Killzone 2 E3 2007 trailer |
Ó
Killzone 2 has often been compared budget-wise to a Hollywood movie, and the trailer itself lends a lot of weight to the comparison with some gorgeous graphics and fluid animation. The voice acting is also pretty good, and the little bits of gameplay footage suggest one hell of an action-packed experience.
Well, see it for yourself. You can check out Killzone 2's E3 2007 trailer below. Killzone 2 for the Sony PlayStation 3 video game console is currently slated for release next year.

that was *****kkin gangsta !!!!
Killzone looks WAYyyyyyyyy better than Halo 1,2,3 all together! I can see that all that programming in the background is only possible with the Cell Processor because all those background events have its own core to control it beautifully.
this game looks like the best game ive ever seen
still drooling!
that's was f00kin amazing!
JUST LOOOK AT THE LIGHTING THIS IS CRAZY !!!!! AWSOME BAD SHIZZLE TO THE BONE AND 5 MIL TIMES BETTER THAN WHAT IVE SEEN ON GAYLO
They forgot to put a warning for xbots and Mister Common Sense in this video. Xbots are so stupid they can't watch videos running on the cell proccesor. Xbots might be radiated that their Xbox 360s get red doomed.
its not the texture resolution or mapping,its this Incredible artisitic style and atmosphere
the texture are less detailed perhaps than Crysis...but the incredible art style,special effects from the lighting to sparkles....the atmosphere....makes this game superior than Crysis and maybe even the rest of the competition [assuming there is competition]
Guerrila did it.....the trailer exceed the E3 2005 trailer not by texture quality or detail but the atmosphere and special effects....its superior than the E3 2005 trailer
no more shiny graphics and cheap bloom effects everywhere.....everything looks solid real
it seems Sony have done it....by aquiring Guerilla games and turning it to 1st party with unlimited funding and a staff of more than 135 members.....KIllzone 2 is the best looking Console FPS yet....and exceeds the PC crysis in many aspects
watch it in Hi-def....and compare this to microsofts re-hash and feeble effort Halo3 [A.K.A:Halo 2 vista]....its in a different league
finally.....the PS3 has shown it definite superiority,a single character model of Killzone 2 has more Polygons than the entire screen of Killzone one...you can read this at IGN interview
this intense number of Polygons and geography can only be utilized through the CELL and RSX co-working making it impossible on the 360
i cannot wait for them to announce the multi-player details....
Beutifull indeed......i never thought it was possible
but it did
Hey wheres my thanks ya know I am Jonathan Waters the guy who sent this in!
F u jony waters........... and big thnx to the guys who sent this in !!!!!!! whover it is ..............
DAMN DAMN DAMN
So bloody sweet, I really love how the blood efects (when the player is shooting at the enemy's head) looks. *****!
this game is great, but also will be Halo 3. Damn I love competition between consoles, great games comming up.
have i forgot to mention that the devs for this game said that this trailer is from the PRE-ALPHA????
and i mean PRE PRE-ALPHA....so theres still the beta and then the final build.....
so wait because the textures are going to be way better than this
Its times like this that I'm glad I have a ps3 on hold for a game like this. This game looks fantastic and moves very well. I think this game may just take the lead for best first person shooter if it can be just as impressive on the multiplayer side. Well done, too bad it doesnt come out till next year though.
Looks Sick!
I did send this in you idiot
killzone looks amazing, this is a real glimpse of what the ps3 can really do and to think this is only a pre pre alpha, imagine what this game will look like when its complete
wow, the ingame play looks f**King insane!
than Halo1,2,3 and gears of war!
Devleoper statement states :
Hey folks.
I%u2019m a little busy at the moment, but I have to say something!
First of all. WHAT DID I SAY? Did I lied? Am I a jackass, because I could not say anything about KILLZONE %u201C2%u2033? I could not. It IS one of our most important games, in the history of SONY Computer Entertainment. And I hope you like it!
And I am not finished yet:
- Don%u2019t forget one thing: This game is PRE-pre-alpha! So, not PRE-Alpha, PRE-PRE! So, please don%u2019t start some %u201CHey, can you see that texture poppin%u2019 up! PLEASE, stop it, ok?
There will be much more details, effects and so on. Give us some time.
- Second: Half of the animations are still NOT in the game so, it will look MUCH MUCH better in the final game. Yes, we said it: The animations are matching the target render. Maybe it looks even better in the final game.
- third: Is there already a video out? I get no info here, because the conference is killing us (with joy). If so, enjoy it! If not, playstation storewill have it. You have to see it in HD to believe it.
And finally: mckmas8808, Bad_Boy, Busty, I said it, and we delivered!
So, wait for the conference for more info.
