Resistance 2 Official Screenshots Released

The screenshots were released over at the official PlayStation website.

[zambrota]

60 players online. 8 player coop

super realistic graphics

PS3 FTW

KILLZONE FTW

RESISTANCE FTW

[decapitator]

These are most certainly beautiful. Wow, look at the polygon count on that Chimera with the armor on. Very impressive stuff going on there. Now all that is left is an official video and we are all set.

EDIT: Added my personaly favorite.

[C_SoL]

this looks hella good & it ain't even polished up yet...

EDIT:Does anybody know if alot of people play the map packs they released for R:FOM

[zambrota]

just look at the lighting and that damn grass

OMGGG

[decapitator]

It looks absolutely amazing. Imagine if the grass and other things moved when touched like in crysis. That would just be just about the coolest thing yet. Am more hyped for this game than I was before. Wow.

[rofldings]

No bots to be found in this thread. Just disagrees. :]

All that's needed now is an official announcement of Crysis coming to PS3 and my bank account will reach -$59.99 :(

Next fight confirmed: Resistance 2 vs Gears of Wars 2; Gays of War has zero chance now that Insomniac has their grip on the PS3 (Though I will still play GaysOW on PC when it is released).

[n_n]

simply beautiful eye candy! insomniac is dropping something nuclear soon

[cmrbe]

Decapitor. There is no question that they have completely outdone themselves this time. And the game is at least 6-9 months away :):).

[hazeblaze]

The most amazing thing about these screenshots is that they're the same ones from the magazine... and in the article Insomniac emphasized the fact that they have been focusing fully on gameplay and have not started to "pretty up the game yet"! Can you imagine how good this game is going to look once they've began to focus attention on polishing up the graphics!!!

[sonarus]

look at the difference between the visuals in resistance 1 and 2. I mean that jst shows how much power is left untapped in ps3. The game hasnt even been polished yet and it already looks good. Then lets not forget the fact that its going to be running on an updated version of insomniacs engine which last ran and 60fps and insomniac themselves said all their games after ratchet would run at 60fps. Not confirmation that it will be locked at 60fps but insomniac did say all their games running on their engine would run at 60fps

[DARKKNIGHT]

PLAYSTATION DOMINATION.

[Pain]

2nd gen PS3 titles Oh My!! 360 can only dream!

[masterg]

Can anyone confirm that this is In-game shots?
I'm not saying it's not it's just unbelievebly beautiful.

[i_like_ff7]

I wanna kill some chimera now!

[MailMan]

Oh well,at least they've got UNDERTOW...aha ha HA!

Jump OUT and Play B3YOND,January 28th=DOOMSDAY for Xbots.

[Coffin87]

maybe you gonna hate me now, .. what's happening on january 28th??

[Sevir04]

i cant wait till they show this off at GDC with their SPU presentation as well. amazing Insomniac has officially lost it they are essencially the best devs ever. ^^ awesome stuff

[zambrota]

I think Resistance 2 might even become the biggest game of 2008.

But whatever it is the fight will be among mgs4,ff13,kz2,r2 and

4 games all of them being ps3 exclusive will fight for GOTY crown in 2008

amazing feat indeed

[hazeblaze]

actually it seems to be pre-alpha! they have finished the single player level designs but have not molded each level together into a complete game yet... the lead dev said that they were focusing only on gameplay at this point & how the levels tie in to the story... they haven't even began to focus on polishing graphics or playtesting the game as a whole yet... still have nearly a year in development!

[Coffin87]

your list is very true, but you forgot one game: gta iv.

[PR0NE]

GTA4 is going to compete against MAFIA 2, and when comparing them GTA 4 looks like cartoons, i am not bashing gta, i played every iteration of it but i don't think it has what it takes to be GOTY unless they do smth revolutionary with the game,,, now i am hyped RESISTANCE 2 AND MAFIA 2, 2 GREAT GAMES FTW

[MK_Red]

Incredibly awesome find. The game looks sick and we all know how innovative and crazy Insomniac gets with it's sequels (Anyone remember how mindblowing R&C: Up Your Arsenal was?).

[TheHater]

I do. I stayed up all night play R&C: UYA. That game was one of the best i ever played

[MK_Red]

Ture. The game was a blast. I haven't gotten a PS3 so couldn't play R&CF: TOD but if Up Your Arsenal is any indicating, R2 could indeed go way beyond the original.

[techie]

Holy sh*t.

[fenderputty]

exactly...

R2 pwns real life CONFIRMED

@MK

R2 looks as realistic as real life if not better. It is looking like a sci-fi alien movie . dont you think

[MK_Red]

"R2 pwns real life CONFIRMED"
Gotta disagree here. The game looks really good but nowhere near GT5 in terms of realism. Also, Killzone 2 is still better looking IMO but the enviroments of R2 look indeed much bigger and more crowded.

[MK_Red]

Update:
I do believe it looks superb but the only game to ever reach an unmatched level of realism IMO is Gran Turismo 5. Killzone 2 is also mindblowing and for now, those two are still my picks for the best graphics ever.
In R2, you can still see that it's a game even though beyond stunning but in case of Gran Turismo 5, I saw a lot of people that couldn't distinguish GT5's gameplay from real life driving.

Sorry for the double post.

[Ju]

I disagree MK. There is so much missing compared to R2, which lets it reach this high visual level. The levels are empty compared to R2. Just take the time and count the different kind of grass textures in the close up, the polycount in the stalkers and chimera. The level of AA thru out the whole scene, lightning, shadowing, etc. It is simply amazing. Amazing that I have a hard time believing these are in game. However, there are some "shortcomings" in those shots (e.g. pretty visual short range texture resolution issues) which you wouldn't have if you would render that scene statically. But those make me believe, this is really rendered by the game engine.

[MK_Red]

Ju, R2 is indeed much more crowded and enviroments seem bigger but still, it doesn't wow me as much as Killzone 2 and GT5. Just my personal opinion.

[KidMakeshift]

At least they smile for the pictures

[HardcoreGamer]

it is very gears like , dont you think, but then again its always good to see games getting better by a margin, this is very delightful especially after playin ratchet toold of destruciton

[mullet]

OMFG!!!!! WTF WTF! Insomniac delivers yet again. However, if Resistance 2 already look this good at alpha, then imagine what Killzone 2 looks like now. I mean, last time we saw it it was only at pre-alpha stages. I expect Killzone 2 to look A LOT more realistic than this but Resistance 2 will probably end up being better due to INSANE multiplayer features. We'll see though.

[zambrota]

http://www.psu.com/screensh...

http://www.psu.com/screensh...

Resistance>>>>> ;real life

[mullet]

What the hell?

Oh nvm.

[Blademask]

are wet.

from urine

because i pissed myself

due to these screenshots being amazing.

Killzone2.. better beef up their game.

[Big Jim]

LOL!
I thought Blademask was an xbot though. Maybe I'm thinking about Bloodmask.

