Gears of War 3 Might Be Battling Killzone 3 In GTTV’s Pre-E3 Show

GT: GameTrailers TV will be having a special Pre-E3 show in which they will be revealing 10 new exclusive games and video premieres. Geoff keighley confirmed that Killzone 3 will be making it’s debut at their Pre-E3 show along with 9 new titles. Speculation is rampant about what games will GTTV be showing us for the first time, and we might have the answer to one of them.

[movements]

Clash of the titans indeed. There's no better showdown that Killzone 3 and Gears 3. Awesomeness I reckon.

[deadreckoning666]

True, but if Battlefield 3 gets announced..it'll likely dominate both.

@Strange_Evil- I'm not trying to get into any stupid fanboy war. Btw, are u saying that just because people aren't hyping Battlefield 3, that means that it won't be good or it can't be better than KZ3 or Gears of War 3?

Also, I own a PS3 and I think the best shooter this generation is easily BC2, not Killzone 2 as ur "PS3 crowd/360 crowd MUST hype this particular game" logic.

[Strange_Evil]

Unlikely.... PS3 crowd will hype KZ3 and 360 crowd will for Gears 3.... Who for BF3??? PC lol? Not many of them get into fanboy war as far as my knowledge on the PC side.

EDIT: Whoa Deadreck..., when did I say I was starting a fanboy war?? You say BF3 will dominate both and I thought you meant in terms of hype which clearly won't be the case. Besides, ain't it too early to decide if BF3 will be better than Gears or KZ??? The game isn't even announced for crying out loud let alone the fact that we haven't even seen any video footage.

[ULTIMATE_REVENGE]

I'm giving you bubble just because you thought for yourself and you never went with the rest of the crowd.

[BkaY]

trust me i am going to get both but i am more excited about GeOW3 than KZ3... purely coz i am TPS guy not FPS...

but i really like the way both gamers are shaping up....

peace..

[shadow2797]

BC2 JUST came out. How in the world can they show anything for BC3 already?

If BC3 makes an appearance on GTTV, I will likely never buy a Battlefield game again. Even Call of Duty had a longer grace period and that has multiple dev teams.

Edit:
Nevermind! I just realized you said "Battlefield 3" and not Battlefield: Bad Company 3.

As you were...

[sak500]

@deadreckoning

I agree Battlefield series pwans both KZ2 and Gears and even halo in terms of graphics/gameplay/multiplayer/ level designs/size/destructability/p hysics etc etc etc....

+bubbs

@shadow

you're mistaking Bad Company2 with Battlefield 3. BF3 is sequel to BF2 which is not BadCompany2. Sorry can't go any deeper you need to google. BTW First BF was BF1942 back in 2002 or something

[PshycoNinja]

I played Gears 2 (sorry not the first one) and IMO I just couldn't get into it. It was boring and just not fun. When I bought KZ2 I loved it, the backstory really got me interested in the universe and I love how it's scifi but very much grounded in reality.

With that said I hope both games do well and expand upon their working and already great stories and gameplay.

[Raf1k1]

It's Battlefield3 which is different to the Bad Company games since it's on a whole different scale and only on PC.

[tavo1117]

Epic Battle, but GoW3 must be very good graphically talking to get alongside KZ3.

[Biggest]

God of War 3 is more than just very good graphically. Or are you talking about GeoW3?

[Focker420]

@Biggest

lol hes talking about Gears 3.

[Lich120]

Just putting it out there, but GeoW as an Acronym doesn't make any sense.

[Biggest]

But you can't take an already established acronym and use it for your own purposes and expect people to know what you mean. I can't just say PETA and expect you to know Paper Elephant Training Association.

[Lich120]

Thats true, although that would be a pretty sweet Association.

[Moentjers]

there is only one Peta:

http://www.hln.be/hln/nl/95...

[GWAVE]

The gameplay boils down to personal preference (a FPS versus a TPS? C'mon this sounds like Resistance 2 vs Gears 2 comparisions).