You saw NOTHING yet!
bye
(oh and, %u2026. did I say %u201CKILLZONEwillSH OCK%u201D)
Sorry, I could not resist
wow, f'ing amazing. Great use of lighting.
Amazing work done by the people over at Guerrila. Hope this game is a huge succes. This kind of game should not be used for consoe wars, it should be celebrated as yet another great leap forward in the evolution of gaming just like Gears of War and other games except halo which stole from every fps that came out years before it and tried to carry on as though it was revolutionary and original.

I just crapped my pants
OMG I think I just nutted on myself looking at this damn freaking awsome what U call a real next gen shooter on a next gen console. Ah to much to wait for now can't handle it cum overload !!!!!
"Guerrila did it.....the trailer exceed the E3 2005 trailer not by texture quality or detail but the atmosphere and special effects....its superior than the E3 2005 trailer"
Er no, it's inferior to the E3 2005 trailer, but atleast the devs have captured the look and feel of the 2005 trailer (which was the whole point in the first place until Sony turned it into a controversy).
"finally.....the PS3 has shown it definite superiority,a single character model of Killzone 2 has more Polygons than the entire screen of Killzone one...you can read this at IGN interview"
*Sigh* This IS next-gen, and there are numerous games already on the 360 and PS3 that have more polygons on a single model (person, car, object etc) than an entire scene in Killzone.
"this intense number of Polygons and geography can only be utilized through the CELL and RSX co-working making it impossible on the 360"
This game looks great, but it doesn't look any better than numerous other next-gen FPS titles. Equally, I'm not seeing anything in Killzone that is impossible on the 360, but as usually, certain gamers are obsessed with trying to 'prove' the PS3's superiority over the 360. If Gears of War was on the PS3 instead of the 360, gamers would have been saying how it is only possible on the PS3, perhaps even daring 360 gamers to 'name a better looking game then!'.
I just had an eyegasm!!
And this is PRE-Beta??? Amazing! This is the defining trailer of E3 07. While it's not as close as the CGI version we saw a few years back, it's still lightyears ahead of anything I've seen from Microsoft's presentation lastnight.
My only concern, however, is that the only thing that could possibly kill Killzone 2 is not graphics, sound, or physics, but the gameplay aspect. Hopefully they can create a killer single player campaign and a true Halo-slaying multiplayer environment on the PSN.
you know the whole pitch of HD videos making you feel like your right there, with sports especially, i can not wait to play this on my tv
Even if you don't like it, atleast be mature enough to give credit where it's due.
No FPS had great physics, great AI, land and air vehicles (with great handling), seamlessly intergrated indoor and outdoor environments ALL IN ONE GAME. Not even on the PC in Nov 2001. You could find combinations of the list I provided, but not all. So yes, Halo didn't pioneer these areas, but it was the first to do them all and do them all well. A special mention goes to it's AI which was more advanced than the AI in PC games at the time (including Half-life).
Until Halo came along, gamers (especially PC gamers) tended to look down at console FPSs, even GoldenEye on the N64 which, a game which was loved by console gamers but a control scheme which was like a cross between a FPS and Time Crisis. Halo defined the control scheme for console FPSs, and it's the model other console FPSs follow (unlike the one in Goldeneye).
So imo, Halo's place in gaming is well deserved. Without Halo, you wouldn't be looking forward to Killzone, since that game came about as the devs answer to Halo on the PS2, and now here we are looking at their work on the PS3 (and looking excellent).
That was AMAZING! Was it me or did the in game graphics look alot better while they were in motion then while it was a cut scene?
This is what I got my PS3 for. If they can improve on this, then holy cow!
However, it doesn't look as good as the the E3 demo from last year. BUt then that was a complete con. Supposedly running on a PC that could power the world at 2fps and then sped up.
But it'll be sooooo long before we can play :(
Serously, teh grafix is CG, not ingame. Killzone sux. POS3 will fail. Haloz 3 pwns Killzone. $ony lies!!!!1!! $500 wasted on failing stupid console and CGI gamez. Stupid idiots. Get XBOX n play good gamez.
You're just a pathetic 360 fanboy who will never admit to a game looking better on the PS3 because you're so blinded by brand loyalty. Sure it doesn't look exactly like the CGI trailer but honestly nothing this gen will match that, 360 included. But the trailer looked awesome nontheless. The lighting and physics were simply amazing.
Many opinions here are based upon seeing the trailer for the first time, but like you said, it's gameplay that's important.
(www.1up.com are down at time of writing, but once back up, check out their hands-on impressions with Killzone this week)
But i just saw the unreal tournament 3 trailer and it pretty much killed anything in this trailer. This still looks really nice but i think Epic has the best looking game so far, granted this is pre beta so killzone 2 still has time to kill ut3.
