I only posted Darks comments. I have never once quoted anyone else. Read the thread. They are all his posts. Jesus Christ. Your trying to cherrypick Artstyle here now as technical analysis? Like I said theres more to come from him. They are chewing him up and spitting him out. They are again asking about the Ryse comment being better than all other launch games. Awaiting another reply.

Poor guy shuldnt have tried to keep fanboys happy. LOL.


according to this comment you killed any credibility the guys has for making a objective judgment about which game looks better. if he does make these calls to make fanboys happy then he doesnt make them based on the truth and on what game looks better. therefor his objectove opinion is invalid according to you. so when he does say ryse is the best looking game (which he doesnt btw) but even if he did, it doesnt matter, because he just said it to make fanboys happy. so you taking his words doesnt mean shit, because you just questions his credibility. congrats, you just shot down your own argument and have no legs to stand on what so ever to claim that ryse is the best looking game between the two. 

He does say Ryse. In the official article posted on DF.

But after being attacked by fans he said Killzone. Then later reveals he Artistically prefers Killzone.

The debate between him and them is not over yet. Waiting on his reply.

but he only makes his discisions to please fanboys. thats what YOU said. so it doesnt matter now, does it?

dude you killed your own argument, give it a rest. 

I was talking about the thread on gaf. As far as Im aware the Articles on DF are a Technical analysis. Whereas in the forum he gives alot of opinion and aethestic reasons.

Are you serious? What about the talk about Ryse being a boring game he cannot recommend to others? That isn't opinion based? It's in the same article you seem to weigh so heavily lmao.

What the hell are you idiots jabbering about?

Game of the Year is basically between GTA V and Super Mario 3D Land

All your other jibber jabber is kind of pointless



Unbelievable that so many people could actually put any weight on the opinion of a single individual.

He's nobody. People realize the comparison is largely subjective, right? The only reason why anyone would place any value on a single individual's opinion is because it supports their own biases.

Do you guys really have nothing else to do than fighting for something that stupid? Like Xenostar posted you guys are fighting about witch shit looks better. I report this thread for making gamers look like a pathetic group of people.


I would like to echo an echo here as well.  This isn't even a pissing contest.  It's more like 3rd graders kicking pebbles at each other.  I've mentioned that I'm looking forward to Ryse more times than Killzone, but you're not going to catch me in one of these insecure petty arguments.  What I have expressed in the past is that some of you need to give up gaming as a hobby because obviously it's not gaming that's giving you joy.  It's the need to satisfy that petty urge that precedes the enjoyment of games.  You place your allegiance for one company over gaming and base everything from that.  And that disqualifies you as a gamer.  Simple.

bullshit. you made this thread about something he said on gaf. so when you think its pro ryse post it. when its pro killzone, state its just an opinion and has no merit. again, bullshit. 

I did make this thread about his Gaf posting shannanigans. Of which hes yoyo'd more than Katie Prices knickers. Hes dallying his opinion around depending on who he is talking to there.

He has been asked for clarity on why the DF article clearly says Ryse >> All in their analysis. He hasnt commented yet on this.

Im talking about its technical analysis. I was under the impression DF vs is always a technical analysis of the game engine and its visuals. Its not a review is it?

do you think people are stupid enough to believe this nonesense you say or do you just dont know how to support your own arguement? you didnt make this thread to talk about "gaf posting shannanigans". you made it to talk about how the DF writer supposably back tracks his killzone comment. you know its pretty obvious because your OP and tittle talk about it. and nothing in them mention "gaf shannanigans".  look at your own fucking posts. your not talking about gaf shannanigans. you are talking about him and his comments, then you shoot them down and his credibility. pretty much destroying your own arguement. seriously give it a rest and dont embarrass yourself even more.

I don't know about you, but when someone closes a "technical analysis" with this:
"However, despite all the technological finery on offer, the limited and repetitive gameplay make Ryse difficult to actually recommend as a prospective purchase. That said, if you really want a taste of what we can expect from the next generation of consoles, Ryse towers over the rest."

It generally comes across as more or less an opinion based article. (That's not to take away anything from the analysis parts because they are obviously there).
But his comment on GAF was that he could see both at the top. And aestethics don't do that alone. The technology of both is more or less even. But the only reason he states Killzone has the nod is probably mostly due to the aesthetics. One has to atleast assume they are tied somewhat. (Which once again is odd since Ryse is less open).

And we still have the "VS Shadow Fall" article to go. I don't think he's going to post in that GAF thread really. It seems pretty dead.



He backtracked because he got hounded. I don't think he mistyped when he said Killzone was more impressive. Killzone has much more going on, it's obviously more impressive imo. This discussion is impossible though, it just becomes fanboy wars because of exclusivity.
