Forums - Gaming - Killzone 2 surpasses Crysis

No, no it doesn't. I think even at the end of the PS3/360 generation games are going to be struggling to match crysis. Funnily by then the cost of a pc that can run crysis on the highest settings will have massively fallen.

Not only does crysis look better, it does so in a more interactive and bigger world. It wins in basically every way. The only argument you could make is KZ2 has a better style. But then you are arguing realistic for crysis against realistic covered in grey for KZ2.



Turkish says and I'm allowed to quote that: Uncharted 3 and God Of War 3 look better than Unreal Engine 4 games will or the tech demo does. Also the Naughty Dog PS3 ENGINE PLAYS better than the UE4 ENGINE.

NOT!



I will just quickly point out that that website has an established history of Sony-leaning articles. To the point you have to wonder if they have any idea what's actually going on in the world of gaming.

Once again I'll simply state that Killzone 2 looks like a marginal graphical improvement on Gears of War 2, which itself looks nothing like as good as Crysis.

At the end of the day Sony has spent anywhere between $60-100 million on a game on ostensibly the most powerful console (even if the difference over the Xbox 360 is marginal) over the course of four years with work spanning at least three studios and they STILL fall FAR short of Crysis.

Console's haven't peaked (none of them), but it's fair to say Crysis is safe.



starcraft - Playing Games = FUN, Talking about Games = SERIOUS

Why compare a closed platform to the pc , what is the "pc" exactly . There is no universal standard , it's an unlimitedly open platform !

let's appreciate k2 for what it is and leave the pc outta this.

You've lost your mind... on a purly technical aspect KZ2 doesn't even come close to touching Crysis at it's highest. And Crysis actually has color... amazing

@selnor^^^says the guy that said farcry 2 is the best looking game of 08.yea you shouldn't be trusted with graphics selnor.

effects are top notch,,lightning,particle effects,explosion effects but I think crysis technically looks better on ultra high.art style are so different that you can't compare them

You obviously dont read the forums very well or often. I have NEVER given Far Cry 2 best graphics of 2008. In fact that award from me goes to Fable 2 of which I explained why.

You refer to earlier in 2008 when I was impressed by Far Cry 2's graphics.

Just get over it. Not everyone has to agree with you.

IMO Heavy Rain, Alan Wake and Kingdom Under Fire 2 all are graphically more impressive than KZ2.

 



No way......KZ2 looks very good graphically, probably the best on any console so far. But it is still way behind Crysis.....Period!



How dare PS3 fanboy post such non-sens... it is only worth SONY DF sh*t...



 

Evan Wells (Uncharted 2): I think the differences that you see between any two games has much more to do with the developer than whether it’s on the Xbox or PS3.

Frankly, I don't much care. Of course Crysis was going to be surpassed sooner or later. Such is the way of the photorealism gimmick: you get surpassed within six months or so. Crysis lasted unusually long at a full year, but it doesn't really matter all that much now; it's done. When that happens to a game -and it is when, not if- the graphics suddenly become "dated," and if the graphics were propping the game up, it starts to fail.

No other graphical style suffers this problem. It's unique to photorealism, because that's the only style that's so dependent on console tech anymore. Just saying.



Complexity is not depth. Machismo is not maturity. Obsession is not dedication. Tedium is not challenge. Support gaming: support the Wii.

What do I hate about modern gaming? I hate tedium replacing challenge, complexity replacing depth, and domination replacing entertainment. I hate the outsourcing of mechanics to physics textbooks, art direction to photocopiers, and story to cheap Hollywood screenwriters. I hate the confusion of obsession with dedication, style with substance, new with gimmicky, old with obsolete, new with evolutionary, and old with time-tested.
There is much to hate about modern gaming. That is why I support the Wii.
