Killzone 2 Screenshots Released

2008 sees the release of Killzone 2 on the PS3. Check out the handfull of screenshots that have been released over at RewiredMind.

[paul_war]

Wow, I really like numbers 8 & 9. I would like to see some extra levels or environments though.

[Violater]

I don't think we will see anything new till next year I'm afraid.

[lynx1halo]

in that my only fear for this game is that since it is obviously Graphically superior to anything weve seen....the reviewers will give it the HEAVENLY SWORD TREATMENT and be overly critical of every little aspect of it to find any possible flaws??????????

[Malaka]

Gears still looks better

[ryuyasho]

@1.3 Yeah, it looks "PLASTIC" better... Toy Soldiers, hehehehe

[BulletToothtony]

in your mind gears look better than crysis.. and even thou i do admit that gears look great and it would be the first title i would pick up if i bought a 360 (which i might once the rrod are gone and i see a bigger line up of games for the next years) Killzone2 simply looks amazing, the detail it's incredible,

and even thou i'm sure you've enjoyed gears, and you have seen the good graphics.. if you saw the killy2 trailer on a 50" plasma you would realize why people say it looks soo good..

[socomnick]

Gears does look better but crysis kicks both their @rses.

[PS3PCFTW]

If i was a xbot, id be selling my rrod box right now and buying a ps3.....
then again if i was a xbot and i had no money to get a ps3, id be pissed and would say KZ2 looks like crap/it sucks/ wont sell just to make myself feel better at night.

good thing MY LAUNCH PS3 has me covered in this predicament.

[jiggyjay]

Nothing special! why is it so damn dark! Certainly not leaving up their 2005 trailer!

There sure is a lot of shooters on this console! The 360 has the best library of different genres this generation!

[FF7numba1]

sorry xbots gears just got stepped on by drake. Uncharted beats gears in graphics hands down sorry.

[JsonHenry]

Looks like pre-rendered screenies to me. I will eat my shoe if the game looks this good when you are playing.

I hope I will be eating my shoe though! It would be great if the PS3 could pull those screens off in real time.

[Vertius]

@JsonHenry: What sauce do you want with your shoe? :P

Journalists have been playing it. It's real, alright.

[shmee]

or any x360 game.

UT3>>>GEARS

KZ2>>>>>>&g t;>GEARS & UT3.

xbots what are u smoking. a single screen in KZ2 has like 20x as many poly as a single screen in GEARS

HS,UNCHARTED all look miless better than any x360 game and KZ2 looks miless better than any game

[hazeblaze]

LMFAO!!! Gears doesn't come close to these Killzone screens... it's funny of folks to bring that up though. And of course these are all in real time... we've already seen the gameplay, it's available for download on the PS Store. The fact is, when the game is finally finished it will likely look even better. Either way, Killzone 2 is absolutely the best looking game I've seen so far.

As for Gears... why the hell are there people still trying to hang on to the graphics of this game??? UT3's graphics are already better. Uncharted's graphics are better. At some point the 360 is bound to have a game that looks better too. The game is a year old, let it go.

[PS3PCFTW]

^^^ y are they hanging on to that game as a comparison?

BECUS THE XROD DOES NOT HAVE ANYTHING ELSE OF THAT NATURE.

the 360 was designed FOR THAT GAME

[PlayStation360]

Yeah Json. It's already been proven that those pics are in-game. I'll see you in multiplay bro :)

[crazy25000]

looking nice......now, release a demo please =)

EDIT: just realized, these screens are old, i think from 05/06?

[Devr]

They are old, but not that old... They're all gameplay images from this year. Lol, this site is going to explode when new KZ2 screens are actually released.

[MADGameR]

Anyone who is'nt blind KNOWS that KillZone 2 looks better than Gears of War. KillZone 2 has much more complexed detail on the blood. Killzone 2 has the most realistic blood splatter I have ever seen other than Crysis.

[dhammalama]

They seem to look better, maybe brighter, or sharper. Maybe it's just me, but it looks even better now. AAAAHHHHH, I want to play this game.

Edit - I went to gamespot and looked at the screens from long ago. These are the same, everything in them is the same, but there are a couple ones here that aren't on gamespot. Still looks HOT!!! Shooting things in this game is going to be fun.

[Lumbo]

hmm, the posting system is still kinda out of synch ...

[Ju]

I agree. Look better. Better lightning, IMO.

[ryuyasho]

they're same as the E3 ones. we need to see Scholar Visari in one of the pics, only then we could classify them as "Fresh" pics.

[Mr PS3]

Its time for it to step aside and make way of KZ2

[gamesblow]

Gears already has.. uncharted moved it over last month.

[paul_war]

You gained a bubble, I can now see you comment, welcome back.

[rubarb23]

what you dudes smok'n? gears kills drake and KZ2. just do a side by side comparison and see which one has more detail, lighting - ooops doesn't look like KZ2 will be using alot of that, and overall graphics.
i know you guys have been jealous ever since gears came out and that you've been waiting for something just like it or to surpass it....keep waiting guys.
i guess your all used to that by now anyways.
oh as far as UT3 looking better than gears goes, well that's debatable, but that game is still coming out for the 360 and like always the 360 gets better port with the better graphics.
you guys can hate on me all you want, still wont change the fact that ports on the 360 always look better.
another thing, i love how you guys are so excited for this piece of shat. killzone sucked monkey balls and yes even YOU KNOW THAT!!! and now your all pumped for killzone 2? the sequel to ps2's halo kill'n flop? it seems you guys are betting the purchase of your ps3 on this game to deliver...wouldn't hold my breath.

-Edit-

@ sonarus, the debate as to what's the best looking game on either the 360 or ps3 will go on until the new systems come out and even then will continue. as it stands, IMO, killzone looks great, but gears, a game that came out a while ago, still looks better. you make good points my friend, i can respect that but we just have a difference of opinion going on here. i mean in my opinion, games like bioshock and gears have set the standard for graphics. my cousin has uncharted and i'll admit it looks good, but the graphics aren't on the level set by gears/bioshock - of course this is all IMO. Killzone 2, like i said gears looks better, most, if not all of you guys disagree with that, which is fine but i think the next game to push the 360 above again is projet offset. in the end, i think the real kick in the nuts for ps3 owners is that you were promised so much (typical sony) and got so less in return. i mean do you remember when the killzone 2 trailer was shown at e3 2005? at the end of it kaz harai says "this is the least you can expect from the ps3". WHAT!? well anyways just look on how they're delivering on those 'graphical promises'.
oh and for those of you who use the excuse of the 360 was out a 1 year early - lol, how easily we forget the ps3 was delayed a couple of months which means devs have had about the same time with the ps3 as they have had with the 360.

