Killzone 3 versus Killzone 2: HD Screenshot comparison

Killzone 2 was a visual showcase for the PlayStation 3. It was (and still is) one of the most atmospheric shooters available on the system. We all knew that there was going to be a third game in the series, with updated visuals and game play.

Killzone 3 Pre-Alpha Code > Killzone 2??? O_o

sikbeta5739d ago

Well, that's How it Works, GG is making KZ3D as Amazing as Possible, this Game will be a Total Beast...

StanLee5739d ago (Edited 5739d ago )

It's amazing what lighting and a change in environment can do. The level of detail in Killzone 3 just stands out! Amazing quality. I hope co-op is announced soon.

yes and better than your precious 560p amazing games..

"'Killzone 3 best FPS graphics. '
Haha in what 720P at 30FPS?"

Yes. Killzone 3, in 720P at 30FPS, graphically beats all the shit and urine out of Crysis 2 in 1080P at 60 FPS, and then forces all those shit and urine Crysis 2's throat.

And now that your question is answered, please go play Crysis 2 so we gamers can have a productive discussion.

gameseveryday5739d ago

Again goes to show how Killzone 3 will eventually better Killzone 2.

Fishy Fingers5739d ago

Ahhh Conloles, the die-hard PC gamer that's only to be found in console threads.

"Killzone 3 Pre-Alpha Code > Killzone 2"

lol at some people just not getting the whole 'pre-alpha' thing.

Killzone 3s 'pre-alpha' engine is MORE polished than Killzone 2s finished engine. why? BECAUSE IT IS USING THE FINISHED KILLZONE 2 ENGINE!!! theyre not making a whole new engine, theyre just making additions to the Killzone 2 engine.

Killzone 3s engine does not technically have a 'pre-alpha' stage, because it is using a completed engine to begin with.

Killzone 3 Looks better than anything that is to come out in the period of next 2 years,

Jay5205739d ago

Don't count out Uncharted 3 if it comes out in 2011.
Infamous 2 looks good also.

Haters can hate, but Killzone 3 will be my most anticipated title for the next year. I still play Killzone 2 all the time and can't wait to see what they do with the multiplayer for KZ3.

I loved being able to play all of the different game types in one big battle, so much diverse gameplay. Not to mention the class system giving different abilities and weapons. The clan system is amazing too.

gameseveryday5739d ago

I second that. But I really think the online modes could use a bit of work. I am not saying its bad...but definitely things could go amazing in Killzone 3 if they work on it.

Hellsvacancy5739d ago

K2's like a Beta for K3, those pre alpha shots looks SICK

The PS3 is leaps ahead of the competition in the graphics department, if u cant c that your dumb

Noble Spartan5739d ago

Yes graphics of this game are awesome.

MNicholas5739d ago (Edited 5739d ago )

The first game was absolutely stunning.

The new one takes it to the next level with gorgeously animated ocean wavess, moving ice-bergs, etc... It's all possible because of the Cell processor.

Keep in mind that the RSX, which based on the performance of the 7900GT (it's identical twin in PC gaming) has the raw shader power to run games like Bioshock, Gears, and Battlefield 2 at max settings at better than 720P. So if you can overcome bottlenecks in bandwidth and RAM by utilizing all the buses, memory pools and caches, it can already produce some stunning visuals.

With Killzone 2 and, even more so, with Killzone 3, someone on another tech forum put GG's method of obtaining such unbelievable visuals in perspective really well and I'll explain it here.

Anyone who plays games on a PC knows that the moment you disable even just AA, your frame-rate shoots up.

With Killzone 3, what GG have done is disable AA on the GPU and moved it fully to the Cell processor. This alone gave them a big boost in frame-rate which they applied towards the better textures and shading you're seeing. In addition, because the Cell is so ridiculously powerful and fast, the AA is vastly better than what a GPU would do anyway.

So, similar to that, they've made other changes as well.

