Have only played the Crysis 2 Demo as not out here yet. But based on the PC one i think it looks better graphics wise then KZ3. I think he makes a good point about Killzone 3 being more a coridor shooter while Crysis 2 being open world. Because of that more things are going on. In a game like KZ3 the things they choose for you to see on the linear path are outstanding. They look amazing. But in Crysis 2 the graphics are great everywhere. The world is a lot bigger and wherever you decide to head off to every place looks great. So because in Crysis 2 the place is a lot bigger and you have more freedom to go where you want and do what you want those graphics impress me more. If Crytek chose to concentrate only on selected areas and made it linear no doubt it would of looked even better.

I was not a fan of KZ3 overall though. Great graphics don't make a great game. Crysis was an awesome game with some memorable gaming moments, i hope Crysis 2 has just as good story and gameplay as its graphics.

A PC Crysis 2 vs Killzone 3 comparison is completely void, because one of them is obviously on dynamic hardware (even though Killzone 3 must be mighty impressive to even be considered in the same vein as PC titles).


Yeah obviously can't compare it overall.

But my pc is actually pretty old now. Had it longer then my PS3. And when i bought my PS3 the price was pretty similar to what i paid to build the PC. So i was basing how the graphics looked on my pc which as mentioned is older then my PS3. So i imagine someone with a new kick ass PC will see a huge difference between Crysis 2 and Killzone 3's graphics. Which would not be that impressive imo.

But as i said graphics are all good but if the gameplay sucks and the story is awful then the graphics won't save it from being an average game. In my view that is what happened with KZ3. The game had great graphics but everything else was pretty average. I am not bothered one bit by which game has the best graphics, i care about what game is the most fun to play. Let's hope Crysis 2 plays better then KZ3!
