Forums - Microsoft - Blueside confirms KUF 2 for X360 plus NEW Screens and Launch Date etc.

Gears 2 will probably look better, technically speaking. But they both give me boners, and that's all that matters.

And we're finally getting a proper KUF this generation!

The last game was a joke, so I'm glad they when back to the format that works...the first game rocked!

KUF:CoD got a 55 on metacritic. If the second one fares better i'd try it out on my 360. The game looks good. I like games with settings like this.

KUF: CoD was a spinoff. KUF 2 is actually a sequel to the main series.


Ah cool. Saw the other 2 on the original xbox with 80+. This one looks good. I'm willing to give it a go.

Yeah KUF: CoD is a blight on the series. My best friend has KUF on the original X-box and that game was all kinds of awesome. I hadn't heard of the KUF series up until that point, so I was looking forward to Circle of Doom. I was disappointed when it was clear that the game was spin off but I figured I'd give it a whirl anyway. That was a bad idea. I'm glad they are getting back to the series roots.

Yeah. The only really good thing I can say about it was that the atmosphere was impressively bleak. Too bad the gameplay was equally lifeless.

Why is everyone blowing their load over those screen shots? The graphics really don't look that good. Games like Gears 2 look better in every aspect but scale.



And for another example, compare this character:



With this:



I'd definitely say Marcus looks a touch better.

And when you compare KUF with other upcoming games like Uncharted 2, Alan Wake, Final Fantasy XIII, The Last Guardian, etc. it looks even worse in comparison.

Not to say it's a bad look gaming at all - it's not - it's just just as mind blowing as many of you are making it out to be.


You need new glasses man. Kingdom Under Fire 2 looks better than all the games u listed, and definately better than Gears 2.
(overall, in motion I bet Uncharted 2 and Alan Wake will look slightly better than KUF2, but based on the still screen shots released so far, KUF2 takes the crown)

Also, u draw a false comparison, because obviously Marcus model will be more detailed than the rest of character models in the game because it's just one model you see in front of you all the time - so obviously Epic put more work in that single model. And despite this I think the orcish soldier in KUF2 is better looking than Marcus.

And this shot in particular looks amazing, Look at the girl and the unicorn, and the tower behind it - it's graphics perfection.

The lighting in KUF2 are wonderful and the textures are good, but I have to give it to Uncharted 2, Alan Wake, Gears 2 and Last Gaurdian.

Having that said, all those games are on larger budgets besides KUF2 (I'm making an assumption). It would probably look even better if it were on a bigger budget.




^Of course a bunch of Sony fanboys will come into this thread and dismiss KUF2 graphics quality lol.

I'm a Sony fanboy because I'm saying a 360 exclusive (Gears) is better looking than a supposed timed exclusive (KUF2)?

Re. Marcus versus everyone = my point exactly. KUF2 doesn't excel in any area other than scale. It has lot of characters on screen at once, and it looks glorious. But each individual character does NOT look that good.

The girl and the unicorn look okay, but nothing amazing. I can't see why you'd call it 'graphics perfection'. And look at the other picture I quoted, as it clearly shows the weakness of the individual character models versus the awesomeness of the epic scale.

And this is my point in its entirety. The game has a brilliant sense of scale, but every other area of its graphics are merely 'good', not 'ZOMFG amazing', which is in no way an insult.

Of course u will run this argument because KUF2 is an upcoming X360 games, while Gears 2 has run it's course and isnt significant in the hype war anymore as much as a future title is.

U just wanna kill the hype of another superb looking X360 exclusive.