Are you a PS3 fanboy posting this just so that you can follow it up with "OMG, it's realtime you idiotl, and it proves the graphics must be really awesome if you Xbots think it's all CG lol!....etc".
Nah, it can't be that, surely not. ;)
...but I do agree that it's every bit as impressive as Killzone, if not more so.
never say the word "Unbiased" to anyone....everyone is biased to a certain degree....and smart people know how to hide it thats all...
and if all the things by some miracle became unbiased....One thing in this world will remain Biased
that is [1up.com]....there is nothing more biased and hateful to the PS3 than 1up
heck even Gamespot...a well known MS-advertizing site is smarter than 1up...they know how to advertize to the 360 in a smarter "Biased" way..
Unbiased...are you kiddin???? are you just kiddin.....Both 1up and gamespot [not to mention others] are in MS pocket
plz......all people need is not to read anothers fool opinion
all they need is to download the HI-def trailer and see the Incredible goodness with their own eyes
I think your both xbots.
now GamerFeed...are you a Microsoft employee been paid to reply to every good PS3 news ??
Nah,it cant be........its not like you reply to every post
Oooops...you actualy do ;)
And you're just pathetic it seems. Atleast, you come across that way if you think my post make's me a 360 fanboy (which is interesting as I don't even own any next-gen consoles, including a Wii). I have no desire to blindly support Sony, MS or Nintendo, I'm just interested in games, and in future, will buy one or more consoles, therefore I will say things as I see it.
Killzone looks as I expected, superb next-gen graphics but nothing beyond what other future games will be offering. Why must I pretend it's the best and beyond other consoles? Because you want me too?
Look, just because YOU disagree doesn't somehow make you right and gamers like myself wrong. So if you disagree, that's fine, but try offering a responce to the points I made instead of offering insults. That's the mature way to participate in a discussion. :|
Is you have to wait untill sometime in 2008 for it...it'd be nice if it was like jan or feb....but you know it's going to be mid-late 2008.
It would have been worth it if it looked like the trailer, but not for something that looks as good as a game that will have been out for 2 years.
It still looks good....not as good as the E3 2k5 trailer, and no better then gears...but still that is good.
Some little effects are nicfe, like the pillars crumbling apart....question is if it's just for aesthetics or will it function within gameplay (Ie, can you completely destroy pillars)
I also understand it's pre-alpha...but again they've had 2 years of dev and only 6-8 months more to go, so it's not going to change that drastically...
Very beatiful ....
I believe this :
GOW < KILLZONE < UT07
=)
I love this graphics ... Shadows ,lighting PERFECT !
"I think your both xbots."
Says the guy with the name PS3Rider. R-i-g-h-t.
"now GamerFeed...are you a Microsoft employee been paid to reply to every good PS3 news ??"
I see, perhaps I missed it, but could you point out where I'm being negative towards Killzone? I have nothing but compliments for Killzone, but at the same time, I'm not going to keep quiet when (as usual) gamers make wild invalid claims and try to use the game as a weapon against another console or game. I prefer to keep things in perspective instead of overhyping things as fanboys (always) do. sorry if that offends you (and if it does, perhaps you should look at yourself for the reasons why).
That was SOOOOO worth losing my much needed sleep staying up for it. I was so worried that Sony overdid it on the e3 '05 trailer but they surpasses my expectations by far.
When will be a real ingame? when it looks like Kameo? anyway is stupid to say isn't ingame but oh well.. what makes you sleep at night...
The answer is no!
The impressions of a carefully orchestrated trailer is NOT the same as the impressions of a game, and it's rather foolish to think the two are the same.
I would no more judge Killzone as a GAME upon that trailer than I would Halo 3 upon it's trailers, regardless of snippets of gameplay cut together.
So please, 1UP have a far better idea of Killzone as a game being they've sat down and watched a WHOLE LEVEL being played.
So do explain why our opinions based upon a short trailer means more than the opinions of those who've watched the game being played for an hour or so (or however long it took to play the demo).
Looks frikkin amazing, but one good game does not a system sell.
If the PS3 were $399, I would buy it just for this game. But at $599, and no big library of good games, there's not a chance in hell I'd pay $600 for one game.
Just to be clear, I don't own ANY of the new systems (I'm an avid PC gamer). But with the price drop on the 360 Elites, HDMI with 120gb hard drive (and they actually provide the cables), and a HUGE library of killer games (GTA4 exclusive content too), I'd be stupid to invest my money elsewhere.
Now granted, I'm not buying a 360 till they fix the Red Ring 'O Death *****, and I truly believe the PS3 to be a killer machine, but Sony should have made this a gaming machine, not a way to sell Blu-Ray. I believe the PS3 would run circles around the competition if it was aggressively priced. But sadly, Sony's head is way too big for that...
