To be honest, I thought that the reveal demo was the usual "motion bullshot" we see at console reveals so I expected the gameplay stuff to reign it in a little. But man, after seeing this footage... God damn, I'll eat my crow with a smile. GG weren't kidding when they said the PS4 let's you do everything at once. What blows my mind is that this is a launch game. A fucking launch game.

Is that same animation playing on the first two dudes? Why not use the same system they had in the earlier titles?Here, slow-mo ability goodness
Where did the quote come from?

I agree, I wasn't nearly as impressed with Perfect Dark Zero or Resistance at the time.
For a launch game, it's incredibly impressive. I don't think I even have to put a qualifier on it, it's just impressive period.

Previous games maybe hinted at but surely you don't need to play the first 3 for this.

This is a launch game? It can't be!

What happened to the fancy screenspace reflections in floors and walls from the original trailer?

Need I remind people: we haven't seen Naughty Dogs new game.
Let that sink in for a moment

I'm more excited for Naughty Dog's next-next game on the PS4, which will undoubtedly look even better than their first attempt at the PS4. It'll be Uncharted 2 all over again.

This doesn't take place in the same area so maybe it's not in these levels that were shown? Plus look at that vent gif does that count as that?

Let's not put too much pressure on ND shoulder shall we?
WOW!! Those screenies are soooooooooo CLEAN! Oh man i never thought i would be this jacked up this early in the new PS4 launch games coming from the last 2 years of solely PC gaming but i must admit i am damn impressed at the Image Quality going on with PS4's Killzone. For a launch game i am quite impressed indeed! Very nice looking game..personally to me the best looking launch game.
It's a great time to be a PC and Console gamer...finally moving on from those dated aged consoles of current gen. Been a looooong wait!!

Not a fan of the aliasing in that industrial area looking shot :/
Not really noticing any in other shots makes me worry about visual consistency in the game. It looks amazing and all, but if it's gonna jag out on occasion that'll break the immersion.

Awesome thanks, hope you guys don't mind I've been putting these in the OP.
Suspiciously clean, yes.

Have you watched the videos? Aliasing is hardly noticeable in motion.
I don't know bro - i myself being a PC gamer with a decent 3770k@4.4ghz and a 7970 VaporX@1200core/1600mem i been spoiled by pretty clean image quality along with decent AA/AF settings on all my games I've played on PC and to me the image quality of these Killzone screens are VERY CLEAN to me. I guess to some people that sort of thing that you commented on means a lot to some but to me and a lot of others i've noticed...when the image quality is at this level we see with Killzone..it is a non-issue as far as the AA goes. It's VERY CLEAN to me. Definitely something i can "easily" live with, in fact i don't even see the big issues with AA here at all

I'm ready to play this already, loving the direction Killzone is taking.

The game looks stunning. The preview video by GameXplain (whoever they are?) was kinda scathing about the attempts to avoid linearity and also said that graphically it looks like a shiny PS3 game and if they'd been told it was PS3 they would have believed it. Which to me, looking at videos seems ridiculous.

They usually only cover Nintendo games, so it figures...
Anyway, heading to bed, won't be making any adjustments to OP for a while, keep up the good work with the GIFS guys.

Talking out of their ass.
I haven't seen anything like this on PS3 (and I own TLoU/Heavy Rain and so on), they clearly need glasses.

Currently polling second in Australia's federal election (first in the Gold Coast), this feral may one day be your Bogan King.
Looks good. The art shines, the scale is great, and the technical wizardry is impressive for a launch game. Not much in face value that hasn't been done by some high end PC games already (Crysis 3, Metro: Last Light), but that's a compliment. Glad to see some snazzy effects finally adopted by games, and by a series well renowned for presentation no less.
My feelings towards the Killzone series as a whole are pretty damn scattered, but I will say that the most impressive thing about Shadow Fall to me is what appears to be more open level design. I wasn't fond of the painfully linear campaigns of Killzone 2 and 3 and felt neither did that particular formula very well anyway, but Mercenary, even if it didn't live up to what I hoped, showed that the universe works better when they loosen up the pacing and level structure to let you think a bit instead of monotonous cover-to-cover shootbang.
I get a Crysis series vibe from Shadow Fall, and in a good way. Could be what the series needs.

well, it was evidently allready the case but this game makes it blatantly obvious: Internet Video encoding and compression does not do justice to games anymore.
It was allready the case with last gen, but was at least not completly out of place, but seeing this game I say youtube needs to ramp up!and fast.