IHateYouFanboys5738d ago

"With Killzone 3, what GG have done is disable AA on the GPU and moved it fully to the Cell processor. This alone gave them a big boost in frame-rate which they applied towards the better textures and shading you're seeing."

thanks for making all that up, but if you could stop spreading lies it would be nice.

the AA that Killzone 2 uses is Quincunx. it uses basically NO resources, as all it does is blur the entire screen. so removing that AA does NOT give them any sort of performance boost whatsoever. its like saying that changing the colour of the HUD from white to red made the framerate increase 50% - its a flat out lie.

and Guerilla have NOT said that they are using Cell-based Anti-Aliasing. in fact, the only confirmation we have from Guerilla about their Anti-Aliasing in Killzone 3 is that it is NOT using the method used in God of War 3:

http://blog.eu.playstation....

the question:
"We hear often how the SCEWWS share tech from their various games, will KZ3 be implementing the God of War 3 Anti Aliasing technique (which Littlebigplanet 2 will also be using)?"

the reply:
"Good question. We share a lot of inspiration with the other studios. But we all have our own Tech."

Akagi5739d ago

D'aww, Conloles. The little entry level troll. :')

Rhythmattic5739d ago

One thing I have learnt about KZ, is Static/Stills do not ever do the game justice.

Big Frank5738d ago

There are a lot of PS3 fans on this site that make out graphics to be the most important aspect of a game. They spout that games such as KZ2 are even innovative because of the grapics. A lot of people here spent $600 dollars on their PS3. With that kind of money spent on a PC you can play games that make KZ2 look last gen, check out ARMA 2.

Graphics on the PS3 are pathetic compared to a good PC. Ha HA I laugh at you pathetic fanboys spewing about graphics.

In the big picture, KZ3 just looks pretty good and nothing else.

Red Panda5738d ago

You just stick to ALL those pc games that are dropping left and right. I'll go spend 600$ on a pc to play what exactly? One game worth playing every 2-3 years. Shut your mouth. Who the hell writes ha ha? You're dumb.

Big Frank5738d ago

Ok...so im dumb because i write "hha ha"? Um, no. Im just not that used to writing lol in posts because i dont post in forums that often.

Oh i also game on the 360 so i do get a break from all the games that are on pc that put every game on the PS3 to shame grahically.

What games will you play on PC? Well...let me see....ARMA 2 for one, maybe napoloen total war? The new diablo game is making my balls wet too. Not to mention all the mods and bizzilions of free maps out there.

Dont even start kid. I own you.

DeathMetal5738d ago (Edited 5738d ago )

Nice to see someone speak the truth but we are in PS3 dellusion land Killzone looks better than real life LOL

TengkuAmir105738d ago (Edited 5738d ago )

PC games shit on PS3 games? You're the only one delusional here, nutcase. ARMA 2? I know your just joking so I'm not going to reply on that one. Let me check your comments......ooh....you only have the money to buy PC and the 360....no wonder. Killzone 3 shits on Arma 2 in terms of graphics and gameplay. Unlike you, I actually own all 3 consoles and with a gaming computer. I built my own PC to play games and I was left disappointed as most of the games are mediocre.

RAM: DDR2 8 GBs.
Processor: Intel Quad Core 2.8Ghz.
Monitor: A HP monitor with Full HD. I can give you proof of this with pictures.
Motherboard: Gigabyte GA-P55
Graphics Card: Sapphire ATI RADEON HD 5850
Controller I use for gaming purposes: XBOX 360 controller for Windows.
HDD: SATA 500gb

I play a lot of games with it but unfortunately, only pirated ones. I download every of my PC games at katz.cd, you name it, Rapidshare has it. PC has everything I tell you, but it does not have a PS3.

And just to add to that unfortune, my PC can't do Blu-Ray and for that very reason i consider it last gen. Although I can just buy a BR enabled disk player for my PC to watch movies in real high quality, I don't need to do that. I already have a PS3.