...Yes you're right, everyone is biased to some degree and therefore unbiased wasn't the right word to use, 'balanced' perhaps would have been a better word to use, refecting the fact that they focussed on the pros and cons of the demo, instead of talking about the great things only (as some have) or how it doesn't compare to E3 2005 (like some others).
BTW, perhaps you could try replying without insults next time. It's not necessarily.
Gamerfeed PwnED..
XD
yeah perhaps on the unbiased thing, but he admits it unlike some people around here, and that raises my opinion of him a lot. so respect to you gamerfeed. i think killzone looks a little better than you said, but hey thats my opinion, but i like the way you talk, you make some good points.
yeah it looks great, best ive seen on the ps3 so far
The xbot norbs must be scared now. Finally the PS3 is showing some of its power. When this game has been polished some more it will be unbelievable and beat the ***** out of anything on the gay60 - and only a year in, things will only get better on PS3 now.
i was impressed the way they started this trailor - very similar, it makes it easier to compare.
Honestly, i was actually expectin it to be worse.
Forget the graphics now plz guerilla, jus make this game EPIC and memorable like HL1
And it seems like you are XBOX type of gamer, judging from your comment because this is not the only good PS3 game but I guess you only like FPS gmaes. You must if you're saying that because Heavenly Sword and Lair are incredible games.
Gears was in production for over 4 years, so stop it shatterdome, and I am a big epic and gears of war fan and I definitey feel killzone is a better looking feeling game although it is base on te trailer. Gameplay coud change all that.
this is not gameplay its just another CGI video!! but only the 360 could reach this levil of graphices
This is yet another attempt by sony to get us to buy that blu-ray player! Its so obviously only possible on the xbox360 with its superior power.
Get xbox360 now! 66% 1st year hardware success rate!
stop lying xbox is almost as powerful not more powerful
Halo only became popular because it was one of the first FPS available for a mainstream console that people could actually enjoy without owning a high end pc. Although I dont appreciate you "Mature comment" My comments are always mature and respectful. That being said, I will agree with you in that Halo helped cement FPS gaming on the console. But as far as FPS goes, it is an above average shooter, nothing more. Ask any person that has payed fps gamse since before halo.
Oh I'm not saying this is the ONLY good game, but lets be real. The entire media and all the game sites agree...even SONY agrees, there is only a handful of killer titles, and that will not sell a $600 game console...or even $500 game console.
And if you look at the Elite...HDMI with cables included and a 120gb hard drive for over $100 less than the highest end PS3. I could care less about Blu-Ray, so that argument is irrelevant. I'm looking at the gaming aspects.
I imagine it looking better, what else can we imagine
And the 360 and PS3 fanboi's come out in groves. This game looks fantastic, and the action looks intense.
Ultimately, they are both within range of each other when it comes to raw power...both having their advantages and disadvantages. It all comes down to games.
Huge names like Konami that have for years had exclusive titles for Sony systems, are not impressed with the sales or the price drop of the PS3. See this article: http://www.reuters.com/article/technologyNews/idUSN0924355620070710?pageNumber=1
The 360 has an install base of over 5.6 million so far with over 10 million LIVE subscribers. Add to that there are an average of 5.6 games per 360 compared with 0.6 games per PS3. Wow...kinda lets you know who is buying it...people who want a cheap Blu-Ray player.
The Wii is at 2.5 million.
The PS3 is at 1.3 million.
The kicker her is that the sales of the PS3 have all but stopped. They made the majority of their worldwide numbers at launch. Even the GBA outsold the PS3 last month...that's just sad.
So ultimately, the PS3 is an awesome console with a handfull of awesome games at a not-so-awesome price.
It's not the console itself that sucks...it's the price.
WHAt the F are those HUGE looking Robot People with the giant guns, they LOOKS SO SCARY, and whats with the lightining, i cant wait til I steal one of their guns
It's OK I'll be playing Uncharted this holiday season. That game looks better than any game on your system, as does killzone and probably MGS4.
wtf Just saw the new trailer from e3 sony conference..all ingame pretty good for a pre pre alpha. Maybe eventually when more details are revealed,i'll buy a PS3 just to play KZ + MGS4.
Sony doesn't force you to buy all your peripherals from them. I have 160GB hard drive on my PS3. That's because I can put any hard drive I want in there without voiding the warranty. Also I can transfer my saves to any kind of flash media card I want and take it with me,l and don't have to by a Sony memory card like you do with the 360, Also I can use any blue tooth headset I want and my system comes with a rechargeable controller I don't have to go out and buy a rechargeable kit for my wireless controller. I have Wifi and PSP interconnectivi ty. If I want to watch videos, view photos or listen to music on my PS3 I don't have to stream it or buy it from Sony I can just put it straight to the hard drive and store it there. Not to mention that I can browse the web on my TV with it. watch you tube videos right on my TV if I feel so inclined. Plus the Blu-Ray player that you say you don't care for. And las t but not least it can upscale my existing DVD collection to 1080p. Add to that all the great games that are on the way plus the already existing games like Resistance, Motorstorm and the multiplatform games and I think it more than justifies the price. I can say this because I own both consoles and love my 360 but my PS3 just offers a lot more, and doesn't have me fearing the red ring of Death every time I turn it on.
