What Killzone looked like before it was Killzone

The E3 2005 trailer for Killzone 2 quickly became well-known (infamous,
even) for its supposedly unatainable levels of in-game graphical
prowess. But the initial trailer for the game that would become the
original Killzone has been much less well known ... until this past week at GDC Europe.

Games Managing Director Hermen Hulst showed off the circa-1999 concept
video in a keynote speech in Cologne earlier this week, calling it a
"showcase of technical competence" prepared for their first meeting with
Sony. Even though Hulst admits there's "nothing really 'Killzone'
about it" at this early stage (for instance, the Helghast and their
glowing eyes don't even make a cameo appearance) we thought it was an
interesting look at the pre-history of one of Sony's biggest exclusive
franchises. To see the video in full, follow us past the break.
