HALO REACH is the current FPS graphic king on console. Not KILLZONE 2 anymore.

PLEASE SEE LINK!!!

Yeah halo reach is the current FPS graphic king on console:
Yes i've played killzone 2 & i did a direct comparison between reach & killzone 2 at home what i found out is that killzone 2 has some good effects (post processing effects,destructible enviroments & deffered lighting) but it has flaws like:
#1. lack of colours

#2. Tight linear corridor confined enviroments.

#3. less amount of enemies onscreen

#4. No split screen co-op campaign.

#5. low res enviromental textures.
COMPARED TO
Halo reach with
#1. 4 times lager enviromental scale than halo 3(despite how big halo 3 scale is).

#2. More than 40 dynamic smart AI on screen at once.

#3. More than 40 dynamic HDR light effect.

#4. Different colour array in background.

#4. Full 3d rendered epic skybox.

#5. 4 players split screen co-op campaign local & online.

So technicaly no game stresses a console as halo reach does.

The truth is that GG used tricks & shortcuts like limiting colours,limiting scales & AI on screen to archieve killzone 2 vissuals while bungie didnt sacrifice or use any form of trick such as limiting colours or limiting enviromental scales to archieve halo reach's visual.

Halo reach' sandbox large scale enviroment,huge amounts of smart AI on screen & finally meeting 720p hd & increased poly counts is a big K.O to killzone 2.

TRUTH is bitter.

Its funny how you call out GG for using 'tricks' when Halo Reach uses just about every trick in the book to try to maintain its 30fps/sub HD, HDR lighting, fake backdrops, temporal AA, etc.

Reach is an overall impressive game(congrates to Bungie), but its still using a slightly updated Halo 3 engine as Killzone 2 was a huge leap from Killzone 1.

Reach is only comparable to Resistance 2 at best.

[QUOTE="Zero_epyon"][QUOTE="Animal-Mother"] Lol, you wanna talk about excessive look at KZ2.TREAL_Since

What I'm happy about is the new AA they are using. TheQuincunx AA used in KZ2 made things more blurrier than we are used to in games. Looking at the gameplay videos of KZ3, it looks really clean. The edges are smooth, but not as smudged as KZ2.

reach looks good, but i've seen a lot of titles that look better.

Oops, don't they look the same anyway? :P

hey...hey...psssstt.. hey! hey! That picture earlier was from halo 3!!!!

Is it so hard to admit that the PS3 can produce better graphics than the 360 ?zekere

No..just no

FPS graphics king... on consoles? Can we get anymore specific than that? lol There's only one king. If you want to debate Killzone 2 versus Halo Reach, by all means do it. But don't bring those darn terms into the discussion. :PStevo_the_gamer

If you can't beat them, join them. I'm thinking of making a "Hack n' Slash Graphics King on Handheld " for the next God of War game. :P

Adding genre comparisons ON TOP of platform specifics into the mix is funny lol. Shoot man, this is anarchy and within the rules of a TC's thread, basically anything goes.

Better comparison, but to be honest, there are probably better Reach pics out there. This is just the first decent one I could find out of the wave of low res pics people took.

Its hard to find a picture of Reach not resembling Halo 3. Ah, you get the point. :P

Cows just can't HANDLE how good Halo: Reach is, can they :DCuteCakes

Thats Halo 3?? Could have fooled meh :P

There, my bad Lemmos.

tonitorsi

No wait. I believe the bold shows your intent here.

EDIT: You seem to be on a streak of insulting users and deleting your posts. ;)

You know, its hard to find a picture of Reach not resembling Halo 3. Ah, you get the point. :P

Here

Hope this helps

Edit: You're supposed to be proud of Reach graphical benchmark on consoles, not insulted. :P

That first KZ2 pic shows off some pretty low res textures, but you made your point. Might also let Lemmings realize how close the two are in their color pallette as well. (Out of the first pics for both games, KZ2 seems to have slightly more color in there, lol).

No.

tonitorsi

That was a picture of Halo 3. Reach looks much better.

I would imagine that Killzone 2 would not look anywhere near as "good" as it does if its environments were as large as those in Halo Reach.CuteCakes

Stop comparing Reach with teh ZONE!

they are both great games in their own way

Even the largest map on KZ2 is only 1/3 the size of Reach's smallest map.

I know cows will never accept the truth but i've just proved my point with the almighty DIGITAL FOUNDRY tech analisys. Cows will keep on yelling killzone 2 looks better even though killzone 2 did nothing spectacular (just a linear corridor shooter). Halo reach has lots of unique effects especialy tesselation which must have made it possible render so many polygons in a single scene without severe performance hit. NOTE: the playstation 3 has no tessellator so it a safe to say that ps3 will break if it attempts runs a game like halo reach. Cows us to say that say 360 couldnt run killzone 2 because of its differed renderer.monkeysmoke

- First Person cover system?

- Some of the best AI this gen?

- Best looking console game?

- Scored 9/10 on GS, Metacritics, and Userscores?

- Took a practically dead game and turned it into one of the top console FPS franchises?

^^ Pretty spectacular stuff, expectially the last one.

- First Person cover system? Wasnt the first for that I think Rainbow Six Vegas covered that one!!!

- Some of the best AI this gen? Ya right the Hellghans run around in circles looking for a place to hide and when they do finally they poke there heads out at two different spots!

- Best looking console game? Ya if Halo Reach was crammed into a cab on a linear route it would look the same if not better than KZ2

- Scored 9/10 on GS, Metacritics, and Userscores? Got me there!

- Took a practically dead game and turned it into one of the top console FPS franchises? It's so popular that hardly anyone plays it online, Oh and still The Halo Killer it is NOT and will never be!!

^^ Pretty spectacular stuff, expectially the last one. Not Really! :)

ok im halo fan too but kz2 does had large environments too,look at pyrrhus rise (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WRnt0NKsB2w) most likely bigger than Boneyard,kz2 does have better ai than reach
