1 - Added some color
and the textures are crisper.

They still got lots of time to work on it now, so it'll look just right by Febuary.

I don't know. From the off screen footage yesterday the game was looking ridiculously gray. But from this screen you can definitely see a lot of color has been added.

IMO has more color than gears 1.

Here is the E3 2005 vs E3 2007 side by side comparison:

It sounds like the next big bit of Killzone 2 info will be when they demo the Hellgast weather effects. Probably at E3. Should be insane going by what they already have running with 9 months to go.

3 - The game looks phenominal
The polygon count is absolutely insane,the lighting is ridiculously realistic,and the animations are as smooth as Eggs.

If the game had just come out,the graphics would be a 10 without a doubt.

"If the game had just come out,the graphics would be a 10 without a doubt. "

LOL! You think this game has GTA4 level graphics???

But seriously, this game is going to get absolutely destroyed in reviews by the usual suspects:

EGM
1Up
Eurogamer
...

These sites are chomping at the bit to trash this game. 7/10s almost a certainty with some token 9/10s for graphics.

"Didn't live up to teh Sony hype..."
"Ya Killzone 2 is 'pretty', but..."
Blah,blah,blah...

Gamespot would probably give it a 7/10 for the graphics having too much detail to look at.

4 - Another thing...
that seems to have changed since the E3 '07 demo is the blood. It seems toned down significantly. When look at the one from '07 and now... it seems less gory. I don't know if it's just the lighting or what.. but I loved the blood effects from '07... they were pretty amazing.

5 - oh man. im glad they fixed that guy's face. that part of the e3 07 video annoyed the hell out of me
and the fire and ground textures look MUCH better then from e3 07. these new videos put the e3 07 videos to shame

Massive improvement, oh and as good as the animations in HL2 are, Uncharted is way better, and KZ2 destroy them both. Really not fair comparisons.

Now about the animations, On the one hand, I do still wish we saw more animation interactions between the Sev and his comrades, but on the other, I am amazed that we are even seeing what we are, it truly is getting closer to its impossible target!!! If/ when we see the enemy AI move around as much (and in strategic manners) as the friendlies, the game will truly exceed the target IMO.

I can't really believe the footages that we've seen so far are in pre-alpha mode. We never know how much more tweaking Guerilla has to do before they feel they've released an AAA game.They have at least the rest of the year to add more eyecandies and improve single and multiplayer gameplay. After all this hype the game's getting for the last few days, at least, I'm pretty sure PS3 owners have something to get really excited about for 2009.

Approved....However,I think that more than the graphics and all now, they should utilize their time on the gameplay....Although it looked great, I didn't see anything that actually caught my eyes....Also hope they come up with some nice kickass multiplayer

They still got 9 months to go. And most developers don't really start polishing graphics until the last 2-3 months of development.

I really really(20) hope that the field looks as alive as it did in the 2005 trailer, the guys bringing in a cart to shoot down a ship, the rocket launcher guy hitting the helghast with an awesome blast and the ship crashing down. Man, that would be even more phenomenal. The thing is the guys we have seen playing play so slowly it really kills the excitement.

12 - as all ps3 games,this one is looking better and better.facial textures are much better.
early heavenly sword footage had wierd lighting and lacked detail until it became a ps3 exclusive.then the devs just went to town.AWSOME

motorstorm didn't look so hot initially,but it became a beast when it and its downloadable tracks released.AWSOME

uncharted looked actually good at first,but the final game had so much detail that it made the early trailers look bland.AWSOME

GTHD at first just looked good based on ps2 code.but GT5 just looks ridiculously good.too AWSOME to compare with any other car racing games.let me toss another AWSOME out there.

from mlb:08 the show,to hot shots,to folklore,to ratchet,games just look phenominal on ps3.even lair looked great.warhawk,a download looked great.

and now,we have killzone,not only silencing the naysayers,it has pushed them to take shots at A.I. because the graphics can't be bagged.sony said ps3 could produce those graphics over TIME,and that's exactly what's happening.from that first screenshot to today,the haters have nothing-to-say-at-all.and it's only going to get better in 9 months.

i'm a believer that call of duty 4 benefited from what sony showed in 2005.it's so coincidental that 2 years later from what sony showed,that cod4 looked so like the killzone target video.anyone that saw the first call of duty on 360 could see how weak it looked in the fall of 2005.there was nothing they could do because that game was already in production.

i think we can all thank sony for reaching for the stars than just going for what works.they have been pushing for NEXT GEN on everything from the CELL processor,bluray,hdmi,home,rem ote play with psp,pseye.and let's not forget,THE GAMES.

can't wait to play this game.

megaton...........

The characters look better but i miss the blood effects and the dark and gritty surroundings of the E3 07 conference. Now the new footage looks good and all but i miss that old dark atmosphere.