But when it comes to graphical detail and physics, Gears 3 will fall short against KZ3.

[Greywulf]

Gears has like 2 vs 2

compared to 32 players.

God the bar is so low for 360 games.

[-Alpha]

Greywulf, grow up.

5 vs 5 is a design choice. Do you really not understand how different a game 32 player Gears would be? Uncharted 2 is 5 vs. 5. By your logic, it must clearly mean the standard was low for UC2... oh right, PS3 exclusives are exempt from your standards.

[deadoralive1337]

Alpha is definitely right Greywulf. It's just a design choice for 360 games. I rather want to be able to play games than experience lags and some serious glitches and other issues. If you really think the bar is so low on the 360 and very high on PS3 then why does UC2 have 5 on 5 when MAG has 256 players? This is all design choice and not the bar.

[Lich120]

Its a design choice because Gears + Tons of People = Not fun. Gears is not about large scale battles its about skirmishes.

By your logic MAG is 8 times better than KZ2.

Honestly, how does he have so many agrees?

[emk2004]

when it comes to game play that's all preference so people don't argue about it. when it come to graphics and physics kz3 trumps gears.

[raztad]

LOL

This might be very interesting indeed. Both games pre-alpha and releasing in a similar time-frame. KZ3 will likely be the best looking PS3 game next year so is interesting to see how the second biggest xbox exclusive fare in the gfx dept.

[PoSTedUP]

3D vs. 2D... just saying...

TPS vs FPS... just sayin...

cliffyB better be working his ass off though thats for sure!

can't wait to play them both.

[kaveti6616]

How is TPS vs. FPS a point against Gears?

Some prefer TPS?

Secondly, not everyone wants 3D.

[MerkinMax]

I can not wait to enjoy BOTH of these titles next year!!!

[TROLL EATER]

both will be in shadows of halo reach post e3

[DA_SHREDDER]

I see only one titan. Its more like David versus Goliath, except this time David doesn't have his slingshot. Goliath ends up biting dudes head off.

[LordMarius]

Someone is going to get KILLZOWN3D

[Convas]

Oh please, we ALL know we're about to get "Brinked" and "Spec Oped" and "Deus Exed". Need I even mention that Halo is on the scene? Killzone and Gears will just be 2 shooters among a sea of shooters. God knows what'll happen to the place if Battlefield 3 and Uncharted 3 get announced ...

[D4RkNIKON]

Who is this "we ALL"?

[gtsentry]

gears of war 3 n killzone 3 is cuming out nex year....where as all the games ur talking about cums out this year..GEARS N KILLZONE HAVE PLENTY OF SPACE TO THEMSELVES NEX YEAR

[DA_SHREDDER]

Brinked and Speced oped? Dude, you must be a one console owner, and by sentence, its easy to guess what console that is.

[Cajun Chicken]

I see what you did there. That was actually pretty clever. I expect to see it in a headline somewhere.

[Xi]

when does the next episode of one of Hiphop "Gamer's" "vidicles" come out?

[Dylantalon1]

gears of war 3 could never battle killzone 2 much less killzone 3. a screen shot of killzone 3 destroys gameplay video of gears of war 3 .

[ArcFatalix]

thats delusional, i am a ps3 fan but admit it gears is fucking awesome

[Dance]

the i have both console look at my gamertag still makes your post sound fanboyish

[duplissi]

maybe he really loves killzone?

[Unicron]

Where's my Madden versus Final Fantasy? It makes just about as much sense...

[Nike]

Yeah, I was thinking what possibly could be a dumber flamebait story than HHG's current one. Luckily, GamesThirst came along and didn't disappoint. :-/

[alphakennybody]

both being sci-fi hardcore shooters is more than enough to warrant a comparison .

