    Where is the damn gameplay trailer? Another Killzone 2 CGI bullshit. Shame on you Sony.

      Did you at any point think you were watching in-game footage?

      I don't see how it's comparable to what was done with Killzone 2.

        Okay, first of all, I very much doubt it was in-game footage since Sony and their partners are known to make early CGI trailers to show the approximate level of graphics they're striving for, but EVEN if it is in-game, it wasn't mindblowing as I expected.

        Second of all, nevermind the above, where is the gameplay? That's the only game and the only part of the conference I was eagerly waiting for and all I get is a stupid 1 minute trailer of Kratos standing on top of some dilapidated building?

        That just made it the worst conference ever, nothing worthwhile before it, and nothing worthwhile after, just like MS & Nintendo.

      Killzone 2 now actually looks like the CGI they showed back in E3 that people made a stink about

      But nowhere do they hint or even say that this stuff is ingame for God of War 3, its just a CGI trailer

          it's damn close to the E3 Trailer if you've seen the latest ingame footage of it

          check the HD videos at gametrailers

          not sure about gameplay though....it looks great and may be the best looking ps3 game when it comes out but how does it play

            I've seen the video, and it's not very close to the first E3 trailer. The textures were kinda crappy and the immense detail wasn't there.

            The characters were pretty close, but not that amount of detail in real time.

            Agreed with others... doesn't look that much like E3 trailer. The explosions look especially weak to me.

            It looks nothing like the E3 trailer.

            It looks great, but nowhere near the E3 trailer

      Not quite, this was clearly a CG trailer, whereas Killzone was attempting to show off what they thought they could pull off in-game.

      Um it was a CGI teaser. I don't see anyone claiming it was anything different. Get a grip.