[Lumbo]

@paul_war: thats the reason i put the threshold to hide 2 bubbles or less .. to avoid reading comments by posters who are next to 1 bubble ... eliminates the chance of some cronies ganging up and push the deserved single bubble count over the 2 bubble threshold for a day or so ...

And considering the usual content of Mr_PS3 and rubarb23's posts i will prolly be better of NOT clicking on "show" ...

[sonarus]

@ rubarb gears had some impressive lighting but UT3 lighting is better and neither of those have lighting as impressive as killzone. Graphically uncharted is a better lookin game than gears jst that gears has a more realistic look cus its not as cartooney(i have both). UT3 looks better than gears at least the pc version gotta see the ps3 version to judge that.
Gears of war will probably be the best lookin game on 360 till gears of war 2 which will look slightly better than UT3 on ps3. Its been a yr and still no 360 game that looks better than gears so am guessin gears is pretty much peak 360 or at least very cloe to peak but we never knw gow pulled off new graphics for ps2 when we thought that had peaked too. I try not to buy into that ps3 using 30% crap cus you got to show and prove with your games. If a yr later no ps3 game looks better than uncharted then i will assume uncharted is very near peak graphics for ps3.
These KZ2 screens definetly look better assuming the games look as good as these screens its safe to say its the best lookin shooter available on consoles. however KZ1 never really had a problem lookin good so dnt wanna pass judgement too early. I like the destructible environments too

[Sevir04]

Sonarus Call of duty 4 took a dump on gears of wars graphics the day it hit the 360 and the PS3. Rachet took a dump on Gears, and HS took a dump on gears. and they all have impressive likghting and that not even bringing in games like uncharted which is the graphic powerhouse for this year. whats worse, UT3 on PS3 has already made gears of war graphics look bad. to be honest gears was only looking good for 2 months after it launched, then Lost planet came out and showed it out. all i have to say is KZ2's Lighting completely obliterates all console game lighting. they are not stencil lighting, it's dynamic. the only game i've seen that does this kind of lighting was fear. where your flash light from your pistol cast a shadow that moves when it hits the enemies. Gears has nothing like that, and nothing in gears has this much attention to delicate and realitic detail. Sorry but the xbox fankids got shut up when Sony and GG pulled the curtains back and showed the game... it was a punch to the gut. and then they said that build was pre alpha. lol!!! imagine what it will look like at beta or gold...

this falls in the second year of the PS3. uncharted, ratchet, UT3 and COD4 are the most graphical games of 2007 and uncharted Stands at the top with ratchet in close second ^^

[Jen5en]

@Rubarb - I would argue, in response to your claim about lightning, that Uncharted is superior in those terms. Gears of War did not have shadowmaps, it used an older version of shadowing found, for example, in Oblivion. I'm not claiming that Gears of War isn't a milestone in graphical acheivements, it's just that a year has passed now and there is a much deeper understanding of the PS3 and the 360 hardware. We have to stop comparing the ol' boys of glory to the new young guns; it simply isn't fair. Bioshock beats Gears, Mass Effect beats Gears, so does Uncharted and Killzone 2... things evolve; there's no such thing as being 'future-proof'.

[gamesblow]

Graphically impressive and it's still pretty early. I'm not expecting this one until summer... It can't hit in the fall, because Resistance 2 will be out and Sony wouldn't compete with Insomniac.

[paul_war]

A double sided blu-ray disk! Killzone on one side, Resistance 2 on the other. I know it would never happen, but what a disk.

[lodossrage]

Yeah, it wouldn't be wise to have two of their front running franchises competing with each other like that.

I expect this game by mid spring or summer at best. Besides, if they really want to take money away from MS, releasing killzone 2 and resistance 2 at least 3 months apart from each other would be a great way to do it.

Considering the "system seller" potential they both have, it would be good business strategy to give both of those that 3 month time frame. That way system sales would stay high and continuous for at least 6 months straight.

I know some will disagree. But keep in mind that's my opinion speaking. No facts lol.

[lodossrage]

You wish.

But you know what? Damn that.

I wish too LOL

[sonarus]

i dnt really consider resistance 2 to be a system seller unless offcourse it looks significantly better than 1 not to say 1 looked bad but resistance sold cus it was the launch title to own and is still one of the best games on ps3. resistance 2 utilizsing the new insomniac engine shouldrun at 60fps(according to insomniac) and with texture streaming look a lot better and have improved physics as well. resistance should sell but killzone is the real system seller

[BestGamerAlive]

why do u post here if u think games blow u know what u blow u dont know anything about games dont know how ur a manager at game stop u should b fired ur a terrible gamer

[name]

If you go to the playstation forums, there's some devs from Guerilla games there. You can post about that so you can make sev mad. Then he'll make the game more intense =D

[sonarus]

i asked him a question about enemies and the a.i. and basically all he said was yes there is a limit before enemies on screen start to affect frame rate. which i already knew frm wat i have seen frm the video so far, it dosent seem like they have a whole lot of enemies on screen which is a bit dissapointin for me but hopefully the game pans out ok

[name]

I'm not sure if itll release this fall. I was thinking that killzone 2'll release in the spring and resistance 2'll release around the holidays.

[Danja]

I agree KZ2 will more likely see a spring release...

old screens but they do look sharper...!!

[fredy]

for something that sets this game aprt from others and i just do not see it.

they still in pre pre alpha stage after 3 years or what?

this game is suppose to be out in march.. thats like 4 months. where is some real gameplay footage?

[Danja]

or maybe since the game is no-where near it's release date..so theres really no need to hype the game which often times means over-kill..

The game has been in the making for roughly 2 years btw...

[Kleptic]

2 years?

production was rumored to start at the beginning of 2005 (effectively making it 3 years)...with base code and lighting engine details being started in late 2004...the game was announced at E3 2005, but that doesn't mean that is when anything started...

over 120 devs...a more or less confirmed budget of over 30 million dollars (some confirm it to be 25 million, some rumors place it over 40 million)...as far as AAA status of in development games go...this stands alone by far...if that is the actual production cost, not including marketing or advertising requirements...that makes it by far one of the most expensive undertakings in industry history, software wise of course...

even with Halo 3's 10 million dollar ad campaign included...it doesn't come close to how much SCE has spent on this game...

