Forums - Sony - GOW 1+2 VS REMASTERS ! HUGE difference !

No seriously. Which one is the PS3 version? I am not trying to be a dick but I am genuinely curious. I cannot see a difference, and now I want to know. I compared them in full resolution, and then asked the question. Giving me the same pictures again doesn't change anything.

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.

The video really shows the difference between the two. I wont be buying the games because I already own them but $40 for these two games is a bargin. I just hope S-E does the same thing with FFX same goes for MGS2 & MGS3 by Konami!!!

@people that don't see a difference:

God of War Collection is just an "enhancement" over the originals, not a remake. In this case it means that they upped the framerate to a stable 60fps, a resolution of 1280x720P and 2 or 4xAA. So, if you look at the screenshots, not the small ones of course...so click on it, than you clearly see that the "enhanced" PS3 version of GoW1 and 2 is WAY smoother, more sharp and more clear than the PS2 version.

Are you serious? Try clicking on the images for larger versions if you haven't already, then focus on a particular point. One image should look much clearer than the other.



Looking at them in the small size is actually probably the more interesting comparison. It shows there is pretty much no difference other than an increase in resolution.

This is the gist of it. Unlike the originals, the PS3 version will also be firmly locked at 60 FPS and from what I've seen, it seems to be v-locked as well (meaning no torn frames, though I could easily be wrong on this).

The big difference here will be when playing it on an HDTV. The new remastered version will look incredibly crisp and sharp, whereas the originals will be a blurry mess.

And now I am getting pissed that Europe isn't getting this until next year! I want it right now ;_;



Huge different, zomg!

Or not. But looks better for my eyes. I will buy this, nothing can stop that. Never played god of war more than CoO-demo for PSP.

I love the genre.
