I say wait until May/June before even thinking about making judgements. Right now it's all looked at through hype glasses. GTAIV got perfect 10s from numerous sites, had plenty of gif topics, rampant orgasms, and now it's frequently bagged as one of the biggest disapointments of 2008.

A game's greatness isn't judged from gifs from previews or even the reviews (though many a fanboys would differ on that one), it's based on the community and what they think of it after the hype has worn off. I'm buying this day 1 because I want some good multiplayer, but I'm not buying into the hype and juicing on myself over gifs. We'll see what people think of it come the end of the year.

@Kyliedog , Co op is supposed to patch in later ala Fable 2

I thought Killzone 2 looked better then Gears 2? This looks like Call of Duty 4: Killzone Edition :/

really ???

You would make me so happy with that :)

How can you even say that? Even at this small size and gif quality, the animations still look amazingly fluid and real.

...... ...............................................please tell me that is some kind of miss placed sarcasm, or a joke...

 Gameplay-wise. Obviously graphics are supperior to Call of Duty 4. I still hold to the fact that I can't see how this game looks better then Gears 2 though. Anybody who thinks so needs to go replay the giant sea monster scene.

It was real, I freaking swear that the entire sequence was a video of a living, breathing prehistoric creature. Theres no other explanation to how it looked so amazing.

HOWEVER(pay attention to me) I'm willing to only pass judgement upon it when I get it and see it for myself. My judgement up to this point is influenced only by what I have seen so far.

I don't think non-destructable enviornments are a step back - a map could be designed to have a certain play style, but if all the walls are just being blown up then you're basically taking that away. The parts I think that are taking it a step back is the lack of splitscreen/co-op.

I'll be pre-orderng from Gamestop to get a demo code on Feb 3rd. I reaaaally hope they let you play the level from the '05 trailer =p

Very nice gifs, I'm going to have to try and get the demo

@CGI
Sup man! Ive been chillin most of today. Besides posting in the forums I have been working on my side project game. Right now I am modeling a character within 3DS Max 9. Its coming along nicely.

@ Shadowblind

What?! You cannot see the much more detailed environments that actually have depth unlike Gears2 with smooth objects simply covered by a really good texture. Dynamic destructible environments.The most realistic animations I have ever seen in a FPS, gears are in no way comparable. You said COD4? WTF, this looks LIGHTYEARS better then COD4+5, no contest. Killzone's graphics are CG quality without loss.

If these gifs can't prove it to you go Youtube Killzone 2's opening cutscene.
