This is my third time watching the video, and I still say KZ2 looks better...

I really don't see any aspect of this game that looks better than KZ2...

Simple: art! Something that Killzone 2, unfortunately, doesn't have. And that alone puts almost every technical achievement in Killzone 2 on a second plan. Ohh... and I was going to say "colour" instead of "art", but it would be to harsh.

There are so many games that look better than KZ2... Uncharted, Okami, SotC, TLoZ:WW, so on...

BTW, I own KZ2.

Actually, the saving grave for Killzone 2 was its style and atmosphere (and this coming from someone who hates Killzone 2).  Yeah, it did realistic but the character style (Helghast at least) was pretty cool with the proportions and the atmosphere was amazing.

I didn't feel that. I accept, but personaly that wasn't my experience.

But what I was trying to say is that it really hurts my soul to hear all the time that "KZ2 is graphics king" when all we have is a technical showoff (very good indeed, although I would prefer a more linear experience instead of amazing water and low res textures in the next wall), and then we have so many underrated works of art in that aspect. Damn, I prefer any Metroid Prime graphically (read overall - technical and artisticaly) to Killzone 2.

No, it's coming out on PS3.

Just have patience and selnor will tell you which is the new graphics king soon enough.

LOL. Here I am. :)

Yep Brink and Rage look stunning. And look to be the best of consoles very soon.

The annoying thing is because neither game goes for photorealism many will say it isn't. Sad really, because the art direction is amazing.

And I bet it will be PS3 fans that say it isnt and say U2 or KZ2 looks better. When they clearly dont. I dont know why a 3rd party game cannot be better to them.

Anyway bring on Rage.

coming from someone who says The Agent doesn't look as good as Alan Wake when not one single screen shot or even teaser has been shown

It's just "Agent." Not "The Agent." You must be an Xbot in disguise, otherwise you'd know that!

looks better than killzone 2 but closer to uncharted 2 trailers.

I riginally in this thread said Rage and Brink would be the new console graphics king. But after watching this next trailer about 2 mins ago. It's now Alan Wake. Sorry Carmack, remedy have outdone you.

Why, did Forza 3 go multiplat?

You shouldn't, because you're an Xbot!

Good catch, Badgenome.

Why can't there be graphics queens? I think there would be fewer arguments that way.

No, it would just lead to even more fighting when the 360 had all of those, too.

This doesn't hold a candle to Crysis. Actually (IMO) it doesn't even come close to Killzone 2.
