Crysis 2 on consoles can't touch Killzone 2 let alone 3.

Istanbull5509d ago

Killzone 3 looks so much better than Killzone 2, Killzone 2 looks so much better than Crysis 2.

Damn there are a lot of butthurt people on N4G. loI love it!

http://youtu.be/owzhYNcd4OM

Comparing a PC title to a console game is freaking hilarious. How do these butthurt gamers spell desperation? C R Y S I S
haha

And Killzone 2 still can't be matched by any title on Xbox so what the hell are you laughing at exactly? lmao!

NiKK_4195508d ago (Edited 5508d ago )

isn't the 3rd picture really backwards? the top is 2 and the bottom is 3, at least that's what they showed it as on that site with the 1 vs 2 vs 3 comparison

btw i love the way 3 looks, but it just doesn't feel as dark and gritty as 1 and 2, idk i guess i'll have to play the singleplayer before i can't say

read few reviews you fool, it's a new visual benchmark.

MarcusFenixITA5508d ago

BS - The textures are much better and the colors are finer and brighter. And even if it would like part it would still be one of the best looking games around.

kingjoker345509d ago

hornyhaggis you sir, are a Fool.

SoapShoes5509d ago

Bunch of butt hurt fanboys trying to make Killzone 3 look bad to sooth their pain.

hoops5509d ago

KZ3 looks better than Crysis 2 on consoles. Plain and simple.

FinalSpartan5508d ago

stunning graphics.

But as it turns out the game is suffering from average reviews.

85% metacritic oh dear.
88% metacritic Black Ops ( Game hated by PS fanboys apprantly )

Grimmjow5508d ago

Average=70%-80%. Are you a high school dropout? :(

SpitFireAce855508d ago

Just shows how bias media can be a sub HD
game..laggy,random disconnects,graphics
that COD4 trumps a 4 year old game...

Like IGNs review of COD:BlackOps

http://www.ign.com/videos/2...

And Killzone 3

http://www.ign.com/videos/2...

Watch both videos to the end 2 negatives for
BlackOps VS Killzone3 1 negative yet they get
the same score...+ no mentioning of Co-Op
which everyone had a problem with KZ2..

@HornyHaggis care to show us all some ps3 footage of crysis 2 to compare? oh yeah you can't.

Raendom5509d ago

Another German article, another article featuring the word "stunning" in it's title.

hoops5509d ago

The differences are not that big at all. And it would not be because its the same engine as KZ2 just optimized more.
KZ3 has a far better color palate this time around and some more lighting but otherwise its almost the same as KZ2.
This will be the same thing for Gears 3. It looks the same as Gears 2 with a bit more lighting and color. Why? Same engine as Gears 2.

DoomeDx5509d ago

3x more polygons
High resolution textures
More objects on screen
Texture-streaming
Huge areas.

hoops5509d ago (Edited 5509d ago )

It looks almost the same simply because it uses the same engine as the last game but opitimzed. This also applies to Gears 3, ME2 and even Halo Reach.
If a game uses the same game engine for the most part in its sequel, there wont be a huge difference other than a few tweaks and lighting differences and textures. The one exception I can think of is Uncharted 2 where the differences from the first Uncharted to the second was big.

"No, it does look better to me. Is it a big jump? No, but it is a nice sized improvement. Less jaggies, better textures, etc."

That's exactly what I am saying. It looks better but its not a big jump as some people on this site wish it was. It looks almost the same with more polish/optimization.
Saying that KZ2/3 is still one of the best looking games around.

SoapShoes5509d ago

No, it does look better to me. Is it a big jump? No, but it is a nice sized improvement. Less jaggies, better textures, etc.

yewles15509d ago (Edited 5509d ago )

You forgot to add:

Real Dynamic Lighting
SSAO
Object Motion Blur
MLAA

BlackKnight5508d ago

@yewles1

There is no SSAO, at least not in the beta I just played all last night. It's baked in.

Also odd, there was a side screen blur in killzone 2 to make it look like it was doing DOF, but now its completely gone. And also, unless it is because it was beta, textures on enemies and weapons were great, but some walls and cabinets and railings and floors (it was 50/50) had the lowest resolution textures I have ever seen.

DoomeDx5509d ago

^Above.

Killzone 2 already had Object motionblur, SSAO, and dynamic lights

yewles15508d ago (Edited 5508d ago )

Sorry, but the first PS3 title with SSAO was UC2, the original 4D rendering engine in Killzone 2 couldn't handle proper lighting or random shadows (their first attempt), and no how fast you moved, nothing blurred (even Guerrilla devs themselves talked about adding the effect in this one). This is a MUCH bigger jump than most people think it is.

Edit: Before anyone complains, 4D rendering = Defferred rendering.

BlackKnight5508d ago

@wesley-dw

Almost all games have dynamic lights. I think you are talking about deferred lighting, where you can have ALOT more dynamic lights.

Also, KZ2 had no SSAO and from the beta I just played of KZ3, no SSAO still, just nicely pre-baked AO.

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.

FinalFantasyFanatic465d 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.

Storm23465d 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.

lockedongamer1465d ago (Edited 465d 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!

Chocoburger456d 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

OtterX498d ago (Edited 498d ago )

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

TheNamelessOne498d ago (Edited 498d 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-ro498d ago

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

just_looken498d 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

MDTunkown498d ago

They should finish Horizon story first

darthv72498d 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_looken498d ago

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

Yui_Suzumiya498d ago

Yeah, a remake would be pretty awesome

anast498d ago

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

LucasRuinedChildhood498d 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.

OtterX728d ago (Edited 728d 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-ro727d ago

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

darthv72727d 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_727d ago

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

Cacabunga727d ago

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

Profchaos727d ago (Edited 727d 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

seanpitt23727d 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!

Iceball2000727d ago

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

Father__Merrin727d ago

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

InUrFoxHole727d ago

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

Marcus Fenix727d ago

A Resistance reboot will be awesome

Michiel1989727d ago

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

1Victor727d ago (Edited 727d 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 😱

727d ago
Michiel1989727d ago

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