Killzone 2 Press Conference?!

Bond · 07-11-2007, 01:32 AM

A separate press conference for Killzone 2 should be going on right now and last until midnight pt time.

I haven't heard any information yet though.

Dyne · 07-11-2007, 01:35 AM

..but why? What could they possibly do for an hour and a half?

Bond · 07-11-2007, 01:39 AM

No idea.

It might just be a stunt.

IGN seemed t be impressed by it. Not 100% up to the old trailer's graphics, but close enough. Some of the best visuals seen to date.

Um, yeah. Click the link to watch the trailer. Easily the best looking console game I've seen. Parts of the game match the E3 2005 CG trailer, I think the area it doesn't match it is animation but a lot of that had to do with the CG being scripted.

Wow I didn't expect anyone else to post this early.. but yeah it looks damn good. lol

Perfect Stu · 07-11-2007, 07:32 AM

watch how they react to where they're being shot

Angrist · 07-11-2007, 10:13 AM

Looks good, I'm impressed.

Bond · 07-11-2007, 11:12 AM

It looks good graphically.

Has it been stated that was in-game engine footage? Because it wasn't in-game.

And is there a confirmed release date?

EDIT: Gamespot says this game is TBA 2008. I thought it was coming out this year?

Bond · 07-11-2007, 04:54 PM

Still wondering if anyone knows if this has been confirmed as in-game engine footage?

Angrist · 07-11-2007, 05:20 PM

From the trailer, it looks like it's half in game, half cut-scene. When you land and step out of the transport, the game starts. When you talk to the guy hanging over the map, cut-scene again. Gameplay again.

The game is a tad dark, are they hiding something?

BlueFire · 07-11-2007, 06:25 PM

That was impressive. Looks really good

DeathsHand · 07-11-2007, 06:43 PM

Some of the textures are a bit bland and the smoke/explosiony effects aren't as realistic as in the previous pre-rendered trailer, but I'd say they've come pretty dern close to living up to the hype (graphically speaking)...

Which is pretty amazing considering almost nobody except hardcore Sony fans thought it'd be anywheres near possible...

That is, of course, assuming this was all in-game footage... *gasp*

Dyne · 07-11-2007, 06:50 PM

Sony's copying everything. Now they're copying Turok!

It's pandemonium!

Perfect Stu · 07-11-2007, 07:49 PM

It's all in-game graphics. And the game is "pre-pre-alpha", and only about half of the games final animations are currently in the game, plus they plan on reworking a lot of the textures and effects.
