Shattered Horizon Graphics or Killzone 2 Graphics?

So we all know Crysis and then Uncharted 2 have the best graphics of any game at the moment. But what about KZ2 and Shattered Horizon? which has better graphics?

I have to go with Shattered Horizion

Killzone 2 looks better. SH graphics don't look very good imo, it's so bland.

I guess SH is technically better, but it looks really boring.

It does look bland though and boring. I don't even think it has an art style.

Not impressive

killzones art is not good at all. Its kindof a joke. When it comes to art and design, all KZ2 has is its signiture Helgast Helmet design but after that its standard dark scifi design and atmosphere.

SH looks waaaaay better

KZ2 has better particle effects and lightning than what we have seen of SH. There's alot more going on in KZ2.

Shattered Horizon is better from a technical standpoint.

Better particle effects, maybe, but SH lighting is much better and more complicated than KZ2s

SH has fake lighting. You see those lights at the top left? That's fake lighting. The only lighting from what we've seen from SH is from the sun as it is casting shadows on objects.

you idiot, Shattered Horizon is in space, all of that lighting is from the sun or the suns light reflected off of the Earth's surface.

and anyway, SH still looks BETTER.

jettpack

No need for insults.

I'm pointing out that SH has fake lightning and therefore creating unimpressive shadows. The textures aren't anything to boast about as well.

I dont understand what you mean by fake lighting? That makes no sense. and whatever you mean by that, Shattered Horizon's lighting is better than KZ2s. Its pretty obvious. And the textures are excellent. Did you look at the picutres i posted? KZ2s textures are blurry whereas Shattered Horizon's are not.

And aslo, Despite being a game in space, SH still has more color than KZ2. which makes me LOL

SH looks better tecnically. The graphics are also really good, but I think Killzone wins. I'll wait till SH comes out to actually judge.Roushrsh

Its already out

fake lighting = emitting light without a light source. As in you're not letting the light source do the lighting but instead the lighting is put at a pre-determined spot and will never change.

Also you are using bad pics of kz2, here's a better one

uc2 doesnt have better graphics then sh

also lol at that ps3 fanboy fake lighting

its a picture so how do you know what you are saying is true

carter15kd5

no shadows and reflections from top left lights on the screen i provided of SH.

Shattered horizon lacks graphical variety, but it's technically better, but games like this will never be crowned as graphics king, unlike Crysis

I don't think Killzone 2 has much of a artstyle either, Shattered horizon doesn't look bland, but boring because of the landscape. I never find space graphics appealing.

did you somehow miss the giant space station in the screenshot or what?

Which runs in a higher resolution? With higher resolution textures? Using DX10?

I think SH takes this one.

I honestly dont know. Shattered Horizon seems to have high requirements but that doesnt necessary mean its better and its not that impressive. I am undecided.

I guess SH is technically better, but it looks really boring.

emorainbo

Looking at SH's system requirements, which are a higher-end dual core CPU and a Geforce 8800GT (and thats minimum!) it sure should look better than Killzone 2, though in my opinion it does (technically) but is way duller looking.

:| It's been out for a while

on a serious note: anyone who says kz2 is either:

1) a sony fanboy

2)mad that their pc cant run sh

also, stalker looks way better than uc2...so you should change your op

Why are the Cows so Butthurt?

SH is on PC. This means that it can run at extremely high resolutions (1680x1050, 1920x1080, 2560x1600). These resolutions are also what is actually seen on screen,unlike consoles, which have to upscale to reach such resolutions without crippling the system.

Also, there are more than 2 colours. So, in graphics, Shattered Horizon gets my vote.

P.S- I don't hate consoles, but pitting PC against a Console isn't really fair.

Please dont even bring Stalker to graphic discussions. Its an awesome game but it doesnt beat Uncharted 2.

KZ2 has far more depth to the image which is a huge plus for me.

Yeah if you like performing jumps that take forever to land if at all :lol:.

sh is objectively better looking.

in terms of style, both are almost impossibly boring and uncreative, especially for being 2009 games, its totally inexcusable. i understand sh was going for a 'realistic' look, which is cool, but that doesnt mean it can be without style. to see realistic treatment of space exploration with a sense of style the cartoon 'planetes' is a good example.
