Character models are better on RE5 but KZ2 has alot better lighting affects, some better textures, some worse textures, and overall more on the screen so IMO i think KZ2 beats RE5 but not by alot.

Hmmm, both very good, both advance over each other in certain aspects. I own both for PS3 and enjoy both equally. All that matters to me

Killzone 2 easily RE5 is a great game and is second behind Killzone 2 but in motion the flaws of RE5 really come out like the animations and such. the only areas RE5 beats KZ2 is with character models but thats about it

Which game has better graphics, the one that spent nearly half a decade in development for a single platform or the multiplatform game that has about 2 or 3 years of development time at most alongside a slew of other games from the same developer.

Think carefully on this one.

I won both an Xbox 360 and a PS3, and having played Resident Evil 5 on both systems, I believe Killzone 2 has better graphics.

Do you see a difference between RE5 on PS3 or 360... I saw all these pics being posted in past threads, and then i looked at the same thing on m PS3, and the forum pictures were a lot worse than what was actually on PS3

Technical standpoint it's probably KZ2. RE5 looks better to me with the artstyle and everything else.

Really? I'd say it has very distinctive art direction. Not great mind you, but at least it's not generic. This is even evident in screenshots from the PS2 and PSP titles.

Killzone 2 looks much better. I personally think that the character models in Killzone 2 look better or the same to the ones in RE5. Also the scale of Killzone 2 much larger. Much more movement and open spaces.

RE5 looks good, and in still shots you would be forgiven for thinking RE5 might be able to compete with KZ2. However, once the games are in motion, it becomes very clear that KZ2 looks quite a lot nicer, especially considering the sheer amount of chaos going on, all with a rock solid framerate. Lighting, physics.. everything just comes together really nicely. RE5 has lovely models, but again, when it starts to move it doesn't look as good.

definately Killzone 2. i think all RE5 has going for it are the character models, which i think are just a little better than KZ2's. other than that KZ2 wins.

They both have their ups and downs. RE5 has better character models although I still think the Helghast look awesome.

Killzone 2 wins in the texture department and has more stuff going on.

eh i'll put in my 2 cents as an impartial judge who owns neither system or game. KZ2 is unprecedented in motion. And RE5 takes better screenshots most of the time. As for these comment:

honestly, RE5 would take it technically. it motion KZ2 looks better, but as to what the games are actually doing, i would say RE5. KZ2 only looks better in motion because of the blur because thats what it needs to hide the horror of the textures in that game which if you zoom in to them look absolutely terrible. and on top of that its scale is nothing to brag about. i don't know why cows would be dissapointed with that i mean its on the PS3 too.

I would somewhat agree apart from the idea of the scale of the game. RE5 is so small in scale, with each area probably being a brief run (apart from the larger areas with airboats etc), and it's also full of loading screens.

However this does not detract from the game in the slightest, as it's still awesome

Killzone 2 has the better graphics. It is the best looking console game and the only game that will come close to it (soon) is Uncharted 2. Models are awesome, textures great, gameplay great, scale large = awesome, and animation is the best i have ever seen.You roll all of thattogether and you have yourselfatechnicalmasterpiece.... RE5looks great butnot Killzone great. The topic should be GeOW 2 vs RE5 now that is a comparable showdown and I think GeOW 2 is better in case your wondering.

Yeah, the 80% of the textures are fine. Like any other great game, the horribles ones are well hidden, you'll have to look pretty close to see them. On topic, i don't have RE5, the demo was great looking though, but KZ2 set the bar too high, it does not get any better than that. You can get better looking textures, better looking models in any other game, but the lighting effects, the wind effects, the particles, the sheer amount of things going on KZ2 is what make the game a graphical marvel.

They are both very pretty and technically impressive games... But if you had to pick one, i'd say it's RE5... Which has much better textures, alot going on as well... However, KZ2 has the best lightning...

talk about comparing the 2 best looking games this gen

RE5 is the only game that can really be compared to KZ2

both games have their strong points

BTW both RE5 and KZ2 got a 9.5 in graphics from IGN (GS doesn't give an individual score for graphics)

and no, the 360 looks better

My PS3 version doesn't look like that, in fact the textures look the same. I saw that pic, and I looked at the tires on my PS3 for a basic comparison and they matched. Also on Chris' shirt you can still see the textures quite well, unlike in that pic

Killzone 2, EASILY. RE5 holds up some of the best character models, but thats due to the shocking low rez textures and less going on (think MGS4) K2 even with so much happening at one time, having incredible textures/lighting/particle effects...shows of great model detail. K2 is the total and complete package ATM, IMO. It should be, considering the effort and budget behind it.

That isn't accurate, the PS3 version does NOT look like that. Anyone who has played both games knows its the minor AA and frame rate differences, everything else is identical. As much as i love RE5, It has always been about character models, K2 does more, holds up better graphics all around and simply a technical beasts compared to any console game out right now. You can't just look at the characters models.

Wow IGN even says KZ2's graphics sometimes surpassess the infamous E3 demo. If so then even my beloved Crysis will have to concede. Your thoughts?
