"If the "rumor" is true, then the xenon is based on the cell. "
It's nothing more than a standard PPC chip with an extra core tacked on. A massive improvement from the outdated x86 chips used in the first Xbox but not even remotely similar to the PS3's Broadband Engine.
"Publishers know they r all fan boys and nub journalist"
It is funny to listen to them imply that anyone outside of Xbox fans are anxiously awaiting their opinion of Killzone 2.
Everyone can pretty much just write the Kotaku Killzone 2 review for themselves:
* Babble about hype * Some feint praise with some condescending talk of being happy for PS3 owners * Lots of irrelevant talk about Xbox and PC games * Yeah it looks 'prett...
Yep, downloaded it and deleted it. The game is meh.
It is bizarre to watch the gaming media try to hype this game. Change the name to something other than Resident Evil and it would be a forgettable 7 or 8/10.
"I'm surprised they didn't give it a 2/10 based on their previews."
GamesRadar dug their own credibility grave and have no one to blame but themselves.
Credibility is all you have when you are trying to get people to listen to your opinions on a game. GamesRadar has exactly zero credibility after their desperation to trash Killzone 2 was shown right with their own words.
Now they are in the position where you have to ask are you lying now or wh...
After their credibility got utterly destroyed by neogaf they must have decided to throw in the towel and go with the safe 9/10 and move on.
They must be pretty despondent at the flood of 9.5 and 10/10 reviews from all over the planet after they worked so hard to try to trash the game over the past couple of years.
Here's the thread were someone on neogaf ripped GamesRadar to shreds over their disgusting fanboyism over Killzone 2:
You write dumb articles like the silly article they are now backpedaling from you have no one to blame but yourself.
The servers are packed with gamers every single day and at all hours of the day and night. Sony and EA just blew everyone in the gaming world and press away with the gigantic EA Sports Complex a couple weeks ago. Sony is racking in money from the sales inside of Home. And massive amounts of new Spaces and features like game launching are said to be just about to be...
Dan Hsu at 1Up invented an AI 'award' just for the sake of trashing Killzone 2 after nothing more than a realtime graphics demo was shown and, surprise, gave it to Halo 3. ...
No one from Sony or GG ever made any claims about the original trailer running realtime. Never. Not once. A gaming site played a silly fanboy game of editing Jack Tretton talking about Resistance realtime at the show over the E3 trailer to make it look like Sony was claiming the Killzone 2 trailer was realtime.
This is obvious from the fact that Tretton speaks about 'Ted' confirming it to him. Ted is Te...
Saying Killzone 2 is better than Gears of War isn't saying much when even the most die hard foaming at the mouth Xbox fans in the gaming media rip on the game this much:
Hopefully the replies from the Home people on the Sony boards about game launching being the top priority is true and all the major online games allow clans to launch right out of their clubhouses together.
"There are some angry 360 fans there and their bitterness is like nectar to me."
The anger has been building for a long time now. They all thought they were going to reveling in the media eviscerating Sony when the real time Killzone 2 footage was revealed.
The don't seem to know what hit them. Sites like 1up, Gamesradar have been desperately trying to get enough garbage out in the minds of gamers about Killonze 2 that other Xbox fans in the gaming media wo...
"Uncharted 2 to set the bar higher than Killzone 2"
That should read:
Uncharted 2 to set the bar differently than Killzone 2.
Killzone 2 and Uncharted 2 use different rendering tech. Comparing SPU utilization level means nothing since they are doing different things under the hood.
Yeah, the Ballet of Death would have been more impressive but it probably isn't immediately clear what the hell you are watching if you aren't already following Killzone 2 and are at least already a console gamer.
My choice would have been the football theme they have now cut back and forth with the Ballet of Death footage and aria along with a little bit of the incredible Helgan speeches. Probably too much for such a short amount of time.
