Okay...Killzone 2 looks great, but why are cows using the "Bu-bu-bu-but its teh pre alpha!!!!!11!1!!1:cry:" excuse? As soon as someone says something like "The textures need work" or "It looks on par with Gears" cows start posting the excuse everywhere....why?

Hey Lemmings used it for Halo 3 now it's the Cow's turn, and yes Killzone 2 looks great, Looks like the devs pulled through even at this stage....

Can't wait for nintendo's turn....

Well textures arnt something they work on a lot early in the development cycle. Thats why MGS 4 looked AMAZING but had meh textures. Killzone looks STUNNING but like every other game it needs time to truley show off what it cand do.

I'm not using it as an excuse. I'm saying that it looks this freakin' good, and it's still not finished. How good could it look come release!?! The possibilities man!

I'm not saying that it needs to improve, but that it still can, and probably will. how impressive will it be then?

I think pre-alpha means that they still have some work to do, i assume that the game will even look better once they improve the textures and what not.

overall the game looks extremely good, much better than gears imo, exept for the textures, which still look pretty darn close.

Do we actually know what stage of development the game is in?, I remember the devs were saying pre, pre alpha but that was a response to the first screenshot that was leaked.

Anyone can see this is pre-alpha and the impressions on every site wrote it, if you have eyes and mind you will figure it out,go and see the trailer, it has somethings missing and it is obvious.I am not pro but I can see it.

"pre alpha" is the hot word to use in the game industry today to hide the truth. The only stuff that I've seen that was pre alpha were the halo 3 videos from the documentaries when textures were either one solid color or completely missing, THAT'S pre alpha, nothing but a barely there working build, when you have all these textures lighting, and particles going, just pony up, say it's the beta, and admit the graphics aren't going to get much better. "But, Lair is only pre alpha" "But burnout is only pre alpha" "But killzone is only pre alpha" no, its not. WHAT THE HELL DOES PRE ALPHA EVEN MEAN!? Alpha testing is supposed to be when the game is first playable, WHAT IS THIS PRE!?!
