Only if the PS3 had a good controller for FPS games. Is killzone 2 going to support K/M?

Nice opinion.  Crysis just has large environments and nothing else.  Its repetative and has 2d fire the game is outdated.  Gears 2 is graphics king.

The way I understood it it was'nt a matter of bad controls but a matter of them not being appealing to everyone due to the realistic approach they went for (lots of recoil etc).

Good preview. I can see the controls and mechanics frustrating some gamers that are used to CoD4. It's not a matter of them being bad, but the approach and design of KZ2. If it works within it's own design, then it's all good, I don't like shooters that are identical in those regards. This goes to show that KZ2 isn't just like CoD4.

Hopefuly KZ2 will be keyboard & mouse friendly :?

It IS possible for online play as well ...all they have to do is separate the guys with k/m from the ones with controllers.

 

Something like this:

- controller VS controller

- k&m VS k&m

- controller VS k&m (just for fun lol)

 

sigh, I wish they would start to implement it in this one rather than KZ3 ...if they would ever do it :x

You know, if you console fanboys really cared about FPS graphics, you'd all own gaming PC's... And if you did own PC's and play the better looking FPS`s, you probably wouldn`t care about who gets the silver medal. But, here you are bickering, so...

Good preview. More sites are calling it the best looking shooter (on consoles of course). But I think KZ2 could pass for a PC game honestly. I'm not saying it looks as good as Crysis, but compared to other console shooters KZ2 is in a league of it's own.

But this isn`t about just preferring console FPS`... I own a rig capable of running anything out there right now, and the Halo series has been my favorite FPS series of the past 7 or so years (you can stick that in your pipe and smoke it Hermits - that includes the whole Half-Life 2 saga, which I've played and quite enjoyed). But since this thread is talking about graphics, would I say that I prefer console FPS graphics to PC? Heck no... So, do you prefer console FPS graphics to PC FPS graphics?

In the console realm PC's really don't matter to Cows and Lemmings. It's mostly a comparison of PS3 and 360. I'm a PC gamer as well, but I need to upgrade my rig to play Crysis and STALKER.

I quite enjoy it. I wouldn't want to use a controller in competitive play, but when playing just for fun, it's comfortable, it's not awkward, they are easier to use in a variety of different seating arrangements... Yeah, I quite enjoy FPS on controllers.

Dont forget IGN too. From Multiplayer Beta Preview:

"it's hard to see how anyone could deny the sheer technical achievement of the game. No online shooter in the console market could possible claim to look better than Killzone 2, or feature more atmosphere and eye for detail."

No. I know PC graphics pwn the consoles, But your first point was "if you really cared....". and I still care about the console graphics

I quite enjoy it.

Yeah, if the game is designed to play well on a controller then it's perfect. Halo ushered in a loose standard for console FPS controls (and Halo on PC is a bit weird with KB/M). But there are plenty of games I'd rather play on PC like TF2, HL, and of course exclusives such as Crysis and STALKER.

My first point was, in shorthand, "If you really care about FPS graphics, you'll own a PC and consoles won't be that important." If you DO worry about graphics, get the heck away from consoles - they will always be second best after the first year or so of their life cycle. And if you hold avoid games/platforms because of graphics, consoles will always be off your to-play list. So if you're bickering about "best graphics" as if it really meant something on consoles... Hah.

It's not the end of the world, but since they polished the game so much why not make a few extra polishes while they're still at it? :P

Why should you stay away from consoles if you care about graphics? I care. They are not the only thing to a game, but I care about them. The PS3 and 360 may not be able to stack up against the PC, but they are far better than something like the Wii. I will continue to care about console graphics, whether the PC is better or not :?

It does mean something in the console realm. I care about graphics to an extent. And alot of shooters on consoles range from "getting the job done" to "looking absolutely amazing". And even after a year or two, these console shooter visuals will still please and contribute to your experience (won't be the best ever though). I don't have to get away from consoles to be concerned about graphics. I'm partly a PC gamer at heart (started out gaming on PC) but it's too expensive right now :(. If I could I'd play PC games (shooters) as well as console games (shooters) and be perfectly fine with the visuals and respective experiences they provide.
