Especially Manhattan scenes took their place in the game history. Sunshine coming between skyscrapers, entrance of Manhattan Metro became unforgettable for video game fans.
Other impressive 3D Ps3 game is Gran Turismo 5. Each Gran Turismo is a hit and sell record guaranteed so GT doesn’t need to work so hard for a new 3D Gran Turismo game. But they do and they created the most realistic and detailed racing game ever. It’s a complete and strange feel to drive a Aston Martin DB7 or Honda Accord because everything so detailed that maybe none of real trims may include so more options in it. It’s possible to say that Gran Turismo set a new standard for 3d Video games and it’s especially hard for other video games because while other 3D racing game offer incredible 30 FPS 3D performance, Gran Turismo is offering 60 frames per second.

It’s hard to make a comparison but Wipeout 3D is offering a deeper feel of speed than Gran Turismo in some races. SCE Studio Liverpool supported 3D feel with drawing tunnels for hoover crafts which is sure that feeling speed is easier in closed areas. Sony sold Wipeout HD with Sony Bravia and it boosted the sell rates also.
Each Killzone game became the game of the year but Killzone 3 has a special place with its 3D graphics. When it’s announced in E3, people believed that era of technology came. Especially atmosphere of Killzone 3 3D is unbelievable.
