Wow, this is like the white to contrast the black of all the BS out there. It feels extremely fair and everything stated makes perfect sense to me.

 

I am glad you enjoyed it! I had a rough day and decided to relax myself by writing this out.

In many ways Gears of War 2 has jarring visuals, whilst with Killzone 2 (From my beta experience) everything just fitted together so nicely that I forgot about them, it was almost creepy how immersive that was for me.

Before anyone pops up here with the Gifs, the game really does excel at animation and physics, and in a way it distinguishes itself more with those than in any technical brilliance one could glean from a stationary shot.
