Sorry because of the quality and low res, but the main things are the wall textures :P

lol all that bluray disk space and still multiple repeated textures.

Wow, you are right. Those are copy and pasted onto the walls... lol. No big deal, not sure I would noticed it had you not knit-picked it for me, but that's funny... lol.

I can tell that even the most ugly textures sometimes look better with off-screenshots specially if they are taken from further distances..
Teufelhuhn

And that is the reason I find them to look worse. They look blurry and unclear to me, which looks worse than clearer, low rez textures would look to me.

[QUOTE="MojondeVACA"]Off screenshots again?MojondeVACA

have fun hating it, bcz ill have fun playing it

Actually, I think off-screen photos, and screen caps in general, often look much worse than what a game looks like running on a real TV in front of me.

alright then when comparing these shots with gears 2 post some offscreen shots and you guys will be even.

Well that was what i meant with my comment,it makes the texture look better than they really do.MojondeVACA

the only time ive seen that happening is when you take a really high-res capture and DOWNSIZE it to a small resolution and then upload the picture ALA the new alan wake screens, or just about any PR shots of well just about any game....

nice try with the weak sauce though

:shock:

Compared to that Gears 2 is minor, like the King's second in command.

Oh wait, RE5 is Killzone 2's second in command, I guess Gears 2 is not even Number 2. Oh wait, Far Cry 2 looks better than Gears 2. Lets face it Xbots, Gears 2 is not as impressive as Gears 1 when it came out. Gears 1.5 FTW!

I agree that KZ 2 will be the king but I don't really agree with the bolded statement. Gears 2 looks incredible, and I own Far cry 2.

Just for the record, I'm sick of Killzone 2. I've seen all the same gameplay videos over and over so much that when the game hits I'll be looking forward to getting past the first level because I've seen it played so many friggin times.

Also, from what I've seen, I think the gameplay looks rather generic and unoriginal. For instance, like a few minutes into the game you are already welcomed to exploding barrels. Nice.

But the game does look better than alot of games out there, so it does have that going for it. I'm sure it will be a good game, but it wont the AAAE some are hoping it to be. I think HipHopGamer is it's biggest fan.

Yeah, and COD4 textures look good from a distance and low res pics.

And that wall texture is horribly re-used.

EuroMafia

How many artists do you want to be making hundereds of unique wall textures?

KZ2 has some good textures and some badmingo123

Yes, like every game on the market. Nothing to worry about.

That wasn't the texture artists fault. That happens to be the level designer fault. I think that because its a beta they will catch things like that.

lol try getting into the Killzone 2 beta....your opinion of the game will change DRAMATICLLY.

In terms of gfx its not even questionable really

Killzone 2>>>>>>>>>>gears 2

the atmostphere in killzone 2 is incredible.....the flowing smoke throughout the level....the fireballs in the background....when you play this game you will see

killzone 2>>>>>>>.gears 2 in terms of gfx

gears 2 is the king

See I htink its ok to be nit picky about certain things(especially if they water down the expierience) and I see you post time to time and see that graphics really matter to you, but for all the I guess fanboys that really nitpick textures, who's really gonna run upto a wall and stare at it for 5 minutes saying "man these textures blow"

I'm not moved by distanced environment shots when it is the character models that look like mud to me.

Don't bother showing me I have already seen plenty.

Repetition of textures has absolutely nothing to do with texture resolution, nor does it have anything to do with processing power. If you had 10,000 repeated textures on a 9800 GTX, the GTX would explode from the strain. Their repetition doesn't matter, and that's not what TC is trying to illustrate.

Lemmings fail.

Wow. This whole thing is never going to end, is it?

Can I save everyone some trouble? To cows, 360 games will look terrible no matter what you show. To lemmings, PS3 games will look terrible no matter what you show. To gamers, they will look fine.

It is the nature of the fanboy.

SpruceCaboose

I don't understand this fuss about console graphics. If they cared so much about graphics why not buy a PC? Graphics are not a consoles strong point.

Looks good, I wonder though why the shots weren't taken more up close.ZimpanX

Ask PSU :) anyways they don't really need to be very high quality cuz the center of the pics are the wall textures, dough i wish i could find higher rez ones

HAHA!

Gears2 is the king made me lol, thanks.

Gears1 was the king at one point but not anymore.

If you want to go by that...IGN review Gears2 graphics: 9.5

MGS4 graphics: 10 :P

My sarcasm detector isnt working so well....is that sarcasm?

I have read the reviews and most importantly i have played it , Gears2 does not have the "wow" factor Gears1 had , a lot of games that look amazing have come out since then , Gears is no longer graphics king..... maybe Gears3 when they use Unreal Engine4.

I really thought Gears2 would be the graphics king, but after some reviews and actual gameplay, i think it's a tie with uncharted/mgs4, or maybe uncharted looks better...?

Anyways this is a KZ2 thread :)

Can you give some? cuz from what i know neither the GT nor the IGN review say anything about that (video review) and + Gears got a 9.5 at graphics at ign :|

They are low resolution and are incredibly "flat" looking, like most PS3 games. Is there something in the PS3 that prevents quality bump-mapping or other texture effects to get rid of the flatness?foxhound_fox

I agree it does look flat.
