Agozer Posted May 17, 2005 Share Posted May 17, 2005 I'd really like to see more 2D games with 3D mixed in on the newer consoles. But considering Sony's frigid approach to this from way back in the PSX days, it won't happen. They say that 2D diminishes their consoles' true power.

O-Fear Posted May 17, 2005 Share Posted May 17, 2005 I dont even see how this is a big deal. Ofcourse MS would do something like this.. if they didnt they would be retarded.

Agozer Posted May 17, 2005 Share Posted May 17, 2005 Killzone 2 is one of the games that will boost PS3 sales tremendously. Plus, it looks better than anything I've seen so far. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gryph Posted May 17, 2005 Share Posted May 17, 2005 Alright...well it seems that GTA Next as launch title has been retracted. Oh well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lucandrake Posted May 17, 2005 Share Posted May 17, 2005 Killzone 2 looks like it's going to pwn halo 3. Damn those graphics are sweet, I hope that's gameplay and not a cg intro tho. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lucandrake Posted May 17, 2005 Share Posted May 17, 2005 (edited) . That sucks, I want to see the gameplay, the ghost recon 3 footage looks awsome, and PS3 has better hardware the XB360. So , you never know Edited May 18, 2005 by Drake Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Agozer Posted May 17, 2005 Share Posted May 17, 2005 I don't think that the actual graphics of Killzone 2 are too far from those images, taking into consideration the PS3's number-crunching power. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gryph Posted May 17, 2005 Share Posted May 17, 2005 Here is what Mark Rein (CEO of Epic) had to say about the demos at the PS3 event:In addition to the Sony demos being shown by Phil Harrison, the Epic and EA presentations were the only third party portions actually running on the PS3 in real-time. But most of those movies, which I probably watched 3 or 4 during rehearsals for the event, look very achievable and some were probably rendered on the actual box but in non-real-time. When a system is year away, heck even with a system is 6 months away, it is reasonable to expect the power of the dev kits would still only be a fraction of the power of the final system. I know we'll certainly be able to achieve much more on the final box than we were able to show in our demo after working with the early dev kit for only ~2 months. As Tim mentioned our demo only really showed off the power of RSX and then still we're talk about an RSX that's nowhere near as fast as the final one will be. When we get home from E3 we'll also start diving seriously into the power of the cell processor. This is a very powerful system! Sony's cell demos were extremely cool and inspiring but are totally achievable, and over time even surpassable, by third developers like us because, as Tim Sweeney said, the development environment is made up of parts we're already intimately familiar with: OpenGL, NVIDIA graphics, Linux, and PowerPC. Think about Epic's experience, for example. We rock on NVIDIA hardware. We have been doing OpenGL since Unreal1. We regularly ship our games on Linux and we've won several Macintosh Game of the Year awards including a special World-Wide Design Award directly from Apple for UT2004. We're going to be able to kick serious ass on PS3, and so are a lot of our licensees and other 3rd party developers, in a way that wasn't remotely possible on past consoles. I should add that we're in a similar position for XBOX360. It's also made up of parts we're intimately familiar with. My point is that developers are going to be able to get SO MUCH MORE power out of these consoles than they ever could in the past and so much closer to the raw power of the components. The next generation is just going to be AMAZING!!! Next gen games will be a huge leap forward over current gen. Can you tell I'm excited? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Agozer Posted May 17, 2005 Share Posted May 17, 2005 Yes, I can tell that he is excited, and along with that, I am too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skythe Posted May 17, 2005 Share Posted May 17, 2005 Watch this:http://streamingmovies.ign.com/ps3/article...zone_wmvlow.wmv<{POST_SNAPBACK}> YES! *flapflapflapflapflapflapflapflapflapflapflapflap* BTW, taking a crap is more entertaining than Halo.
