Forums - Gaming Discussion - Sony says PS3 only console powerful enough for Killzone 2

CMoney on 20 January 2009

Thank you sony. Once again you have created the ultimate spin, and unleashed it upon the world. Maybe this time it will work and actually move a few consoles off shelves. It is 2009 , but the same old sony. Repeating the same garbage PR from 2 years ago won't save them this generation.

Of course PS3 is the only console powerful enough for Killzone 2! You would have to put the power of a Blu Ray player in the 360 so it could read the disc. Duh!

@11ht11: The PC isn't a console, it's a PC.

OT: Yeah, it probably is. Note that he didn't say it was the only console capable of handling a game like Killzone 2, just the only console capable of handling Killzone 2. Probably true, because it's been optimised for the PS3 hardware, to use more processor power and less GPU...or something.

If you do not believe it, just buy the game and try to run it on your XBox 360 :)

Looks like sony needed tp take some airtime away from Aaron Greenberg. It was bad to let M$ do all the PR.

I have to say it's true, Deffered rendering is just suited to the PS3, but thats no to say Killzone couldn't be done on the 360 or wii, cuz it could, it's just a matter of what needs to be changed to achive it, and weather or not it would be the same game, so really the as then game stands with out any modifications, the PS3 is trully the only console powerful enough to run Killzone 2.

Sony's right though, you couldn't play KZ2 on the Wii because the graphics on the Wii aren't capable of making a game in HD AND you can't play it on the 360 because the 360 controller doesn't have tilt functionality.

Therefore, the PS3 is indeed the only console that can play Killzone 2.

Winter 2006?  They showed a video at E3 2005.  The game has obviosly been worked on since before E3 2005.  Design discussions, architectural discussions, art discussions...video of representative gameplay doesn't just magically appear.
