Killzone 3 vs. Halo Reach: The Best Video Comparison

Net Media Now - "A video comparison between Killzone 3 and Halo Reach. Youtube user, GmoneyProductions29, compares similar gameplay mechanics such as melees, jet packs, vehicles, and much more.

I think it's one of the best video comparisons I've seen. Gmoney did a great job editing the video, and playing music from both games. There's no winner here, just a good video to watch."

Nice, Killzone 3 wins graphics

HALO wins everything else :P

joking, they are great in their own way

[Criminal]

Exactly, like I said there's no winner here.

[anthraxCZ]

graphics = killzone 3 - gameplay = halo reach

[LOGICWINS]

I actually tried to understand your formula and it hurt my brain.

[zootang]

My OPINION

I think Halo Reach looks like Wii game compared to Killzone 3.

[LOGICWINS]

@zootang- Well, ur entitled to that opinion just like I'm entitled to my opinion that Killzone 3's multiplayer is broken.

[zootang]

I don't really play multi-player online in any games. Apart from Multi-player only games. If you say it's broke I'll believe you but I've heard nothing but good things about it.

I like the single player element of most games.

[BattleAxe]

Halo looks so cute compared to Killzone 3.

[MaxXAttaxX]

Don't know about you guys. The video footage shown here was pretty good.

[ShinMaster]

Graphics = Killzone
Story = Halo Reach
Overall story = Killzone series
Gameplay = Both are different, can't compare
Soundtrack = Halo
Sound Effects = Killzone

Bonus:
Jetpacks = Killzone
Bubble shield = Resistance

[DAS692]

The Multiplayer is not broken, the damn AUDIENCE IS! When I was in the open beta, all I heard were fucking COMPLAINTS!!!! STFU AND TAKE THE GAME AS IT IS, OR IT'll END UP BEING SOME FUCKING COD BULLSHIT!!!! IF THERE ARE NO TECHNICAL DIFFICULTIES, AND THAT'S WHAT THE DEVS WANTED, THE STFU!!! PLEASE! BEFORE YOU TAKE ANOTHER GOOD THING AND TURN IT INTO SHIT!

[Hitman0769]

Tru that crazy good times on KZ3, lovin the move support.

[Criminal]

Can't wait to pick up PS move. I'm just waiting for SOCOM 4 Move bundle to come out.

[Wh15ky]

Loving Move aswell.

It really contributes to making Killzone 3 the best FPS I've ever played.

If Battlefield 3 uses Move though I think it will take the crown.

[DaTruth]

Can you suggest a good setting for Move! I rather play then sit around tweaking settings and I haven't been able to find one that feels perfect!

Thanks in advance!

[Wh15ky]

My Move settings are:

Deadzone width: 0%
Deadzone height: 0%
Crosshair sensitivity: 20%
Turn speed: 70%
Lock assist: none
Zoom: hold
Crouch: hold

I also exagerate my aim a little when calibrating, aiming just a couple of inches off the screen to each side.

I didn't really spend that long playing with the settings before I settled for these though, so there may be some tweaking to do yet. I've certainly become better with it since using it online so I may try upping the sensitivity a bit for my next session.

[GodofwarGoty]

these is the best comparation both games are great killzone 2 and 3 are my favourite First person shooters and halo is looking good there both silimaire in ways and there both flagship titles for there systems killzone 3 and halo reach are the best of the best

[Kalowest]

A very nice unbiased comment.

[KeiserSosay4788]

agree, someone that likes an exclusive(avatar) who isn't butthurt because a game is compared to another exclusive on their platform of choice...rare these days...bubble

P.S. I traded my 360 for a slim and PC:p

[Solid_Snake-]

very fair comment.

[RIP_Weazel]

It's good to see common sense taking hold and dues paid to both games. I love Killzone 3, and although i've not played Halo:reach, it looks like multiplayer gold.

[DarkSpawnClone]

yeah I agree its all a matter of opinion,and personally I think if you haven't played one of these games I don't think you can really judge it for good or for worse.Halo has amazing gameplay and i love the bright colors(too many games are dark and gritty these days,having lots of color is refreshing),where as killzone 3 has top of the line graphics for a console shooter and i know a lot of people are loving it with PS move,both games have my respect as a gamer.

[Counter Strike]

and Halo 3 , really fun to play and competitive with all the mlg stuff... Kz3 online is good... the best i bad.

[theonlylolking]

Halo Reach PWNS halo 3 and KZ3 is better than halo reach.

[DarkSpawnClone]

XD am i the only one who likes Halo 3 more then reach..both games are great tho! maybe its just all the memory's of halo 3 i have.. man those where good times lol i love running people with the vehicles in halo they where the most satisfying kills ever XD

[citan]

Boys comparing their penises again. Well, not even theirs.

[SlyFoxC]

man that was a very cool video!!! that killzone 3 song is amazing! i should buy it lol!

but way to go with that that video!

[Dogs_PinoyPOOD]

yeh i like the new Killzone 3 epic theme somng. bak in Killzone 2 the theme song or OST was more of a military style

[mygd]

Wow that is a nice and well edited video, no matter which game is better...

[InTheKnow]

.
Whoever put that video together was very careful to stick to certain video clips. Halo has far more diverse game play and locations. A terrific hierarchy of enemies that don't exist in KZ 3. A great variety of vehicles and also use of the jet pack.

More to the point, Halo Reach had a single player, 4 player co-op, Firefight, Forge AND AWARD WINNING MULTI-Player.

