Killzone 2

[Joey]

You should have thrown a spelling please in there as well

I was willing to forgive.

Holy wow.

The detail on that guy's hand wows me the most. You can even see the folds of his thumb. That kind of detail is better than what I've seen out of anything.

9.5 for graphics kind of bugs me.... Not that it matters but I mean what does GG have to do for a 10. I know he explained himself and 9.5 isn't a bad score at all but if there's one area that KZ2 outperforms is in the graphics department.

This was posted a little ways back in the thread...But what from I can tell reviews said it wasent as good looking as the e3 trailer...But still fucking great.

It's just funny to see it get docked .5 in the graphics department when it's clearly doing stuff no other game has yet. I'll comment on this further once I have beaten the game.

Wait you have the game?

Any framerate issues? They include that under the general title of "graphics."

I wish.


Anyone know if you can be in two different clans?

Other than when a segment is loading there are no frame rate issues. If you've played the demo or seen any videos you probably know what I'm referring too, but it loads on the fly and since there is no install it hitches for a second or two when it loads. I personally wouldn't count that as a frame rate issue.

Do you mean "when you have beaten the game" or when you have "gotten the game"?

*looks at calendar*

 

[user friendly]

It could mean either. If you want to be super technical, "once I get and finish the game."


I want to wait to comment until after I beat the game.

Here's the deal. Killzone 2 is the best looking game on CONSOLES. But, you just can't act like Crysis doesn't exists when rating console games, and facts is facts. Crysis is the best looking game to come out.

9.5 indicates that it's incredible, but not the best, and it's not.

There are things that Killzone 2 does that Crysis doesn't. I'm not trying to argue though, we all know Crysis is superior in pretty much every aspect but we all know why.

I'm really not sure what to make of that.

I've played both, and that's just not true. Crysis is a visual marvel.

That said, Killzone 2 could very easily be a better game, which is far more important than just being the best looking game.

I can already tell you one thing, Killzone 2's multiplayer is almost guaranteed to be 100% better than Crysis's MP. Hell, it might even be on par with TF2. It's got the potential.

But it's a non-argument bro, speaking strictly about visuals, Crysis is superior. Just trust me on this one.

I'm only referring to one thing and one thing only. The blur tech or how it's done in KZ2 does (at times) look better than the blur in Crysis. I don't know how GG did it but you can see it (in direct screen grabs). Lighting is debatable as well. I do agree though, even though I haven't played Crysis at full, it's obvious that it does pretty much everything better than KZ2 or any other game when speaking of visuals, no question.

It's crazy how KZ2 can look almost CG'ish in certain instances though and the amount of unseen (seen only in screen shots like I posted earlier) detail and polish is just as crazy.

What? It's not.

Compared to what, Crysis? If so, since when was it cool to compare PC graphics to console graphics? I think if were comparing graphics, it should be what's on that console or maybe even the 360. It's like comparing Wii to PS360, goes against logic. It's the best the PS3 has seen and that's really what it should be compared to. I guess you could debate that Uncharted looks better.

Lets say Crysis is a 10, wouldnt KZ2 be a 9.8?

i remember seeing loads of cool lookong games getying 9.5s, yet they're nowhere near KZ2.

We're comparing games dude, not platforms.

Since when have any of you given two shits about what number a reviewer attaches to something?

People who own one console need higher reviews to justify their purchases to themselves.

Were comparing graphics, which really relies on the platform. Partly on the developer as well but there only so much a developer can do with the hardware.

I gotta go.

I really hope you're not talking about moi.

So we can't compare Gears of War 2 and Killzone 2?

Personally, I think reviewers should just get rid of scores, and just write better reviews. You can tell me a lot more about a game with text than you can with a number.
