Killzone 3 versus Crysis 2: HD Video Comparison

GB writes: "Killzone 3 and Crysis 2, when you hear about these games the first thing that pops in your mind is that both are visual benchmarks for the platforms they are being released on. Guerilla's managing director, Hermen Hulst, has stated Killzone 3 will use close to 100% of the PS3's power. And that is true since Killzone 3 does look a notch ahead of Killzone 2. On the other hand we have Crysis 2. A behemoth in the visuals department, the game is said to surpass the original game graphically and have we have noted that combat in the game will be "catastrophically beautiful"."

Extremely low resolution? Check.
No actual comparison? Check.

"Let's put two videos of early builds of each game beside each other and call it news"

gameseveryday5746d ago

Check the video. Its HD..I dont believe people cant see Youtube HD written in the video. :S

Motorola5746d ago

Youtube HD doesnt mean the video IS HD. I can render a 360p video for 1080p. Youtube wouldnt notice and itll look like crap.

SnuggleBandit5746d ago

The screenshots are horrible quality thats for sure...both games look better than that

ABizzel15746d ago

Stop complaining the video is fixed.

Now this is a hard comparison. Both games look amazing, and it's too close to call, I have to wait until I get them both early next year.

Now from those videos the multiplayer goes to Crysis to me, simply because of all the color, while Killzone looks like the net gen filter in Uncharted 2. But Killzone's multiplayer looks a lot more enjoyable and fun than Crysis.

piroh5746d ago (Edited 5746d ago )

since i'm a PS3 owner i can get both
..but now i'm voting for Killzone 3, Crysis 2 simply can't push PS3 to it's limits because the game is multiplat

SilentNegotiator5746d ago

More garbage from Gamebolt.

Make sure to click "GamingBolt.com +" and give them a "WTF?" story quality.

Darkstorn5745d ago

Both games are far from being finished. What gives?

You need to check the site since there are two videos in HD and they seem alright to me.

knightdarkbox5746d ago (Edited 5746d ago )

I just read the latest article from Crytek and how they're saying that Crysis 2 will literally push the PS3 to its limits. honestly it could go either way. Also remember that Killzone 2 was nice but very linear, they could just have awesome looking backdrops. While Crysis is going to be open world rendering all that is seen on the fly. So I say technically Crysis 2 is probably going to be more advanced and better game.

Karooo5746d ago

go back to your other account now

da305kratos5746d ago

dont expect crysis 2 to have the same kind of open world environment that crysis had, it ain't happening. Especially since consoles are in the mix now....Also, Killzone wasn't comepletely linear as people make it out to be...Moreover, i'm sure GG knows the PS3 better than Crytek...

hilliat27835746d ago

According to the posts that have come up since KZ3's showing the game will be a lot more open. Also all of the videos show much more open enviroments.

TheXgamerLive5745d ago

the ps3's so called best exclusives are a joke in this respect, their "ALL" linear. The ps3 doesn't come close to being the best. The ps3's only advantage is the disc space that the BR gives it, the ps3 is underpowered and it's so called exclusives are ok, but extremely linear. gow3, kz 2&3, wow u couldn't be anymore linear.

the ps3 and the xbox 360 both have their short comings, but to try and glorify the ps3 as something that's it's not is a joke.

The ps3 it only does linear exclusives:)

Doesn't sound good does it, so seriously let's chil with the console BS no matter who you support.

Roonie5745d ago

Ps3 exclusives are linear?

like

Alanwake? Conviction? Halo? ehhh

zootang5745d ago (Edited 5745d ago )

I don't think he ever played Killzone 2

Nyxter5745d ago

The only thing is i can acreate a program to max out anything... alll it does is duplicate itself - to find it go onto cnet.com, you will just need to put it into the right language... Its all about how to use the machine efficiently... ofcourse you can 'max out' a machine just to make it sound good however its whether its been efficient.

joydestroy5746d ago

yeah this is pretty pointless right now since NEITHER are final builds man. c'mon now.

Death24945746d ago

Now if Crytek decides to launch this game alongside Killzone3, than I'm not picking it up until later. But if they release it a couple of months later than Killzone3 than I'll pick it up. Crysis already has the PC crowd but it's going to be hard to convince people go give up Reach or Killzone3 for their game.

Christopher5746d ago (Edited 5746d ago )

Gah. Not another idiotic 'HD' video comparison where it's two very SD videos crammed into one.

Anyone making a decision on this is an idiot. There's just not enough to compare at that size and the way the various gameplay elements are thrown together.

marinelife95746d ago

Crysis 2 looks like a generic shooter to me. I'm still not seeing the hype. Rage looks better than Crysis 2 in my opinion.

DeathMetal5745d ago (Edited 5745d ago )

looks just like the last one and LOL at the post above saying killzone is not that linear .

AnttiApina5745d ago

CRYSIS 2 WINS! DISAGREE WITH ME SONY FANBOYS!

SonyPS3605745d ago (Edited 5745d ago )

Going solely on the dismissive, early comments; I take it Crysis looked better than the Ps3 exclusive.

halocursed5746d ago

I'm going with Crysis 2 on this one..

Spaghett5746d ago (Edited 5746d ago )

Yeah Crysis 2 looks better. In terms of gameplay and graphics.

Why? Just because you love your PS3?

ruibo5746d ago

both look nice, but i need a better comp to run them. QQ

Our Story – Episode 2 – Crysis 2 to Ryse: Son of Rome

Crytek : In episode two of Our Story, the team discusses the evolution of Crysis into Crysis 2 and 3 (and the pressures that came with it), how a local connection landed an incredible collaboration with legendary composer Hans Zimmer, and the New York trip that inspired much of Crysis 2. For the gladiators among you, you’ll also get an exclusive behind-the-scenes look at the development of Ryse: Son of Rome and the attention to detail that went into it.

piroh548d ago

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.

FinalFantasyFanatic548d 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.

Storm23547d 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.

lockedongamer1547d ago (Edited 547d 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!

Chocoburger538d ago

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

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

1Victor1114d ago

Can’t wait for their next franchise

SullysCigar1114d ago

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

jznrpg1113d ago

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

badz1491113d 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!

Vengeance11381114d 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 Kim1114d ago

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

VersusDMC1114d 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?

Vengeance11381114d ago

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

solideagle1114d 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.

Phoenix761114d 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

REDGUM1113d ago

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

thesoftware7301114d ago (Edited 1114d 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.

blacktiger1113d ago

thank you fps lover, I'm with you

talocaca1114d ago

Such a wonderful studio. They deserve all their success.

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

OzzY-waZZy1114d ago (Edited 1114d ago )

Kinda wish they move on from Horizon tbh.

lukasmain1113d ago

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

Imalwaysright1113d ago

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