YouTube’s higher-resolution stuff is better but still far from optimal. And as the video above shows, whether it gets used or not is entirely up to the uploader.

“And there’s me thinking all YouTube did was fuck video over to unwatchable levels with its crappy compression.”

““Youtube heightens the look …”

LOL! Sure.”

Are you guys stuck in 2007 or something? Youtube has been rolling out high-quality and HD video playback features constantly over the last year or so.

“Shitty video compression” is about as valid a complaint as “Nintendo’s consoles don’t sell”. It was true three years ago, but not anymore.

Sometimes I think you guys whinge just to whinge.

Looks nice what ever it actually is – like the lack of hud and prompts. Torch effect was a bit poo – same size/shape whatever the distance/object it was shining on.

Youtube heightens the look (or adds if there is any) of Post Processign effects, including bloom, HDR, motion blur, general blur….

A multitude of thigns that killzone 2 looks like it does in direct feed.

So even if it were Alan Wake, I’d have waited to see if it did it first.

The hand holding the gun seems a bit stiff but it’s an easy guess that the surroundings are quite beautiful from a graphics standpoint although the video quality is poor.

And, yeah, the game being a FPS is a pleasant surprise. Good choice IMO.

Looks good, but that’s a very odd camera position.

First person? Wha..? Now there’s a surprise. If it’s real.

Hard to tell whether it looks any good or not from that video, unfortunately.
