This game does not have bump-mapping. PS2 can't do bump-mapping. Hell, the PS2 has the same amount of VRAM as the N64. I'm surprised the textures look so good.

Actually, I think the PS2 CAN do bump-mapping, but I'd have to do some reasearch to be sure, and I'm lazy.
Anyway, the reason that Killzone looks so good is that the dev team has created an engine that makes models loose polygons as they move into the distance, ad gain polys as they get closer. What this means is that we get some great looking characters and textures and environments, but that it doesn't overtax the system.