[Nike]

By that standard, why not compare Project No. 13 and Gears of War 3? Both are sci-fi, third person, hardcore shooting games. Or Silent Hill and Gears of War 3? They both have shooting, third person and horror elements, and are meant for the hardcore. It's more than enough to warrant a comparison. /s

[ImmortalLegend]

I'm looking forward to both KZ3 and Gears of War 3, but I must admit I'm looking forward to Gears 3 more because I just find the game to be more fun.

[shadow2797]

That's cool. Personally, I'm looking forward to KZ3 more because I find it more fun, but I had a lot of fun playing Gears 2, so Gears 3 shouldn't disappoint.

Though I will admit that I'm most excited for LBP2. Every time I think about that game my head is filled with endless level ideas.

[scofios]

Gears of War 3 Might Be Battling Killzone 3 In GTTV’s Pre-E3 Show .
There is no reason for that both great games on different systems .

[crapgamer]

Well I am looking forward to Gears Of War 3. I want to see how they end this particular trilogy. I know there will be more Gears games, but this one is shaping up nicely. Not to start a whole "thing" here, but The Gears games have sold almost 13 million copies, while the Killzone games have sold less then 3 million. So it's not really much of a competition. I love Gears online and the offline campaign is amazing as well, 4 player co-op campaign for Gears 3 as well. They always bring something new and nice to the table.
Killzone is just hype IMHO. They hyped it as the "Halo Killer" and yet Halo 3 lives with like a million users a day still! The weighted controls and bland environments make Killzone pretty bad to me anyway. Plus, the last game had no staying power, I mean 3 months later and nobody was playing KZ2 and the hype was over. I still play Gears 2 and it's community is very, very active, just got a new title update as well.

[dragonyght]

speak for yourself mate 35 days and 5 hours with over 100000k and counting rank at 60 im sorry to tell this but k2 is still alive and kicking

[4lc4pon3]

I have to agree with Fatalix. The GOW series are fantastic and Graphically are Great. Killzone 2 looked good but you guys seriously need to stop. The game was NOT that amazing graphically & to say that Gears of war 3 wont compete with Killzone 2 is bullshit.

[LeonSKennedy4Life]

Yeah...you didn't play Killzone 2, did you?

I love Gears of War, but let's be realistic.

[4lc4pon3]

Yeah I played killzone 2. In my opinion it was not that impressive

[RememberThe357]

I, for one, am going to keep talking about how great Killzone 2 looked because it was mind blowing when I first saw it. The only other console shooter that has matched it is Uncharted 2. Gears 3 will look great but Killzone 3 will look better.

[duplissi]

so uh.... did you play in 19in sd or what!?
so you think gears looks great... cool so do i, in fact i think it looks amazing... but this: "The GOW series are fantastic and Graphically are Great." followed by this about killzone: "The game was NOT that amazing graphically"

im sorry man but i just cant take you seriously on this. gears of war is graphically amazing.. yes. but to then turn and say that killzone 2 is not is.. well dumbfounding.. so are we to assume that the entirety of the game industry needs glasses then? cause everyone was gushing about killzone's graphics.

[shadow2797]

http://www.youtube.com/watc...

Here's a good video comparing the two. Killzone still blows me away every time I play it. Gears 2, on the other hand, seems at about the same level as a lot multiplatform games I've played this gen. It was a fun game, but it never really impressed me.

[LeonSKennedy4Life]

Gears 2 has the better campaign.

Killzone 2 has the better multi-player.

This should be exciting.

Looks like both are stepping it up in all areas.

[King Hippo]

Killzone 2 has the better multiplayer and campaign. More players in multiplayer plus the gametypes would change constantly without the need for loading. Gears 2 was better in multiplayer than campaign (despite it being a laggy piece of garbage). I don't even think Gears of War even has a storyline. If it does then it must be pretty dull because it was really forgettable.

[rob6021]

Gears has Co-op, Killzone has better Multiplayer and campaign. That's how I see it, though Co op is a big plus.

