I am not expecting resistance to be a new Haze, but i believe it will not offer something revolutionary to the FPS as Call of Duty series does year after year...

Gears 2 wont have Halo numbers, it's just too bloody.

So it should outsell it but not by much.

I expect GOW2 to sel about 7 million maybe 8 million copies. Resistance 2 I expect 3 million.

There isn't much that's revolutionary about Resistance 2's multiplayer.  It's essentially just playing "mine's bigger than yours" with CoD with regard to how many people can be on a battlefield simultaneously.  People can claim 'launch game' to try and assume there will be an automatic jump from the good Resistance 1 into AAA territory for Resistance 2, but wasn't Halo a launch title?

Are there any decent examples of a launch title score mid-eighties and then the next title become a revolutionary AAA game?  I think what they are doing with 8-person online co-op will be more impressive, assuming they are capable of properly scaling difficulties and dealing with lag.

In any case, broad community and critical opinion pegged Gears multiplayer (and single-player) as being better, and Epic will only improve on it, so Resistance 2 has a lot of catching up to do.

Graphically speaking we haven't seen much of either title.  Gears 2's single-player looks like a minor step up graphically but a huge step up in terms of things going on and scale.  Resistance's 2's multiplayer looked very graphically unimpressive.

I reckon graphically speaking:

Single player: Gears 2< Resitance 2

Multiplayer: Gears 2 > Resistance 2.

Gameplay:

Gears 2 > Resistance 2. 

@Starcraft For the first resistance, insomniac recieved dev-kits in january, 9 months before launch. With more time, as they have proven again and again they can make an AAA game

can u play co-op story mode on resistance2, with a buddy, like the first one? or is it only online co-op?

Er, link?

And you will find if you look at the statistics that Insomniac don't have any AAA shooters on the market.  Ever. 

GeoW2 is a better quality and better selling game. But @ starcaft Resistance 1 and R2 were and will be AAA shooters I don't get what an avarage score sais.
