I've got I'll wait until they're out to make judgments, I hate this living in the future business where released games are inconsequential and theoretical games are the only ones worth talking about. Without looking though I'll pick Killzone for teh lulz. ;)

Rage looks the best to me.

The character animations, and the fact that it runs at 60fps (very very important), are amazing.

Both look good, but I find Rage more impressive because it's open world, more fast paced, and runs at double the framerate of KZ3.

Yea its not like RAGEs 60fps,open world and MEGATEXTURES are not technically impressive ;) Id has twice less time to render everything in comparison with KZ3,and just the fact that they can compare is big thing.Anyway...it will be more interesting tomorrow...Crysis 2 comes to play.

I'm not the one who said it, but I agree with them to a point. Underwhelming is stretching it too far, but I do think KZ3 looks better.

I found Killzone 3 to be much better looking when seeing the two side by side. At first I thought Rage looked amazing, but after that comparison Killzone 3 is definitely beyond it.

They look about equal. I am sure if Rage was a linear corridor shooter that run at 30 FPS, it would look a LOT better than Killzone 3. But the fact it even compares to it while being a new IP, having a wide open world with vehicles, maintaining 60 FPS and producing "megatextures" is significantly more impressive than a linear shooter that already had it's engine built from ground up with Killzone 2.

After watching those videos I will go with Rage barely. Rage running at 60FPS and being open world is pretty cool.

Rage looks most impressive among three, probably the best game to come out in 2011.

They went for a stylized looked and imo nailed it. While KZ went for a more realistic look, and failed imo.

I think the Helghast look great. I just wish GG would fix the whole issue of the main character wearing a t shirt in the arctic. :?

Suit yourself. But when the enemies look like acrobatic mutants nerds at a Kratos cos-play convention, it becomes a little bland to me.

Kingpin0114

Lot people easily dismiss 60 FPS. Lot of good looking games runs at 30 FPS but they don't look nearly as good as Rage. Also, draw distance in outdoor areas is probably best i've seen in any game. Animations are unlike any other game. This is easily the best looking game technically.

That's kinda pointless to compare two really different games. KZ3 should be compared to Crysis 2 and to a lesser extent to Halo Reach. Rage is an open-world game that is closer to Borderlands, Stalker and even Fallout 3 more so than to KZ3.

The thing that really stands out between these two games is the difference in gun animations and feel. This is a very important aspect of an fps, and Killzone 3 looks to be miles and miles ahead.

Weak comparison.

At this point, I'd say Rage tops KZ3 concerning gfx.

Your comparing a open world RPG type game to a FPS. There is no way to properly compare them. Graphically, KZ3 or even KZ2 is much more impressive. I have seen alot of Rage footage, its one of most anticipated games.

Guys this article is clearly saying that Rage looks better BUT, this is not about the graphics The article writer is correct. RAGE looks excellent but doesn't have a lot of stuff going on in the environments. KZ3 has all the snow effects, the explosions, the particles, everything is happening at once to produce the feeling that you are in a war. Both games look good, LOOKS wise Rage is better, technically Killzone 3 I guess trumps RAGE. I have changed my opinion from a couple of days ago where I said that RAGE was technically better. And at above, yes RAGE is open world, but once you go to the towns, it essentially does turn into a corridor shooter in some cases

They booth look good in different ways. Rage has tons of texture detail, and 60fps is a big plus. But it's also pretty static. Killzone is much more stylized, and has a lot going for it in terms of dynamic lights and effects.

I'll take both, I think. :P

Such ignorant drivel. I knew I was reading rubbish when he made the car analogies so common among fanboys and then using the word "technicality" without going into further detail. Rage is open world running at 60fps and an environment that trumps KZ3, it's the graphics winner. But what can you expect from Playstationunlimited.

Gears 3 looks better than KZ3... so lets have Gears 3 vs RAGE. I'd say RAGE still wins though.

KZ3 has destructibility. Rage runs at 60fps, and at this point looks better. Sounds like a reasonable tradeoff.

The impressive thing to me is the KZ2/3 are graphical showcases built from the ground up for PS3, with astronomical dev costs. Yet, their being matched/beaten in gfx quality by a multiplat that had to be optimized for 3 different platforms. Same with Crysis 2. Respect +1 for id and Crytek.

did anyone read? He said rage looked better but KZ3 was in pre alpha. AND that Kz3 had more going on, on screen. And RAGE IA were dumb compared to KZ3 aka Doom style, SOkz3 BEING THE BETTER ALL AROUNF GAME. SORRy for cap lock,