"And if you look at the Elite...HDMI with cables included and a 120gb hard drive for over $100 less than the highest end PS3. I could care less about Blu-Ray, so that argument is irrelevant. I'm looking at the gaming aspects. "
how nice...
comparing the elite to the 80GB ps3 which is not available and ships with a game
you compare it with our 60GB model.....which is cheaper than the elite,since you have to pay 50$ for xbl
Elite 480$+50$+530$
PS3 500$ no online fee needed
result+PS3 cheaper
xbox360 is more powerfull and my house is alot warmer with it!
You have no idea what you're talking about. SOny sales just shot up due to the price cut and prior to that they were still selling more than the 360 in Japan and Australia.
here erad this http://ps3.qj.net/US-36-100-PS3-price-cut-boosts-Amazon-PS3-sales-up-2800-/pg/49/aid/97122

"Halo only became popular because it was one of the first FPS available for a mainstream console that people could actually enjoy without owning a high end pc."
The first high quality console FPS that console gamers could enjoy. That's the difference Vsions. If Halo sucked, then it would not have reached the status that it has. Just being a fps on a console is not enough (look at Killzone on the PS2).
""Mature comment" My comments are always mature and respectful."
Fair enough (perhaps like my use of the word 'unbiased' before, mature wasn't quite the right choice), however my issue was with your treatment of Halo as being nothing more than a game which stole from other fps (which by definition means 99% of what we see in games today has been 'stolen' from other games) and that it pretended to be something it wasn't (not sure how a game can do that, but anyway...).
"That being said, I will agree with you in that Halo helped cement FPS gaming on the console."
Good to see. :)
"But as far as FPS goes, it is an above average shooter, nothing more. Ask any person that has payed fps gamse since before halo."
But that's the point, "since" Halo. Like I said, at the time, no FPS was offering all that Halo was offering. I've been a PC gamer since the end of the 80s, and as FPSs grew in popularity thanks to iD, I remember PC gamers hoping to see vehicles in new FPSs, but each time they would be disappointed, and if there were vehicles, it would be in a specific level with limited control for a limited period (like the tank in Golden Eye). Also, FPS levels were typical either indoors or outdoors, and the AI was usually poor, with the online component making up for the lack of decent AI. Halo changed that.
Of course, since Halo first appeared in 2001, FPSs have improved greatly, but this is true for all games/genres. So I'm not here saying Halo1/2 are the greatest FPSs ever created, but I would say they were easily the best console FPSs last gen (hence deserve their success), with Halo 2 having a superb online component which made it one of the best, if not the best, online console gaming experiences last gen.
I agree the game looks awesome, I haven't seen any good trailers of halo 3 so I can't say it looks better but yes the game looks amazing.
"yeah perhaps on the unbiased thing, but he admits it unlike some people around here"
That's right, if I'm wrong, then I'm wrong and I'm not afraid to admit it, hence I was wrong to say unbiased.
I just finished reading the review, and it was extremely biased. While I can't put words in their mouths regarding their personal gameplay experience, they were slamming the graphics:
"...looks about as good as any other console shooter."
'About' as good??? Meanwhile, every other gaming site is up in arms about how amazing the game is looking so far.
"payed fps gamse since before halo"
I didn't notice the before. In that case you're completely wrong. As I 've said, I've been playing PC games and hence PC FPSs since the beginning, and no FPS on the PC offered everything I listed for Halo at the time of release. That's what made Halo the success it was, it wasn't that it did any one thing that was new, but that it brought ALL those things I listed together into one seamless world, and THAT was new to gaming, and hence offered a new gaming experience for FPS fans, even for long time PC gamers like myself.
"...looks about as good as any other console shooter."
And it does, and they're including Gears of War and UT3 in that comment. What more do you want?
Remember, they are talking about the GAMEPLAY graphics here, not the realtime cinematics which dominates the beginning of that trailer.
"'About' as good??? Meanwhile, every other gaming site is up in arms about how amazing the game is looking so far."
Every other site? From what I'm seeing, many feel it's on par with games like GeOW, a few note areas in the graphics which they feel falls short of GeOW, some are saying it's on par with anything they've seen on the PS3, some are saying it's the best thing they've seen on the PS3 so far etc.
