WOW The New Killzone 2 footage is awesome

Some of you people really need to take off the blinders. I know you're excited about the game, but that demonstration was a very poor one. Putting graphics aside, the gameplay look like nothing more than a slower FPS with some targeting issues. In the first vid, whoever is playing the game - a developer - can't even lock on to a nearby enemy to kill him. Missed with a rocket launcher!!! Meanwhile he's taking hit after hit (I like the bloody hit indicator). I can see this game pulling a Lair - set a visual standard so high they spent all their time and energy focusing on the graphics and not enough on gameplay.

Too many games are doing FPS better - Resistance, COD4, Brothers in Arms to name a few. It's a pre-alpha, so it can get better.

It's a pre-alpha, so it can get better.

That doesn't make his comment any less true.

Also, whats wrong with power rangers?

If you watch the Gears 2 footage, and then watch this Killzone 2 footage, Killzone 2 looks far less exciting.musicalmac

i think they both look pretty great... the gears level looked a bit more action packed, yes.. but both look pretty exciting to me...

trailer is awesome

but i highly doubt the actual game will even come close to that

[QUOTE="Kahuna_1"]Only thing I noticed was the bullet holes on the rocks disappearing...but when playing you cannot notice something so insignificant...I just hope it does not suck hard like Killzone did.comptonst

Well the only thing that killed Killzone was the bad framerates and stuff like that which has seemed to be fixed in the new one so it is shaping up to be a killer sequel.

And the lackluster gameplay...and the glitches...

It looks to have some of the worst visuals this gen IMOkostmpekir

i'm willing to donate a few bucks so you can buy some proper eyes. that's the kind of guy i am :)

That looked pretty boring to me.Holden1985

I wouldn't go so far as saying boring, but I'll give it a "shaping up well". Yeah, it looks slick. Yeah, it looks like it will be a solid CoD-type shooter, and probably fun. But I have yet to see what is so completely mind-blowing about it. Maybe if you've been living under a rock and haven't played a good FPS in the last 5 years.

It looks like what I'd expect from a FPS in 2009, nothing more (so far, still a long way to go).

[QUOTE="Cedmln"]

[QUOTE="MojondeVACA"][QUOTE="Cedmln"]Well. Looks like lemmings can't complain about the textures anymore.MojondeVACA

Uh compared to the top lastest FPS games out there no they are not and they will improve by the time the game is released.

LMFAO at all who are trying to brush this game off as not looking impressive. As in doing so, you are only making yourself out to look like fanboys in the last stages of denial. I do not care if KZ2 appeals to you in general or not, one must admit that the game is looking fantastic graphically for a console game.

In fact, I would even go as far as to say that there is not a currently released game on consoles that can compare graphically to this UNFINISHED game. But hey, at least I am being honest about it. All it takes is a pair of eyes and an honest, objective viewpoint. The latter being something that is sorely lacking here in SW.

It looks to have some of the worst visuals this gen IMO, i though next gen was about making games bigger and with more things around, not empty tiny levelskostmpekir

bland game? so whats mad world...black and white they both equally bland. i have nothing against mad world it looks intresting but your post is silly

This game is not even out yet.. and it already getting positive reviews who actually played the game so far:D

From GameSpy

"Thanks to some cutting-edge technological innovations, Killzone 2 is one of the best looking games we've seen this year, and we don't just mean on the PlayStation 3. The lighting effects are particularly impressive, especially the sunlight. We found ourselves stopping just to admire the view from time to time when the light streamed through smoke or the dusty air. There's also just the right amount of motion blur which, when combined with Guerrilla's anti-aliasing techniques, give it a realistic look. Our only little visual qualm is with the design itself, which relies heavily on grays and, er, darker grays. A bit of color here and there wouldn't hurt, although we understand why the designers chose this drab palette. "

It's actually these seemingly insignificant sequences that really show what an impressive experience Killzone 2 could potentially be. The action is consistently presented from the first-person perspective, and the surprisingly realistic character animations and environments make you feel like you're actually in Sev's shoes

We don't know if this preview (or the other ones hitting the internet in the coming days) is going to kick start the same hype machine that submarined the first Killzone, but this actually one case in which a game can deliver on some hype. We're not about to say that Killzone 2 is the greatest thing since sliced bread, but it's certainly more impressive than its predecessor and looks to be one of the best PlayStation 3 titles we've seen to date. Of course, we still know next to nothing about the game's multiplayer or co-op offerings, although we were told that there will be a "significant" multiplayer component.

Yeh, this game looks pretty immense. Loving the battlefield feeling where there is just carzy junk going on around you :P

Can't believe this game is still pre-alpha :|

[QUOTE="BioShockOwnz"]Yeah, Killzone 2 is one sexy mutha, watch your mouth! Seriously, LBP and KZ2 makes my temperature rise.AC-360

Even though killzone 2 does look awesome but I think Resistance 2 will be alot better online. Those screens are just screens, I bet on july 13th, Insomniac is going to blow us away with some crazy single player gameplay, I can already see it. I still remember watching the firs resistance in that first level, man that was awesome for a launch title, so im thinking Insomniac will take it up a notch when they show the single player in action on july 13th. None the less though, killzone 2 does look beautiful.

If only consoles had sufficient RAM to run higher resolution textures, games like killzone would that much more awesome. What the hell were sony and micrsoft thinking when they put 256mb and 512mb of ram in there consoles??? They should of done their research. Cause the only thing I see wrong with games are high resolution textures and higher resolutions in general.Killfox

i believe it's thanx to Cliffy that the 360 has 512.... they wanted to put in less....

Well I like gears of war from epic but I thought unreal tournament wasnt all that good. I think its more suited on a pc. Unreal tournament is only fun playing online but ill be honest, I played it for a week and got tired of it and went back to call of duty 4. Its been just sitting in my drawer collecting dust even with all the cool mods u can download for it, still doesnt change the fact that it wasnt my type of game. I think pc gamers will like it though and maybe some 360 owners. I still think gears of war was a better game then unreal tournament 3. Just my opinion. I just wish epic would stop making all the characters muscle heads and maybe go for a realistic looking character, especially using the unreal engine 3.5

One thing that really pisses me off is how when you start shooting the enemy, they would react nothing to the bullets and would only pull those crazy death animations when they actually die.Khoaki

you must mean gears of war because they just run at you while you shoot no reactions at all just when they die then comes the animation.

also its pre-alpha....there is time for much to be added still so be patient

I really have nothing against their games per say but its what the devs from epic have actually said. Like them dissing PC gaming and then retracting there statements like a few days later. Stuff like that. Im also sick of their engine. I love it for games like gears and gears2 because I think it suits that kind of game well but all these other developers using the engine. Its like all I see is games using the UE3. UT3 I hate to say is crap compared to what it used to be. It was consolized and it mad it terrible. It did not feel like an UT game and it felt slow as hell.

[QUOTE="Pariah_001"]

[QUOTE="Blackbond"]February 2009 should be interesting. But as of now I'm still not impressed. Once you've seen Crysis visually no other game especially a FPS is gonna impress you just be the looks department.LockeAteid

I think that all depends on whether or not you prefer an industrial setting or a jungle setting. The CryEngine certainly made Crysis look beautiful. But greenery is the game's only visual hat-trick.

While I disagree that Crysis's flora is it only 'hat-trick', I think that's only because it a victim of it's own setting. A remote almost entirely isolated jungle island doesn't really offer a great variation of landscape.

u cant say that pariah cuz the level inside the alien ship looks amazing...the FPS was really smooth and i was able to crank the settings to high. i was tickled with joy. 0 gravity was cool to
