I knew this was going to happen, the game just didn't give me a good feeling from the get go, most likely due to the fact that TEAM SILENT isn't doing it, but some silly US dev team, who made buffy the vampire slayer. Honestly what was the purpose of making the main character a marine? it defeats the purpose of being scared or unskilled to survive the horror, like 2 and 3 achieved. Adding the over the shoulder camera, dodge mechanic for this game was plain stupid, yet another horror title goes action. If this ends up bad by the majority of sites, i see Team Silent being forced to do the next one. If their is one.

and whats worse, the game isn't SCARY AT ALL....

thoughts?

not too happy about the whole emotional-ties epic has added, seems forced, because most epic stories seem to involve a lot of emotions/love (epic knows they needed a better story and with MGS4 setting the standards), it works for MGS games and movies, but for a game like gears, and a character like dom, it just doesn't sound right, but who knows. I just find dom more of that relaxed guy, atleast from the first game.

mixed review, really...more negative. Honestly, IMO..seem abit too picky. Its a sequal and Gears has gameplay nailed, good enough for me aslong as its set in different enviroments and more guns are added, its a buy. Sadely some of the first games hiccups made it back in gears 2.

The absolute insult of even mentioning Blurzone 2 in the same sentence with the Great one :)

On topic, Halo 3

SecretPolice

you know, real life blurs, right?

People really need to get a 1080p set....you wouldn't be saying Halo 3 looks bad.

On my Sony x-series, the game barely has noticable jaggies and looks very detailed.

what hype? and yeah, you just decribed what a SEQUAL should be.

IMO, motorstorm is plain fun and addictive. 2 looks even more fun. pretty simple.

again, another doesn't listen, the 2007/2009 excuse doesn't work. the 360 was out in 05, it's been in devs hand for almost the same ammount of time, the k2 trailer wasn't even real and the 360 hardware is much more friendlier to work with, giving bungie an upper hand and the fact that the GPU is somewhat more advance.

it equals out. with minor differences. that shows with Halo 3 having what looks to be superior textures, etc. Halo 3 looks great.

Devs can and do start working on there games before they have a Dev Kit. Just because the PS3 didn't launch when it was originally intended to doesnt mean all game development stopped as well. It Also doesn't matter how hard or friendly the hardware is both guerrilla and bungie have access to the programmers and members who helped create the hardware.

Im not arguing if one is better than the other. but your reasoning on why its fair to compare them doesn't hold much weight, especiialy since we are all aware that Killzone 2 has been in development far longer than 2 years.

but so has Halo 3. What you said apply's to Halo 3 aswell, in 05, there was NO killzone 2, just a cgi trailer, nothing had started. Halo 3 started right after the 2nd one. how long is that? lol

This thread is ridiculously unnecessary. Killzone 2 looks much better than Halo 3 (graphically) for one reason: It's coming out in 2009, whereas Halo 3 was a 2007 game. You'd be better off comparing Resistance 2 to Gears 2, since they are coming out at the same time period.

err, so?

didn't you read what i stated in the topic? the 360 hardware was out before the PS3's while both are pretty much equal (with the 360 have a slighter GPU advantage) and bungie having more than 2 years (plus the early kits) to work with, its pretty fair to compare. Same goes with Killzone 2. lol

Development for each game probably started around the same time since both guerrilla and bungie work closely with their respective console manufacturer, meaning they would have started development before there systems were released (both systems were originally slated to launch in the same year). Killzone even had a launch trailer before the PS3 was available. The big difference between them though is one was released in 2007 while the other not until 2009.