[mullet]

You're thinking Bladestar. Or yeah, maybe Bloodmask.

[Amnesiac]

I like purple.

[mentalboy11]

its like math.

Bloodmask x bladestar = blademask

i.e. two negatives = 1 positive

[Hydrollex]

Bye Halo, Bye Gears of War. Bye Xbox 360

[Baba1906]

as nmuch as i love my ps3 and dont have a 360 your comment doesnt make any sence. why should halo and gears say goodbye 0o.

[travelguy2k]

is saying bye to those games because he won't be playing them anymore.

[Vulcan Raven]

That is the best looking game I have ever seen!!! I still enjoy the first one, it is the only reason i got into FPS, before I only liked RPG's and racers.

[sajj316]

As the saying goes, "Business has just picked up".

This is what I call first gen to 2nd gen transition! The scans don't do these screens justice. Exponential improvement!!!

Only on PS3 :)

[HeroOfCows]

Wouldn't this be a 2nd to 3rd gen transition?

[JVIDICAN]

this is ps3s 2nd year on the market so its considered 2nd gen

[Jamegohanssj5]

This looks pretty darn cool and you all know I'm up for PS3 exclusives.

[INehalemEXI]

Right on, Looking Great.

[smokeb4]

first day buy for me

[Bubble Buddy]

everyone say it with me, Insomniac 4ever!

[Bill Gates]

This game looks SICK!!!!

[sajj316]

Wait ... Did you hear that?

I hear a select few members on N4G crying after looking at these screens. Ahhhh poor things. You still have Halo 3.

[Lord Anubis]

I hope we get to see more at the Game Developer's Conference in the Moscone.

[kurochi]

uh.... someone please tell me what to do with this hard-on that I have after looking at the pics..... LOL

[mullet]

LMFAO

[sajj316]

Go find a woman now!!!!

[HMM]

Bubbles for making me laugh....

[The Wood]

lol

try the memorycard slots or spooning your pad

[Azurite]

the screens are in 1920x1080?
While I prefer 720 myself, since more can be crammed into 720 than 1080 on a console, I would find it impressive if they pull 1080 off with more on screen details than RfoM.

[Blademask]

1. Anti Aliasing
2. Texture Quality (sharpness)

I never thought a single game could put an entire console to rest. But WOW... This *looks* a bit better than Uncharted.

[Regret]

Not good as Uncharted. On consoles there is no game like it (graphicly or gameplay-wise).

[Genki]

I know we're all high on Resistance kool-aid, but just stop and smell the daisies for a minute.

99.9% of all screens released by, um....ANYONE these days are touched up. These are very obviously no exception.

[The_Engineer]

don't try to spread 360 fud on the PS3, Imsomniac doesn't do fake screenshots. The only ones notorious for that were Epic with their queers of war screenshots that were doctore to makeup for the 360's limited graphical output and color palette.

[fopums]

Dont want to try and sound fanboyish, but when the first R&C screens came out a poster at myresistance.net flat out said they were not in game assests being used, and an insomniac employee, cant remember who maybe "BEAST!" I think thats his user name posted.

"the screenshots are 100% ingame" I just dont think insomniac feels the need to doctor screens, and Racthet certainly looks up to par with its screenshots.

I could research this...buts thats a bit anal rententive IMO

[Genki]

[Genki]

There's a big difference between what can be called a FAKE shot, and a touched up in-game shot.

Some of you take this fanboy stuff way too much to heart. 360 fud? Pfff, yeah...right. I'm spreading 360 fud when I don't own one of the blasted things. Did I mention anything 360 related? Sounds like someone is a bit insecure to me.

Anyway, a fake shot would be like something that was FMV and touted as gameplay. Hell, a fake shot would be a pair of idiots in costumes and called gameplay. Fake = nothing to do with the product.

Touched up screens are not a bad thing. The edits are very minimal anyway. These shots I'm sure represent the very integrity of the game, they're just a little bit smoother and are a bit easier on the eyes.

This doesn't make Insomniac dishonest, nor did I imply that...but of course, that's what people will tell me I said.

Anyway, I'm not the type that gets bent out of shape about little stuff like this. Accept it and enjoy the game, doesn't take away from the experience, everyone does it and it's never so drastic as to misrepresent the game. People get too wrapped up in the particulars.

[Skerj]

I like how they're in just the right size and aspect ratio for PS3 wallpapers. .. I can't wait for this game, Insomniac kicks ass. Now show us The Cloven!!

[Partisan]

THAT IS CRAZY

[Big Jim]

This has suddenly become my most anticipated game of 2008. Insomniac, you guys are awesome.

[HMM]

really? This beats MSG??? But I'll agree that it's too close of a call.....

[Skater]

As Mr. Griffin would say,

Freakin' Sweet!

[Honor_in_Armor]

But... but... bu... the first one's graphiks were teh suks!

haha.

I haven't played the first one but I guess I'm going to have to so I can get to fully enjoy this upcoming one!

PS.

Look how far we've coming in FPS History!

[Iron Man 2]

Welcome to the next generation of gaming people

PLAY B3YOND!

Resistance 2 is going to a*s r@pe Gears Of War 2 soo hard!;)

[Amnesiac]

Gears of Who?

[acdata]

with power of ps3
PLAY B3HIND !

[Amnesiac]

Well at least on my PS3 while I'm playing "behind", I'll actually be playing..

Unlike you. You'll be on the internet bashing the PS3 while you wait for your 360 to get back from M$ so it can RROD AGAIN.

[Mikey_Gee]

VERY NICE

[SoulReaper]

I want to some more new recent images..resistance 2 going to be amazing..

[TH3 GAM3]

These shots looks way better than the magazine shots.

[The Wood]

you're right but scans will always be swag compared to official web shots

[Doctor Strange]

Looks great. Can't wait for it to come out

[SRuN4]

* waits patiently for xbots *

i know it's just a matter of time before someone posts something off the wall..

[Skerj]

Don't call them in, it'll turn into another needless flamewar.

[CrazzyMan]

That`s pretty amazing result.
Now i want trailer. =))

[Regret]

Looks very good and it's 1080p. Not good as Uncharted tho.

[killer_trap]

this has to be the most impressive grass i've ever seen. uncharted won't hold the crown for best looking game for to long.

but if you think about it, this is the third insomniac game. so by the time naughty dog reach their third game i think it'll look even better than this.

[The Wood]

I remember the still shots from the first resistance and they looked better than they did in motion or up close. I know there will be a lot of improvements over the original I just dont want to go overboard. With killzone 2 we've seen actual gameplay and nothing yet with this. Despite that im sure that insomniacs can pull 'it' off and it seems it will be done in less than half the time. Those mf's dont sleep 4real if they tick all the gaming-boxes before the years up

PLUG

get burnout. Its better than I thought

[hazeblaze]

Actually, I thought the opposite. The first game looked significantly better in motion than they did from the screen shots... but either way, I do want to see some actual gameplay footage.

