Killzone 2 VS Gears of War 2 through the eyes of a programmer

Major props man for staying level headed throughout this entire thread.

As for Fallout 3, the game is very impressive. Have you checked it out yet?

I have also watched some videos on Killzone 2 and while it may not be confirmed (unless someone on the forums proves it) I have seen some things that hinted at a level or two that may contain barren woodland areas like those shown in that Fallout 3 picture.

It is understandable why the World looks like that though, in terms of "lack of vegetation", because from what I have read trees and plant life are unable to live in such conditions of high level radiation and environmental pollution. I did a quick google today and I read up on "Red Forest", it talks about how all tree and plant life close to the power plant there were unable to grow, the surrounding area is pretty much barren. I think there is an area in Equador with the same problem.

I would love to see Killzone 3 though return to the ISA home planet though, to see what GG can do in this regard. I had no idea Killzone 2 looked that good, I have the game sitting here in front of me and have not popped it on yet. Those screenshots you posted make me think that even with the technical issues the game had, there is no denying it looked great for the system it was released on.

Once again, great job with this thread.