Halo reviewed well and has a great meta-critic score as well

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

Selling 8+ million and winning some awards from those that didn't ignore the mega franchise. This video shows the award they won for graphics.

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

Halo as a franchise is on a great footing

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

[cochise313]

It's hard to compare these two because the gameplay is so different from each other. I get my ass kicked in halo a lot, but I fair pretty well in KZ. I like them both because they're not the coockie cutter fps's.

[telekineticmantis]

Don't give this website hits, don't even watch the video, stop supporting the flame bait articles PLEASE. They are both great and different games, it's even posiible to play both and enjoy them, they are different enough.

[Aarix]

So far there isnt much hate on here. its surprising.

[BrianG]

Liking both, haven't played Reach yet, played Halo 3 and Wars. I actually thought Halo Wars was kinda cool, reminded me of End War.

I might pick up Reach, or ask my bro to since its his Xbox. He stopped buying them after Halo 3.

KZ3 is awesome for anyone wondering. Gameplay short, yea, but awesome, hell yeah. Better than repetitive "filler" content to extend the campaign, which I felt was done a bit in KZ2.

[RyuDrinksTheDew]

they both look great!

no need to pick.

[GooZe]

halo reach sucks. they have become worse ever since halo 2. killzone 3 was fun for what i played of it

[Aarix]

They are Both undoubtfully amazing games. These two FPS make this generation nothing short of amazing. Sure I'll admit KZ3 Looks better than Halo in many aspect and Halo alone looks very amazing. I may had more fun with the halo franchise than the kz one but thats only my opinion.

[jim00zzxx]

yet again bungie shows us how some developers are able to get alway with sell a bucket load of old trash, because there are so many fanboys.
just like Deus ex, halo feels and sometimes looks like a 7 year old game.
these blind fanboys are destroying any incentive for companies to push the boundaries of gameplay and graphics.

[SixZeroFour]

yea...forget that bungie is still constantly supporting the games multiplayer by putting out new playlist updates every month (new one coming out march 29th) and that it already shipped out with a ton of features at release, lets just forget all of that and complain about their game cause "it doesnt look good" /sarcasm

[jimbone79]

God I hate it when fanboy talk bullshit like him. Halo reach looks good. Does it look as good as KZ3? No, but it looks very good in its own right. I also noticed something I would have never noticed without a side by side comparison like this. Reach's explosions are much better than KZ3's in my opinion. More debris goes flying, here's more particle effects, and the overall BOOM is just bigger. I would have never guessed that. Back to my point, Halo: Reach looks really good. Anyone who says otherwise has not played it and seen the shields visible on all the characters on the screen that have one, while 30 separate people are all shooting at each other, and every needle and energy blast that fly’s by has its own light source, while a phantom overhead it being shot up by a stolen Ghost, then a Warthog driven by 2 of your coop buddies jumps over you just to ram into the group of enemies that were jumping out of the Phantom the Ghost was shooting at. Yea, Reach is fu$%ing awesome. Not to say KZ3 isn't, just to let the fanboys know they have no clue what they're talking about.

[josephayal]

KZ3>KZ2>REACH

[SixZeroFour]

in terms of?

[jimbone79]

Again, in terms of fanyboyism. They have just never played both. See my post above and tell me if you've ever seen something like that in KZ2 or 3. I haven't. I am by no means saying you have to like Halo more than KZ, or vice versa. I am say you don’t know what you’re talking about and IMHO Reach is 100x's more fun than KZ could ever be.

Reach > Halo3 > Halo2 > Halo:CE > BS > CRYSIS2 > KZ2 > KZ3 In fun factor and replayability

[BK-201]

@jim, you obviously don't have a PS3 so don't even bother.

[jimbone79]

BK-201
LOL, how are you going to tell me what I own. Bitch I have a PS1,2,&3, Xbox, 360, NES, SNES, Genesis, N64, Atari 2600, PSP, DS, GBA, Wii, and even a GameCube. Don't come in here like you know me, and tell me what I own. You don't have a 360, or PS3 so why the fuck are you even on this site? I do have both KZ3 and Reach, and I can tell you right now for a fact Reach has been played in my house a lot more than KZ3, and I am just talking about since KZ3 came out. To me it's just more fun plain and simple. There are more opinions more game types, a bigger community I could go on and on, but please don't come in here and tell me what I do and do not own.

[Masterchef2007]

I havent played either so i cant comment on gameplay,

But as to graphics Killzone 3 looks a lot better than Halo: Reach

Just my opinion.

[Convas]

Own Halo: Reach. Awesome!

Will soon own Killzone 3. Double Awesome!

Unbiased against either because they both happen to be totally unique Sci-Fi First Person Shooters?

Complete and total Winning.

Also, when will people learn that there is a difference between Graphics it's most traditional sense and ART STYLE.

[mayberry]

imho after playing halo ce/2/3/a little odst. And killzone 1/2/3, the killzone series gets my nod because of the more realistic feel! I love halo's gameplay, but, fanboy's seem to discredit killzone's UNIQUE gameplay as well. I always hear how the killzone series is "generic" "predictable" etc... ...but i have been gaming since 1978, and killzone's "gameplay" is what i have been waiting for as a gamer!
The combination of 7.1 surround sound, intelligent A.I., bullet hits, online, visuals, mechs(exo suits), art direction etcc... ...really does it for me! there are some issues, i.e. dialogue, screen loading pauses etc... nothing "game breaking".
hope for a KILLZONE 4!
