*sigh* watched those vids, and I'm still not impressed = I mean to put all that work into the lighting and engines yet visually it doesn't please and the inherent flaw with console shooters is seen many times in those videos where it's not pinpoint accurate and the guy misses a lot of clear shots which should have been easy headshots...

Enough negativity! The graphics are awesome, and you know it!

First God of War III, now this!

Why did you get a PS3 at all?

 

 

Uhm maybe because there's more then two games on PS3?  Or is "PS3 has no games!" confirmed? 

Really dude I said the engines had a lot of work put into them, they're pulling a lot out of the PS3 but the art direction is God awful to me... not to mention if the story and voice actors are as very B movie-ish as they were in the first one I'll be dying laughing during each story scene... now on the God of War deal the art is good the voice actors are up to snuff if you ask me it's just the story and the game itself...

But really it annoys me that I can view displeasure in a Wii game and no Nintendo fan will ask me "why did you get a Wii?" yet I don't like a "AAA" PS3 game and someone gets upset... really I dislike talking to a lot of Sony fans for this very reason, it's hard to voice displeasure without them making an outlandish statement... now that may not be your intention, but you've made a few claims before fitting this, IE "Twes hating Sony", there's been a lot of ranting and whining lately and if you're this Sony fan you are you should be pleased that I got a PS3 and should at least keep an open mind that I have my personal tastes...

We are more streamlined. We have a few games that we hype at any given time, God of War III and Killzone 2 are two of them. I suppose you don't like Uncharted either?

Even Zen, pretty much the biggest GoW hater on this site, agrees that the story, characters and scale are awesome. He just doesn't like the gameplay. I actually hate the hack and slash genre, but God of War is one of my favourite series.

I was semi-joking about Twesterm hating Sony, but he does happen to hate many of the things that a lot of people like, like Uncharted and FF7, while hating some things that most people hate, like Home.

It's just...contemplating that anybody can't be hyped for this game...it confuses me. If you like FPS, you owe it to yourself to get this game. But I'm guessing you don't, and that's understandable.

But seriously, you can't deny that these graphics are awesome. Of course it pleases visually! Those shots would not have been headshots, and I don't like the use of the phrase "The inherent flaw with console shooters". That suggests that all console shooters are bad, and Halo says hi.

 

What do you mean "more streamlined"?  And who is "we" are you on Sony's PR staff or something?  Otherwise I don't see why you need to hype anything for them...

And I haven't played Uncharted yet... it looks beautiful, and it's from Naughty Dog which made one of the best games on PS2 Jak and Daxter so I have trust in them.

I don't care what Zen thinks of GoW really... why do I have to agree on a matter of opinion just cause someone else likes it?  Much like you trying to tell me to like Killzone 2...

If you were joking then why post multiple times trying to give proof... doesn't seem like joking...

I do like shooters, but since shooters are a generic dime a dozen it has to do something special, like control well, and exceptional story (like I said Killzone 1 was like a B movie and so far KZ2 hasn't shown anything better) have good weapons, do something different, and fun/balanced gameplay.  Graphics are the least of these things...

I can deny it if I'm not pleased with the art/style they're using which I have and do... and I keep saying they're getting a lot out of the PS3 doesn't mean it's visually pleasing it just means it's running a good engine... and there is a major flaw in console shooters... which is the time it takes to aim and aim accurately... some people don't mind, lots of console only gamers don't mind, and I didn't either until I started playing PC and from that point on rarely liked a console FPS game cause of the controls alone, then Wii came along and has made dual analog for FPS out dated... so even those that say they really just like to sit down and relax to play FPS games can play with comfort and great control.  And Halo was shown up by Call of Duty 4 by a long shot... Halo was decent but story and gameplay wise nothing special, there's a reason it never took off on PC... the graphics, gameplay, and weapons were outdated when it came out on PC...

^Very well, it's your opinion. And by "we" I meant Sony fanboys, and yes we feel the desire to hype things, it's just how we are. MGS4, LBP, Haze, Lair...

@Kantor

Then why even ask me "why did you even get a PS3?" Isn't it obvious I got it to play games? Cause you know that's what most people here like to do... and some of us don't fall on any company lines just like all games and any good game they can get their hands on but don't like a game cause of the company publishing it... there's no reason to follow a company so loyally cause to them you're a profit nothing else...

Take your trolling elsewhere it's not wanted here.

Anyway: MERRY CHRISTMAS everybody! And think Killzone 2 is ONLY 2 months away. My goodness, it feels like an eternity since they showed that first CGI in 2005. Now it all gets fully judged in just 2 months. I can't wait!

Trolling my ass. Too bad you can't take any negative view on your god. I don't know in which way you see it as your god, but it seems you do.

I posted what I did because of the topic of this thread. Why put the word superior when it's just your opinion? Since an 'opinion' was posted on the topic, I came and posted my 'opinion' on the matter. I don't find KZ2's graphics any better than anything else out there. If the topic was something like KZ2's great graphics, then I wouldn't come here, because I think the graphics in this games are great. But superior? Superior than what I've seen? No... sorry...

Opinions in subject = opinions in answers and learn to live with it. Try not to be so close headed and see other peoples opinions on the subject.

 



This game's gonna be huge, but I don't really like its graphics and global design :/ Too grey, too badass. I prefer R2 global design, more colour, more original.

But My bro will buy it, so I'll give it a try ... for trophies :D Maybe I'll love this game afterall, who knows (even If I think the first one was pretty average).

I want to scream every time somebody says this.

LOW BUDGET 2D PLATFORMER WHERE YOU PLAY AS A SACK =/= HIGH BUDGET GRAPHICALLY STUNNING FPS!

All games are not created equal! Comparing KZ2 to LBP is so illogical, and so widespread, that I'm going to make a thread about it!

Frick I want this game. I just hope I can get the R2 10 000 kills trophy before this comes out or I may never get it. :p
