U2 was 2x not 4x I believe
I honestly don't care if the camera's behind the gun or behind the head of the playable character...what I want instead is a wider FOV, most console FPS have average FOV and it was even less in case of Killzone 2, sure I can get used to it after a while but it certainly wasn't a pleasant experience.
What about camera? Is it still on the chest or on character head as GG promised? Can someone with NG account ask TTP about this in this thread?
I asked him on Skype, and he says he couldn't see that much of a difference ... the camera may have been a little higher up, but not really noticeable. Your mileage may very though - personally I probably wouldn't really notice as even in Killzone 2 didn't bother me - it's just a matter of what other games you play and how much.
That said, the field of view seemed larger in the beta, but that could also just be because you could see more clearly into the distance, giving a wider perspective.
It seems that in melee, you can gorge Helghasts' eyes, and in general fight at the same level. I didn't notice the height difference. May be it's more obvious when compared to a friendly soldier ?
A wider FOV would definitely be helpful.

Small FOV troubled me too in KZ2. Sometimes it would get too claustrophobic in small rooms. The biggest gripe was close quarters fights were really messed up due to really narrow FOV.
As for the blur caused by QAA, I think it helped KZ2 a lot in making it look very CGish and real. Everything meshed together cos of that blur and it never felt irritating like in Ratchet games. In KZ2, it just blended with the overall feel of a dusty/smoky heavy environment. I think it helped a lot in KZ2's look rising up from just looking like a game, to very CG movie like. But then, it was incorporated really well in the art style and post effects gelled with it. The QAA blur looks horrible in all other games.

Completely disagree with you on this one - I much prefer MLAA for Killzone 3, while QAA never bothered me in Ratchet, because it suited the cartoon-like shading and texturing very well. Of course I don't know how MLAA would have looked on that game, so I can't say for sure that I wouldn't prefer MLAA for that as well. But for Killzone 3, the environment detail stands out soo much more.

You totally misuderstood me there. MLAA looks great in KZ3, I am not asking for QAA in KZ3. I was just saying that though KZ2 had QAA, but they incoporated it so well in the overqll look that it actually helped the game rather than working against it as in other games.
As for Ratchet, cartoons and blur didn't work for me. TOD looked murky due to QAA. Cartoony look works best with high resolution and clean lines n textures. QAA was working against the clean look there.
But then, its better you didn't dislike it. You enjoyed the game more than me

Wasn't Ratchet substantially sub-720p anyway? (sub HD + QAA is sort of a worst case scenario that's all too frequent on the PS3)
Still, I think there are plenty of games where QAA didn't hamper the visuals at all. TR Underworld, Prince of Persia 08 and the Assassin's Creed games spring to mind here.

But Ratchet not use QAA from what I know... it's just the 960x720p resolution who cause the blurrish effect...it use 2xmsaa.
OK first review just dropped in. 9/10 from CD Action, the biggest selling Polish video game magazine. Credit to Tiberius of GT forum.

Pros:
one of the most beautiful games in the world
well-balanced, varied campaign
high difficulty level
Move and Sharp Shooter play
Cons:
- series deserved deeper and better protagonists
- minor technical difficulties (Killzone 3, PS3)
9/10
KZ3 got a 10 for graphics and sound, 9 for gameplay. A very promising start I'd say.

I hope KZ3's mp is significantly improved. I would love to ditch COD series for a while and make KZ3 my go to MP game. I'm really eager to see how well it controls with move.
Really, Call of Duty: W@W on the Wii already convinced me that pointer + nunchuck controls are the future of FPS gaming on consoles. Treyarch really did a fantastic job with that port. Of course, it also convinced me that they really needed to put more than two easily accessible buttons on each controller (you can always feel developers struggling with button scarcity on Wii FPSes...Nintendo put the -/+ buttons in an awkward spot, and you can't quite reach all 4 D-pad directions and keep your thumb comfortably near the A button, and there's always something mapped to shaking the nunchuck), and that's basically what Move is. In other words, the concept's been proven for a while now, but it needed some refining. Ironically, Sony's the one that took it to the next level, not Nintendo, who's sort of given up advancing motion controls.