[jaaz]

Technoviking is pleased with Insomniac's offer...

[meepmoopmeep]

oooomph! goodness!

[Le-mo]

Expect to see some X-bots calling the screenshots PR.

[decapitator]

Of course is inevitable. But here is an actual screen from R1

[Honor_in_Armor]

Hey Guys if you want to know how Resistance 2 Rise of Man (or United we Fall) looks like in motion just go here:

http://www.gametrailers.com...

Ok, let me rephrase that, it's more of a slideshow video shown in HD. Don't blame me, it's not what it looks like. :)

[cmrbe]

That played Resistance 1 would agree with me that the graphics look 3 time better and yet the game will not be out at least another 6 months. I listened to their full moon podcast and they were saying that they are just making sure the game mechanics/gameplay is fun and working well before they make it pretty which is hard to believe as it is already freaking pretty. It is just amazing how they could within 2 years of the PS3 be able to produce graphics such as these. You know i never cared about the hype surrounding the PS3 as i just wanted MGS4,GOW3 and ICO3 but Sony instead released this franchise as well as HS and uncharted which have been a revelation.
Its not a secret that sony first parties like Insomniac,ND,Guerilla, Team ICO and Santa Monica share their knowledge of the PS3. If Insomniac can advance PS3 games 3 folds in two years. Imagine what Santa Monica and Team ICO will produce for ICO 3 and GOW3 in 2 years time. Man I just Love Sony. Never regretted shelling out $600 USD for my PS3 :).

[jaaz]

I think I'm going to buy another PS3. Even the uber-low PS3 <1% failure rate might be too much to risk missing out on playing these bad boys! :)

[The_Engineer]

when they say "NEXT GEN DOESN'T START TILL WE SAY SO"......

after Ratchet,Uncharted,Heavenly Sword,MGS:4, KZ2 and NOW Resistance 2......who can really argue with them??

I know it pisses bots off to be told that they and their abortion of a console maker have no relevance to true next gen gaming but I guess thats the way it goes.

[x360rulezx]

As much as I hate to admit it you're right. I bought a 360 at launch and during the time that I had it the only real next gen games are Gears and Bioshock. All the third party stuff was underwhelming until ps3.

[Marceles]

"R2 looks as realistic as real life if not better"

lol...how can something look more realistic than real life?

[mullet]

That is all.

[ravinash]

When it draws you in so much that you forget about real life.

[Spike47]

Marceles,

if you compare it to real life, u would say that the game is actually the real life picture. lol

like in gt5 theer was a quiz to distinquish real life cars from in game cars and out of 10 images along with questions I only got 7 right.

[Maddens Raiders]

slap the hell outta me (even XBots lol)!

FuC an A that's all I can say

P L A Y B 3 Y O N D

[neogeo]

Game looks washed out.
Frame rates could be choppy.
bluray is not need DVD9 could easy hold this game.
no rumble.
This is waiting!
The Cell is only good for running movies not games.
360 can do better?

Ok that was my best shot because there is no bots around.
Can anyone do better?

[sajj316]

not a whisper neogeo ... not even a whisper

[Maddens Raiders]

*reported*

j/k - I'm not going to waste a report on you. I know you're uber jealous of this bad-ass looking game and the PS3, so it's all good mate (I'll even agree with you LOL). Take care.

[kornbeaner]

PSN can't handle this game because they don't charge $50 for P2P service.
PSN will crash just looking for a game to play
Theres no Halo in the title.
No rumble = gay
RSX will chug like crazy
These screenshot are FAKE!!!
How is this game gonna be any good when the first only averaged 8.8 @whogiveafvck.com
This game is gonna get pwned by Halo 4.

Theres more but I gotta work.

HAHAHAHHAAHAHA...Stupid trolls must be hiding.

[Ri0tSquad]

If those in-game screens were took at 1080p then I'm guessing the game runs at 1080p, awesome.

[Spinitus]

can't wait to see this masterpiece in motion.

[THX7168]

I just went through all 52 comments including all of the replies to comments (totalling 80 comments) and found not a single Xbot (except for the ones that disagreed and didn't have the balls to comment).

Took a long while but I gave everyone an agree and bubbles.

Comments 24.2 and 39 didn't get an agree or bubbles from me because they didn't seem as enthusiastic as the rest of us.

UPDATE: Forgot to mention that this game looks amazing. It's funny how the Xbots got all excited for rumors of Gears 2 and a map designed on MS paint. "Gears 2 will rape Resistance 2" LMFAO. Idiots.

UPDATE 2: Comments 54 & 55 also got agrees and bubbles. Sorry but anyon after 55 will have to wait. I'll be back tomorrow morning to pass out more bubbles and agrees. Yes, I'm that excited for the game. :-)

[macalatus]

How about this for enthusiasm:

Resistance 2= ROCK 'N ROLL!!

BIG PARTY at my house the night before launch!! Free drinks and food available!! Uber hot girls will be present!! Music will be provided by rock bands THE FALL OF MAN and HALE THE CHIMERA live!! Oh yeah!!

[Genki]

That was a hoot.

So I'm wrong because I'm not saying ZOMG TEH REZIZTANCE IZ TEH ROXORZ!!!!

Sorry for keeping my composure, I tend to do that when there's sensational mass hysteria afflicting everyone. The frenzied gaiety that populates this site is akin to drug use. It feels good to be high, hallucinating, and delirious, but when reality sets in, you tend to realize that it wasn't that good and you feel lukewarm about when it's all said and done.

I am very excited about R2, I just like to keep my expectations and outlook on matters like this firmly grounded in reality. The first is among my favorites.

As far as this bubbles and agree business, keep 'em. Some folks get way too wrapped up about this site, it's features, and of course the baiting tactics of unscrupulous submitters. So long as I get my point across, I couldn't care less about having one bubble or nine, 30 disagrees or none.

[cmrbe]

The Resistance 2 screens are from this article and i have resize them to 800x600 as well as the ones from IGN. How these guy managed to upgrade the graphics from R1 to R2 in 14 months with RC with in that time amazes me.

[Ri0tSquad]

Specially when I killed an alien and zoomed in on there face, it looked clean and clear. They said they made Resistance 2 even better upclose so I couldn't imagine how good it'll look.

[Maddens Raiders]

..really shows the progress and dedication that Insomniac has to putting out a top notch product. Hold on, wait a minute...did you hear that? I thought I heard Sony just open the briefcase and buy Insomiac.... >_< (they better)

[cmrbe]

and these guys here up close in R2 is gonna be amazing.

[cmrbe]

believing that these are in-game shots and is still at least 6 months away. Freaking unbelievable. Maddens your right Sony better buy insomniac or at least give them a better deal as they owe Insomniac alot this gen.

[Michael Jackson]

wow good job! bubbles for you sir!

