...looks almost as good as the pre-render...:eek:

And it looks like they've done great things with poly count and lighting effects. Check out the trailer at the end where a bad guy is machine gunned like a rag doll and lighted by the muzzle flash in a dark hallway. Looks like this game may actually live up to the hype and it's not even in beta yet...it's gonna be a hard wait for this one...

I think there's supposed to be another trailer up on the PSN after 3pm pacific also...

    Edit: Yeah, use gaara's link below. It's better and it looks like too many users are crashing out the stream from IGN.

    Edit: Here's a direct link to the trailer video on gametrailers.com.

    IMO http://www.gametrailers.com/ is better for videos.

    The new screenshots are impressive, the first one that "leaked" a couple of days ago wasn't to impressive.

    For everyone with a ps3, there are now close to twenty high definition E3 trailers up at the PS store. Killzone 2 looks amazing at full resolution. Much better than the internet streams. And those already look great.

    Killzone 2 does look absolutely phenomenal. Of course they didn't nail it 100% compared to the prerendered video but it still looks excellent.

    Honestly I wasn't impressed at all with the first half of the trailer, but the second half is stellar. I went from mildy excited for this game to I would buy a PS3 if it plays as well as it looks.

    If you liked the gameplay teaser snippets in the official trailer, check out the gameplay from the actual demo:

    http://www.gametrailers.com/player/21637.html

    F'ing amazing!!! While the graphics may be a shade under the original pre-render, I think the actual gameplay in many ways exceeds it. The blood and damage to bodies as you take down the bad guys is as good as I've seen it in any game and the lighting effects are perfect. The opening sequence is actually a far rendered real-time view of the actual level...

    This article describes the attention to detail of the developers:

    What impressed me most was the levels of detail.

    During the begin the sky looks phenomenal with the clouds, lightning and the plumes of smoke coming up. This to me is the real benefit of next gen consoles, you get a much higher level of immersion in the experience.

    I also love how realistic the soldiers move and act. For example near the end when the helghast soldier gets shot and falls to ground bleeding. The blood pools out around him and he crawls on the ground the get back up.

    Yes I agree with all the XXxcitement .. after seeing that I decided Im buying a PS3 next week despite the fact that my HDTV purchase is still 6 weeks away! Despite the fact that the game wont be available that soon Ive got new confidence that the PS3 will have exclusives that can not be remade on the 360 with its current storage medium ... I mean come on 2 GB of data for the first level only? ... wow!! The fact that Metal Gear Solid 4 is reaffirmed to be exclusive too ... again just drove me to DO IT and go through with it soon!

    Well, I think LAIR is coming out next month. You use the motion sensor in the six axis controller to ride dragons into battle. But you really should get moving on that HDTV to see what the machine is capable of. With the latest firmware update, all dvds and previous gen ps games are upscaled to 1080p. And blu-ray movies are great to look at in high resolution too. 300 is coming out at the end of this month...so there's definitely stuff to keep you busy while waiting for killzone 2 and mgs4...
