LOL!

I had no idea about the 300+ unique light sources. Is that really true? If so, a game like Gears, how many does that use?


Still, both are very good games.

Yes it is true. According to the included article, the average game uses 4 light sources.  The Killzone engine uses deferred rendering that enables GG to use hundreds of unique light sources.  The lighting and the cinematic feel of the game are 2 things that should really stand out when you play it.

Yes, GeoW2 is a very good game.  It is just a flawed idea that you can compare a TPS to a FPS, or cherry-pick screens from a retail release and compare them to a demo.

 

I agree, but sadly it isn't going to stop anytime soon.