[kevin1122]

its crazy to think more money was spent on making final fantasy 7 than killzone, so far that is. Makes you think wth did they spend it on for ff7.

[speed_demon]

"Just to reiterate. This is for PS3 only.

It will be coming out on PS3.

In 2008."

Peace Out and Happy Holidays to all PS3 gamers.

[Lord Cheese]

not wishing to rain on your parade here, but what happens if it ends up like the original killzone? Massive hype, dubbed a halo killer, looked great and ended up....erm....average.

Nothing wrong with being excited, but dont get unrealistic expectations about what a game is likely to be. Thats what makes the bitter after taste of dissappointment all the harder to bear.

[Stray_Wulf]

all those screens are taken directly from the trailer they released a LONG time ago... i wanna see some new stuff!!!! and a demo!!!! (hopefully...)

[squallsoft]

holy crap, those are INGAME screen shots???? wow... amazing...

[lodossrage]

Yeah, it may be a safe bet to assume that's ingame screenshots there. And yeah, I agree, they are UNREALISTICALLY amazing

[mighty_douche]

they are 100% in-game, you can even watch the video being played that that screen shot is taken from.

[Shadow Flare]

It really is a fantastic looking game but i do wanna see some different environments and stuff. These screens are from the same level back from E3. Now what i would like to see is a Helghast dog wearing a gasmask. And the tube from the gasmask links to the dog's tail, so it creates a handle for the Helghast to pick up the dog. Then yeah, when the dog woofs, bullets come out his mouth, and for double recall bullets also come out his butt, then yeah, he swings the dog around by its gas mask handle, and everyone dies

[PS3 Limps on and on]

Looks like what we saw at E3 but more colorful and better.

But this is nothing new, it's funny how just a few old screen shots of this game gets people excited or something.

[i_like_ff7]

These are the pics that will make ur jaws drop. BTW any1 says gears looks better, geta life and shut up.
http://forums.gametrailers....

[killer_trap]

OMG. this thing looks more polished than uncharted. i never played the original killzone, were there any jungle type levels or is it all industrial like the pics. i really want to see what can be done with this engine and is it comparable to crysis.

[paul_war]

I recently got Killzone, I want to finish it before this comes out.

However I don't think it will be near Crysis, that game is above & beyond anything i've ever seen.

[Kleptic]

ha same for me...

I bought Resistance with my PS3...and got killzone in a used bin for like 2.99 also...I had seen the E3 05 trailer the day it released...and despite not playing the first one, was excited to see if Sony would really deliver on it...

and KZ1...unplayable man...I am probably half way through it, but the chugging framerate and retarded AI are almost too much to bare...especially considering I had Resistance also...it looked great for a PS2 game I guess, when not in motion anyway...and the PSN apparently doesn't allow PS2 games to be played online (only online PS2 game I ever tried on a ps3)...and some say kz1 had a great multiplayer...

KZ2 does look great though...can't wait to see more of it...

[paul_war]

I've also got to play Killzone Liberation, I assume its all part of the same story. I don't like missing out. As soon as I heard about Ratchet TOD I had to buy the previous ones I didn't have!

[e-ray]

I also would like to see if the game has more varied environments rather than a grey industrial setting. While it does look good, I have a feeling that if I played that game a lot the graphics could get boring quickly due to all of the gray. I hope I'm wrong, but that's just the feeling I get now...

My hope is that, once we see some daytime screens, those premonitions will mostly disappear. Daylight could reveal a color scheme that may be a bit more varied than this, a la Gears of War.

[Ju]

...KZ1 works perfectly online on the PS3 (as long as you have BC). What you need, though, is a PS2 network configuration which you have to set up from within the PS2, not the PS3. I think, however, Sony offers a PS2 configuration file from the PSN. If not, you need the PS2 network start disk to configure your network. BTW: Starwars Battlefront has that build in (maybe some others, too), so yeah, either that or the Network disk. But after that, KZ1 online works fine on the PS3.

[Mikey_Gee]

This game is the number one reason I am looking into a PS3 for the Holidays. I hope it lives up to the hype.

[paul_war]

Was it true the demo level took up 2gb?

If so will it take up more space now with the improved graphics?

[achira]

this game will be awesome! cant wait for it, super good screenshots!

[RudeSole Devil]

When I first saw theses screens shots a couple months back, I said never gonna look this good on PS3. Now after playing Ratchet and Uncharted, I'm very excited to see the next what Gorilla will accomplish. With 32 players online, and with destructible environments, this will be COD4 and Crysis killer.

[Gamingisfornerds]

How many times are you blokes gonna post these, enough is enough already. Come on!

I know we're all eagerly awaiting new footage of this game, but this is just insanity. Everytime I fall for the same trap thinking they've finally released some NEW screens, just to find out it's the same bloody batch of screenshots over and over again!

OMG, how did this get approved anyway. These screens were posted just a few days ago...again!

/rant. :P

[RudeSole Devil]

Some are old and some are new, and if you remember the original screen of this game, Killzone 2 has come a long way form E3 2007.

http://images.google.com/im...

[Gamingisfornerds]

Different angle, same level, same footage, been there...

I've seen all the gameplay videos, walkthroughs everything. Why would I want to see this all over again even if it's slightly polished.

Come on, it's about time they show us some fresh enviroments already. It would also help awaken the hype a bit again.

I mean, if people start reposting the same images over and over again, it's kind of an indication that the game is loosing momentum and from a marketing standpoint that can't be right.

It's time to show us some fresh material. Devs happy, gamers happy, everybody's happy! ;)

[CaliGamer]

They seem to show a lot more detail, and the color usage is really good.

It astonishes me that the KZ2 haters still use the lack of color argument when trying to detract from this game. The controlled use of resources is prefered to just including things because you can. Color is nice if thats what your going for, but real life isn't like that (think CoD4).

Image #3 I think showcases the advanced lighting, as you can see the muzzle flash from the mid bosses machine gun is red, and everything that the light source hits has a red hue to it, even your own gun. That is sick.

I agree that I don't see anything new emerging on this before years end, but who knows. I just want GG to take their time and deliver an experience second to none.

[OC_MurphysLaw]

This could be the "killer app" for the PS3...the one to really put it on the road map and say.. "you need a PS3 now".

And yes I know Uncharted, Resistance and Heavenly Sword all are fine titles...but NONE of those games is a true "killer app" in the industry sense. None of those games had fanboys lined up at midnight for its release etc. They are good titles...but not true system movers. Killzone 2 may be the one.

