Well, it might have (and hopefully will have) taken them four years to get it together, but this…looks…wonderful…

Outside of a couple of strange death throes (totally understandable for a game that has another year to go), I think this is the footage to beat at this point.

I’ll admit, the new Gears of War 2 footage is luscious as well, but there’s a certain cinematic delivery in KZ2, along with some stunning lighting effects that just beg to be awarded the World’s Best Graphics badge. I would like to see some updated footage of water and weather effects for KZ2 to give my final verdict, but this is great stuff, people.
