Killzone 3 – New uber-awesome shots

kz3

Awesome is good. Awesome is great. In fact, awesome is, well, awesome. But Killzone 3 awesome?

That’s just dropping the bassline to a whole new level. In a good way.

SCEE’s released eight new shots of the Guerrilla shooter.

It looks properly epic, it has to be said.

You can get ‘em at GamersMint.

The game launches next February for PS3 with added Move support.

Erthazus you see @45 stated his OPINION that is something everyone is entitled to, if he states his OPINION then you cannot have a go at him for it nor criticise it because it isn’t your opinion seriously have you heard of a thing called being social

It’s pretty and all, but it’s hard to be impressed when the entire world seems to be the same shade of bluish grey. What’s wrong with just a hint of colour?

I can’t wait for Brink to get here.

I think -and i might be wrong but bare with me- that snow is white and metal is grey… Just putting that mad idea out there.

@55 So that makes it more stimulating somehow?

I don’t really care if it’s made out of marshmellow and underpants, it still looks incredibly dull.

More stimulating? No. Just more anchored in reality. Then again i’m no specialist on arctic-based oil rigs, i’m just assuming they arent normally covered in disco lights.

Yeah, I must admit I’d like to see a bit more contrast in the other levels they’re creating. It can look like a bit of a white wash at times. The Helghast do look fierce against the snowy backdrop though, and I’m really liking the emphasis on melee combat.

As I say, this and Bulletstorm stole the show for me.

Don’t like the look of Bulletstorm. Reminds me of a kaleidoscope.

A desaturated look makes games look better than rainbow-fests IMO.

More gritty and realistic.

@58 I’m still pretty sure there are more than 3 colours on such an oilrig, but I guess the real issue is that they choose that sort of scenery to begin with. Like I said I’m looking forward to something a bit more stimulating.

Realism, isn’t a way to justify grey Gekidami.

Grey is an artistic decision, one which I think most defintely is not paying off.

Striking use of photorealism and cinematc lighting is what made KZ2 look superb.

Whatever happened to the ‘ignore poster’ feature Pat ?

I could have sworn it was ‘any day now’ several months ago…

It’s coming. It was supposed to happen in January this year, but didn’t. It’s on a document as “the most requested feature” on the site. I’m waiting to hear back as to when all the broken stuff’s going to be fixed. God willing, I’ll know this week.