[cmrbe]

Look at decatiator comparison on post 1.1. His is better. I did not know about his until i finish doing this as i wanted people to see what a big leap these guys made in terms of graphics. oh and bubble to you too :)

[robbo918]

Wow....just simply WOW!!! Wonder if this is why Billy left M$? lol j/k but seriously its like Picard was hired by Sony and he just said "Number 1...MAKE IT SO!!!"

[kurochi]

wow.... we have a bona-fide trekkie here on aisle 55!!! Haven't seen one of those in awhile. I suppose when the next ST movie comes out is when I'll see them again....

[robbo918]

Yeah I admit I love the Trek. The new movie is going to be very interesting to say the least from what I have read.

[TheHater]

Holy Sh!t. I didn't expect this game to look this good at this point in development. And to think the game is 9+ months away. why do we have to wait this long?

[AshleyRiot]

Looks Awesome!!!

[cjp4eva]

@THX7168 ME ME ME I GOTZ A PS3 ME WATNZ TEH BUBLEZS!!!

[CaliGamer]

Sony has the most talented and extensive stable of developers in the industry PERIOD. This game looks insane, I am sure Warhawk 2 will outdo these numbers in some way, can't wait.
To all the deserters that got a 360, don't worry, we will accept you back as long as you have learned your lesson.

As a loyal PS brand supporter since day one, I must say that this is very good news. I am glad to see a company finally push the envelope of what next-gen is, instead of just feeding us the same old re-warmed leftovers.

This year is going to see many new changes for the PS3, after this I believe the PS3 will establish itself as the console to own where it belongs, as if it already isn't. As good as this looks, I can't wait to get my hands on MGS4, something about the MGS universe just does it for me as a gamer, it encompasses what a video game should be in my eyes, and games like R2 and KZ2 just sweeten the deal.

Kudos to all the real gamers who know where real gaming takes place.

[Maddens Raiders]

as soon as you mentioned WarHawk 2, the tiny hairs on my neck stood up. I love all of the games coming out this year for the PS3, I think everyone knows that. But WH2 will literally disconnect me from life - really bad. I might even have to get one of those pee bottles and sit it next to the sofa like I'm a long haul trucker. Sad truth.

[macalatus]

@Maddens Raiders,

Soon South Park will make WarHawk parody episode called "The SoreHawks" like the "Make Love not Warcraft" episode.

[SRuN4]

Warhawk 2 and SOCOM 4 will probably be 64 players.

[Figboy]

and to think, it's still, at the least, 9 months away!

that's 9 months development time, and true polishing doesn't really get underway until the last 3 months or so of development.

i'm expecting Resistance 2 to look even *BETTER by the time it launches.

me and my PS3 will be weeping tears of *JOY due to all the awesome gaming goodness hitting this year.

[Jamaicangmr]

Lord have mercy how in the world does Insomniac does this? It's like they always have a great game on the horizon. They seem like a developer who actually love their art.

Can't wait to load this baby up. 8 player online co-op 60 players online. The bar hasn't been raised it's not even a bar anymore Insomniac has offially made it a UFO.

[macalatus]

Dude, 60 freakin' players online will be massively insane!! I can finally look forward to the day I retire my COD4 disc.

[cputeq]

These pictures look nice.

Unfortunately, they're probably bullshots released to the media.

http://kotaku.com/345297/bu...

So, I wouldn't bet on the game looking *exactly* like the screenshots. For instance, I seriously doubt the final game will have that level of AA active...that looks on the order of 4x or 8xAA, which would be insane to try to run on a 720p(?) signal and still attempt to maintain 60fps.

I could be wrong of course (and it would be awesome if I am!), but just saying -- Either the developers have found a huge untapped potential with the PS3 or they are slightly doctored images of the game.

Go ahead, disagree with me all you want; it doesn't make what I say any less true. Anyway, I can't wait for this game to come out....it's gonna be a blast ;)

[m9105826]

I dunno, every time in the past that Insomniac has released a bullshot, they told us as it was released that it didn't use in-game assets. This has been claimed to be 100% in-game by a developer for Insomniac. And, seriously, it's Insomniac. Nobody has more experience on the PS3. Most companies struggle to get their first game out still. Resistance is hard at work on number 3 with two of the best games of this Sony generation already under their belt. I wouldn't doubt their capabilities.

@below:

Very well said! +bubbles

[Genki]

That's just the world we live in today, you have to put your best foot forward. Technically, any enhanced screen you see is still 100% in game. It still a shot taken of 100% in-game assets, it's just probably smoothed and has minor color correction, or small things of that nature.

Adding stuff, removing objects, deliberately and drastically changing things, THOSE constitute what could be referred to as a "bullshot".

I find nothing wrong with it, people blow it way out of proportion as if it's some maddeningly deceptive misrepresentation of the game. Not the case.

Think of it like writing a resume or putting a picture on a wall. You're no gonna display something in a hallway or on a board at the office of you wearing some shorts and sandals. You'll probably be in business attire.

In a resume, you're in heavy competition against others. You wanna sell yourself. It's not dishonesty if what you say is true, you simply HIGHLIGHT your strengths. No big deal, people get too caught up in the terms like "bullshot", "edited" and so on, but never stop to think about what exactly is going on.

There's no foul play at work here, folks, just relax. I think they're slightly edited and I see nothing wrong with it whatsoever. Big deal.

[The_Engineer]

then by the same token why are you even mentioning it if it's as irrelevant to the topic as you're NOW trying to make it out to be?

[bizi6498]

a screenshot always look worse than in full motion because there is smoothing by the rendering, the display and our vision that is associated with motion. this is why we should always use videos to make a visual assessment on a game but with crappy video compression or just lack of professionalism like GameTrailers's full RGB fiasco, developers are riding a fine line and I'm willing to give Insomniacs the benefit of the doubt.

that said, if this is in-game footage, my jaw just fell through 3 floors and I'm still looking for it in the rubbles...

[Area_51]

My hat goes off to these guys.....I mean I'm am just speechless over this. Just 1 month ago us sony fans where making are list of top games for 08, and this game wasn't on many list because we just didn't know, I mean we all knew there would be a R2 but already!!!! This game just jump to the top of my list for 08...And what a nice big list it is This is are year boys so lets sit back and enjoy it. Hell just 6 months ago they where saying that this machine was dead in the waters,and us die hard sony fans just knew that was not and will not ever happen, this is the year of the ps3.

I wouldn't be surprised if they started on the next R&C

[m9105826]

I'm sure the R&C team jumped into something new as soon as ToD was finished. Whether it's another sequel or a new IP has yet to be revealed.

[actas123]

Wow, amazing!

[Horny]

looks great, my most anticipated game next to MGS4

[jorellpogi]

The pictures are amazing. I will surely buy this game just like the first one. My list of PS3 must have games is getting bigger.