The views are varied, so 1UP are not isolated Joker, and they do say it looks great btw.
When the 1st one sucked badly and allegdly was gonna be a Halo killer... If sony relies too much on this game then they're screwed...
Mister Common Sense, I want you B!ch come down here.
Good job passer_by, you slipped up with this little nugget:
"you compare it with our 60GB model.....which is cheaper than the elite,since you have to pay 50$ for xbl"
You are obviously a Sony shrill, which this thread is full of, because you refered to the PS3 as "our."
And by the way, every website out there has rated the PS3 online experience as paling in comparison to LIVE...as if it was an afterthought. And how many subscribers do "you" have?
Your right, I should have compared it to the PS3 that is already out. 360 has double the hard drive capacity for only $30 more. The new PS3 charges $100 for only a 20gb bump. That is a deal!
Of course, all that HD space will be nice for the exclusive GTA4 downloadable content the 360's getting.
Right, the xbox 360 degrees down the toilet is so powerful and so warm that perhaps it fried your brain as well...lol
face it, the crapbox suxs bigtime
Unreal Tournament 3 (also known as UT2007) will be released on 360 this November. You fail.
That story is about Amazon, not international numbers. Also, shooting up 2800% from nothing means nothing. Also, the only reason they shot up that much is because Amazon slashed the price before the announcement and people swarmed to get it because they thought it was a limited time price or a mess up and wanted to take advantage of it.
MGS4 is still exclusive...for now...it's Konami's president saying he is not pleased with the way Sony is doing things that don't bode well. They probably already had an exclusive agreement with this title, but you can bet that won't be the case in the future.
And yes, things are bright for MS, as they have more next gen consoles on the market than both Wii and PS3 combined. Plus 4 times as many games.
Hey D-OverMind you truly are a dumb piece of S.H.I.T just like any other Xbot.
Good reply. Except that it wasn't. I'm just throwing out the hard numbers and facts here. And you reply with nothing of any value except that I suck.
By the way...for those that think the PS3 is outselling the 360 in it's home country of Japan, you fail.
Latest sales numbers from Japan:
* Nintendo DS: 423K
* Nintendo Wii: 338K
* Sony PSP: 221K
* Sony PlayStation 2: 187K
* Microsoft Xbox 360: 155K
* Sony PlayStation 3: 81K
And for games:
* Pokémon Diamond (DS)
* Mario Party 8 (Wii)
* Spider-Man 3 (PS2)
* Pokémon Pearl (DS)
* Wii Play w/remote (Wii)
* Forza Motorsport 2 (Xbox 360)
* Guitar Hero II w/guitar (Xbox 360)
* Spider-Man 3 (Xbox 360)
* Command + Conquer 3: Tiberium Wars (Xbox 360)
* Guitar Hero II w/guitar (PS2)
4 games in the top ten in Japan for the 360...NONE for PS3.
I will hand it to the venerable PS2, as it is the only thing selling for Sony anymore. But they are about to drop support for it and the games have stopped. Where does that leave Sony? Trailing behind the competition. WAY behind the competition.
The game looks great but I was wondering if they have any plans to put this video for download at the Playstation Store. I wouldn't mind having this video on my PS3.
That made gears of war look out dated in some areas. I'm amazed & shocked at the sametime...... here I am thinking Killzone gameplay was'nt going to hold up to its E3 2005 CGI trailer. Hah ! was I wrong :)
Actually, Halo's control system was modeled on the Time Splitters controls, which only got it right by virtue of beng the first ps2-gen fps and hence have dual analogue as standard. Every console fps since has used it - just because its the most intuitive system for a dual-thmb stick controler.
I can understand some people stating that this game doesn't look as incredible Gears of War. I can also understand other people saying this looks better than Gears of War. It all has to do with your personal preference in graphical effects. For instance, some prefer high resolution textures to express a sense of realism in games, which is used in Gears of War. Others think a high polygon count and excellent lighting (as expressed in Killzone 2) expresses realistic fidelity in a better way.
Personally, I prefer the latter. Consequently so, I was excited by Bioshock. It's graphical styles are befitting to my tastes. However, I do believe Killzone 2 is, graphically, a cut above Gears of War (no offense intended, Gears is still a fantastic game I'd play any day) due to its excellent use of effects, like the smoke, fire, blood (all next-gen games seem to lack realistic blood, kudos to GG) and motion blur.
Most importantly, I think the deciding factor was the sheer extent of debris and level size in this game. According to the developers, this game utilizes over 2GBs of space per level. I don't doubt that in the least. When I watched this trailer for the first time.
Gears of War is superior in texture detail and avid use of bump mapping. It did have have motion blur, but I think that effect is a far better medium of expression in an FPS than in a third person shooter. Aside from the effects, my opinion on this game is based, again, on my preferences.
