Interesting. The Alpha looks only mildly better/even with Killzone 2, where as the Beta exceeds it greatly.

hazardman5610d ago

yeah thats what i was thinking looking at the pre alpha pics looks like KZ2, Guerilla has made some great improvements..man i really hope this game does well. I bought KZ2 and all map packs only to realize there wasn't that many people playing online, but when you do get to play man the game is awesome.

nveenio5610d ago

Killzone 2/3 are the best looking console shooters we've got available to us (and I'm sure Crysis won't change that). But in this instance and with other games, I always like the Alpha footage better. I think the textures are crisper. In this example, the draw distance in Beta is better, but it seems like they took out some of the lens effects. I think what happens is that they start Alpha code strong, but as they develop their ideas get bigger and they have to start making textures smaller and models more "optimized" in order to get their ideas working. In KZ3's case, though, they were using KZ2 assets, so the assets improved making other engine "refinements" (in order to make way for 3D, split-screen, etc) less noticeable.

deafwing5610d ago

just want a great experience overall, sometimes taking a pretty girl on a date doesn't always bring full benefits; they have to be top notch in all facets

SnuggleBandit5610d ago

If anything eljugador is a ps3 fanboy people...he just doesnt like gamersmint apparently.

5610d ago
MisfitSmurf5610d ago

TBH it just looks like they got rid of the yellow tint for a purple-ish one.

i laughed my a** off at Jugador being called xbox/pc fanboy.

STONEY45610d ago (Edited 5610d ago )

It looks more like the second set was taken off-screen, resulting in a color difference. You can tell by the parts where a bright light is showing, it looks like camera over-exposure.

heroprotagonist5609d ago

Yep, I see a difference in color palette, but little else. The game still looks great, but I think people are seeing what they want to see.

Delt45610d ago

Karooo- i was thinking the same thing. Stunning! I can't wait to get my hands on the final build.

shotgun_ps35610d ago

That is more or less exactly what I was saying and it's great to, finally, see a comparison of the same shots.

Dsnyder5610d ago

Just when you think it cant look better!

Vherostar5610d ago

More proof that people only care about graphics these days.. A shame really as gameplay matters to me more than graphics. Not saying Killzone won't have it and I am buying day 1 for the co-op elements etc but the graphics ain't the reason I am buying this game. Ask Bungie as great as people think Halo looks it was never meant to be a great looking game it was meant to be accessible and that helps sales massively.

the_best_player5610d ago

I really like how the body moves when shot at, the animation is amazing. I've never seen any other game with that realistic impact that the bullets do.

Killzone has the gameplay, amazing animation and high graphics.
Day 1 buy for me.

a big improvement, although the pics dont do the game justice, too small and very grainy

beavis4play5610d ago

yea - the game videos i've seen are jaw-droppingly amazing.

SonyPS3605609d ago

I think I need help here. What are the differences other than the brightness?

Huge improvement IMO much more color in the beta code.

CobraKai5609d ago

I love how they made it more colorful.

StarScream4Ever5610d ago

Man look at those improve lightings and colors. 8D

Arup025610d ago (Edited 5610d ago )

I only see info about the graphics.What are the other improvements in relation to KZ2? (This is a question, im only curious)

StarScream4Ever5610d ago

Control response improved.
Gameplay and weapons tweaks.
Variety for weapons.
Longer campaign *hopefully*
Different environments on Helghan.
And more!

zeksta5610d ago

You forgot.

Split Screen Co-op, Exoskeleton Vehicle in MP and possible Dual Login for PSN Users

hesido5610d ago

With all these improvements, I think I'm going to puke if any journalist criticizes KZ3 for being much of the same of KZ2.

Imaginary quote:
"Aside from improved graphics, controls, gameplay, more weapons, more single player, more variety in environments, split screen co-op, more vehicles, 3d support; KZ3 is much the same as KZ2, I'd have expected more from GG."

zaz125610d ago

you have also forgot the new melee attack system

beavis4play5610d ago

don't forget the COOL melee kills. i'm using them as much as possible!