[risk]

*speechless*

[cjp4eva]

Shorty! :)

[Avto]

When I showed this pics to my mom she thought it was CGI film, very classy

[MUNKYPOO]

all i can say is...... wow! this will be a great year for us

[hardcorehippiez]

just wait until you see third generation games. i didnt doubt this for a 2nd the ps3 is shaping up to be just like its predecessors .remember ps1 and ps2 didnt have games that really pushed the system graphically until well into their life cycle.

[Iamback]

I still think that Killzone 2 looks much better, lets not forget when we last time saw KZ2 it was also in pre Alpha like Resistance 2 is now. Not saying that RE2 looks "ok" but KZ2 looks better, but it all comes down to gameplay. If KZ2 ends up being broken like first game, than there is no doubt RE2 will be way better.
In the end who really cares when both are coming to PS3 and guess what? Both are exclusives.

[cmrbe]

It is interesting to see them both. Killzone 2 takes a more dark and gritty cinematic movie direction but R2 seems to follow a mix between Halo and Gears approach in graphics. R2 is not as color full as Halo but not as shiny as Gears(thank god!)but the level of detail is there like gears. Either way i don't care which will look better in the end because they will both rock, first day buy and both are on the PS3 this year :)

[Ggame]

This is showing that Xbot360 will dead very soon..
Xbot360 is SUCK!!
555+

[digger18]

But!!! When are we going to see ingame graphics and not cut scene ones?

I'm a mega fan of RFOM and it's the reason why I brought the PS3.

60 player games are going to be awesome, if it don't lag like the 18 player COD4 games.

[CaliGamer]

How do you know these aren't in game images? Perhaps you underestimate what the PS3 can do. I don't think we know enough to say if these are in game or not, for sure I believe it's all rendered on the fly tho.

[BobDog]

these are ingame pictures which are also pre alpha stage,

so the final image will look better

[Kain81]

Sonys beast is on Rise

UNITED WE FALL

[KDash]

i don't need Killzone 2 anymore. Give me the damn chimera...

[Genki]

weren't we, as PS3 owners and uh...GAMERS starving for a robust library of games just as early as 5 or 6 months ago? Haven't we all been yapping about how we look forward to a return to the PS2 days of having several classics behind us with more to look forward to?

So now that a good looking game has popped onto the radar, we all of a sudden don't want the others? Am I the only person that feels like this whole "I don't need game X anymore because game Y is coming out now" contradicts everything we believe and kinda...DO as gamers? Since when did gamers shun other good games? I have very difficult time wrapping my head around this one...a VERY difficult time.

Resistance 2 coming out doesn't make Killzone any less of a spectacle. Same goes for any given group of good titles within a genre. Do you stop watching movies after you've found and declared a favorite? Stop living after you've had the best moment of your life? I just don't get this.

I'm not trying to attack or chastise you KDash, not in any way, shape, or form, this message is everyone. I'm just trying to get people to realize that gaming need not be about elitism, it's a VERY GOOD THING to own several good games.

[AngryHippo]

....Insomniac are AMAZING developers. This game will be amazing especially online, i loved the first one. Cant wait.

[JBaby343]

This game looks too good. Insomniac get my vote for developers of the next-gen at this point. With all the features this game looks to crack out along with fine tuning the looks I don't think any of us will be disappointed. Now lets see a trailer a GDC please.

P.S. Where are all the xbox people? Aren't they supposed to be here claiming how superior 360 is? I do enjoy the impersonations @ 24, 50, & 50.3

[Azurite]

since I saw the picture yesterday, there's some kind of vertical screen tearing on one of the pictures.
Anyone who may know what it could be?
http://img178.imageshack.us...

[PirateThom]

It kind of looks like the shadow is misaligned making the colours all around it look out of place, but it does look morelike the shadow from what I'm guessing is the skylight above, this is one of the things they'll find as development continues.

[The_Engineer]

exactly what you expect from a game in it's alpha stage. BETA is where things like tiling get smoothed out.

[Azurite]

@PirateThom: Could be

@The_Engineer: Well, if it actually does have that "glitch" ingame, it could have been concieved elsewhere.
Otherwise it's a matter of course it won't be in the final product.

I want to know what it is, thought that maybe someone who knew more than me in this area could explain it to me in no uncertain terms.

[Foliage]

It could just be a texture issue. The large shadow line cutting across the area vertically doesn't seem affected. Since the large shadow cuts across multiple textures you can almost assume it is being rendered in game. The dark spots on the texture are more than likely baked and that is why they are affected by this misplacement.

I doubt that it is tearing since only that one texture seems affected. It was probably the texture artist patching up a texture, and forgot to clone stamp the area.

At least that is what I think. I could easily be wrong.

[protekjv]

NICE.....CANT WAIT FOR IT!!!

[resistance100]

I can't believe how detailed they look at this stage, can't wait to see what the final built in 8/9months time looks like

[OpiZA]

Looks pretty good, insomniac are great.

[sleepbox]

RFOM was a great FPS and this may just be the title to sway me to PS3. I really hope it lives up to it's lofty hype.

[lesferdinand]

Just started with part 1, which I like very much. Love the art direction, though it's not as good as Killzone's (the original let alone what's been shown so far of part 2). Am very interested to see how this one turns out! :)

[pp]

what are those screen shots resistence 1

[Jamaicangmr]

What exactly are you hating on my friend? Grow up please the rest of us would appreciate it.

[Genki]

Let him rot in his elitism. I liken him to all of the buffoons who have the notion that quality productions like Killzone and Far Cry don't matter now that Resistance 2 has been announced.

Idiots like them are only depriving themselves of good games is all. Let the rest of us commoners and other lowly people play many good games and enjoy them. The fanatics and snobs can have their limited libraries and fervently loyal mentalities. Those of us with open minds and a genuine desire to play games will be having a ball...these mindless yuppie cretins, on the other hand, will just continue to be miserable and become more and more irrelevant as the rest of us enjoy more and more great games.

[Gazman]

so nice wanna touch

[KDash]

you're absolutely right. but i dont really like all FPS, you know =)

for example i loved golden eye, perfect dark and of course RFOM! But i didn't like COD4, GRAW, Vegas etc. So i'm pretty sure that "RFOM2" will simply be better than KZ2. I really dont need 2! FPS...

I would prefer two great beat'em ups ;)

[Genki]

I guess if you're genuine about it, then cool.

I'm just sick of seeing so many people who were once so gung-ho about certain titles switching sides, jumping on bandwagons, and pretending to be "holier than thou" when they were once clamoring for what they now denounce and sneer at.

I'm basically against the hypocrisy and elitism of some. If you genuinely have special tastes, as you put it(hey, we all do), then cool. I've seen it though when people switch sides and all of that, makes me sick.

Anyway, cheers, R2 looks like another smash hit, I hope to see you online sometime.