Still, this game is absolutely an amazing achievement. I still
got that sense of watching a CGI trailer, and I agree that this trailer was a faithful representation of Sony's promise.
Considering Killzone 1 was a dissapointment and considering what they're investing in this game. I'm sure they'll avoid the problems of the original Killzone and deliver a truly amazing experience.
UT3 has been announced at E3 to be PC/PS3 exclusive till 2008 (not a long wait really...) but do please check your own facts before you shoot others down for being more up to date.
And its not Konami's president, but just the American CEO - he can say what he wants really, but it doesn't mean its going to happen. (Though I think that at the rate things are going a 360 port IS likely, but after the PS3 version has been out for quite a while - a la MGS2 Substance)
THEY NEED TO IMPROVE ON THE FIRE EFFECT AND LIGHTING. THE COLORS FEEL TOO SOLID

When i first saw pics of the in game part on Gamespot's E3 coverage, I thought it was just concept art - really well drawn concept art. This is pretty damned amazing and makes me glad I have a PS3. ^_^
Though I would like it to be confirmed independently to be realtime. (who knows, the guy on stage might have just been good at acting like he's playing the game) But I have faith in Sony and they're going to do a good job with this.
I thought the lighting and fire was phenomenal and on par with the CGI trailer. However the fire seems to be stylistically different, but on par, with Gears of War's fire. Further backing up my point. Right now I cannot tell if the fire in this trailer is dynamic or not. If it is, then it will surpass Gears' fire, in my opinion.
I don't think the 1st one was bad.. But it was nothing like Halo. I don't think it's right to compare them like that.
That was freakin sweet.
Hope Templar and the gang are still in it...
Actually...
I got a job over the summer at McDonalds. They only let me wash dishes cuz I'm not smart enuf to do nething else but after working for 13 hours a week for too weeks my mom felt sorry and decided to surprise me and buy me a PS3.
I'm so happy, the PS3 is 361 times cooler than my 5th broken 360 that'll be coming back in the mail from M$ any day now...
From here on out I'll be a changed boy forever! (don't worry, I'm still flaming gay)
ahh poor little xbots, the PS3 starts flexin its muscles a bit and u get scared. its not ingame, its not ingame!, ya u *****es keep tellin yourselfs that. this is only the begining, developers will get to grips with the hardware and then u will c what next gen is.
dats not funny^^^
That's hella funny, if that's not the real Common, then how'd he get his password? (Notice the poster clearly isn't Unregistered!) LOL!!!
it looks better when there moving (during gameplay) the cut scene looks okay..(wen there high in the sky) Better wen there close to the floor, n crazy during gameplay.
I can't believe it, WOW!
I know that the PS3 online is not ''paling'' because ive use and seen both PSN and XBL.
Its funny that 360 owners have to buy a new system to have 120gb, when all PS3 users need to do is unscrew our HardDrive n pop in a new 1... N yo STFU with da GTA 5hit (Microsoft payed for it) and I could care less about GTA IV when im looking at killzone 2, MGS4, Lair, Warhawk n all da other 5hit
And im no damn fanboy im just trying to show you what your talking bout
But Xman im sorry but your a real dumbas5 if you dont think thats gameplay
and the day after (demos r tomorrow),
Gears looks better.
it's ironic how you say we shouldn't go overboard praising this game then say something:
"there are numerous games already on the 360 and PS3 that have more polygons on a single model (person, car, object etc) than an entire scene in Killzone."
the level that was shown took 15 min to play through and was over 2gb.
Yeah they were nothing alike, but that's how Sony touted the first game. A "Halo killer". It was pretty far from it, to say the least. It didn't "suck badly", the singe player was pretty fun, it just didn't do something right that Halo did. I can't put my finger on it
This game does look good though, much better than the first
DUH! but people sign in other peoples name by mistake (like now)
its *****d up dat they would do that.
Not every games is ment to look da same (it SUPPOSED to be dark n gritty)... To me it looks better than gears and most game coming out (but dats just me)
Killzone 2 looks better than gears
(i can do it 2...)
"the level that was shown took 15 min to play through and was over 2gb."
That means nothing! The issue here was that one MODEL has more polygons than a SCENE in Killzone on the PS2. That has nothing to do with the size of the level, it's about the number of polygons in a character compared to Killzone on the PS2. So GamerFeed is RIGHT.
The characters in Killzone 2 look great, but they are no more detailed than the characters in GeOW and I expect UT3, and you can see the polygons on the edges (just like other next gen games).
So you could say exactly the same thing about the models in many next-gen games on both the 360 and PS3, which is the point GamerFeed was making.
Try READING next time before you respond.