MAKE.BELIEVE

Btw, is that you conloles?

MRMagoo1235738d ago

Can anyone explain how you can get "wet balls" from any game? Diablow might be ok i wasnt a fan of the old ones i like rpgs that have variety myself rather than go into the dungeon kill things come out sell loot go back into the dungeon get further in kill more things come back out to sell loot again back into the dungeon again get a few more floors down then back up to town again to sell loot till the game in complete. How fun is uncharted 2 on that pc or ur fat frank?

i am speechless... how can this be possible?

Killzone 2 + SNOW = Killzone 3

TheHater5739d ago

So you have played the full game of Killzone 3 to even make a stupid comment like that? So tell me, how is the Jungle and "Space" levels because Killzone 2 lack both of those

TheN4GUser5739d ago (Edited 5739d ago )

You are sad halocursed

gameseveryday5739d ago

what? I mean no offence...But I dont agree with you on that. Killzone 3 looks fa detailed then 2.

TKCMuzzer5739d ago

Halo 3 + over rated reviews + over exposure = millions of gullible purchasers. Wow this is easy. KZ3 looks good, lets all just admit it.

Big Frank5738d ago

@TKCMuzzer

Ha ha your post is so sad.

Ok, lets say your logic is sound. How do you explain the millions still playing today? Do you think they are doing it to spite everyone and prove them wrong?

Please explain to everyone why you think so many people play the game and why they didn't throw it away when they realised after playing it the first time it was no good. And please dont say "CUz Xbopxes got noes gamezzz!!!." because you already seem retarded.

OneSneakyMofo5739d ago

Says the guy with Halo in his name. What version of Halo are you guys on now? 1.5?

Spenok5738d ago

Except for the fact KZ3 looks better. Yeah it may be my a marginal amount, however the edges look nicer. Textures look better. And pretty much the over all picture is crisper and clearer. The game looks great.

There's too many games to choose from

No Metal geat solid 1,2,3,4?
No Resident evil?
No Silent hill?
No Midnight club 3?
No NfS Underground 2?
No Final Fantasy?
No Burnout 3?
No Dragon quest 8?
No Days gone?
No Ace combat?
No Tekken/Soul calibur?......
just from the top of my head

PS1 era was full of great RPGs, PS2 was racing generation i would pick top 200 and even that would be just a fraction.

FinalFantasyFanatic485d ago

30 is way too low over the entire history of Playstation, I just wouldn't be able to narrow it down that much, I would pick 100 at least.

Storm23485d ago

Yeah...really odd list. I get that it is personal preference and I love most of the games listed, but my list would definitely be different. I agree though, it would be incredibly difficult to come up with just 30.

lockedongamer1485d ago (Edited 485d ago )

I only picked first-party titles. Otherwise, I agree!

EDIT: Except for Days Gone, I don't get the love for it but you do you!

Chocoburger475d ago

I didn't like Days Gone either, it doesn't deserve to be on any best of list.

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

OtterX518d ago (Edited 518d ago )

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

TheNamelessOne517d ago (Edited 517d 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-ro518d ago

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

just_looken517d 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

MDTunkown518d ago

They should finish Horizon story first

darthv72518d 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_looken517d ago

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

Yui_Suzumiya517d ago

Yeah, a remake would be pretty awesome

anast518d ago

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

LucasRuinedChildhood518d 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.

OtterX747d ago (Edited 747d 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-ro746d ago

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

darthv72746d 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_746d ago

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

Crack in Time
God of War Ascension
Motorstorm

Profchaos746d ago (Edited 746d 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

seanpitt23746d 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!

Iceball2000747d ago

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

Father__Merrin747d ago

Marcus Fenix747d ago

A Resistance reboot will be awesome

Michiel1989747d ago

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

1Victor747d ago (Edited 747d 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 😱