[heyheyhey]

image #2

holy sh!t that is going to be some epic boss battle

R2, MGS4, FF13 are the main contenders for GOTY- who do you think will win?

i personally think it will be MGS4, but this looks incredibly amazing- i think FF13 is no longer the biggest game of this year

[LightofDarkness]

Nice to see the PS3 finally hitting it's stride. Those graphics are as good as Drake's Fortune's, IMO. But as we all know, half the beauty of Uncharted is seeing it in motion, so we'll have to wait and see for that one. Finally, the 360 is getting real and fierce competition in the graphical department. Something big better come out soon for the Microsoft camp (although I have a feeling we won't be waiting very long for some Gears 2 info, especially after all this Resistance 2 attention).

[cputeq]

********** Quote by Genki *******************
That's just the world we live in today, you have to put your best foot forward. Technically, any enhanced screen you see is still 100% in game. It still a shot taken of 100% in-game assets, it's just probably smoothed and has minor color correction, or small things of that nature.
***************************** ******

Any enhanced picture is *not* 100% in-game. That's one of the definitions of a bullshot -- A shot that you will never experience in-game (the other definition -- a 100% screenshot taken in the most optimal screen or settings). Look at the magazine previews of God of War on PSP -- The game screens have *ZERO* jaggies. It looks like it's running on a high-end computer.

From your logic, then, that's still 100% in-game? I would have to disagree. The screenshots are bullshots, plain and simple. Does the game look good on PSP anyway? Of course. But it certainly doesn't look like the magazine "screenshots".

Yes, you're correct, these screenshots of in-game assets...but that doesn't make it any less of a doctored photo.

The same can be said of a magazine cover model -- the photo is using "100% model assets", but the end image is often subtly different than the original photo.

***************************** *****
Adding stuff, removing objects, deliberately and drastically changing things, THOSE constitute what could be referred to as a "bullshot".
***************************** *****

No my friend, *that* is false advertising.

In the End -- I wasn't freaking out and saying "OMG fake screenshots." People should learn to read an entire post before reacting and automatically claiming this or that (I'm not saying you did, but in general).

Will the game look good? Of course it will. But, I would be highly hesitant of expecting the game to look *that* good, specifically referring to the large amount of smoothing in the screenshots.

Of course, I'd love to be wrong and it really DO look that good. I certainly wouldn't complain ;-)

[Genki]

I think you may have misconstrued what I said a bit, just a bit though. For the record though, I'm totally with you, I think they're touched up as well, I just don't have a problem with it like so many legions of people do.

"Any enhanced picture is *not* 100% in-game."

Not what I meant. This may not come out right,but what I mean is that it's a screenshot...doctored it may be, of in-game assets.

"That's one of the definitions of a bullshot"

I guess we interpret the term a little differently. IMO, a bullshot is something that is a complete, or at least drastic misrepresentation of the game. Basically a pic that gives you an idea of the game that is just way off base. This is what I think of when I see screens or vids of FMV teasers or acted out dramatizations and such. In most cases you just can't formulate what to expect from such things, so it's misleading.

A slightly doctored screen of the true product however, still utilizes the same textures, same models, same environments, same effects, same everything. Things are USUALLY just smoothed out a bit with some minor hue, saturation, and brightness tweaks. Big deal. I know there are instances though where devs take it a bit too far. For example NBA Live 08, I saw screens of models with impeccable detail in the skin. I'm talking blemishes, skin imperfection, different, realistic tone throughout the skin and all. Pop the game in and somehow all of this detail is AWOL. THAT along with FMV is what I consider a bullshot. That's just me though, I won't say you're wrong, but with this clarification hopefully you know where I'm coming from now.

Basically, if the visual integrity of the game assets themselves aren't tampered with, then I don't consider it a bullshot. Since I don't consider something like AA or brightness to be an asset, I don't consider the minor touch up shots we've seen in magazines for...ever to be dishonest.

"but the end image is often subtly different than the original photo."

Exactly my point. Such subtleties rarely, or at least they probably shouldn't give one any unrealistic or unattainable expectations for a game. If something concrete is drastically changed, added, or removed, then yeah. Like I said earlier though, I don't consider smoothing and color correction to be too far out there, especially when you consider that different TVs will have slight disparities in the color production. Also, with the 3 main resolutions out there(SD, HD, "true HD"), it's kinda naive to expect ANY screenshot to be some quintessential representation of how the game will play on your setup.

"No my friend, *that* is false advertising. "

Exactly, but since those things I listed are what *I* consider a bullshot to be, I think bullshots are inherent false advertisement, it simply goes without saying.

"I wasn't freaking out and saying "OMG fake screenshots."

Well, if you were, wouldn't make you wrong. Devs have been this since time immemorial, it's only now that people are starting to get bent out of shape about it. Just like game length, too. Anyone remember Shadowgate on the Nintendo? Could beat that game within an hour. CLASSIC. Resident Evil...uh, ANYTHING? Could beat that within 2. CLASSIC. It's like I said earlier, folks get too caught up in the venomous terminology and connotations "fake, bullshots, edited, doctored, etc.", and yet they don't take a step back to actually THINK about what this stuff really means or what's actually going on. It's a lot more innocent than the hyperbole and misunderstanding might suggest.

[supnub5]

if insomniac releases their engine to license we will see a lot more ps3 exclusives, glad they figured out they way to use spe's for power and ppu as a traffic control.

[tudors]

Have you ever heard a PS3 fanboy compliment a Xbox-360 game?

I own a Xbox-360 but if R2 can live up to the screenshots then I would buy a PS3, but trust me Gears 2 will also drop jaws.

You guys need to be happy we can now have the best of both worlds.

[Genki]

I find it to be such a travesty that there are so many awesome games coming out for EVERY console, with plenty to go around for EVERYONE to enjoy, yet all we wanna do is be at each others throats about who's is bigger than who's. Pi*sing contests galore.

What a bunch of pretentious moronic bullsh*t. Even a single-console owner should be able to say kudos to "the other side"(hate referring to it as that) for getting a good game. Naw, instead it makes more sense to be an ass and say it sucks without having ever played it. Instead it's a better idea to be closed minded about things that won't be on your machine. We even love to bicker and cry about games that are on BOTH of them.

Fanboys have no idea how stupid they look bragging about multiplats that have a barely there visual advantage, in most cases it being completely subjective.

[cputeq]

Yeah it's a shame that if you add in your 2 cents and it's not from a fanboy perspective, you get "disagrees". Beh, who cares.

I've come to realize, though, that you can never stop the flaming -- people will find *something* to latch onto and defend it with their internet lives.

AMD vs Intel
Nvidia vs ATI
X360 vs PS3

I don't think it'll ever end ;-)
----------------------------- ------------

I think many of the fanboys don't realize that without *strong* competition, companies aren't pushed to innovate as much.

I'm *glad* the Wii is kicking the collective asses of Sony and Microsoft -- Maybe *next* generation they won't get technology tunnel vision and crap out a $1000 gadget on the gaming public without innovation.

The Wii proved there is still a huge market for playability and accessibility (disclaimer -- I don't own a Wii, never plan to).