But I believe it was Halo that refined it to what we take for granted today. It's not just about which actions are mapped to which buttons and analog sticks, but HOW it controls, including acceleration, dead zones, auto aim etc. Halo brought much needed refinement in many areas within the control scheme, hence is considered the de facto standard for console FPSs.
"Its funny that 360 owners have to buy a new system to have 120gb, when all PS3 users need to do is unscrew our HardDrive n pop in a new 1"
Yes, when it comes to the HDD, the PS3 is much more flexible than the 360, but the HDD in the 360 is upgradeable, hence 360 owners can also upgrade by purchasing the 120GB 360 HDD sold seperately. They don't _have_ to purchase a new console. I'm surprised you didn't know this Eclipze_.
Halo 3 single player looks better than Killzone 2 and Gears of War.
See WE CAN ALL DO IT.
sony never said it was the halo killer... hyped up fans said it would be... sony was just like "sure whatever just get the game"... anyways killzone wasn't that good because the studio that made the game never made a game for ps2 before... guerilla used to make pc games... read about it on wikipedia...
I was referring to Killzone on the PS2, NOT Killzone on the PS3. It was in responce to the following claim from The_Regulator, where he says "a single character model of Killzone 2 has more Polygons than the entire screen of Killzone one".
So, NOW do you understand what I was saying. ;)
halo looks better then the e3 05 killzone trailer!!
yes
I have yet to meet someone that could tell me how Gears of War is any better looking than most games of the same time. It is not the most beautiful game of all time like most xbox fanboys claim.
IMO the character models in GeoW are trash. Faces look like they were made out of clay, the body armor looks cool but as anyone with half a brain in game design realizes, they are made up of nothing but well lit textures. In terms of polys they are a huge help to keep em low.
The environments in Gears are nice but nothing out of this world that I haven't seen equally as good in other titles. Too many people hype gears for bein graphically superior to anything of its time when they are just blurring the lines between graphics and the fun they had when playing cuz it IS a fun game.
Personally, I think that Gears of War is graphically subpar and just utilizes the 360's sharp whites and dark blacks very well to hide the flaws from most people. Let's be honest, the rain stage is the only one that really makes you go "wow that looks cool". The stage just before in the truck looks like a freaking PS2 title.
It would be nice if you have a real source for those numbers. As it it looks like you're just pulling them out of your ass. Not even Microsoft agrees with your claims of Live subscription numbers.
I know you Sony fanboys have been wanting something to hold onto but i'm sorry this just doesn't do it. Just try to compair this to gears and it will fall short. Halo3 is all about smooth gameplay. I admit halo3's graphics are probably not better than killzone2 based on the videos but the gameplay will be much better and much more fun. Don't get your panties in a wad and wait until the game actually comes to start compairing. Just remember what happened last time...
t who knows it may be a decent game but defenitly not gonna kill halo lol. Halo is something that will probably triumph over all other games atleast multiplayer wise. Hopefully its single player campaign will be better this time around.
and also gears imo had better graphics than killzone idk it just looks better and also lol cant beleive you compared gears to a ps2 title your an idiot really look at some screenshots side by side of msot games out now and youl see that gears has some of the best graphics around. And you talking about hiding the flaws is bull***** who cares about hiding the so called flaws as long as the games graphics look rally good which in fact they do. Think about what you say first.
And stop saying xbots you sound like a wanna be gangster or something.
Heath, you and other 360 fanboys could take your advice, and not get your panties in a wad as well. How can you say when you haven't seen either the final finished product of Halo3 or Killzone2 that Halo3 will be better gameplay-wise? You are just as much of a fanboy, if not more especially because you came to an article about a PS3 exclusive game just to bash it.
Idiot.
thats odd. the one i saw on G4's live conference with Sony was alot longer than the trailer shown here.
Hi x,
I read your comment and I do agree, GeOw is over-hyped. I mean, I loved the game, and I did like the rain effect (especially as this was one thing I didn't like in Oblivion - it rained through the ceiling in Oblivion). I mean, sure GeOW looks great, but the environments are always small, and the graphics were marked by an overuse of textures.
I actually thought "The Darkness" was a better-looking game (I just finished playing it on my PS3 and have started Ninja Gaiden Sigma). This is not to say that I think "The Darkness" on 360 isn't as good. I haven't played the 360 version yet and am in no position to comment on the graphics for the 360 version. I might rent the 360 version and play it on my 360 just to compare though.
Regards,
MTK

"I have yet to meet someone that could tell me how Gears of War is any better looking than most games of the same time."
And I've yet to see a game which most consider to be graphically superb that doesn't have someone coming online saying how much they disagree.
Hence this is your opinion, one which is shared by a tiny minority of gamers. The majority of gamers, and virtually all reviews at the time, consider GeOW to be the best game graphically at the time of release.