I do think Killzone 2 needs to do one thing better...They need to get "joe public" more informed about the main protagonist of the story (if there is one that is..) I honestly never played Killzone 1, but I also honestly can tell you I have no idea who the hero was in that game. Killzone needs a character that everyone can rally around imo... I just think it would really help people get into the story like they did with Halo and Masterchief. Anyway...just my opinion.

Game looks great!

[Afterburn]

The game needs to be marketed hardcore to the gaming public, plain and simple. Halo was (is)a typical FPS, but the marketing campaign for it was fantastic. Hate on the 360 all you want, but it was all over all of the media and news outlets for a week. I have a PS3, but the hype around Halo made me interested. They did a fantastic job with it and I've yet to see anything from Sony that compares. KZ2 could very well be the system seller that PS needs, but if no one knows about it but already existing gamers, it's not going to tap into the general public market that are looking to purchase a console. Guerrilla has had years to put this out, it needs to be flawless and it needs to be advertised.

[Ju]

Yeah, but the PlayStation brand never had an iconic character to drive platform sales. It was always the great variety (and eventually the price) which lead to the number of sales for the PS2. More like a steady flow of content coming to the platform. And I do not really see, where Halo is the holy grail in console sales. It caused a one month sales spike. But that was it. Now, they will need another "Halo" for 2008 to repeat that again. That said, this is a highly volatile strategy. While the PlayStation, and I can see that with the PS3 has a steady stream of very high level content. A single title might not sell like Halo, but eventually you can choose from a real big pool of very good titles - which easily can match any of the hyped titles in quality, but might address some specific tastes. I do not regret that. And I certainly don't miss Halo.

I also doubt that KZ2 (or even MGS4) will be _THE_ PS3 system seller (they target a very specific audience, IMO). I even predict, the PS3 will never have one of those. And who cares ? Over all system sales after the first year have reached a competitive level. It will keep growing with the future variety of titles hitting the market. I think eventually the broad library itself will be the system seller.

[iNcRiMiNaTi]

does this game offer anything new to console FPSs??. it looks awesome but i see low scores ahead if it doesnt do anything new besides look pretty. currently CoD4 is the king of console FPSs, if KZ2 can outdo CoD4 in terms of gameplay and the online modes then KZ2 might be the FPS to beat. so far all ive seen was a game that looked good, thats not a bad thing, but i wanna see more

[Gamingisfornerds]

The game looks great, has some great atmosphere but that's all we know so far and Guerilla's track record isn't all that amazing either. We've barely seen a segment of a level that didn't show anything revolutionary and we don't even know how well it controls/feels (say what you want, but the feel of the controls is essential in FPS's). Therefor I have to laugh at people already calling this game the best FPS ever made. Based on what exactly?

That all said, sony knows this is the game that will HAVE to deliver. They will do everything they possibly can to make this game a succes I'm sure. Whether it be extra funds, resources, manpower, time etc. This game simply can't afford to fail.

That's the reason I believe this game can turn out to be something special. But, only time will tell.

And some new footage: >:)

[iNcRiMiNaTi]

i hate games that are hyped up and end up with garbage controls. lair + kane and lynch.

in an FPS every gun has to have a certain feel to it, or at least certain weapon classes have to feel slightly similar with some variation, like different sniper rifles should vary in range, ammount of ammo, damage, etc.

and we dont even know if its a solo game or if u have the abilty to command squads. seems like the developer focused on the graphics first [to try and match it to the e3 05 trailer they showed probably] and went to work on the core of the game after the graphics which is why there were videos of problematic or dumb AI earlier this year.

[Gamingisfornerds]

I mean, I know people get all excited about this game when seeing this fantastic footage and all and I really hope this game will be the new "messiah of FPS's". But in all honesty, it has a long way to go yet in proving so.

The AI as you said needs to be there, story of some sorts anyway (though not that much of a dealbreaker in FPS imo), controls/feel, squad command, co-op?, level design/variety etc etc.

This all has yet to be seen. Not saying it won't be there, but we just haven't seen anything of the sorts. So let's just wait and see before we call this the "best FPS ever made".

It already (almost) has the Halo-like-mass-media-hype going for it. So that's a first move to system-seller status. Now they need to make a great game to go along with it.

I really hope it succeeds and lives up to the hype, but again, only time will tell.

[Probotector]

Mediocre franchise. M.E.D.I.O.C.R.E

[mighty_douche]

ok mate.

saying that make you feel better about being a 360 owner?

[aiphanes]

You can not say that about Killzone 2 because it has not come out...But considering Killzone liberation was awesome...Killzone 2 will be awesome too..

[damnwrx]

Clarity/ detailed.......I hope they fixed the sniper rifle scope from the previous killzone(PS2), that was awful I will admit! I couldn't see sh!t....But, it's all good.....

[Lumbo]

I wish they would put up some real 720p screenshots, not this half rez things .. *grrrr*

[kingboy]

These might help

[name]

God this game is beautiful.

And to the people doubting this game because of killzone 1. You obviously haven't played or seen the reviews for killzone liberation for the psp.

[iNcRiMiNaTi]

just because a game looks good doesnt mean its a good game right away. and killzone liberation isnt an FPS.

[sak500]

Jeezus, what the hell are you guys wearing on your eyes? Kaz's jiz have blinded you droids. These muted black, grey and rust pictures look like 1800's sepia toned photographs. Comeon guys you got to be joking about these shots. Did u play the freaking COD4? or R&C or Uncharterd? Looking at these shots hurt my eyes..Time to play COD4..

[Meus Renaissance]

500 degrees in 1 hour. Says it all

[aiphanes]

That is 8 player deathmatch...or 4 Vs 4 players on teams...

That is very weak in this day and age...

Uncharted looks better than gears of war...fact....there are much more environments in Uncharted than Gears of War...The textures are much better in Uncharted.

Only Xbots will differ on this...because they are haters...

[iNcRiMiNaTi]

i only got the game because there was nothing else to play on my 360. until i got rainbow 6 vegas, and now cod4, i also hate halo3. i wonder how KZ2 will be tho, hopefully itll bring a necessary change to console FPSs

[Wefek]

Killzone looks good.
But they have to get some better pics.
These are obviously from E3, and they
are about as old as Ice-T's rapping career.

[40cal]

alone will set this game apart from all other FPS. Taking cover and never leaving the first person view is what Im stoked about. This game will raise the bar.

[JasonPC360PS3Wii]

Oh wait this is Greyzone 2, Sony's PS2, opps I mean PS3 masterpeice.

