<div class="IPBDescription">Anyone who says ps2 is inferior well....</div> First off...<i><b><span style='font-size:21pt;line-height:100%'>I WISH PEOPLE WOULD STOP COMPARING THIS TO HALO2, THERE DIFFERENT STYLES OF GAMES!</span></b></i>
That being said, killzone looks like the greatest game for the ps2 ever. Having played the beta through sonys beta program, i can confidentely say that all ps2 fans have the fps they have been waiting for.

Not only are the graphics fantastic (on par with todays top games tbh) but so is the gameplay. How did they get the advanced particle effects and textures? The killzone people wrote there own engine just for the ps2!

If you click on that i reccomend that you watch the "Big Intro" move-as it will give you a good idea of the story and is just incredible. (You can also see the story on the official website.)
[B]EDIT- Release date for North america is NOV 2nd, and for the rest of the world there saying-"Late november"
Do to the games gritty graphics the screenshots really dont do the game's graphics justice, but trust me there amazing for ANY SYSTEM

That game looks really nice. Want to give us a basic rundown of the story and stuff? I'm tempted to go to the site, but I know I will end up burning like an hour there.
(* See Penny Arcade)
Beautiful crosshairs.
Nice models.
Excellent enviornments.
Lame this has to be primarily a PS2 game. I am now somewhat enchanted by this thing.
How ironic that you should feature the phrase Killzone>Halo 2 and a picture of Master Chief being stuck up by a Killzone thing in your sig...

It's called surplus angst.
OMG!!! You played through it already? How was it!! I'm dying to know.
As long as that drive isn't a PS2's.
Sorry buddy, but PS2 is very well the inferior, in terms of graphics. As for gameplay, I cant say. EDIT: Just realized that it has really low res texture aswell.

let me just add to that

the numbers dont lie
...
but that one game had really good graphics for its time iirc... i think it waaaaassss
extermination
ive still got my ps2 down stairs... never play it tho unless someone brings a game to my house... most of mine have been stolen... cept for like ico and ff10.....
i wanna get san andreas too...
I hope this comes out for the PC, would make great online games and mods, but if not, I reccommend everyone with a PS2 buy this and San Andres, it will keep you busy forever...
i don't mean to "compare" the two, but it's really the same technique. this game looks very cool, just a pity that it's one more modern, realistic (looking) shooter that adopts the "at the hip" position for its weapons.

Well obviously, but the numbers of units sold for games and systems far beats out Xbox.
There arn't ANY good games for Xbox. Halo wasn't all that great. Halo 2 looks pretty promising, though. Those two are the only games that I'd even consider buying for Xbox.

Fixed.
Halo got to be a chore after the Flood showed up. Never heard of KOTOR, Fable sounds okay, but its not my type of game. Project Gothem Racing sucks compared to Gran Turismo. (Yes, I've played it.) Splinter Cell was okay, but that's not XBox only, so there's no point arguing this. Rainbow Six is bad (also not Xbox only), and I've never heard of RTCW (though I've heard the acronym several times, along with KOTOR.)
Also, since Xbox is beating PS2 in units sold per month, I'd like to remind you of the PS2's first day release, and compare that to the Xbox's.
edit: Pulse, what exactly did Halo add to the FPS genre? What is something no FPS had done before it? I sure can't think of anything.

PS2 didnt ship enough units to retailers, that's what happened on the first day of release. And who cares if it's not xbox only, the point is that xbox gets the better version of the games that are multiplatform.

if i wanted to play great games but sacrafice graphics i would go play my snes
all im saying is the ps2 doesnt make up for its lack of graphical performance with its slightly better games (and in my opinion i think xbox has better games then ps2)
1 more thing ps2 overuses motion blur to make up for its crap framerates so thats minus another point on the ps2 side
Seconded. A lot of my friends own PS2's, they eventually stopped playing it, and wished that had bought an Xbox to begin with, instead of the PS2.
P.S. 16 Halo LAN party rules!

Wow, you managed to deduce that the PS2 is inferior when it comes to graphics because it has no bump/normal mapping? That must have taken forever!
The whole <i>point</i> of my post was that the PS2 has inferior graphics to anything a PC (or even X-Box) can put up.
