New Killzone 2 shots show off amazing ground textures

Posted on October 3rd, 2008 at 06:57 EDT

Three new Killzone 2 screenshots have surfaced on the Internet this morning, one of which shows off the impressive work Guerilla Games has done to provide amazingly realistic ground textures.

Notice the definition of each individual rock and the glistening lighting effect in the pools of water. This is just one of many visual highlights the hotly anticipated sequel promises to deliver upon its release in February 2009.

Check out the screenshots below.

good that developers are geting to grips with the ps3 hardware. i want to know how good it is to play, not just to look at!

I agree with Limmex, The graphics look great, let's see how the game plays and see if all this hype is worth it. Maybe a beta or a downloadable demo in the near future would be nice.

this game will show how much the Unreal engine 3 sucks, which is used for almost every FPS with choppy framerate, slowdown, over loading RAM on consoles, perfect example: area51.blacksite, brothers in arm h ells highway.

wow, usually i also care about gameplay, but when it looks this good...i almost wanna play it JUST to look at it, Gameplay to me is important, but for some reason im not worried about it when i see screens of this game

and remember all. Screenshots dont do games justice anymore, jus wait till we see it moving

Sounds like alot of impressive distractions to get shot... JK, props to the devs.

it will be very disapointing if sony don't license this engine out to other ps3 developers, as the game is looking stunning.  Far superior to the 2005 demo.  I can see myself wasting hours just staring at the graphics.

I have to agree with zarajoe, everyone has talked about the E3 video from 2005 and how it was all faked. Look at the development of this game and the graphics and style have surpassed that video by leaps and bounds. As a person who loved the first game I can't wait for Feb 09.

Looks quite nice nothing different to games out now, lets see some mist hovering above the floor and bubbling gasses in puddles etc like you would in DX10.gamesif it cant be done on the PS3 then its old hardware already.

I think the PS4 should have changeable hardware like a PC so developer can upgrade the graphics after a couple of years and all we need to do is update the video processer. and for those who dont upgrade it will have to play games on normal textures while the upgraded versions can use more textures more layers ect. just a though.

wtf.. people buy consoles so they dont have to pay 200$ every year or two to upgrade their PC

Awsome, I'm all for Visual Excellence, but, do characters 'moonwalk' or 'slide' their feet on the ground in games still ? This has been a realism annoyance ive had for years....

If this is real time, Xbots can say not another word about graphics.  HOLY  CRIZZOLIES! Also, the enviroment in the second screen is one of the enviroments that never gets old for me; i am reminded slightly of the first mission of MOHAA, actually.

Won't be getting this, but I'm no hater, I know Killzone is gonna be epic for the PS3 and I'm happy we are getting it. Why are PC gamers so smug? The only competition that matters is us versus Xbots. We can't afford to have the gaming industry brought down by a status quo of mediocre software. I'll watch Killzone 2s stats in hopes it becomes a breakout hit.

@ #46

what do you mean if that is real time? thats in game. the screens are taken from the multiplayer beta. that is real time in game blah blah blah whatever floats your boat. when your playing, thats what you see as of right now in the beta.

@42 my point is PC's have been around for a long time and always will be because they are allways on the cutting edge of technology. and with Consoles there hardware is dated as soon as it comes out, why buy another console lets say every four years! because they cant play the latest graphical games out thats why, thats why they had a ps1 ps2 ps3, like a PC you just upgrade the parts you need as ans when, not buy an whole system like a console. and whats wrong with future Consoles having upgradable parts in the future? and enabling more advances textures. and as far as the CELL goes its not only in a PS3 IBM made it. and the video card in the PS3 is outdated by a couple of generations now in a PS3 its basically a 7800gtx.=256MB GDDR3 RAM at 22.4GB/sec and the latest and fastes card 2GIG GDDR5=230GB/sec Memory Bandwidth 22-230 Massive difference there.all im saying is in the futire if consoles want to keep up then they need to change they way they are.

Imagine playing killzone2 in DX10 with loads more eye candy who wouldnt say no apart from you that is. i have a valid point and am not blinkered.

I totally disagree with you. See the price of a console is even cheeper than a top of the line graphics card for a PC (not to mention if you go for SLI or Crossfire combos). So while in 3 or 4 years, as you say, you´ll buy another, on the PC you buy on every year. Not to mention all of the rest you need to keep the gameplay FPS and RES. up.... no comparison there sorry.

graphics are great... it truly shows ps3's power... but we shud also see that good graphics are not the only part whch makes a game worth buyin... i feel now on next generation consoles every other game will come wid great graphics but the story line and gameplay shud also be tight so good graphics wont make me drooling over a game... give us a better reason to spend 60$...

kill zone 2 should be up in the greatest hits with Metal Gear Solid 4. i'll definetly buy it if  it looks that good.