-----------------

What's scaring me today is that both Sony and Microsoft (and their 3rd party devs) are starting to crap out stale FPS after stale FPS.

This is a huge problem in the PC gaming arena right now.....a very strong lack of variety.

Currently, PC gaming kills consoles in 3 areas -- RTS, FPS, MMO. It's getting really hard to find good PC games nowadays, because douchebags keep focusing on ZOMG GRAFIX instead of actual gameplay and *fun*.

----------------

I'm seriously hoping this doesn't happen to the PS360 generation...I *like* my console-y games, and IMO FPS just works better with a KB/M setup. Sure, some FPS games are good to do on console, but IMO they're getting very lazy with them.

Take a bunch of enemies, design a map, throw in weapons..Wallah! Insta-game. This sucks IMO. I want *innovation* and something different than the other guy. That's why the Turok demo sucks so much balls -- It's the "same old, same old".

Without strong competition from one another, though, Sony/MS wouldn't be pressed into making great games -- They'd just crap out bland FPS one after another and call it a day.

So, fanboys, seriously....quit trying to justify your money expendature. Yes, you like your console, we know it already. Yes, there have been flamewars in the past...but that's just it -- THE PAST.

Be glad when a console has a great game release -- I'll bet you the bank that the "opposition" will have something as a response to that blockbuster that company X releases, sooner or later.

Just look at the 360 -- Because of the weak sales of the Xbox 1 in Japan and Microsoft's desire to do good there, the 360 got Blue Dragon RPG and Eternal Sonata. This is a *good* thing (whether you like the games or not). It shows MS is trying to have more selection for their console. The crazy sales of Gran Tourismo basically laid the foundation for Forza 1 and 2 to be released (both great racing games).

The same with Sony -- The PS2 was THE KING of the JRPG...but many people don't like JRPG, instead they want western. So Oblivion makes its way to the PS3...this is a good thing again! I'm hoping to see many more western RPG on the PS3.

Competition is a good thing, so let's quit the hating and actually play the games.

[Spike47]

what guys, this game is gonna have insane graphics anyway even if these screnshots are touched up or not.

THis game is gonna rock not matter what.

[MaJiKaLL]

AHh babie this is lookin toooo niceee!! original resistance was sweet! dis is going to cleaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaan up on ps3!!!

[Zhak]

As always mighty Sony tend to pick the right exclusives to count on! .. this game has "Halo-Killer" writen all over it, With 60p online.. and best grafix ever made ! Only Killzone2 will top it, being the fps industys jugernaut of 08. and thats a fact

the $Playstation3System$ will because of its flaw-free online, and Triple A gold exclusives = Rule 08

The-Mighty-Zhak-Has-Spoken

[Zhik]

Sony will never be able to deliver a true nex-gen experience with it's poor games and poor controller... resistance has "fail" written all over it - but again this will probably be the best sony has to offer this year with Killzone 2 receiving the same poor fate as the first Killzone...

heck you can't even call it a fps because of the wack control scheme! Dual analog kiss my ass!

[Mcrmarcher]

'snif sniff' i smell a fanboy somebody bring a shotgun lol zhik please this game has next gen written over it. no need to feel jealous i mean u still have..... erm... Fable.. yea Fable.

[Lonewolf1991]

Its...Its...Beautiful...

[aceman7]

Leaps and bounds over R1.

[Salvadore]

Multiplayer is what sounds the most promising.

[NanoGeekTech]

2nd Gen PS3 games will boogle the mind....I love RFOM...very good game.
2008 is the year of the gamer..

[TwissT]

I am so hyped for this game its not even funny...

[Zhak]

Ahh .. We chat again.. my dear arch-rival Zhik!

And once again, your wrong: All-knowing Sony already have delivered many true nex-gen games to their system: including: CoD4, Uncharted, BurnoutP, Motorstorm, R:FOM.. and MUCH MUCH more are coming .. wait and see..

Nintendo has yet to show anything impressing from their little gamecube 1.2 system, it must be seriously anoying to see all the new Wii titles get SMASHED in reviews.. but get used to it ppl, it will keep happening, whilst MSG4, killzone2, Haze, Motorstorm2, Fallout3, DMC4, GoW3, GT5, FF13, GTA4, SW:TFU, Tekken6, Resident Evil5.. are Guarentied to score over 9-10

Sorry to say, Gamecube games where you swing a controller a little around is NOT nex-gen.. it dosnt even have a DVD-player its Embarasing

[Zhik]

With offerings like Zelda TP, Metroid Prime 3, Super Mario Galaxy and RE4 Wii edition nintendo has already proven that wii has a top-class libary.

The titles you mention can be defined as PS2 titles in HD. Nothing revolutionary, no innovation and a crappy framerate taking every player by the balls. All this for the fantastic low-low price at 60$ compared to the superior wii-games and theie price tags at 50$.

Finally you tend to think that a wii is a gamecube with motion, if thats your oppinion then you can add the ps3 as a ps2 1.1 to that thought. The ps3 features a Processor capable of delivering HD graphics with sucky framerates. The bluray player is a piece of junk made by chineese slave-kids. The controlelr does not feature rumble and has attempted to deliver a nex-gen experience with motion BUT the developers can't get it working - just look at lair!

fail zhak.. fail

[HarryEtTubMan]

little kid ZHIK YOU ARE A HOMO SHUT UP! THIS GAMES MURDERS ANYTHING ON THE GAY Wii. You're just a little 13 year old kis thats parents won't get him a PS3 until is 250$. You sound like a jackass.... PS3 is the most advanced system on the market... and will prove it.... its JUST BRAND NEW DUMB kid. It will be here EASILY 9 more years. THE WII IS A TOY... DSON'T EVEN BRING THAT MARIO MACHINE IN A PS3 room withn graphics like this and gameplay like Resistance as. If u HONESTLY think PS3 is just PS2 graphics in HD(Which u probbablly don't.... I bet u are just jealous) you are on CRACK. IT'S NOT EVEN CLOSE A LITTLE BIT. And u are dumb. PS3 HASN'T EVEN GOT CLOSE to the level of graphics it will have in the future.... ITS ONE YEAR OLD. YOU ARE A HOMO. PS3 WILL CRUSHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH THE HOMO Wii little kiddie poo.

[Relientk77]

Thanx Insomniac Games... the game looks sick and amazing... great graphics... and more stuff then the original awesome

MORE WEAPONS PLZ

:)

[THX7168]

I kept my word and passed out agrees and bubbles to everyone after my original comment (#53).

84, 94.1, 101.1, didn't get any because they are piece of sh|t xbots. :-)

I tried to do them as quickly as possible so I might have missed a couple here and there but for the most part everyone got the love. If I missed you, let me know. ;-)

[RudeSole Devil]

Has anybody noticed that every game released after Gears of War never look as good (Bio Shock came close), because Gears was Xbox 360 limit.. Now on the other hand PS3 has never looked back, and every new release on the PS3 keeps pushing graphics and next-gen features forward. Allowing users to install the Games on the PS3 Hard Drive to eliminate loading time is a new next-gen feature that will be the future of gaming norm, huge capacity disk space and the list goes on and on. Xbox 360 needs something new to offer like a new optical drive add-on (not HD-DVD it's a dead format). Or something to save this crippled system.

