Crysis 2 vs Kilzone 3 (PC vs PS3) Ultimate Graphical Showdown

OMG, watch the new PC footage of Crysis 2, and then go watch the new PS3 footage of Killzone 3.......Can you believe those graphics are running on a 5 year old hardware? It looks so F'N realistic......and this is online multiplayer, 24 players max, huge maps, 720p on a 5 year old hardware. No sub-HD here

>PC vs PS3

PS3 has no chance here, move on.

Both games looking impressive8)

PC will always have better graphics then consoles, Please, do not try to make a comparison. If you do, compare a PS3 Crysis 2 to a PS3 Killzone 3

get some PC footage first. the crysis 2 footage you linked to is obvious console footage/settings or if that is PC then it is a downgrade from the original.

PC = automatic win.

On consoles though, I think KZ3 will beat it.

The lighting in the killzone 3 video looks phenominal. Both games look awsome.

Its not PC.Its console settings rendered with PC(proly to get higher framerate for trailer).I think both look great.I would give KZ3 advantage with AA,textures and sound and Crysis 2 with post processing effects like motion blur and lighting.

I love those KZ3 gun sounds. theyre so awesome.

OT: Crysis 2 no contest

They both look equally amazing IMO.

Graphics aren't just about resolution, though. While it's important, it doesn't take into account AA, AF or draw distances.

Killzone 3 does look very good, and is impressive for 5 year old hardware. Console devs have all sorts of "cheats" to ensure that their games look good - limited fields of view (no need for long draw distances), easily repeatable segments of terrain (lowering the memory footprint)...limited numbers of textures, etc etc.

But Crysis 2 on a 1-2 year old PC is going to crush anything the PS3 can do, purely on the basis it has more modern hardware, rendering techniques and drivers.

It's when the PS4 comes along that things get interesting (for a year or two, at any rate).

Agreed

Oh look, it's this thread again.

killzone 2 looks great, but its crysis no contest. i cant wait for a comparison between the single player in both of these games.

PC-Crysis 2 vs PS3 Killzone 3 =PC-Crysis 2

PS3-Crysis 2 vs PS3 Killzone 3=PS3 Killzone 3

The problem is that trailer is CONSOLE SETTINGS,not PC.PC maxed will blow KZ3 and any other console game into oblivion.Believe it.

They both look great! Also that´s not PC footage from Crysis2.

Let's wait until they're released please? we'll probably get a whole bunch of these threads lol

hmm... Crysis 2 on the PC max settings will probably make killzone 3 look last gen to be honest.

I wonder how well my 5770 will fair against this beast :(

Wouldn't it be a better comparison if it was the ps3 version... I mean we already know the pc version will look better than KZ3.

Thats the problem, its been 5 yrs, ok for 4 -12 yr olds, not for teen & mature audiences, move on with latest technology

The PS3 is not a super computer. It is a 5 year old computer that was barely good when it launched. All consoles are like that, except the Wii which is a ten year old computer.

two examples of consoles being top of the line or very close to it when launched would be the n64 and the xbox 360.

the Ps3 was pretty good back in 2006, but since the 360 and ps3 are the same pretty much while the ps3 is a whole year older is why it was just pretty good instead of top of the line.

I don't know anything about the neo geo :P

but yeah the xbox was pretty beastly for 2001. Gamecube wasn't that far behind either.

That Killzone 3 video looks pretty meh.

You can tell the consoles are suffering heavily from old hardware especially when you view things like at 1:22 in the video.

NeoGeo was the king of sprites and 2d graphics back on 16bit gen. I wish i could have had one but the console and it´s games were incredibly expensive!

Crytek has said it will run better then the original crysis did and you will be able to run it on higher settings then before. I have a 5770 and i can achive this levels of graphics in crysis so if crysis 2 is better optimised and looks better like crytek calims then it should fair fairly well.

Quad Hd Crysis!

Given that Crysis 1 pushed modern PC technology, which is considerably more powerful than what is running in 2005 spec consoles. The only reason Crysis 2 would fail to beat a console game; is because of restrictions being placed on it that didn't exist in its predecessor. In this case, cross platform compatibility with consoles.

Given that the point of Cows going after Crysis in the past; was to prove the capabilities of their system could compare with modern PC hardware. Beating a version of Crysis designed to scale with current gen consoles in mind; wouldn't really be a victory in that old campaign. But as people like to remind me, that's history.

In today's comparison, same games with higher numbers, I just don't think this comparison says anything significant about PS3. A console beating a console limited version of Crysis wouldn't really say anything about PS3s capabilities, the PC isn't being fully utilized; like with Crysis 1.

Quad Hd Crysis!

quad HD is 4x 1080p right? isn't that just video mode or something? :P

what settings do you play the game at?

Actually I don't have my rig yet but I'm ordering all the parts february 7 :D

Both graphics look great, but from those gameplay videos Crysis 2 looks way more fun with all the different suit modes evolving the way multiplayer combat is played. Looks to be TF2 level of fun.

KZ3 looks like a great multiplayer game, but apart from the graphics there certainly nothing there to distinguish it from every other MP shooter before it. However I will wait for the official release, as there may be some hitherto unknown features added. This point in time though MP on C2 looks like the winner for me!

Do you like BFBC2? Then you will love Killzone

And No, it is nothing like COD, it's100X better, i also didn't believe it when i first heard it

yep liked BFBC2 but thought the MP in KZ2 was average. So hopefully they have added some new elements in, to beef up the MP component.

Though I am convinced that the PS3 is indeed a good system, the huge differences in recommended viewing distance means that developers can get away with crappier textures.

Crysis 2 PC hasn´t been shown yet,and when they do it´s going to be superior in every way to KZ2,unless they´ve downgraded the PC version because of multiplatform development,wich wouldn´t surprise me at all.

In fact,I´m pretty much expecting that to be the case.

That C2 trailer was in-freakin-credible! I almost bit a hole through my lip :shock:

Killzone 3 and Crysis 2 on console could be debatable but compared to the PC version of Crysis 2, no chance.
