1132d ago

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

MadLad1132d 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.

Applejack1132d 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_B1132d ago

Even emulators are super simple to use.

jukins1132d 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.

1132d ago
Vegamyster1132d 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.

SinkingSage1132d ago

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

Rachel_Alucard1131d ago (Edited 1131d 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.

MadLad1131d ago

Did you purposely miss the entire point of my post?

Inverno1132d 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.

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_vulgaris1309d 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.
