Bungie's Ex Christian Allen: Killzone 2 could easily be done on the 360

Link

Says the 360 is a great system to develop for and that Killzone 2 could easily be done on 360 given guerilla's cooperation.

Interesting read actually.

Except its never going to happenirish4eva

What's with developers saying such things? Remember when some developers said that Crysis could be run on consoles? They swore it was possible ..... but clearly it wasn't.

I fail to see the point here. I'm sure Killzone 2 could be done on PS2 if you made certain "changes". The question isn't whether or not a game can run on another console. The question is could it be done exactly the same, using all the same graphics and effects and still run the same?Maybe, maybe not. But we'll never know anyway because it is a Sony owned title.

I wouldn't be surprised. K2 isn't as far removed from titles like Gears or RE5 as the fanboy wars would have you believe, graphically speaking of course.

From one side: well, he most certainly knows the 360 hardware a lot better than any Sony dev. On the other side: he has relationship with MS, so he could be (and probably is) biased. The "easily" part seems like an exageration.IronBass

Exactly this ^^^

I don't doubt it could, given the time and resources.

Besides fanboys and the uninformed gamer no one doubts that all 360/PS3 can be done on the other with minor differences and tweaks for each. The fact is it won't be done...Flamestos

I'm going to have to assume they know hundreds of thousands of times more about graphics than you.

A guy who used to work for Bungie. Bungie created Halo 3. "Looks at Halo 3 visuals". Ok, nothing to see here

As the cynical person I am I won't believe anything a PR, analyst or dev tells me without any proof.

Nobody knowsKilIzone3

Sadly they couldn't even keep Halo 3 at a steady 30 FPS for online.

Not saying they don't know about 360 hardware, but I sure as hell wouldn't trust them if they said they could emulate KZ2 on 360 "easily" :lol:

You must remember that it wasn't done so easily on the PS3 either. It took a lot of time and money. Also Killzone looks the way it does mostly because of art style and the combination of it and the lighting. Its like asking why the movie the Matrix or 300 wasn't done before it was. Its not that others dont have the ability to create them, its that the developers where the first to envision the combination of components in such a way. If the game is as influencial as many of you think it is, they're will be games produced with similar components in the short future.

Yeah but you also for got to mention this.

Q. Is Working on the PS3 as difficult as some may say?

From my experience tangentially with PS3, it was more difficult than 360 in the past, but from what I have heard this has greatly improved recently. My experience has definitely pointed me to the 360, as that is what I've worked on and that is what I know; but I wouldn't shy away from a PS3 game now.

So as this shows that the PS3 isn't so hard to develope for after all. All that crap they were screamingwas nonsense to begin with. But what is nonsense is the 360 and the fact that they are still failing at an extraordinary rate, and you peoplekeep putting up with it.PS3 is a superior machine and has superior games.(my Opinion)

LMFAO!! Bungie WISHES they could make a game that looks like Killzone 2 on the 360!! Beginning of the last level Visari equals can't be done on 360. Watch the scene fanboys then talk to me.

So as this shows that the PS3 isn't so hard to develope for after all. All that crap they were screamingwas nonsense to begin with.

Ironically, that makes PS3 looks worse...if you catch my drift :P

did anyone expected him to say no it can't be done ?

Like Bungie knows anything about graphics :lol:.Zoso-8

if this was said at the beginning of this gen i would not believe it at all but graphics between the ps3 and 360 are neck and neck. im not a developer so who really knows but judging by games out now its possible

Halo 3 looks like crap compared to killzone 2. Sales wise halo 3 is king though. But Halo 3 looks like crap compared to killzone 2 lol!!

no, it can't be done on the 360. its exclusive. also nothing on the 360 looks this good at this time. if a better looking and playing game can be done we on the 360 we will just have to wait and seeif bungie canmake a better game.

i hope so. but i doubt it.
