SCEA said today that it’s to release “Killzone in 4D,” a real-time version of a US Killzone 2 TV ad to “offer some insight” into the game’s technology.

You can watch the ad in question after the break.

“The Killzone 2 engine is phenomenally powerful,” said SCEA marketing boss Scott Steinberg, writing on the PS Blog.

“To offer you some insight into the technology behind this game, we will release a playable version of this in-engine ad vignette on the PlayStation Network coming in March.

“You’ll be able to control the camera and hear director commentary on how the production was completed using only the game’s technology. The project codename is ‘Killzone in 4-D’ – hope you can check it out.”

Killzone 2 releases on February 27.

Nah, the forth dimension is time. ;)

3D + slow-mo = 4D

(according to the PR people at Sony.)

i wish more people would release tech demos for free download; they’re awesome. i remember being fascinated with this stuff since my atari days; i remember some tech demos being released on ps1 demo discs (dino/stingray) but have not seen em since on any of the popular console formats.
