After this video, the Ps3 had me sold..............until I found out that it's most likely not real time (I shoulda listened to my guy)

The circumstantial evidence is just too much to ignore, you know?

All that being said, I cannot in good faith tout Killzone 2 as the best looking game ever because I really don't think it's a real game yet. But it sure is one hell of a CG sequence that, if in anyway happens to be representative of the final product, shows us what next-generation shooting should be like.

Ah well......it's not 100%, but I would say this video is not realtime.

for every argument against it, theres another argument towards it, so finding arguments like that is pointless. i kinda think its a mix myself.

However the biggest argument to me is from Epic games with thier unreal engine, who say the e3 videos are achievable. one cant say it will look exactly like that because thats not how a human would be controlling in game. but out of all the arguments epic right now is the word i trust the most, video real or not. (its not so much the graphics anyway, what makes that video good is everything going on at once.)

It's not pointless, it's an opinion and a valid one at that I think.

It's partly the visuals, but moreso the events happening almost make it seem to "prestaged" to be realtime.

im not saying your opinion is pointless. im saying for us all to argue with it and quote difference sources woudl be pointless, because for every quote against it, theres one for it. Its just not worth arguing about all summer long, videos are just meant for hype.

Many people on the forum believe that the Killzone video was real time, I'm just stating that it is not proven to be real time. I'm not arguing whether it's for or against, just that it could be either.

What time is it there anyways? It's like 1145pm here, and I'm off 2 bed.

it's not GAMEPLAY footage

but that's not to say it's just CG

I think most of it is running on a real-time engine, with some CG enhancements to make it look extra special for the PS3's E3 unveiling...and to show what it'll most likely look like as a final product. It's pretty obvious that it's scripted...but that doesnt mean it's all CG.

I dont know how you could possibly say you were "sold" on PS3, and now you're not because it's not 100% realtime/gameplay, but also consider the fact that the man from EPIC GAMES mentioned that PS3 games will surpass the video footage shown in a year or two.

For some strange reason, I dont think you were ever 'sold' on Playstation 3.

Graphics look great, as expected. But the game looks horrible, surprise surprise.

That strange reason is that I like Nintendo, so it's "unlikely" for me to like Sony, according to you? That's my strange reasoning theory too.....

I really was sold. That video really made me want one. I still do, but just not as much as wot I once did. There's not much 2 it really.
