GoW 3 graphics really looks almost the same as GoW 2

Yeah I know that GoW 2 had almost the best graphics on PS2, but still no excuse why GOW3 looks so much to it

PS2 (wow on my tv it looked way better)

PS3

The only difference I see is that the PS3 screens doesnt have the "ants" effect on the PS2 screens

Try watching both on a 50 inch HDTV then come say it looks the same again

Wait.... the only other difference is that Kratos' character model has 5X the polygons, and is incredibly detailed. Also it is not done yet. Jeeez

Sorry, but I think the PS3 images are more clearly than the PS2 images.

I see bloom and active reflection...not something the PS2 could do.

In the case of a game which is in 720p (most of the time I don't know what they said about GoW3) true a game "might" look better on a smaller set, but at normal view distance a 40inch + HDTV oupputting 720p or more is truly impressive to watch and cannot be compared with a game at 480p resolution on a same set.

Which makes GoW3 already much better on a graphical stanpoint than its previous installment. Add better shadows, lighting, surrounding, close up view and superb sound and we'll be in for a real feast

ok peps, I guess I can explain it a bit like this

now that is huge difference

By the "ants" do you mean the jagged edges. God of War 3 also has better lighting, textures, character models, particle effects, and animations..... etc etc

I know what your saying, but you have to admit GOW 3 looks much better than GOW 2. If Santa Monica made GOW 2 such a visual masterpiece on the ps2, then they can do the same thing with GOW 3 on the ps3.

are you being sarcastic? lol casue from the pics your showing me rite now GOW3 just killed it. the game still has time for polishing. i heard from devs that you can see the pores on kratos's face perfectly by the time its finished

you know, the biggest the screen is, it looks worse, I mean, if you play on a 26 inch HDTV it will look way better than a 50 inch tv. the 50 inch will only look better if you are in a movie hall, but in a normal person room (which doesnt have the size of a damm mall) it will look really bad, since the screen is bigger, and you are watching it from a close distance, you can notice the huge pixels easily, and that's badlightleggy

The game still has a ways to go in dev

There was a picture from a build from a few months ago and the original trailer, it looked a lot better

You can never go by pictures only. You have to see it in action on a TV or PC screen. Nothing else will do it justice. Besides its NOT finished yet. The backgrounds definitely look way better in GoW3 than on GoW2.

No. not even close.GodofBigMacs

GoW3 looks a lot better in motion than GoW2, and GoW3 is still a long ways off, so the graphics will still be improved beyond this, trust me, SCEA Santa Monica never disapoints

GoW3 looks better end of discussion

i agree with TC 100%

yes of course GOW3 looks better in terms of detail, textures, lighting and all that

but overall it's still the same style and almost looks exactly the same

when i first saw the GOW3 debut trailer i really didn't notice it was for PS3, lol

If by looks almost the same you mean looks 20 times better, yeah, I totally agree....

I think what TC is trying to say is, considering how good GOW2's graphics were probably one of if not the best for a PS2 game, GOW3 looks to be far from doing the same on the PS3.Also, it just more or less looks like GOW with better graphics.

The animations aren't drastically different in this game, so most gameplay vids kinda make you feel that you're just watching GOW2 in HD :B The resolution, textures, character models, etc. are much better obviously, but the level design, gameplay mechanics and scale mostly remain the same, atleast from whats been shown so far. And a few effects, like the blood from when Kratos stabs the troll, look pretty half-assed. It almost feels like not enough work is being put into the game considering how much potential it has.

Then again, it's too early to tell. But from what's been shown so far, can't really say I'm impressed :/

ok.

god of war 3.

ive had my input.
