Forums - Gaming - Resistance 2 vs Gears 2 "in game graphics"

sieanr on 15 August 2008

Two different types of games, so comparing graphics isn't entirely fair.

R2 will probably have a better draw distance with more going on screen at once.

GOW2 will have higher resolution textures and better detailed environments.

Which one looks the most blurry (or without textures)? Looks pretty much the same to me.

 



Random game thought :
Why is Bionic Commando Rearmed 2 getting so much hate? We finally get a real game and they're not even satisfied... I'm starting to hate the gaming community so f****** much...

There are some shots from the rooftop of the chicago level with a really long draw distance, although the buildings are simplistic both in geometry and texture. Really though you have to wait until the games release to start comparing things.

One thing about the R2 shot is that they dumbed down what the Chicago Theater really looks like.

Honestly, gears looks better graphically. As far as how it plays, its anyone's game.

Yeah, I totally agree with you. Watching a game in motion is usually better than seeing a bunch of still images. Still, what better things can we do before both games release? xD

R2 wins...... Its like comparing BF2 with 50% draw distance and BF2 with 80%. There is a good bit of difference.

Actually, I'd like to see that. I want to compare both so I know if it's really that different, like you say, compared to what these two screenshots show me.

If only I could find that rooftop screenshot...

well for short notice I found this video comparing Mario Galaxy and Sunshine. There are a ton of points where its obvious that Galaxy has a greater draw distance then Sunshine.
