Yep, they remind me of Guerrilla Games with Killzone franchise. Although as stated by CGI this topic is about graphics and shiny shaders. 

The problem with Guerilla Games is that they actually listened to the fans. When Killzone 2 was created they had the recipe for a masterpiece that was different and all their own. Fans destroyed that because everyone was putting it up against Halo.

I'd actually contend that fan feedback was what allowed KZ3 to break free of the problems that plagued KZ2, but that's veering off topic a bit.


KZ was veering closer and closer into COD territory. Everyone wanted a system closer to the most popular game. The gameplay got faster, weapon weight dropped and it god more arcadey and less about being in and of itself, but I'll say this. That kind of helped the multiplayer.  Taking the Crysis open route with Killzone was also a mistake. They should've left it as a coordor shooter.

I agree with you regarding the bold.

I liked that KZ3 controlled more tightly though, I felt less like I was fighting the controls. The greater visual and gameplay variety also kept me more engaged.

Bringing it back to the graphics discussion, if they make a second PS4 Killzone as they did on PS3, it should at least look incredible, now that Guerilla's had a lot of experience with the hardware.

Im just glad Guerilla is working on a new IP. It's about time. A new policy needs to be created.

On that we are definitely in agreement.

So minimum is X1's gpu and recommended is PS4's gpu? That has to be a joke from someone at Crytek.

LOL it pretty much sums up this generation.  Minimum vs recommended specs.



Prediction for console Lifetime sales:

Wii:100-120 million, PS3:80-110 million, 360:70-100 million

[Prediction Made 11/5/2009]

3DS: 65m, PSV: 22m, Wii U: 18-22m, PS4: 80-120m, X1: 35-55m

I gauruntee the PS5 comes out after only 5-6 years after the launch of the PS4.

well I can do above recommended. I need a better video card though. 2Gb is not going to carry me any longer for what it looks...

I heard the same thing about Heavy Rain and Beyond: Two Souls. The latter is the best game I've ever played.

Really?! Wow, that's the first I've heard someone like it that much!

Yup, really. It would take me an hour to explain exactly why I love it so much but since this is not the topic discussed, I'll only say that the incredible voice acting and terrific graphics make this game the closest thing to reality I have ever experienced. I remember crying at moments because I felt something for the characters. I rarely get that with other video games because they feel like video games. This felt real.

The scene at the party when people started bullying her was pretty simple yet still the best part of any video game for me. It all felt so natural. The characters move naturally, their conversations make sense and the whole thing made me feel that I was there.

Haha yeah, to bad most multi platform games are designed for the minimum specs though...

My poor 660ti probably won't do the best, but it should manage. I wanted to upgrade but I decided to wait an extra year. Hopefully the next set of cards is a bigger step forward.

My rig was probably outdated when I bought it four years ago. The game looks great on PC but I'm just going to have to settle for the Xbox version.
