I have the mag and in the same issue they have a preview of Gears 2 and are talk about how amazing it is. Hope I will be able to enjoy both games at Christmas.
Holy sh!t, that monster is huge. Holy sh!t, how are we suppose to take that guy down? Edit: "Bullets and Rockets are no use against the Leviathan. To beat this giant, you have to trick him into walking near a booby trapped bridge. Unfortunately, it's not a foolproof plan"
all streaming perfectly and not looking subpar but keeping amazing detail and texture, at the same time. resistance 2 scale> GT4 anyday. :) this just put a huge smile on my face. and at e3 we'll see the updated version of all of what they showed for a few days ago. on GT.com
The Leviathan looks awesome. I can't wait to play Resistance 2. Insomniac makes sweet games and R2 should be as great as there other games if not better.
@ pwnmaster- i think turok 64 was the last biggest boss i seen in a fps. them bosses were huge!
@ article- now thats what i call an invasion! F*** YEAH!
@ below- i like the new turok though. hes like the 'Rambo' of Jurassic Park! but a 400ft monster.....WOW that would kill it. i would love to see that sh*t tearing through buildings right above me: D.....R2 BABY!!! YEAH!!!!
i just hope that monster isnt easy to kill you know like in aome games where you see some big @ss creature and you kill it in like one shot i hate those moments but knowing isomiac they wouldnt make it that easy
Because bigger multiplayer = 60. Bigger = Playing in cities, not just blocked off streets with low polygon cars. Bigger bosses = 300ft tall
Wait Gears 2 increased the multiplayer to 2 more players right? lol.. Cant even offer 16-18 player modes like most multiplayer games. I dont understand why considering UT3 on the PS3 has 16. I get that people want to pretend that 5vs5 is perfect for online, but you better bet if they were going for "bigger better and more badass" they would have done more if the 360 had the juice left in it. In true microsoft fashion they would do 61 players online if they could lol.
Resistance 2 needs more graphical effects to be a serious contender for GOTY. The graphics are lacking at this stage, I feel. Real time lighting doesn't seem to be present here and neither does normal or bump mapping and if anyone disagrees you prove to me otherwise.
R2 Has a HDRI lighting setup, much like MGS4, and Uncharted. You can tell -- Well you clearly cant. But others can see that its "real time", because when you watch footage... you see lighting interacting with the environment in "real time" perhaps you mean baked lighting? Non interactive lighting, like in we have in COD4. Shadows are cast onto the floor permanently, you cant interact with them, because the shadows were saved with the rest of the detail for the texture. Only the characters and hero object shadows are actually cast.
Lack Of Normal Map or bump mapping...
Well.. Seeing as how you clearly don't know the difference between either of these.. and that you have no clue what to look for when you do see them.. I'll go ahead and point them out for you since you are a total moron:
You can see bump/normal maps in the form of divits(bumps) and other holes in the model. The PS3 doesn't rely heavily on normal maps to fake detail because you can use the actual polygons with a slight influence of normal maps to complete the object. Which is here:
The wrinkles around the eyelids, the veins around the nose area, the skull detail is all normal mapped. The teeth/Armor divisions are all polygons. You can trace the outline of the object to see the actual geometry. Usually has rough edges because its still optimized to run as a game asset.
You're trying to prove a point off of magazine scans? Is that what you're trying to do? hahahahahahahahahahhaah, please. We know you're a Sony nipple bender but c'mon. This is just silly, even for you.
Resistance has none of the above and you're not even sure, as I am not either, if those are real time or cutscenes. Truths for the house, rack daddy.
Epic is just going to milk the Series like they did with Unreal Tournament III and get boring but damn that thing is so F'ing huge and humongous this game kills Epics game!
this monster even kills the monster in Epics game that has that weapon attache to its back!
Am I the only one that feels like this game is like a Clover Field movie only in the 50's??.
Like a cloverfield movie, huh? Man it amazes me how people forget so easily. Movie monsters made it big in the 30's, 40's and 50's man. Cloverfield was lame as hell and didn't do the genre any favors.
that colverfeild feel to it because of this monster. I am Legend with the gouls and War of the worlds with the Chimerian tech used. Overall it really feels like a very,very bleak situation and atmosphere for the human race.
Funny how none of those movies are original ideas or even movies. They're all remakes and clover field could even be considered one as well. Pretty sad state Hollywood is in right now, really. Maybe they need to credit the real work force a bit more than their golden boys and girls.
the more enemies on screen at once the better imo. I'm looking forward to the part were all the acrobatic chimera are coming at you. gameplay looks intense so far.
- each sentinal have their own personalities and back stories that will factor in prominently into the games story.
Its obvious that insomniac are going for the full house with R2. Scale,Story,Physics,graphics,M P,Co-op,community etc. I am exceptionally pleased that they are focusing alot on the story. I am 100% sure this game will rock this year and will be remebered as truly one of the great FPS of our time. Mark my words. R2 is taking everything that made R1 great and take it to the next level. Insomniac FTW
and not a damn other dev can touch them for shear reputation and technical know how. KZ2 maybe awesome and will probably deliver with how they are out sourcing this game to achieve that fabled look. but it's INsomniac who's running the show and they're reputation speaks it. gears of war simply cant touch this. neither can Gears 2. 100 rail shooter fodder enimies on screen is about as interactive as NPCs in Assassins creed. i'll take those resistance grims over the stagnant Gears 2 guys.
HOLY F*CK!!!
sweeeeeeeeeeeeeet
Play b3yond
Holy sh!t, that monster is huge. Holy sh!t, how are we suppose to take that guy down?
Edit:
"Bullets and Rockets are no use against the Leviathan. To beat this giant, you have to trick him into walking near a booby trapped bridge. Unfortunately, it's not a foolproof plan"
Well there we go. :)
The Leviathan looks awesome. I can't wait to play Resistance 2. Insomniac makes sweet games and R2 should be as great as there other games if not better.