[GITPWNED]

Wow. the Depth of Field in that fourth shot looks pretty amazing on those guys in the distance. I'll have to get this game fo sho. It will be interesting to see how much better Gears 2 looks when they unveil it. Don't bash me, stupid fanboys. You know it'll happen.

[RudeSole Devil]

Gears of War 2 will be released on the next Xbox because Gears of War was the Xbox 360 limit. If this game is released on the 360 it will suffer the same fate as Halo 3 (AKA Halo 2 HD). So keep waiting because this game has not been officially announced anyway.

[zonetrooper5]

I really can't wait to play this game. The graphics are amazing but they are not as good as real life, not even close, you can tell there are some texture issues which look a little low res but they will replace them. The lighting is excellent and the levels need more objects as some of them look a little empty.

Anywhoo, every company uses doctored screenshots to make their game look even better and don't say they don't. Bungie did, GG did it for KZ2, Epic has done and so has Valve and many other companies.

[aggh im on fire]

Looks good. A bit like Halo 3 in the colour department which is good. Greys get a bit dull.

[sleepbox]

I cannot wait to see this in motion!! This is THE game that will make me get a PS3.

[x360rulezx]

I was excited about gears 2 but I may have to trade in my 360 and games for this and a ps3.

[heyheyhey]

man R2 must really have made an impact on people

all the usual M$ cronies are actually saying this game will be good (and it will be) and even a person with "360rulez" in his name is contemplating getting a PS3

things are changing- they are changing fast

[cmrbe]

But if i were you i would keep the x360 especially if it haven't PROD and just save money to buy a PS3 as well. That way you can enjoy all the games you want on both the PS3 and x360

[marcindpol]

i just love my PS3, like always!

[Z501]

Insomniac has'nt failed on a PS3 project yet.
I'm sure Gears of War 2 will look awesome.
But then Naughty Dog is going to hit people upside the head with their next game.

I don't know if it's me but i have yet to play a Konami game on my PS3 i think.
Konami = vets in this war we call video games.

[08_CiViC_Si]

those walking 4 legged things looked ripped straight out of appleseed. teh awesome.

lol @ fanboy circlejerking though. never ceases to amaze me how much you kiddies get off on eachother.

[Zhak]

You should newer have woken the wrath of ALMIGHTY ZHAK! know you will suffer the consequenses!,

Metroid Prime3 is exactly the same as MP2 add some motion and u will newer be able to tell the difference.. SMG is the most boring over-rated childish game ever made, its embarasing playing it.. and RE4 i can play any day on my superior $Playstation3System$ with Sorry2say better and more stabil controls, than the unpredictable incompetent wii motion control..

Everything about the $Playstation3System$ games r revolutionary, Better AI, More Enemys, Larger maps/Landscapes, Overall longer games, Incredibel online, Motion used for well-chosen minor things, Blue-ray discs, and ofc the most important Amazing HD grafix.. which gives a much more lifelike and intense gaming experience that the wii only can dream of.. The Wii only has crappy broken Motion, which in games like SMG is totally irelevant and useless..

The $Playstation3System$ revolutioneres the already perfect gaming system the $Playstation2System$ in everyway possibel, a gigantic procesor, better grafix card, more Ram, The nex-gen disc Blue-ray, wireless controller with motion sensing (which btw works PERFECT in games like Motorstorm, R:FOM, Uncharted, BurnoutP, Warhawk..)and the Dualshock3 controller is already on its way, so dont worry about rumble, It also features the best Online ever achieved in a console, an internet browser, it has 60gb (mine at least) harddrive so you can store movies, music and pics..... Overall this is the best, most complete console EVER made .. and ofc its games cost more than the wii games, hell even the console costs more than than 2 wii's.. and you know why? Because you pay for quality! = Viva $Playstaion3System$

Yes, the Wii is exactly a Gamecube 1.1 .. it ONLY adds motion.. it dosnt even feature a DVD-player, ITS EMBARASING.. look they r are even porting past-gen games like RE4 to it? dosnt that give u a clue? nintendo says: "Here .. Buy all the games you have already played once.. but with a little motion.. oorr.. you can keep finding out how much you weight on the incredibly boring Wii-Fit failure.. lets take an example "Dont wanna spend 4$ on a hulla hup? then you might wanna spend 300$ on a wii and the wii-fit" now thats just stupid..

The-Mighty-Zhak-Has-Spoken

[zane_7849]

It's not like some of the things you're saying don't have some validity to them, but come on man rein it in a little bit. You're making the internet look bad.

[x360rulezx]

cmbre your right I'm still waiting for Fable 2 and Alan Wake and Huxley but I'm getting tired of waiting for good games. Thank God the multiplats have gotten better. I could always buy one later again when the price drops but I guess why not just have both.

[cmrbe]

drop again this year so yeah wait for it. I myself am waiting for the next x360 price drop to buy one and hopefully the hardware would be more reliable by then. Too Human and NG2 are the games that i am buying a x360 for.I highly recommend having both this gen as both will have some pretty good games from what i have seen :)

[sonyfanonly]

This is why Ps3 is the true next gen console... Gaming is going to get pretty intense this year with all the exclusives coming out.At least the 360 got Goldeneye or w/e I read awhile back lol.

Insomniac was my favorite developer in 2007. It looks like they will be my favorite in 08 also. They really know how to squeeze power out of the PS3.

tough time to be an xbot... sony is getting realllll brutal... no mercy for halo suckas... ouch! suddenly it's sooooo uncool to bash sony? woahahaha! suddenly everybody is ready to make nice?

hell f@ck no!

let me laugh that real loud and clear all you green xmorons:
look at what's coming out on my 'bluray player' this year!
ha!

no, you won't get away with it: you jumped in where you were told it'd be hip to by a bunch of buffoons who only know 2 words: "ME TOO". you followed the crowd into a laughable RROD collective suicide that has the entire industry buzzing with 1 phrase: "we can screw our customers, they'll come asking for more". you giggled like baboons and ridiculed the most brilliant minds in the industry just because the corrupt media told you so.

you're insignificant.

I don't need nobody to tell me where to jump cuz I made up my own mind and I'm having a hell of a ride on the 'titanic' that was supposed to sink ages ago.

It is never too late to grow a mind of your own, welcome aboard, but at this time, I'm sorry we only have room in 3rd class, below flotation line, with the cokroaches.

This is my most anticipated FPS of ’08 (/apologize for the 100 other coming this year), R:FOM was my 2nd favorite FPS in ’07 right behind Bioshock, Portal was also so damn good and fun but I don’t consider it an FPS its more of a puzzle game.