OMG! check out these screens, they have the color orange! My Sony sure has come along way with that whole color thing. This reminds me of a colorized John Wayne WWII movie. What kind of art style is this, colorblind? And to think some of you actualy think this looks better than COD4 or GEARS or even Gundam PS3 LOL

[kevin1122]

im replying to your comment because you really do need help, you spend your time going into sony articles and you constantly bash sony. You need to get out and get a life.

[paul_war]

If you want bright varied colours you have Ratchet. Please also note we have only seen the ONE level. We have no idea what other environments the game will be based in.

Edit: @bellow. I believe I only say positive things in post 1 & 5.1. In the others I am asking questions or give neutral comments. I even say Killzone 2 won't look as good as Crysis in one post (that got me a few disagrees). I have a 360 & look forward to gears 2. & yes i'm pressing refresh, i'm trying to avoid an essay on research ethics.

[JasonPC360PS3Wii]

kevin1122 Now what was that you said about a life? I couldn't hear you with this wall of "hypocrisy" in the way.

paul_war I'm honored :-) I got your last bubble and all of them used up "spinning" this post. This post has been here for 2hrs and all that time you spent spinning :-( how sad. What did you just hang around hitting the refreash button on your browser?

[sak500]

Damnit jason, i dint read your post before i posted about the sepia tone photographs. You're dead on, read my comment above #26.2. Man what are these guys talkin about? Blurry, black/grey/brown colored textures?

Agreed it might have looked amazing if my last game was quake2 but with games like COD4, Gears and on PS3 even, R&C and Uncharterd this looks like sh!t..literally

[basherdrog]

OK HOW ABOUT THIS:

PINK
PURPLE
MAGENTA
RED
ORANGE
YELLOW
WHITE
DULUX
BERGER
lmao all the colors..

all in

*************************HALO 3**************************

lmao ur 360 pony princess halo tale is just like a rainbow..xD

[JasonPC360PS3Wii]

Well those along with blue, green, yellow, brown, red, purple or hell even white.

What do all the people who own PS3's have "dog" eyes or is the Killzone world on a planet without "light" where color is made?

[Saint Sony]

These images look really good, but they have been downscaled for smoother edges and AA. It is an old trick with screenies.

Nevertheless Killzone2 looks stunning, I really hope the game itself lives up to the hype. The more great games out there the more devs need to push higher = more quality games for gamers.

So far I have not heard any positive game play news bits about Killzone2, everything is related to looks and gfx and that is what scares me.

Edit: Thanks for the links Meus, yes I have failed to open my eyes it seems. Sounds cool, a bit over hyped, but cool. After reading all the link articles, it makes me feel it offers nothing really new or innovative. Might turn out to be great or mediocre fps gfx fest. But Gears of War did not offer anything really new either, but it sold like hot cakes just because it looks cool. I'm still not gona join the hype.

[Meus Renaissance]

Nothing positive about the gameplay? That's because you fail to open your eyes and thus miss the hands on previews IGN and others provided. Here are just some of the Hands On play throughs. Not general previews, but hands on. That means people playing the game.

need is the DEMO

[ryuyasho]

... this were the pics we all saw couple months ago. not only that, they're from the video trailer. i'm not surprise at all. but still this game is looking like a Graphical Revolution. I'm just hoping that the gameplay is Flawless and Revolutionary and not just dead Real Graphics...

[ToastyMcNibbles]

game looks incredible...i just hope the gameplay is varied in certain missions...maybe have some sort of sneaking element in one...just sniping in another..basically kinda like how cod4's gameplay was varied...i have no doubt that this game will be great but i just hope the gameplay wont be so simple and boring...run shoot kill checkpoint cutscene...cough halo 3 cough...but these are definitely jizzworthy screenshots

[Raptors]

You thought Halo 3 was a marketing blitz? Wait till this game comes around the corner. Sony put ALOT of money into this game and they're going to want to make it back. Expect to see a ton of commercials. I must say, i am gonna buy a ps3 for this game.
Anybody with any technical know how please chime in. Do you know what or where Guerilla games might hold back in order to make the game look like this? I mean there's only so much you can push 512mb of ram and this game looks beastly. And to the people who are hating on gears, give me a break. The game looks fantastic.

[shysun]

Aww nothing new! :(

[Relientk77]

these graphics are un-frickin-believable.... these graphics could be better than Grand Turismo 5 which has some of the best graphics I have ever seen ... im loving my PS3 ... Final Fantasy 13, GT 5, Killzone 2, Uncharted, Unreal Tourny 3, Ratchet and Clank Future, etc.

keep bringing on the great games with completely sick graphics to go along with them ... its awesome!!

[sak500]

Stop drinking too much of ken's protein shake. Its causing you color blindness. Man Open your eyes and see what the hell you are calling unbelieveable graphics. They are indeed unbelieveable cuz no one can expect such krappy colored textures in a next gen game

[Afterburn]

Was a fantastic game. You could play as any of 4 characters, each with different abilities that let you go through the levels with your own tastes, stealth, diplomacy, straight run and gun or a mixture of all of these. The online area was great too, and there are still people that play this online everyday and it's 4 years old now.
The first board was very dark and grey, but there were a lot of levels that had great color to them. The weapon choices were good. The only real drawback to the first game was a very predictable AI. Online was and still is a lot of fun. The game needed a few patches to balance the weapons (anyone that ever tried to kill an enemy with the ISA rifle knows what I'm talking about) but it was a lot of fun with better online features than COD4 has now. (Flame away) There was a functional lobby, a real buddy list and the ability to send messages to each other, see if your friends were in a game, dedicated servers and the ability to join your friends in game with no invitation.
If they get this version right it'll be fantastic, I only hope it's marketed properly - again my hat's off to the Halo marketing team, they made that game what it is.

[xionpunk]

I also thought KZ1 was a great game. I'm playing through it again. The Ai
is not the brightest, and there are a couple a frame rate problems (though I thought they were minor) but those problems are not enough to make the game less enjoyable. The mood and atmosphere of the whole thing is incredible.

[PStriple703]

still damn sexy!

[FPS nut]

I wonder if you guys ever realise this game is being made by the same devs who made the first one?

