can't wait

From what I have seen so far of this game it is going to be awesome. There are better picture and photos out there.

... and I will buy it for the 360 when it comes out.

Unfortunately, its sales numbers will suffer immeasurably by competing with Halo 3 for the Holiday shooter market. Since Sony fanboys have made it clear they are far too intellectual for shooters like H3, Gears, and others, it will likely suffer among "hardcore" Sony droids who will be too busy waiting, and waiting, and waiting for MGS4 and FFXIII.

The PS3 gpu does not have this feature so I am assuming they will software render most of the visuals and get the CELL to do the work - might as well find a good use for that powerful CPU eh?
I have a PS3 but its games like this that could really benefit from having rumble in the pad.

360- Halo 3
PS3- Killzone 2

honestly who the hell is going to get what may be an ok shooter when you have these flagship titles for both systems.

Good! Can't wait to see more, I'm reserving judgement.

I'd like to learn more about the whole having-consequences about killing or whatever.

didn't make nothing good since goldeneye. Though some of his team did help with pdz. Timesplitters was eh. I'll wait for the reviews.

I still think the PS3 lineup doesn't hold a candel to the 360's but thats just my personal taste.

Haze is not going to do anything for the genre, games that have changed the FPS are

Halo- First time a console shooter controlled well and had great vechile mix

Half-Life 2- Physics, Deep storyline G man

Prey- Portal base, even though it wasn't that great it was still a very solid shooter with a great idea.

Crysis- Photorealistic, most advanced phyisics engine used in a FPS, AND a 100% destroyable enviroments.

that fps are the best/flagship titles, i personally don't like them all them are boring and monotone, in the end they share the same formula shoot run jump dodge and find weapons, with differences like story background and things like this. I think also that fps are most popular in america because of the gun culture (that is insane for me), but in europe, japan and other regions (that have a lot more population than US) they aren't so hyped like there, many of my friend don't play them so much, they play also many rpg action and fighting games. sorry for my english but i'm not an english speaker

No need to apologize Valik the internet is an international community.

However the same argument can be held with RPG's they all follow the same formula of turn base of hack and slash with spells.

Also i meant that Halo 3 and KZ2 are the flagship FPS for both consoles. But something like bioshock which just looks amazing will prob be up there in sales to because it just looks amazing.

I guess Sony had to do somthing to get some games because so far all they have is Sh!ty ports and Blu-Ray movies. LOL looks like Fony fans Actually get a game this year, unless it get pushed to 2008 and then it would be back to nothing but Blu-Ray movies.

Hey LoveHateTragedy guess you wont see Xbox fans being pu**ys and cry baby whining and signing petitions because Sony gets if first. Only Sony fans throw fits and cry like French soldiers when they don't get what they want.

But I can bet that it will tank on the 360.. These timed exclusive things are complete shat! The hype wears off, the bad reviews poor in and it turns the hardcore off from buying the game.. The PS3 has never had a lot of FPS fans, so you chose that console to release an FPS on first and basically setting yourself up for poor reviews.. Good luck with that.

Remember earlier this month, when the same developer launched a massive article bashing Halo because it didn't deal enough with contemporary themes, and now it's announced that PS3 is the lead platform?

I see a trend...

yeah jason stay with u last gen grahpic halo.

I'm not sure about this game, really tell what its gonna do new compared to other FPS? I bet it does nothing new and its gets around an 8 out of 10 in reviews. HL2, Halo, CSS, DoDS are probaly much better than Haze, at this point they are just hyping the game up. As for Halo 3 having bad graphics, do I need to repeat myself again? Its a Beta and its from an old build of Halo 3. I'm pretty sure the build that Bungie has now is graphically better than what we are playing now.

Its not a timed exculsive for the PS3 like Ace Comabt for the 360, this is coming out on all platforms at the same time, although there have been rurmors of it only appearing on the PS3.

and based off the previews and footage I've seen far, it looks like it'll have no trouble finding an audience. I'm actually not surprised that a lot of people are confused over a 3rd party dev explaining that PS3 is superior hardware. There's been so much FUD spread over the past two years that it's hard at times to figure out what's real and what's not.

