KILLZONE 2 Shaping up VERY Nicely

New pictures of Killzone 2 and I know what your thinking "seen it all before" well look closely at these certain pictures I have linked.

Picture 1

Picture 2

Picture 3

Picture 4

Picture 5

Picture 6

Picture 1: Notice how detailed the gun and the solider with the head band looks, notice any Jaggies on the gun?? Notice the detail on the headband solider.

Picture 2: if you don't see improvement here, you must be a fanboy. Take a look at the effects where the drop ship is landing it's blurred due to the wind blowing out from underneath it, you can see the details marked in the hip it's self, from above to below there are very little jagged lines and with that much detail put in is VERY impressive.

Picture 3: Concept art is the first thing that comes to mind when looking at this picture, and when you think about knowing this is ingame play that is a extremely good thing.

Picture 4: Mmm ... Detailed Helghast. Seriously though, from barrels of the guns to the details in the coats, to the quality in the environments, Guerrilla has really done an awesome job in graphics with this project.

Picture 5: Have you ever seen that much detail put into a grunt? I mean seriously did Crisis even pay that close attention to skin tone facial expressions or even facial flaws with the enemy's??

Picture 6: Guerrilla needed to work on the shadowing and worked on it they have.

Seriously though there is tons to say about what Guerrilla has done here, but I am to lazy to explain it all and give all the details. If you must just do a comparison for yourselves between before and after pictures from what we all saw in July.

Still though there is Always work for improvement, even in this game there are still flaws to be worked on. Lets just all hope that Guerrilla will not rush on this and maybe it could be the best FPS to come out on a console. I think if given till at least November of next year this will be a AAA title.

the links dont work, on IGN the page says they cannot show the page, is this just me? how did you find the picture? Google? I will have to try something like that.

wish i could look, but ign wont let me. :(jack_michael

My link did not work as you cannot enlarge the picture, but I found the same stuff on gamespo, from Dec 3rd

Does this game have any bright colors? Only reason as i see it having good grapics is because everything is or has the same color or shade of grey/black.AfgZeroVirus

that's only one level that they have been showing, and if I remember corectly the first game had awide variety of levels, I remember the cherry blossom stage, beautifull(at that time), so most likely we'll get some brighter levels.

It's one level, playing late at day under thick storm clouds. What would you expect things to look like?

I expect there'll be a variety of levels and surroundings, showing off different settings and visual moods.

Sorry if the links didn't work for you, it still works fine for me and apparently some others. Thanks for linking something that will hopefully work with those who can't get through.

In Pic 1 I notice the guys finger clipping thru the trigger guard, and his fingers are nasty, skin on his right arm is pretty lame to. This game just looks alot better in motion pics really down gradeitAnoch20

but that stuff happens in any game, screenshots or actual gameplay. In Assassins Creed the bottom of Altairs "cape?" goes through the ground and the wood on lookout points, and I could list pretty much every game in existance. Its not the first time I've seen a finger through a gun or some object in a game.

Its not that big of a deal

I just hope Guirrilla release more videos and talk in depth about certain elements of the game, I mean come on is that so much to ask. The don't show us KZ2 for 2 years and then when they do show us it's spectacular but then they are making us wait again. IT BETTER NOT TAKE ANOTHER TWO YEARS !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!Swift_Boss_A

I hope they won't release a lot after this, because too many videos/screenshots crushesthe game experience because you already know what you are going to see.

plus i find it much more difficult and creative to create a world as convincing as the real one that doesn't actually exist than to try and replicate the real world. but that aside, it takes nothing away from crysis, amazing amazing graphics.ronniepage588

I don't know if you're talking to me or not, but if you are I'm just telling the tc not to compare them. He said that KZ 2 had better grunt faces then Crysis, which, imo, is not true. That is all.

awesome, this game looks to really put the ps3's capabilties to the test.hashimgillani1

Those pics are a 720p resolution. I thought KZ2 was supposed to be 1080p?

Still looks awesome at 720p though. If they have to bump down to 720p so they can get more gameplay in (more stuff on the screen) then I am totally A-OK with that.

At this point, I am not too concerned about the visuals anymore since I know it will be a nice looking game. All I care about, and hope is that they providean unbroken online mode!!!!! mrvic87

Also I hope they won't screw up on the story because KZ has a compelling story line and I believe the story going to pick up from the first KZ and Liberation. Almost every shooters these days have very nice graphics and gameplay but they some how always fall short on the story department. I hope KZ II will have strong plot and story to tell in the game... Just like Kojima got his MGS4 Saga Finale on lock.

Am i the only person not impressed with the textures on walls, floors, buildings... etc ? aaron5829

I'm pretty happy with the textures, medium res but heavily varied.

to the tc: the game looks incredible, but don't compare it to Crysis. I can confidently say that there will never ever be a ps3 game that looks as good as Crysis. Look at this: http://www.gamespot.com/pages/image_viewer/frame_lead.php?pid=931665&img=135 this is just a regular grunt you fight in crysis. These games are in completely different leagues though. Crysis goes for a realistic look while KZ 2 goes for a stylized look. They are the two best looking games ever imo. end rant.PCschoolorebel

Yeah I hear what your saying, I didn't mean to compare it to Crisis, but I was just comparing as some of the textures on the Grunts in Killzone 2 can be equally comparable to that in Crisis, which is actually pretty dang impressive at a console vs. PC stand point.

[QUOTE="aaron5829"]Am I the only one not impressed with textures on walls, floors, buildings... etc ?emitsu97

I agree, the amount of textures in this game due to the buildings, lightning storms, enemies, etc is very impressive. It's just amazing that this game is not close to being finished and how much it has progressed, and the realism of the shadowing is just frightening.

But unless you want cartoony graphics with space jumps, giant apes and little lizards that scream like Ewalks running around waving guns made by Mattel??

I have been tracking this game since E3

I am really hoping that this game lives up to the hype!:)

I forgot one thing