[PRHB HYBRiiD]

can't w8 till e3... so many things :o i am too overhyped ,...relax -.-

[MajestieBeast]

Im just waiting for someone to make a new music video of cliffy B getting killzowned that would be funny.

[Campy da Camper]

I wish I had one of those MIB flashy thingys. I could just make myself forget the next 5 days and wake up June 15th.

[Dylantalon1]

gears of war 3 isnt comparable to killzone 2 or killzone 3 because all gears of war games are laggy, glitchy and is below the technological achievements of killzone 2. gears of war is crap and if anyone plays other shooters then theyll agree. gears of war is so bad that people run around the game crying about host all day. gears of war kills are so inconsistent that sometimes a shotgun blast to the head will do little damage and other times a person dies. sometimes a shotgun blast can kill from 5 meters away and sometimes it doesn't. im a big fan of gears of war and i can say it's utter rubbish. gears of war 3 will sell amazingly well while it will suffer the same fate as gears 1 and 2 because fanboys are sheep. there can never be a fair game in gears because its P2P connection and the host is overpowered. anyone who disagrees with any facts ive stated is an imbecile. killzone 2 is amazing and often times touted as the best looking game graphically because it looks amazing and also gameplay's amazing .

[candystop]

Gears3 and KZ3 both suck! Quantum Theory all the way.

[poopface1]

That was a classic.

[joel_c17]

Haha hellz yes! :-p

[poopface1]

LOL at all the people with only one console arguing which one is better a year before they release.

what a bunch of objective gamers with educated opinions /sarcasm.

[joel_c17]

Love having both. Looking forward to gears and killzone 3. IMO gears 2 was a solid 8 while killzone 2 was probably a 8.5-9. Hope gears 3 has a better ending

[Strikepackage Bravo]

Killzone can't even sh%t in the same place as Gears.

[duplissi]

well if you had a bathroom near you on the top floor(where your at), and one in the basement which one would you use..

[MastermindPS360]

fps vs tps YAY!!!

more ps3 owners bought COD than k2 why bother....

[shadow2797]

More 360 owners bought COD than Gears 2, what's your point?

[mp1289]

.

[chriski333]

yea right two hits killzone3 hits gears hits the floor END.

[deno]

If killzone is better then gears, then why do more people purchase gears and why does gears have a better overall score. Can someone mature please answer this? Games usually sell alot if they are a hit with the gaming public. That would mean the game has to be a good lasting game.

[crazydrummerlad1]

i dont go so much off of score and sales to determine the appeal of a game. for me, i jus prefer KZ....by a lot....

[PshycoNinja]

Brand loyalty, first was innovative and fun so why not the second one, ect ect. That's why gears 2 sold more. As for the score part, almost all reviews are subjective and not objective like they should be. If the scores were objective the game would have had points deducted for the online portion of the game.

[Kingdom Come]

Cliffy B has insisted many times that we're only getting gameplay at E3, and lets be honest, if the GTTV Pre-E3 Show had an appearence from Gears of War 3, they would have mentioned it instead of Star Wars the Force Unleashed 2.

[asgharagha]

gears 3 cant even reach kz2 visualls . ehat can it do in this battle?

[crazydrummerlad1]

KZ3 will b shown while 360 games still attempt match KZ2....true statement folks....

[supremacy]

games are great in my opinion.

Now i wonder if resistance 3 will look as good as any of these two games.

Battlefield 3 yeah sure, but wherever there's one there will always be activision with their monster seller call of duty answering the call, regardless whether or not battlefield is a better game, I've yet to see it surpass any call of duty game in sales.

just like for every brink which i never played or don't know much about because there isn't anything on it other than screen shots so no one knows how it controls and how the story and what modes and features asides graphics it will have? there's a crysis.

the only reason why gears gets compare to killzone and vice versa is because of their graphics, other than that these games got nothing in common.

killzone was design for halo, gears was design of off killswitch using unreal tourney design.

i say they are both going to be great games.
