Killzone 2 is still the best looking PS3 game.

BadAssGamer:

"God of War III may be a great looking game as it is now, but it is still a long shot away from claiming the title of the best looking PS3 game.
From the screenshots released and the trailer it is clear that the environment details and quite a few character models are very low-resolution and are lacking in polish, which is acceptable considering it is an old build of the game."

100% agree.

God of War MAY end up looking better - but as it is now, Killzone 2 looks much better.

Personally I think Uncharted 2 will take the graphics crown before GoW3 releases.

doctorstrange6308d ago

flower looks the best have you seen the grass its brilliant

JokesOnYou6308d ago (Edited 6308d ago )

I just thought Kratos was badass in the vid and the cinematic action in the trailer was awesome. Oh I forgot on n4g some will swear every new exclusive is going to be the "best looking game ever".

JOY

jammy_706308d ago

thats just stupid, its not like its coming out tmoro, got over a year yet! and it hasnt reallt been played
killzone 2, then uncharted, then GOD3 nxt year, with gran trismo somewhere in there.... gears 3???..... behind killzone 2 :P:P

"Oh I forgot on n4g some will swear every new exclusive is going to be the "best looking game ever"."

Well.. what you've said is a fact. You don't need to be a fanboy to know that.

xwabbit6308d ago

People have to remember that GOW 3 might not look like kz 2 because it has a lot of stuff running at the same time, more than kz 2 has and that's saying a lot.

Agent VX6308d ago (Edited 6308d ago )

Consoles are already showing their age. A couple year old game named Crysis on the PC is still heads better graphically than Killzone 2. GOW 3 and Uncharted 2 will not make a big leap graphically either.

King of Graphics still and will always go to a PC. Learn to live with that.

But from what I have seen from GOW 3, I think KZ2 looks better, and easily better than Uncharted 2.

trancefreak6308d ago

VX Amazing how all those games you mentioned were ps3 titles.
Nothing matches crysis on pc either so your logic fails where as Ps3 actually has exclusives that look better than new high profile games on the pc computer.

You and your trolling fails today.

Helghast Slayer6308d ago

Rightfully agree. I have played the demo almost 30+ times. Only another ps3 exclusive will take the crown.

SeanScythe6308d ago

Yeah I like the look of KZ2 and for a FPS it's the best looking on any console. Best looking game is still Uncharted I haven't seen any game other then Uncharted 2. GOW3 may out do it but it's still far off and may improve.

PirateThom6308d ago

We all know what happened in the final few months with Killzone 2 where the graphics took a leap, God of War III will be the same.

DrWan6308d ago

Will they just keep on making games that looks identical on both system, which will end up start to look more and more mediocre. I mean if u look at GTA4, i know it's sandbox, but the graphic looks PS2 on big screen. Will they keep on just doing that to make it look identical on both systems, or will they make the same leaps and bounds the first party studios are now making.

PirateThom6308d ago

An interesting conundrum.

Then again, I'd like to see what Infinity Ward could do with the Killzone 2 engine.

DrWan6308d ago

Yeah, because i truly believe if third party do not utilize the hardware to full, sooner or later, i think people can just look at a game and tell if it's first or third party with no knowledge of game development (which 90% of the gaming populations do not). Actually i think you can already tell IMO. Third party will get obsolete in terms of graphics, they better hope that their game play will hold up.

supremacy6308d ago

and although gta4 is a large sandbox game many here to over looking at a potential sleeping hit in infamous, this game from what i hear is said to be large in scale yet is clearly evident that its visuals are far superior to gta4's and even more than crackdown? but you are right though. if god of war and killzone2 arent around to steal all the hype and glamour than more people wouldn't be over looking this new entry of a game.

but on topic, you are right but if 3rd parties start using the kz2 engine than sony would start having more exclusives on thir side.

DrWan6308d ago

Well KZ 2 is made with in house engine plus Playstation Edge toolset which is available to all developers. But I highly doubt they will make multiplatform games like that, because they want to keep both games looking the "SAME" on both platform.

nix6308d ago (Edited 6308d ago )

if the publisher has guts and says, to hell with games looking similar and decides to make PS3 games look better, they can. they are in reality doing it if you look at Wii games vs PS3/360 games. they're giving less importance in visual and tackling Wii games differently. if they want they can do the same for PS3 and 360 games.

different consoles and powers didn't stop publishers from making PS3/360 games look superior than Wii. why should it stop them from making it look similar when it comes to PS3 and 360? they anyway have to code the games completely separately. but in the end, it all depends on what the publisher wants to do.

if the publishers do decide to treat games differently in each console, then we will have three tiers. PS3 version, 360 version and Wii version.

