There's no doubt that Killzone: PS3 is looking fantastic, but can it really challenge Halo 3 in the battle of the shooters in 2007? 1Up.com are suggesting that the two shooters will be going head to head this Spring, when Sony release a full demo of Killzone, whilst Halo 3 begins its beta phase on Xbox 360.
Halo 3 already has a distinct advantage, because the franchise has an impeccable track record. The Halo games have become well known for the high quality of their graphics, gameplay and physics, whereas Killzone, despite the pre-release hype in which it was dubbed the 'Halo Killer', failed to impress with its frame rate problems, jumpy controls, and numerous glitches. Of course, the developers now have the power of a next-gen console in order to get it right and once again Sony fans are hoping that it will prove to be as great as Bungie's first person shooter.
In what's shaping up to be one of the greatest years in videogame history, with the release of titles such as Supreme Commander, Assassin's Creed, Crysis, Alan Wake and Spore, PS3 and Xbox 360 fans will be keeping a close eye on the battle of the first-person shooters.
Which game do you think will win the war? Head over to the forums and let us know.