MrAwesome5610d ago

3D
Move
Better Dialouge(according to GG)

Dr-Zoidberg5609d ago

Deeper story line about the helghast
Battlefield Bad Company 2 style dynamic sound
Smarter AI

Lol at Arup02's really cautious stance not to get disagrees for his first comment. Oh, the ways of N4G.

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.

FinalFantasyFanatic526d 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.

Storm23526d 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.

lockedongamer1526d ago (Edited 526d 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!

Chocoburger516d 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.

1Victor1092d ago

Can’t wait for their next franchise

SullysCigar1092d ago

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

jznrpg1091d ago

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

badz1491091d 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!

Vengeance11381092d 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 Kim1092d ago

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

VersusDMC1092d 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?

Vengeance11381092d ago

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

solideagle1092d 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.

Phoenix761092d 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

thesoftware7301092d ago (Edited 1092d 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.

blacktiger1091d ago

thank you fps lover, I'm with you

talocaca1092d ago

Such a wonderful studio. They deserve all their success.

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

OzzY-waZZy1092d ago (Edited 1092d ago )

Kinda wish they move on from Horizon tbh.

lukasmain1092d ago

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

Imalwaysright1092d ago

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

Still looks secure 2 gens later... one of my favorite ps3 moments. With 3D and move the game is on another level

MadLad1843d ago

PC almost always ends up the best place to play games, even if it takes a while.

What would you rather play decades down the line? A game at a fixed resolution and frame, considering you have a working disc, and the hardware?
Or run it on an emulator that can update the experience all around, and let you use whatever control input you prefer?

If you insist on the former, it's really only for the sake of nostalgia.

Applejack1843d ago

I disagree. The main draw for consoles has always be the simplicity of just putting the disc in / downloading it and playing without worrying about anything else. The average person just wouldn’t want to deal with emulation even though it’s very important for preservation.

Terry_B1843d ago

Even emulators are super simple to use.

jukins1843d ago

Youre getting flak because people on here thibk of themselves as pc wizards. But honestly most poeple try and go get emulators and romz they end up with malware.. yes theyre "easy" if you know the basics but alot of people dont. That said the fact that its taken nearly 20 years to get a sustantially better experience for ps3 games than on its native system shows the complexity of getting bc to work. Sony, if they have any intention, should just invest in a vastly better psnow experience.

1843d ago
Vegamyster1842d ago

jukins

Most people who emulate don't get malware, you'd have to be going to some weird sites for that to happen, heck years ago people were getting sketchier ad's resulting in malware warning on this site if you didn't have a ad-blocker lol.

SinkingSage1842d ago

Can't get malware if you legally dump your own games, which you should.

Rachel_Alucard1842d ago (Edited 1842d ago )

That's fine if that's the main draw, but it doesn't make it a better experience, just a preference. Having the freedom to do the things you can do on PC is what the appeal of PC is. Buying a game on PC means you never have to worry about the console makers just deciding the next hardware shouldn't support the generation anymore, which means everything you bought is stuck on that hardware instead of moving up with everything else. Nintendo uses this tactic to keep reselling the same games over and over at inflated prices. Sony cut all previous gens off the PS4 and sold it back to people in a poor attempt with PSnow. While the PS5 supports PS4 games, that may not be the case in the next gen after this. No to mention shutting off all the previous stores and updates completely. Even MS stopped making new BC titles at some point, so now there's a big list with 17 pages of titles that are not playable on Xbone and are just trapped on older gen. That's not a problem on PC, the reverse happens where you only have to worry if your hardware can play the newest releases at ultra with no issue.

Shhh don't say that aloud! You're going to trigger a lot of console infidels here.

Shane Kim1843d ago

I rather play it when it's available then wait 10 years.

MadLad1842d ago

Did you purposely miss the entire point of my post?

Inverno1842d ago

Well that's the beauty of still owning a retro console tho. Those who usually complain about emulation are just being blindly loyal to a company. Emulation is great for many reason, but if I still owned the console then I disagree nothing beats plugging it back in and going down a nostalgia trip

The RPCS3 devs are doing great work. And Kami works nicely with it too it seems.
Very neat.

2 is the better game.

A Remake would be good. 60fps 2-4k

60fps is peasant for FPS games now