The PS3 needs a killer FPS if they want to go up against the 360, thats for sure. Because MS has the PC pool to pick from and Sony has to start from scratch (most of the time) The PS3 does have Haze though but thats a new IP and we all know how that can go. Sony needs to secure a killer FPS or steal one from MS because we americans love our shooters and sinse we are the biggest "piece of the pie" (you do the math)

[Ju]

I wouldn't underestimate Haze, yet. It is turning more and more into an "Uncharted Shooter" (the more I see - not as in "it will kill UC" both rather UC with an shooter skin + multiplayer). But Haze is a "bright" shooter. Resistance (2) and KZ are darker. KZ1 was pretty unique in some respect (good weapons, the 1 out of 4 game play, good story). If KZ2 can keep up with that and improve on the weak spots, it should be a top title. The visuals are stunning. We should not forget, thought, that when that game hits the market, Naughty Dog is probably on its second generation and Insomniac (R2?) on its third. I see competition already coming for KZ2 - which can only be a good thing. We thought KZ2 is the milestone release - I predict at least 2-3 titles in that quality by end of 2008.

If it is AAA title then it will

stop being retarded! our best game on 360 is gears of war and its grey stop being an idiot

I feel sorry for the 360..
I feel sorry for gears..
I feel sorry for the Xbots..
I feel sorry for Gays-of-wars..
I feel sorry for the retarded fanboys..
I feel sorry for those who think Geow looks better..
GeOW is history..they should move on..
I feel sorry for them cuz they get pawned and pawned..
....
-a forum post which so much suits this condition xD..anyways=p
Heavenly sword, R&C and the latest Uncharted,all look better then gears.
Gears only had..

*big gay gorillas,
*water balloon like dead bodies
*lol the worst grenade throwing mechanism
*the worst AI of year
*the worst squad system specially for campaign
*the worst multiplayer which gives a f**k load of host and host team advantage

*lame heroic attitudes and damn old one liners..

[brocool]

haha so true..

[Killjoy3000]

sweet screens. now we need some daylight level screenshots and if sony answeres our prayers A NEW TRAILER THIS YEAR

[Premonition]

Something I noticed with most PS3 first party games are they do great facial and boy animations, good example Heavenly Sword, they have none of that robotic lip sync problems we see in most Next Gen games.

[basherdrog]

exactly

@xbots

name me just one title which is even close to uncharted in terms of facial animations and extremely wonderfully blended cutscenes...

ooh did anyone just say mass effect?

lol its feels like they are only doing *BA BA BA BA BA BA BA BA BA*..next plz..

[Ju]

"boy animations" in HS ? But...but...she's a girl. LOL :) (... run ducking...)

[Polluted]

Old screens, but god damn that game looks sharp. It's only a second year title too. I can't wait to see what we'll be getting 5 years from now.

[OOG FunK]

o jeeez the fanboys r out in full force from both sides.......

Meh not to sure about this game and these are jus recycled pics tryn to build hype over the same thing over and over again..

Personally id like to see a new vid and gameplay to see how it actually is doing...

Ah well hope its good

[OOG FunK]

indeed

[hiphopisdead]

this is a posting for a ps3 exclusive game that ps3 gamers/fans are hyped and excited about.

What ever happened to the days when people didn't go out of their way to ruin other people's excitement for games... it's like this generation of gamers are posting 'hate' comments.

if you're an xbox fan... watch and read and comment on xbox game announcements... if you're not going to try to get excited about this game... then get out of here. maaaaaan. it's not our fault (ps3 fans) that you xbox fans have nothing to look forward to now, that you have to comment on every single ps3 exclusive coming out.

and... by the way... to any loser that has posted saying that Gears of War looks better than killzone 2 (probably the same losers that said forza looks better than Gran Turismo, and that MGS4 should be multi platform)... even when UT3 (a game where even the developers admit that their graphics engine has come a long way since gears of war)comes out for ps3... u idiots will still say Gears is better... and most probably... the only game that will ever be better than Gears, is Gears 2 (too bad your precious halo's graphics were average, with a short, bland story line, and a repetative maps setup for multiplayer... but it still got 9.5+/10 - "do u smell, microsoft pay off?) ... those were your exclusives... now this is a ps3 fan's exclusive.

... i could go on and on... but bottom line... if you dont like the game... dont care for it... and don't even OWN THE FRIGGEN SYSTEM! then stop waisting our time!

[Unknown]

I know its well into the millions. Do you ps3 owners ever wonder what a spectular game INSOMNIAC could create with that type of MONEY!!! Not to take anything away from GG, but really... given INSOMNIAC or even Naughty Dog's track record I think they could've really created something ground breaking. Anyhow, I remeber when I was gaming on my xbox(original) and the first KZ was announced. I was like, "Wow. I really like the dark colors and 'end of the world atmosphere.' " I never got a chance to play it but I still remain curious as to how that game plays EVEN though reviewers didn't give it the highest reviews. I STILL love Halo, but at the same time I can appreciate a game like KZ. I think it is the yin to HALO's yang. I believe that both types of games are needed as they bring two DIFFERENT types of realities or experinces to the table.

@ABOVE
Yea, I find it sad when people hate on a game that isn't on their system or better yet, a game they HAVEN'T EVEN PLAYED! Sure everyone is intitled to their opinion, but when a developer comments and says that their game(UT3) is looking better than a game(GeoW) they released a year ago your brain should register that a great development studio like Epic will optimize their game engine to run better in successive games. If their was no progression in their game engine, what would make you LOGICALLY think that GeoW2 will look any better than the first? And please don't give me "the ps3 is such a weak console" excuse. If you look forward at multi games like RE5 you know that BOTH machines are capable of comparable graphics. Oh and for what its worth I'm a game lover that only has a 360 for the moment. I just call it like I see.

[zonetrooper5]

Grrr, I want new Killzone 2 screenshots not old stale ones damn you Sony!

Well Killzone 2 I will be buying, I just want the gameplay balanced and right. Show me more gameplay, gameplay matters more than graphics.

"Gays of War" hahahahahahah, man you made me laugh. Are you 10 years old by any chance and have your balls dropped yet ?

[Exia]

Wow! Some of these screenshots actually look like the pre-rendered images from E3 2005.

[experimental_sounds]

Man, this really is one of the most impressive games I've ever seen, it sure makes a benchmark on graphics, cool post-processing effects.

Yeah, Gears of War had stunning visuals, so does UT3 and Uncharted. But not like this, only Crysis come as close.

I've yet to see a Xbox fan to say that Killzone 2 is a good game. Perhaps one day?

[tfur]

Here is a larger pic of #3...

http://images.gamersyde.com...

[Lord Cheese]

i've got a ps3 and an xbox, prefer my xbox (at the moment at least) and i for one hope that killzone 2 is absolutely awesome - but you cant say whether its a good game yet.

