This just proves how unimportant screen resolution actually is, despite all the talk about HD.

The HD version is just sharper.

I am amazed how small the difference is.

Obviously you are not a fan of the series, but if you were would you pay 40$ for a blurry mess SD game from the ps2 era?   I perfer to have the HD version for it's sharper textures due to AA, vivid colors, and Solid frame rate.  I know you did not say this slimebeast, but I find it "funny" when wii only owners complain about remakes when every other game they buy on the wii "is" a remake with NO enhancements what so ever (gamecube to wii not that much of a difference IMO).  It is like the pot calling the kettle black.  This is obviously a game for those of us (me) who did not get to play God of War last generation (I had an xbox) and trophy whores like myself (guilty).

Of course I always prefer the best grafix possible, but Im not a big fan of putting resources into resolution, and I argue about this all the time with PC fans too.

For example, look at the small thumbnails in my sig. Even though theyre minimal, there's certain obvious qualities beyond the resolution that instantly show they are current gen grafix.

There's so many grafix effects that are far more important than resolution. Resolution is extremely over-rated.

Yeah but in the case of a last gen SD game that was good looking years ago, would someone really buy this if it did not have any enhancements? Probably not, but we do agree that resolution is the the only thing that makes this game look smoother (they did not bump the texture quality, they only did 4x AA and v-synced it at 60 frames per second).  But as you have said it is not enough to wow some, but for me at least it is a first time to play a game I missed last generation (I would at least call it the definative version).
