Yeah but the video looks much better than the screenshots, so what the hell does it matter?

Sadly not surprising. I guess Sony wants to regain all the hype they had after E3 2005. Pathetic.

Way to play it off from the two COW responses so far.

Should have posted the COMPARISION shots form KOTAKU they REALLY show the differences. The touch ups are LIGHT years ahead of the game itself.

well i have pretty much no doubt now that the game isn't going to live up to hype. you don't doctor unless you're trying to sell something you don't have.

I've seen the before and after, and people are seriously making this a big deal, they literally changed the color, from the before (where it was a lot of gray) to the one you see in that link where theres more brown, thats seriously all I saw, was the changing of color.

im sorry, but it just looks likes sumone turned up the constrast on their TV :? or maybe its because the images are so small that i cant really see a discernable difference other than that one looks like the TV had a contrast value of 30 and the other had a contrast value of 80.

I simply cannot believe, that after years of developers releasing screenshots with 8x the resolution of the original game, that anyone would even care about running something through a photoshop filter or two.

And yes, all of the Killzeone screenshots released have been native resolution with none of that downscaling bullshot nonsense you got with so many other games (Halo 3, I'm looking at you).

dude...at the demonstration they actually had the PS3's out and actually moved with the six-axis, selected the game and played it. And some game review sites even got a chance to play the game and they all said it looked fantastic. If the graphics had been downgraded, trust me, there would have been sumthing said about it, considering how most of the hype regarding this game was based off of graphics.

That's just it though - Cows are just hyping KZ2 for it's graphics and not the actual game.

The first KZ was absolute garbage so I don't blame them.

The only reason Cows are hyping its graphics is because Sony can use the game as a showcase to shift more PS3's - sales are all the Bovine care about.

And people wonder why nobodys buying any PS3 games :roll:

yeah - because sony never did that before did they? with dummy PS3s? lmao. does nobody remember that? a certain gaming conference where it was found out after that a game was demo'd on something that was NOT a PS3, but the devs were trying to make people think it was by putting one out?

pretty gullible if you think just having a PS3 present with a WIRELESS sixaxis controller is indicative of a game running on a retail PS3 SKU.

dude - it's not a conspiracy when they get caught fudging screens - i'm just saying i don't think the video we saw was running off of PS3s, could have been streaming from an PC based SDK - like what happened at TGS.

why would you fake a screen?

a) to make the screen look more in line with trailers, or pre-rendered play - or play on a PC SDK that looked sharper than the PS3 product does.

b) to try to sell the game based on something it doesn't have, i.e. great visuals.

be as gullible as you like Teuf, I'll wait until we see it running on PS3 in demo or retail form.

for god sakes, everyone does that, so guerilla has courtesy to say they did and get blame for it, watch the trailer for KZ2 again before saying anything.

so u r telling me that the game journalist from Gamespot, IGN, 1UP and so forth who were actually at the Guerilla games head quarters playing the alpha builds were so unknowledgable of their medium that they couldnt tell a real PS3 from a fake one? If thats what you chose to believe then Kudos to u....
