Killzone 2 has a lot of low resolution textures spruced up with specular/normal maps. If you can see past some of the technical wizardry the illusion doesn't hold up so well.

 

it is the best looking console game by far and nothing can change that fact.

 

Not to single you out, but I hear this a lot and it makes me laugh. When people say it is the best looking console game that is kinda like saying I'm the fastest runner in the Special Olympics one legged marathon. The big elefant in the room, the PC, is simply ignored.

If it was all about graphics the 360 and PS3 wouldn't even exist.

So yes it does look better than any other console game I've seen, but still far from impressive. Maybe in early 2007.

I am goign to have to agree with you.  I think KZ2 has some amazing graphics but the hype of clarity just didn't meet its expectations it was suppose to have.  But keepign the PC out for the console's sake I think it is amazing. I also had the same feeling with Halo 3 when it first came out.  It was suppose to be amazing in every stand.  I did not find its graphics that impressive.  Yet both games I can play for hours.  I will be interested to see what happsn int he next five years.