However, i'd also say to people dont get carried away. Hype ruins games more than most things these days - you get your expectations sky-high, and when a game doesnt meet them, its all the more dissappointing. I felt that with the original killzone. Screenshots show you something about the game, but not the whole story - look at assasins creed! Superb looking game, flawed to play. Everyone hopes KZ2 wont go the same way.

Please show something new! We've seen this section of the level so many times. I think it's time to see a different environment... at this point I'm starting to think that's the only environment >_>

[MasterChief2829]

With that said, I still think this game's cinematic look and feel is very nice. While I don't think it technically looks amazing, what they do with the art style - cinematic style really presents a good look. Hopefully the gameplay turns out well. (I still don't understand why the bullets travel distances so slow to the point where you can see them for almost a half second before they hit their target) I just want to see another environment. Too much gray in too much games.

[BestGamerAlive]

PS3 PLAY BEYOND only possible on da PS WE DA BEST LISTENNNNNNNNNNNNN its da POWER OF THE CELL

[ASSASSYN 36o]

Has anyone seen a sniper rifle for this game...doubt it being you can't ever see more than 30 feet without fog, or smoke.

[PlayStation360]

a sniper rifle has been shown. However, it has been confirmed there will be a sniper rifle in the game.

[scrillakiller]

PS3 IS DA BEST BUCK DA REST.UNCHARTED HS RATCHET ALL ARE ON TOP OF CONSOLE GRAPHICS THIS WILL BE THE NEXT KING.PS3 IS IN AND REVVING.UP IF U SAY ITS GRAY UR A HATER CUZ U HAVENT SEEN ANY OTHER LEVELS EXCEPT ONE

[367 To Your Ass]

must be a signature look.

some one said it looks better than gears well....i don't know, all i can say is that Killzone 2 looks good but it doesn't look miles away from gears of war,

come on both look nice in there own way.

GOW

Killzone 2

[Spydiggity]

These "screen shots" look a lot more like hand drawn images, like a well drawn story board. Not sure i'm too impressed.

and to comment on the gow comment...gow didn't look that great, so that's not a high bar to get over.

[dhammalama]

Are you impressed now? The game looks that good!! Go to game trailers and check out the videos there. These screens are old too, so the game could look better now for all we know.

[BattleAxe]

Thanks for the pics Elite360. I think that where the difference comes in is where Gears of War fits on a DVD and Killzone 2 fits on a Blu-Ray Disc. Theres alot more information going into Killzone 2. The detail of the environments and the fact that the environments are destructable means that there will be a whole lot more information(coding) going into each level. I think there supposed to be between 2-3 GB of information per level in Killzone 2.

Until they start making games on HD DVD for the xbox 360, i think that Sony's games will start to pull away from XBOX games. Blu-Ray disc is giving PlayStation the means to be truely next gen.

[arika]

to a gamer who owns a ps3 this game would be awesome....

to a gamer who owns an xbox 360 and ps3 this would still be awesome..

but, for a gamer who doesn't own a ps3 they would always say this is lame and gears is better than this?! wtf?!

are they blind or those guys still on denial? or... they don't probably have enough money to buy a ps3...well if thats the case, they should go get some extra work and buy one, so that they would not sound so ignorant of what a ps3 console is capable of.

this is the only thing i can say though, the only game comparable to kz2 is mgs4 and thats the real deal my friends..

the truth will set you free and let you go BEYOND...

[Foliage]

Gears was a good looking game. The lighting in Killzone is the best lighting I've seen in any game. There's no clear winner, especially when you consider the superior PC version of Gears.

Although Uncharted already had Gears beat.

[hotshot127]

that is the best one.

to the people saying gears looks better really need to stop...............SERIOUSLY. you guys are in denial.

so many reviewers said uncharted is the best looking game out and it is.
so many reviewers said rachet was the best looking game out before uncharted came.

why are you fanboys in such denial? its sad really

[hotshot127]

what happened to oblivion, dirt, call of duty looking the same.

fight night round 3.

all those games look better on the 360 too?
you said unreal will look better on the 360, even if it looked slightly better, we have mods and keyboard and mouse support which makes our version better.

its people like you that make 360 fans look bad, you clearly cant see the trend that ps3 games are starting to look just as good on the ps3 and i guess your brain is very limited.

if you think just because games looked better on the 360(some)in the ps3's first year, then you truly are dumb. not to mention burnout being better on the ps3.

whats wrong with you man? are you that much in denial???????

[IPlayGames]

Alot of multi games look better on 360 with the exception of the ones you named but what nobody points out is exclusive look extremely better on PS3.

The only one that holds a torch is Bio Shock other than that 360 exclusive look like last gen compared to PS3.

360:
H3
Bio Shock
Mass Effect

PS3:
HS
R&C
Uncharted

[Rhezin]

lol pahhhleeeze

[jinn]

screenshots are unnecessary for this game

[ichimaru]

hotshot127, call of duty was the same on both platforms. dirt came out i think a cuople of months later on the ps3 and looks a little better. and oblivion came out a YEAR later, when bethesda had already made changes.

[GameHero]

kinda like cod4 sharper and cleaner, crisper defenition around characters...KILLZONE PWNS GEARS...BIG TIME...BIG TIME INDEED!

[GameHero]

BUBBLES FROM PS3 BROTHERS PLEASE~

[Rice]

I would give u bubbles, but i dont know how... lol
PS3-This is living
I think

[paracardium]

Here you go bud I gave ya 1.Killzone2 is going to dominate over any 3fixme crap out there.

[Unknown]

If virtual words were punches then my face would be bloody from all the "take that, now what?" tongue lashing that some ps3 fans are giving 360 owners. Some 360 owners have had that same "now its our time to shine." idealogy when a AAA came their way. So maybe, just maybe those guys deserve the rants and raves. But please don't bash all XBOTS or 360 owners. I love to read the excite that you guys have for the games you are playing or are about to be playing. It lets me know what I know to get when I pick up my ps3. But to come on here and here 3fixme and all that crap is nonsense. Enjoy the game and the screenshots. Right now is your time to shine. I'm pretty sure those die hard 360 FANATICS are dying right now and hoping and praying that MS releases a game that TOPS this game. I LOVE my 360. But I love GAMING MORE so I'm not going to see blind truths. Its your moment to shine guys, please don't ruin by throwing dirt in the eyes of people who want to see you shine.

