Who said MW2 looks better than KZ2 so I know to ignore them in the future?

a few 360 owners so they can "prove" that the 360 has the edge over the ps3 because everyone says MW2 looks better on the 360



Nobody's perfect. I aint nobody!!!

Killzone 2. its not a fps. it a FIRST PERSON WAR SIMULATOR!!!! ..The true PLAYSTATION 3 launch date and market dominations is SEP 1st

Around the Network

This is kind of a silly thread.

KZ2 is basically unbeatable, with regards to technical quality, by any cross-platform title. Even as an exclusive, its like that only a few titles, including a would-be Killzone 3, will surpass it.

MW2 is *amazing* in that it is cross-platform (!), thus sacrificing many visual issues to the "lowest common denominator" of the two HD consoles, and it still looks awesome. It doesn't best KZ2 in terms of visuals, however. -- anyone who says otherwise hasn't actually played both, or is wearing heavily tinted fanboy goggles.

If IW was willing to drop the framerate of MW2 to 30 fps, and improved upon a bunch of their visual tech, then we *might* have a decent comparison between it and KZ2. As is though, its no contest, on a frame-by-frame basis, or even in motion, despite the framerate differences.

HAHAHA! The internetz IS serious business!

Apparently so.



Rockstar: Announce Bully 2 already and make gamers proud!

Kojima: Come out with Project S already!

Looking at your screenshots KZ2 does not shit all over MW2. KZ2 may slightly look better but the gun models in MW2 look better. But judging from your comments you believe anything exclusive to PS3 is godlike so there is no reason to even comment on this thread. I can't wait to see your response to what I'm typing now.
I'm assuming the reason you made this thread was to try to make 360 owners jealous? Unfortunately we aren't. We have the best shooters. You can go on about graphics all day if you like but it doesn't make it a better game. I'm sure Killzone has its moments but compared to MW2 it is garbage. The Halo series is better and yes so is Gears of War.
So please from this day forward save your PS3 arguments for areas where it shines. Games like MGS4, Uncharted, and GOW3 for instance. Leave the FPS's for the big boys on the 360 side of things. The 360 was built from the ground up for FPS's starting with the controller.

Oh no you didnt

 

If you looked at another thread of mine then you would se that shooters are not at the top of my playing lists. Plus how dare you make such comments about me. I am glorious lol

 

On a true though you are the one ebing a fanboy i have just put a graphics comp together. Not a gameplay comp or what system is better comp. Just a graphics one. So i really dont see what point you are trying to make or your problem. Unless you are pissed of that KZ2 an almost year old game looks better then the glorious MW 2 on both HD consoles.

 

Oh yh i'm trying to make 360 owners jealous by comparing a multiplat with an exclusive. And remember your the one who said it not me so i am curious as to whats your motive behind this post

But to say "it's no contest." shows your own bias as well. As I stated earlier, I prefer the look of Call of Duty over Killzone 2, it's a personal preference thing. My minds eye says "This looks better" because I like the environments, set peices and color palatte more. It's completely subjective. Yes, the textures are better, the particle effects are better, the AA is better in Killzone 2, but that doesn't mean that it will "look better" to everyone. For me Killzone 2 was beaten already by Resistance 2 and Uncharted 1 on the PS3 and Gears 2 on the 360, because I like them better. You can't say something like the bolded above and then talk about other people's "fanboy goggles" without admitting that you yourself are looking through Sony colored glasses.

That thread was about MW2 winning the showdown according to the digital foundry.  One sentence in it was about MW2 being better looking then KZ2.

Come on dude, let's not be so insecure about stuff...who cares if someone thinks Game A looks better than Game B?  Honestly?  HOW does it affect your enjoyment of said game or your system of choice?

i have a ps3 and 360, so i have played mw2 on both systems, 360 IS NOT BETTER THEN THE PS3 ON MW2, if anything the ps3 looks better, the 360 fans want the 360 to have better graphics so bad there biased, im not i have both play both and like both. as for killzone 2, sorry it still is the graphic king of fps on a console. mw2 looks great but not quit there., bad company 2 with the frostbit engine on steroids will look better then mw2.

The 360 version of MW2 has better lighting. I played them both before I bought them. The graphics are of course similar because its a port.

It doesnt i just like graphics thread no matter what console is winning. Plus when people are saying MW 2 is better then KZ2 graphics then i want to see why.

 

So the best thing to do is put them side by side and have a look. Then make you own decision on what you think looks better then see if people agree with you or not.

 

Thats all

Are you serious?

That's not even within the realm of opinion. Did you play R2 on a 50 inch full HD TV and KZ2 on a 1980 10" monitor or something?
