It begins.

 

[bud]

Looks awesome! IGN was overreacting though, it looks nowhere near to the 2005 trailer.
Looks about the same as Gears IMO.

in terms of feel and intensity it does look pretty close to the cg trailer. they kinda remade the cg trailer by having that airship explode mid-air etc.

 

[Xrenity]

Gametrailers to the rescue \o/

Now in HD

LTTP... that was insane.

I guess the first pic was in fact meant to mislead us :lol

 

[Karma Kramer]

I think you are over-exaggerating how bad the textures are. The only bad textures I saw were the ones left after the pillars were destroyed, and considering that it was the result of dynamic destruction I can forgive it. Most of the other textures looked as good asCoD 4's, but below Gears. Although there alot of other things that determine how good a game looks beside textures.

Well when I first saw the trailer I was stunned how everything looked so good...

So when I went to look at those screens I was surprised how crappy the textures looked compared to the trailer... I didn't get it at first... and then I realized that it is the post processing effects that hide a lot of what you see in the stills.

 

[DenogginizerOS]

Having just watched the trailer on GameTrailers, all I can say is I am happier than tornado in a trailer park for buying a PS3. I am not sure how it will turn out when it is complete, but the trailer certainly gives a lot of good feelings about the game and the system and I think this new generation just saw that Sony isn't out of this war at all.

 

[Ranger X]

I'll have the HD version online in about 15 minutes. Sorry about the delay.

I will download your superiorzorg MP4 encoding tonight as soon as i get back from work.
tks again!

 

[J-Rzez]

Ok buddy.

There is not that much going on in the backgrounds, I have no idea what you guys are talking about. Once you get past the scripted beginning, all it shows is a few run of the mill firefights, and a couple kill shots.

The graphics look great, but aside from smoke in the distance, some semi destructible environment objects and maybe some lightning here and there, nothing is really going on in the bg.

Get some sleep dude, you need to carry on the good fight tomorrow, keeping Sony fans in check... Cause if you don't stop them, the world as we know it, will end...

 

[Sean]

Looks nice, pretty impressive. It doesn't exceed the CG trailer like Sony and Guerilla have been hyping, but it captures the mood of it pretty well.

As has been said, the textures are kinda weak but the post-processing (motion blur, grain filter, etc) mask a lot of the issues with it.

 

[Yoboman]

The usual.

Aren't we supposed to have one every night for E3? When does that begin?

and Thanks BlimBlim

 

[ChryZ]

Okay and all this is a late 1st gen title ... now imagine the crazy shit we'll see in 3-4 years!

 

[devilscallmedad]

So what's GAF's final opinion, COD4 or Killzone 2? ( graphically ofcourse )


Edit: I think there is a 1up yours today.

 

[TGateKeeper]

wow I can't believe sony actually delivered. impressive!

 

[TheDarkKnight774]

I just copied the HD MP4 version onto my PS3 and booted it up (my computer couldn't handle it..and thanks PSP/Flash Duo). OMG OMG

I thought the trailer was great before in the SD versions on the computer. But watching it on the 50" HD TV running all silky smooth and detailed. DAMN that looked good!!

 

[WarLox]

I just watched... and I think it looks horrible.. the textures looked so bland and washed out... and I didn't expect it to be so closed in... sigh...

This is actually pretty clever IMO, and it shows us how important post-processing really is in next-gen games.

Its really hard to say but perhaps without the post-processing CoD4 would look much better.

 

[f@luS]

So what's GAF's final opinion, COD4 or Killzone 2? ( graphically ofcourse )

Visual : KZ 2
Tech : KZ2 by a lot ( so many stuff going on and effect)

Though COD 4 is really really good looking

 

[manxor]

So what's GAF's final opinion, COD4 or Killzone 2? ( graphically ofcourse )

Killzone 2, 30fps + Motion Blur + Film Grain = FILMIC LOOK WIN!

 

[AAK]

If this won't sell the PS3, nothing will

 

[Yoboman]

Killzone 2. Not a competition IMO

It's like the difference between Gears and Resistance

 

[fr4nz]

Trailer is up on the european mirrors:
http://www.gamersyde.com/news_4581_en.html
US Mirror will be updated in 15 minutes at best.

sweeeet ! thx.

 

[Geezer]

It's encoded at 60fps (supposedly, the game is running at that framerate part of the time).

That will beat the living crap out of most PC's.



Do you have a PS3? I'm sure it runs fine on there (CELL smokes PC's for video).

It runs perfectly on the PS3

 

[Spoo]

Edit: I think there is a 1up yours today.

I think CoD4 looks absolutely incredible. I really do.

