wrt the ps2 - i was talking about sony's claims that it could render Toy Story in real time, and the upgraded FFVIII dance sequence which was also supposedly "real time". sony have been pulling that crap for time immemorial.
as for the killzone video, even the
wording was sus:
Question: "Is the Killzone sequence a fair example of what people can expect from realtime gameplay on PLAYSTATION 3?" (Playstation UK)
Answer: "It's basically a representation of the look and feel of the game we're trying to make," (Jan-Bart Van Beek, game director of the PS3 Killzone at Guerrilla Games)
so all that really means is it's what they'd like to do but we may have to wait for technology to catch up in five years or so. if ever a question begged a direct yes or no answer, that was it. but instead, we get a wishy-washy get-out-of-jail answer for when the finished game fails to meet the pre-rendered CGI animation (which they hope everyone will have forgotten by then).
the more i think about it, the more the sony "launch" just doesn't add up. i think they know what they want to do, but i don't think they're as far along in doing it as they imply.
EDIT: spelling mistakes

Heh, you're so cynical !
I dont think they're trying to fool us. Those Killzone graphics we've seen so far arent hugely more advanced than Half Life 2 on the PC IMO. In fact, id compare them to HL2 on any high end pc, so they're quite believable. They just look much more advanced because of the extra power of the PS3.
Of course theres always the chance they'd have to decrease the graphical effects somewhat, be it down to poor programming and not getting the full capabilities out of the system, or simply because they thought they'd be able to keep those graphics whilst delivering the full game then realised they cant - something would have to be sacrificed.
Whether Sony were lying the first time around is debatable, but this time round if Sony are, then so are Microsoft. The Xbox 360's graphics are just as jaw dropping.

Im the same, but i do find the PS3's capabilities very believable because we've seen similar graphical effects from recent games on the PC.

Don't forget, nvidia admitted this week that the rsx graphics chip doesn't even exist yet. They haven't finished it!

ive seen ff7 (best game EVER!) remake for ps3, its like watching a movie, each person has incredible detail, clothes blow in the wind, cars blow out fumes etc, they are amazing graphics. Also seen PS3 at E3 (i think its E3) where they demonsrate it, its fantastic

All those small details are present in the PS2 and PS1 though.
With the PS3 we should expect much more though than simply better graphics and effects. We should expect much more complex events, such as in a Grand Theft Auto game where every person in the street has their own face, or can talk uniquely, unlike current games where a set amount of cloned people walk the streets.
