This guy sure knows how to hype a game - instead of prompting why our game is going to be awesome, lets explain why all the competition is sh*t

1. Halo is bullsh*t
2. Modern Warfare 2 was an immense disappointment
3. Better graphics than Killzone 2

Whats he gonna say next, MGS4's storyline wasn't quite in depth enough

Now you're just being silly. The only thing wrong with MGS4 is not enough cutscenes.

Interestingly the question was asked RE KZ2 AND Uncharted 2 and GoWIII yet he chose to compare Crysis 2 to the oldest of those 3 games. I guess he might claim that KZ2 is the graphical king out of those 3 games, but I think he'd have a hard time coming off as convincing vs. GoWIII at least.

But what he really needs to do is slam the actual competition, which isn't any particular game, but rather the alternate and current gold standard licenced game engine, being the Unreal Engine. Now if/when he calls Gears 1 and 2 last gen jag fests and the best that UE3 can put out then we'll know the real war of words has started. Everything else is just blowing smoke.

Very good points, (especially the MGS one :) ) What I was really coming at though is that they are three arguably bold claims



Pathetic Earthlings 

god of war 3 isn't really that impressive if you consider the fact that it's doing the same thing as past games in the series from technical standpoint. it may impress some that really don't know jag about games but in reality it's very last gen type of game - similar to first bioshock or call of duty series. bioshock looked great but only because of art and level design other than that it's not really that good looking game. Call of Duty games could probably run on past gen consoles, but the use of filters and good level design hide very poor and old tech.



waron the GOW fans will destroy you for saying that, lol, GOW III is amazing and I agree it does some very familiar things but, it looks totally awesome:):)
OT: I agree with the things they have said about MW2 and Halo, but seriously I will have to wait and see how it looks and performs on my PS3 before saying crysis 2 is better than Killzone 2, I am glad we have a proper multi-platform engine now:):)



it's the future of handheld

PS VITA = LIFE

The official Vita thread http://gamrconnect.vgchartz.com/thread.php?id=130023&page=1

i dont think the consol vertion will look as good as he is saying. even if its does sony hav proven on a ridiculas number of time that they are the masters of beating there own consols limit. kinda like god of war on ps2. though im all up for an awesome looking game i dont think its a very good idea to bash 3 games that together acumilate around 30,000,000 units in sales. thats salot of people to piss off lol

this guy.... wow. what a mouth.

I really hope you're being sarcastic, I'd hope you of all people would read the actual quote and see that it's just being twisted to start a flamewar, in the same way his Halo quote was.

I agree its be being twisted... our own front page news article was terrible.  The spin on the words was way out of line and he didnt actually say he thought halo was bullshit, it also didnt mention the MW2 or Killzone2 comments... strange that.

However, he needs to be a little careful.  This will happen when you pass opinion, however inert, on other peoples games.  Especially 2 of the biggest games around and a fanboy favourite like killzone.

Look @ the two bolded....ironic.



So much smack im suprised the guy has'nt O.D.ed. Well he is doing his job, got everyone aboard the good ship Crysis2 hype



 

 assumption is the mother of all f**k ups

that's why i sad that God of War 3 is great in art and level design but technically is below average.