Luckily, the exclusive titles are really starting to show off what Sony's platform is capable of.

Lead platform doesn't mean its exclusive it means the ps3 is the system they are building the game upon, We dont know yet about timed or specific exclusivity.

Personally I dont like free radical so i dont know if ill like haze..But heres to hoping.

Another KZ2 like trailer. Both trailers show nothing of ingame so whats the excitement? Any other trailers out there which i might have missed out?

k so now they are making it on a difficult platform first cuz usually the development is faster on 360. After all the delays they'll have in releasing the ps3 version by the time they will decide to release 360 version we'll be playing Halo4.

Heavenly Sword developer:

"--Regarding cpu, yes its totally different arguments. The 360's is a very standard setup, a bunch of cores that can all see main memory. The advantage to this is that lots of thread coded written over the years can be ported to it easily. For example, Valve (the Half Life guys) are writing an entirely threaded engine for the PC. When it's done, porting it to the 360 will be easy. How about porting it to the PS3? Nope, won't work, it's a totally different setup. The PS3's main core is basically the same, but its spu's can't see main memory. Each one has 256k that it can work with, so you need to rewrite your code to pack things into 256k chunks, feed it to the spu's to process it, then copy it all back to main memory. In other words, you've gotta rewrite your code.

Now before I get jumped on here let me briefly mention the downsides. The 360's cpu setup is painfully easy to code for. But, they really aren't all that fast. Worse yet, all three cores use the same memory controller so the three cores are not three times the power of the one core on the PS3 due to some overhead. The PS3's spu's on the other hand are monstrously fast. You need to setup your data correctly to work with them, but once thats done then yes, the 360's cpu setup is crap compared to fully working spu's. I say fully working because most current games out there barely even touch on them, it will take time to re-write everything. I haven't done spu coding....yet. I will be though in 2007 which will be pretty cool.--"

Lair developer:

"--A: You’ll have a hard time if you port without having a PS 3 game in mind when you created the 360 version. That is where a lot of complaints are coming from. They created the 360 engine with a unified memory architecture in mind, with the embedded frame buffer with its advantages and disadvantages, and not thinking too much in early stages about multicore. If you try to get that over to the PS 3, you’re in for a bad surprise. The PS 3 is all about streamlining about the two different memory pools. They are separate. You don’t have to do tiling because you don’t have an embedded frame buffer. All of these advantages of the PS 3 turn into disadvantages if you don’t start making your game on the PS 3. Hence the griping. If you create first on the PS 3, it is pretty easy to port it to the 360. A lot of companies coming on board now will probably start on the PS 3 and move to the 360. The lucky thing for us is we didn’t have to think about the 360 at all.--"

Half Life 2 and all Valve products are built with the PC in mind, P C!!!!!! So guess what that makes it really uninviting for PC devlopers to want to port to the PS3, ok thats it done. Half life will never be built with the PS3 in mind.

...whenever there is talk of a 360 FPS exclusive Sony fanboys start talking about how the 360 is all about FPS games and that who would want that. Now we get talk of a PS3 (timed) FPS exclusive and the Sony fanboys are all smiles and cheers.

So I'll get it later rather than sooner for my 360...as long as I get it, I can wait a little longer.

well if it turns out to be exclusive, i will have to wait untill i get a PS3... whenever a price cut happens

porting will be easier this time around done this way. no one should be stuck with a laggy port, like ps3 has been getting. good games for every1.

Lair has the best soundtrack of a major game flop that I can remember. I still listen to it from time to time on Youtube.

I love the fact that at least someone remembers,
during the PS3 era how many bad games, and studios were shuttered during that era. you get nothing but rose-colored/ perfect hindsight about that now...

Haze broke me. I was such a massive fan of Timesplitters that I didn't believe for one second they could make such a generic, sub-par game. It even had a couple of neat ideas, but nothing that could save it from utter failure.

I learnt a harsh lesson from that game.

where's naughty dog's Way of the Warrior ?