RememberThe3576308d ago

back in the PS2 days. Everyone knew that the Xbox was more powerful so we all knew that the multi-platform games would look better on that system. But now these devs pull this weird ass policy out of their asses when it comes to the 360 and PS3. Where did it come from?

king dong6308d ago

perhaps you just unknowingly answered the question. that this massive edge that people on here think exists, is only in the heads and collective know-nothingness of the members!

yeah kz2 looks amazing, and runs on an amazing game engine, but is there an concrete proof that the 360 couldn't run it? i've not yet seen any, although i've heard plenty of people without a single seconds dev experience claiming such, there's no proof what-so-ever!

it's microsofts lack of 1st party devs that are to blame for games not having the financial and time investment that sonys 1st party devs are showing and have. you cant expect 3rd party devs to do it for you....and the unreal3 engine is already pretty much been optimised to the max.

king dong6308d ago

disagreed, yet didn't bother saying why...i'll chalk that one up as a fanboys disagree then! hurt feelings perhaps?

Why Guerrilla Games Shouldn't Abandon the Killzone Series

Hugely disappointingly, it seems that Guerrilla Games, developers of the Killzone and Horizon series, may be done with Killzone for good.

1 was fine, overhyped as a " halo" killer
2 was a graphical beast at the time, and felt heavy
3 was good a refinement of 2 but not much else. weird audio issues environment were to quiet
shadow fall was pretty but bland

OtterX578d ago (Edited 578d ago )

Shadowfall had great Multiplayer though. Too bad the campaign was meh at best. It did have the occasional great moment sprinkled in.

TheNamelessOne578d ago (Edited 578d ago )

I played through 2/3 multiple times. I played through the original once, but it felt pretty lukewarm for me. I couldn't be bothered to beat Shadow Fall. I got a couple hours in and just went "I'm done". Never touched it again. It was awesome on the tech side, being a launch title, but it didn't even match up to the first game when it came to actually having fun playing it.

Rude-ro578d ago

3 in 3d was an amazing experience to be had.
Although not many experienced it as intended for good reasons.

just_looken578d ago

You forgot the ai advancements on the playstation 2 killzone one you could have a full team of bots doing everything even playing the objective that was a big thing.

In killzone 2 they always flanked you and when available used the high ground.

Playing killzone 2 no hud 5.1 audio was/is awesome

MDTunkown578d ago

They should finish Horizon story first

darthv72578d ago

I dont mind if someone else takes up the mantle for the KZ franchise. We are several years removed from the first game. It certainly could use a remake to gauge interest in the rest of the series. I know it has its fans... Im thinking of how a proper reboot can rekindle that old dormant flame and bring in a new generation of fans in the process.

just_looken578d ago

You forgot killzone mercenaries on the ps vita but it was the worst selling sony game for awhile there.

Yui_Suzumiya577d ago

Yeah, a remake would be pretty awesome

anast578d ago

They should let it go or sell it. No use spending millions on this project.

LucasRuinedChildhood578d ago

Would like a new IP before Horizon 3. Just because games take so long to make these days.

PlayStation 3 Games That Desperately Need a PS5 Remaster

The PlayStation 3 may not have been the strongest generation for Sony, but there were still some diamonds in the rough that deserve a revisit as PS5 remasters.

OtterX807d ago (Edited 807d ago )

Even if they could just remaster and put on PSVR2, some would still look great as VR titles and could do a whole lot to bolster the headset w these exclusives! I'd imagine the investment of reworking these titles into VR would be way less than building new games from the ground up, and they could be amazing experiences, and VR often makes flat games feel fresh again. The Resistance and Killzone games are particularly what I want to see!!

Rude-ro807d ago

I played killzone 3 in 3d and it really changed the game per being immersive.
In vr, that would be even more awesome.

darthv72807d ago

Funny you mention that... my son wanted to play some PS3 games in 3d on my PS tv and he was blown away by how good KZ3 was. It really was a great addition to the game. Im surprised there have not been more 3d games from that era being ported to the PSVR/VR2.

