I remember the original Lost Planet looking good but I don't remember being blown away. Is my memory faulty, or why should we expect LP2 to suddenly be "OMG new standard for graphics"?

Terms like the KZ2 killer, and the new benchmark are being used to describe LP 2 all over the internet forums. It still has 1 year of development left. To be honest most of the internet has recieved LP 2 with open arms. Calling it simply stunning. And well it's definately amazing. It has by far the best explosions over any current game. Check out the smoke and balls of fire. Also the shockwaves on the vegetation. Nothing like that currently out. All this running with a huge boss and awesome detail. Very impressive.

 

 



Hopefully there aren't too many watery areas in the game because that stream did NOT impress. [edit: Cool boss though.]

My advice to fanboys: Brag about stuff that's true, not about stuff that's false. Predict stuff that's likely, not stuff that's unlikely. You will be happier, and we will be happier.

I have the most epic death scene ever in VGChartz Mafia.  Thanks WordsofWisdom!

1 year left to develop. That will likely have many added effects. But the rest is jaw dropping stuff. And more frightening is it's 360 exclusive ( possibly timed ). I have more footage directly downloaded from Live on my 360. It's amazing in HD. Anyone who said the 360 was finished with Gears 2 must feel silly now. :)



uncharted or KZ some of those games arent coming out but if they do then GT5

Why is that frightening? Do you even read what you type?

Because most people on this site dont think the 360 is capable of muchmore than Gears 2. :)

Loved your comment in the GT damage thread by the way, pure win. :)

 



Killzone will, followed closely by Heavy Rain and Alan Wake (if it makes it to 2009).

But ... that explanation makes no sense.  It's EASIER for an exclusive game to push performance out of the hardware, isn't it?  So it's not "even more" impressive that a game that looks awesome is exclusive in the least.

I agree. My point was some sad people thought the 360 wasnt capable. :)
