There is no difference other then the color of both sets are different, looks like they touched up the life/magic bar, but that's about it. Textures are the same, lighting is the same, models are the same, shadows are still a bit blocky.... yeah its the same.

I really don't know why people try to "compare" things by changing colors and resolutions, you know in science there is such a thing as a control, dear lord its a basic principal, you can't compare two sets unless there is a controlled variable, changing the color and then saying ZOMG LOOK HOW BIG THE DIFFERENCE IS, it's just unreliable data.

Actually, the PS3 version is clearly sharper and higher resolution.  That's the point I think most are missing - the games been given a resolution hike, better AA, etc. so it will look smooth on an HD TV rather than jaggy, with sharper textures.  But looking at an image that size you're not going to see that well represented.  Zoom in on the images to get the real picture - oh, someone's already done that.

See?  This is about making the game HD in terms of resolution, AA, etc. not re-doing the core engine, etc. so the models and so forth are going to look mainly the same - but sharper.

I'm guessing you also missed the point I made that said changing resolutions and color is the worst way to "compare" screenshots, if you're wanting to say it's the exact same thing except higher resolution, then say that.  Higher resolution and looking better are two totally different things, and saying there's a "huge difference" is simply absurd.  Higher resolution and higher AA can be done in an emulator and already has.

Nothing has changed at all except for the obvious changes to resolution, if you want to prove something seriously changed play the PS2 version in 1080p or play the PS3 version in 480p, in fact if I remember right the PS2 Gow was one of the few games on the PS2 to support higher "HD resolutions" by upscaling.

And to be clear, I'm talking about looking better on an HD TV - a higher resolution will make it look better than PS2 version upscaled - which is what the upgrade is all about.  Resolution respective to the display device absolutely makes a game look better - unless you think the exact same visual image with clear jaggy edges and a slight blurriness is better or equal to a sharp image with clean lines.

Also, I made it clear there ISN'T a huge difference because the focus is on HD resolution and making it look clean on an HD display, not upgrading the game wholesale - i.e. in my first post I pointed out the difference isn't huge and people don't seem to be looking at what the upgrades about.  I feel you didn't properly read my post.