[Lord Cheese]

Well said. Most of the comments made between console fanboys are just childish. Its quite sad really, as games like killzone 2 are the kind of games that bring sales onto the ps3, and entice developers working on games for the 360 to go that extra mile to try and top it. Games like this benefit owners of both consoles and the industry as a whole, and until fanboys can stop acting like petulant children and see that, proper gamers will still be a laughing stock. Dont bite the hand that feeds you.

[Close_Second]

...like some simple screenshots of a decent looking game, add fanboys from both sides and what do you get?

A bunch of f**king crap. If you removed all the fanboy sh*t from this posting then you'd probably have 10 comments.

I'm still waiting to see some big open environments and not the same level from different angles. The lighting, whilst good, still needs improving as too many shots don't show character shadows.

Gears of War is still a landmark title thats now over a year old and whether people like it or not its one fine looking game.

[natsfan7]

Hey guys, dont get me wrong, these look great, but after playing Gears, Rachet, Uncharted, Mass Effect, Asssassins Creed and Cod 4 (and seeing a friend of mine playing Crysis on his computer, which looks better than this or any other game Ive seen) I don't find these Screens "OMG!!" amazing. Great? Yes, but to me, after seeing alls those games I just mentioned, this just seems to be the next step in home console graphics.

[Daxx]

Damn this game looks incredible! O.O

I would totally buy a PS3 just to try KZ2 out.

[IPlayGames]

Online co-op would be a nice feat.

[ManOnFire]

One thing to remember about screen shots is that they really don't do a game that is running justice.
In other words I think KZ2 is going to look even better running in real time next year.
I have a Wii and would love to have a PS3 to play all the fun looking games that are out now and be able to play the games that are coming.
It seems all the systems will have thier share of good stuff to play.
Gaming is good right now.

[Daddy Brooklyn]

Looks unbeatable, so far I've seen nothing better or even close. Games are looking better and better on PS3. I can't wait to get my hands on it, and neither can you 360 fanboys trying so hard to bash it.

DO I SEE WHITE FLAGS!!!!!!!!!!

[Matpan]

Screenshots look just sweet. On par with the best looking games, I don´t see it as out of the chart. I like the desaturated palette with hints of saturated color here and there, nice effect. I think that is what mostly makes for the feel of something new and different, not much the poly count or fx. Yet, from my point of view, it seems as there is a little of post production on this stills...

[mighty_douche]

KillZone 2 is already the console benchmark.

[Bolts]

We've already seen this stuff before, they're merely screenshots of the demo. But I admit its easier to see the awesomeness in stills. This game is going to rock no doubt about that.

[Scions Wrath]

Expect to see a HELL of a lot more of KILLZONE 2 before it's released in 2008. If one of the KZ2 developers, Sebastian Downie is to be believed - we ain't seen nothing yet!

[sak500]

"we ain't seen nothing yet!"

You're right, there is nothing in these dark dreary pictures anyway. Bring on teh bright sunlit open environments and then we'll see what teh fuss is all about.

[FirstknighT]

Wow their sure are alot of comments for some old screenshots. That's pretty sad. I guess their is nothing else to get excited about.

[HarryEtTubMan]

Just imagine actually seeing the WHOLE GAME in HD... including online co-op and Killzone 2 will have AWEASOME multiplayer. PS3 is the place to be.

@ FirstKnight..... SUREEEEEEEE buddy you keep trying to tell yourself that to make you fell better about your 3FIXME. This game will be HUGE.

[EDF 2017]

Look at all those low rez textures in killzone 2 then look at textures in Gears of War. Gears of War trounces Killzone 2 in every department from effects to textures. No game that I have played has topped Gears of War, not Lost Planet, not Mass Effect, not PGR4, not Call of Duty 4. Gears of War is still very impressive today which is a testament to Epic and the power of the 360. Killzone 2 doesn't look real at all, Gears comes alot closer to reality than Killzone 2.

Even in those tiny screenshot you can tell the textures are severely lacking that is why they hide everything with shadows. Gears of War no need for that you can walk up to textures in well lit areas and there is no loss of detail. Killzone 2 = CRAP plain and simple

With games next year all looking really pretty, this game better deliver..........cuz im tired of seeing the same screenshots and old videos that they try to use to hype...I am sorry but this game has been in development for way to long not to show us anything new.....bah welll heres to hopn its good even though I think Metal Gear will be worth the money a hell of alot more.

[Niclas]

Yes i know you spend alot of money on your system.. yes i know your sad if you bought a wii cuz mario sucks and so on.. But if you were one of the lucky bastards the bought a Ps3/Xbox360 you have nothing 2 worry about =) both consoles nice : ) neither is better than the other so stop hating

Halo 3
Gears of War
Bioshock
Mass Effect
Fable 2

Ps3:
Killzone 2
Gran turismo 5

Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the patriots

Yes the box has one more of the perfect 10 game but what the f*ck does it matter .. just play the ones you have/get (I myself saved myself the trouble and bought both Xbox/Ps =))

This game looks VERY exiting/niiiiiiice .. and im sooo looking forward 2 it :P .. but i dunno .. i just have this feling it wont be as good as everybody imagines, including myself.. : /

[basherdrog]

i like your approach .bubbles for you. and yeah everyone has doubts of games. but you know what i dunno bout u guys but i personally dont give a dramn to reivews and scores:) i played saints row and i liked it.i played gears of war and i didnt like it:) i'd prefer playing crackdown over gears of war cuz it was just VISUALS. and the thing about killzone was GAMEPLAY.which is incredibly fun.it had flaws but i had fun playing it and thats wat matters most.but comparing the visuals of gears now with every other new ps3 title is just retarded and these people will never stop doing it.and few Gays for gays of war are so indulge in it that they'll even say Project offset on 360/pc looks crap infront of gears.

Bubble for you!!!

Brilliant post. Why cant everyone be like that huh? Both consoles have great games (the 360 more right at this second, the ps3 more potential next year) and the more great games that come out for each, the better.

I, like you, have my doubts about Killzone 2, only because i saw the dissappointment in the original on the ps2 - but we can only keep our fingers crossed and hope gorilla delivers something great!

basherdog - to be fair, people are only comparing the graphics of gears to newer games as its a stand-out title graphically. It was, as most people know, built on the tech-demo for the new version of the unreal engine, so its not surprising that games have surpassed it graphically now (UTIII being an obvious choice). Besides, if a year old game looked better than kz2, i wouldnt just be surprised, i'd be damned annoyed at gorilla for not trying!! :O)