But nobody thought what Killzone has done was doable (except for us hardcores ), so, of course, I'm going with KZ. All the way.

Fitting.

You need a good ****ing slap in face.

 

[robertsan21]

just saw the HD version !


OMG this is soo good its hard to understand that its actual gameplay!

Sony are the kings of consoles and they know how to create hype,MS conference was boring and not exiting at all, not the part that I watched atleast.

I think Sony will show us some amazing stuff in a few hours time and they will hype the shit out of PS3 and they are right in doing so!

Now where is the nearest store, I want a PS3!

 

[RubxQub]

Oh yeah...that's nice...

Awesome trailer!

 

[VonGak!]

This is actually pretty clever IMO, and it shows us how important post-processing really is in next-gen games.

Its really hard to say but perhaps without the post-processing CoD4 would look much better.

My KillZone DVD got scratched so the grain filter no longer works and believe it hide a lot.

I guess that's the difference between good and better developers, the same goes for MGS games.

 

[Joates]

Looking the same as Gears + much more things on screen + dynamic lightning + much bigger place to fight + much better animations .
Impressive

Well, neither of these things were shown in the trailer, the others are arguable I guess (dynamic lighting...?), so I dont know what youre basing this off of.

Get some sleep dude, you need to carry on the good fight tomorrow, keeping Sony fans in check... Cause if you don't stop them, the world as we know it, will end...

This is true, rest assured, while I tend to side with MS, the xbox fanboys can be just as bad, I just usually leave those counter-arguements up to the Sony camp.

Edit: Besides, tomorrow I will get a very late start, as I am actually going outside for the majority of the day. Cant wait to see this migrate over to the Sony Conference Thread :lol

 

[K.Jack]

for your own good. BAIL OUT.

 

[FightyF]

I think it looks fine too

If it got any sharper they'd be jarring. It's like what Kojima said about "dirtying" the visuals up. He talked about expressly not having high res assets everywhere because then it starts to look like more and more like a videogame

No, they wouldn't anymore jarring as they are now.

Karma Kramer: I don't know if you played Condemned, but it was one of the first games (disregarding Silent Hill on the PSX, and the Xbox games that used it sparingly), to really push the grain effect to end up with a great gritty look to the game.

Sony will need a hell of a lot more than just Killzone in they want the PS3 to get back into the console race.

 

[monkeylite]

Brain splatter awesomeness!

Gametrailers just posted the HD trailer:

WMV (63.8MB)

MOV (67.9MB)

Enjoy!

 

[DieH@rd]

And this is PRE-ALPHA BUILD...

 

[Kinan]

Ok, motherh tracker continue reporting:

Mother, is that Rico on the drop ship giving orders?

Indeed it is.


Seb Downie - QA Manager - Guerrilla Games

Facial animations should be getting tweaked before release. They are a tough thing to get right on the first try.


Seb Downie - QA Manager - Guerrilla Games

I can't really talk about MP too much, but it should be a lot bigger (than in killzone). As for "better" I do hope so.


Seb Downie - QA Manager - Guerrilla Games

There has been a lot of mo-capping for the sequences and cutscenes.

[nofi]

Sony will need a hell of a lot more than just Killzone in they want the PS3 to get back into the console race.

Like a price cut, MGS 4, Gran Turismo 5 and Wipeout?

I'll let them know.

 

[The Jason]

hmm

 

[Yoboman]

Sony will need a hell of a lot more than just Killzone in they want the PS3 to get back into the console race.

I think they should drop the $600 pricetag and give us a new MGS, FF, Gran Turismo and some great new IPs. I dunno if they can do it, but they might!

 

[Joates]

And this is PRE-ALPHA BUILD...

You know what the best thing about that is?

1up alludes to that fact in their preview when comparing to Gears and people are still going batshit insane over it :lol

Pretty much what people expected. But I'd still like to see the explosions improved but that's more a question about adding more filters (me think).

Well like I said on the IRC channel, the explosions and general fire effects will probably be improved later, much like Lair.

 

[Gantz]

Looks decent. The character models look terrible though.

 

[ToyMachine228]

The trailer's pretty good. Get the Blackhawk Down feel from it. If this was the first game in the series it'd be a little easier to get hyped though. Everytime I look at it and get excited my feelings are held in by thoughts of the original.

 

[Falch]

Any word on a releasedate?

 

[Joates]

1up is has one up its own ass, as do you my friend. move on. jeez

Please be coherent in countering, it really helps improve the value of your post.

Also, itd be boring if I just moved along, if you think Im wrong, just say so (saying why wouldnt hurt either, but I know thats a lot to ask.)

 

[ThePeter]

I need reactions!
Donde esta de la 1-up-yours?
porque??!