_SilverHawk_807d ago

resistance 1-3, killzone 1-3, uncharted 1-3, uncharted golden abyss, folklore, socom 4 , motorstorm, twisted metal, MAG, heavenly sword

Cacabunga807d ago

Killzone 2+3
Sly Thieves in Time
Crack in Time
God of War Ascension
Motorstorm
Modnation racer
Infamous 1+2

Profchaos807d ago (Edited 807d ago )

Killzone trilogy in VR would be amazing bonus points if they offer shadow fall.

There was a psvr1 Killzone project that supermassive was working on at one stage which wasn't up to scratch and Sony brand it back in house I was hoping we would see that on psvr2 eventually.

Personally I'd love to see some more love or acknowledgement of psvr2 from Sony in general it was a expensive headset and Sony barely acknowledge it's existence

seanpitt23807d ago

The amount of work needed to remaster these games wouldn't be beneficial on a financial and business sense.. MGS4 would probably be the best bet as it would need the least amount of work!

Iceball2000807d ago

YEAAASSSSS! I miss this franchise and wanna play it so bad again.

Father__Merrin807d ago

The time is perfect for a resistance fall of man game campaign coop multiplayer

InUrFoxHole807d ago

The resistance series is str8 trash to me. Socom 3 I would welcome. Or killzone MP.

Marcus Fenix807d ago

A Resistance reboot will be awesome

Michiel1989807d ago

That's what Bungie should make, Ill keep saying it until it happens

1Victor807d ago (Edited 807d ago )

Resistance was ok but Warhawk and Starhawk was better and kept me coming back for almost a decade of fun and petty revenge on the loud mouth unskilled players 🤣
Edit I loved capture the flag dropping the pot on the flag carrier was extremely satisfying as well as transforming your plane in bot form and stumping them to death 😱

Michiel1989807d ago

Resistance was the best co-op fps I ever played after L4D2

Up there with the top tier in the industry. Love Guerrilla Games - Horizon Burning Shores is simply STUNNING.

1Victor1111d ago

Can’t wait for their next franchise

SullysCigar1111d ago

Same. They nailed it with Horizon. The trouble is I also want a new Killzone! Can't I just have it all?!

jznrpg1111d ago

I’m with you I want Horizon 3 , Killzone and new IPs

badz1491111d ago

I have yet to play Burning Shores as I just started Forbidden West (bought at launch, just unwrapped last weekend LOL) and playing on PS5.

man...I still can't believe the graphics especially now I'm playing it on my LG OLED. that graphics and with stable performance backing it up, GG really is the master of their craft!

Vengeance11381111d ago

32.7M sales in the Horizon franchise! With 8.4M coming from Forbidden West alone! Truly a hugely successful game and franchise as a whole. Looking forward to Horizon III

Shane Kim1111d ago

That's kind of a huge drop though. It's only been two games.

VersusDMC1111d ago

One year after realease HZD sold 7.6 million.

https://www.noobfeed.com/ne...

So not a drop off.

Unless you're saying a HFW should have sold as much now as HZD sold in 5 years?

Vengeance11381111d ago

It's been 3 games, this includes Call of the Mountain. Also no, its a great improvement over HZD.

solideagle1111d ago

lol you are comparing:

HZD: 28 February 2017 - May 2023 (6 years+)

HFW: 18 February 2022 - May 2023 (1 year+)

We will see if it surpass original number.

Phoenix761111d ago

@shane, 2 full main games, 2 DLC add ons, 1 VR spin off game, oh and a an official LEGO set.
Not too bad for an ip that's only been on market for 6 years

Wow, very impressive. I didn't know the numbers were so high for Forbidden West. Still playing through it myself

thesoftware7301111d ago (Edited 1111d ago )

Yooo, when I first saw that Killzone 1 footage at E3, my friends my brothers and I were like, Holy shit! When it came out, it didn't look exactly like it, but we sunk so many hours into 1 & 2.

I even liked Killzone: SF, it was a spectacle to look at, and even today it looks good. I hope they make a new one. Can you imagine how that will look, and they can get some modern FPS pointers from Bungie.

blacktiger1111d ago

thank you fps lover, I'm with you

talocaca1111d ago

Such a wonderful studio. They deserve all their success.

The Decima Engine is absolute 🔥 I'm just mad they have abandoned Killzone.

OzzY-waZZy1111d ago (Edited 1111d ago )

Kinda wish they move on from Horizon tbh.

lukasmain1111d ago

They are probably working on mutiple projects. One of them is Horizon 3, but another is a multiplaer game and probably somehting else.

Imalwaysright1111d ago

There were rumours that they were working on a Socom reboot.
