BS! Looks a lot better. So much crap going on and not any framerate issues, too.
Thats true. DOn't get me wrong,looks like a great game,just like the first one,but all these lemmings were getting me pumped to see the Crysis killer in the graphics department.
Kind of a letdown.
Who said it was going to beat Crysis? Name "all these lemmings"...
Name more than 1 or 2 crazed fanboys...
Well there is you for one, and Kirlock is the second.... In fact you seem to be the only two here who are hyping it like it's the BEST THING EVA1011101!!
Here is what I liked about the trailer:
Action Packed! With all the stuff going on, you'll be on your toes at all times. It's awesome how they did that, it might turn up the diffculty, or it should. But that is a good thing, whereas you'll be on your toes at all times.
Improved Graphics, by a semi margarine, not beyond belief, and not to the extent that I was personally hoping for.
What I didn't like about the trailer:
What's up with the Human shield now?? Copying MGS and Splinter Cell now! I mean those games I can understand your dealing with humans, but when you holding onto a six hundred pound of muscle alien, you think they are going to stand there and LET YOU!? Think they are afraid of having their neck snapped or dying?? Well I guess they might have a cute alien family waiting for them to come back home too. :P
Not as improved graphics I hoped for, everyone was saying this is the end all be all in graphics on gaming for consoles ... well it didn't seem that much improved from Gears 1.
[QUOTE="smokeydabear076"][QUOTE="Blackbond"]I am a bit skeptical. I look forward to playing this game. I supported the first one when all of the 360 fanboys denounced it. I believe we will see more action in GeOW 2, but I think they decided to show us a level which contains certain things which will not be in every level. I could be wrong, but it is really hard to believe that the whole game plays like this. Its not a bad thing though. I had a great time with the first one and GeOW 2 already looks like it will be better.
:shock:
Wow I must say I am definately impressed.
- No more Corridors of War
- No more only 8 characters on screen at once
- No more three colors as the game has actual color this time around lol
Wow now this is a trailer. Action packed. Shows off the gameplay real nice. I mean wow I'm just jacked for this game and I don't even own the first one lol. I beat and played it before though many times.
Blackbond
Well I doubt every level will be like this. They have to have some sort of variety.
This just seems to be a "vehicle" level, just looks 1000 times better than the only "vehicle" level in the first one. I guess I am just trying to tell you not get too hyped up, that leads to disappointment.It does look nice...It looks a bit shaper and cleaner than the first Gears...doesn't look that much improved graphically though...in fact, it damn near looks the same...I guess its safe to say KillZone 2 is the better looking game.
The people saying "omg it looks so amazing"...you guys have never played the first Gears have you? Cause it looks the same.

I just played it today and this looks much better, technically.
how is that even possible on the 360?
some parts even looked crysis quality level, this is amaizing.
btw did he used a locust as a human shield then snaped his neck?
im so hyped for this now
Kirlok
I agree, just amazing that this 3 year old console can pull graphics like this. The motion blur looks amazing as well.

How can you say that looks the same as Gears 1? Nothing in Gears one had so much moving at the same time, both on land and in the air, and with that Brumack attacking? The epic scale is where the rgaphics shine so much brighter than Gears one. In no way, shape or form does Gears 1 compare to this game except that Marcus himself looks the same. But the scope and scale, the sher number of characters, and the size of them are greatly improved. I know we all have our own opinions, but this game for me truly outclasses KZ2. I think Gears only comp will be Resistance 2. Gears 2 is a graphics powerhouse, IMHO.

You should really see KillZone 2 vid...not only is it more technically advanced than that...it has alot more crap going on than Gears 2....at a constant framerate.
The draw distance and detail of the trees and especially mountains in the distance was extremely impressive. Seeing such detail and rich textures at that kind of distance is very impressive. And that one factor puts the game at least a notch above the first one graphically, if you ask me. It just seems much crisper overall, with a nice rich pop.
WOW JUST WOW that was orgasmic, so much action going on, unlike the pretty yet plain and boring Crysis.
The game is very clean, but the gameplay remains the same.
Also more things going on, which is good.
KZ2 and Gears 2 battle it out for the graphics department.

Saw it 5 times.
wow i'm excited for gears of war 2 now. i say from the looks of it they have improved for the better for the second one.
i wonder if you can use your opponents as shield on the mp.
Looks amazing.
I wanted the guy playing to get on the turret and plow through the horde of locusts on the ground. :D
looks just like gears 1 polished up sorry lemmings killzone 2 looks better.Nolan16
Damage control is in overdrive tonight. I can see it happening again. Sony fans hyping graphics for an unproven franchise. I've seen that before and it never ends well. :)

dude I'm pc first ps3 second and an honest review of both graphically they both have high points and down the character models on kill zone 2 blow gears away while gears has pretty textures and alot of draw distance. But overall in detail Kill zone 2 beats it out imo.
[QUOTE="themyth01"]I think this looks way better than Killzone 2 and it actually has colors. blitzkid1
yeah because the gray and black from both games really show color. :roll:
I saw a lot of color in this gameplay trailer...:|

I don't know Bio. I was a huge fan of Gears of War 1 and was flabergasted the first time I played it at the level of detail, it was just. . . well. . . no words. I saw the video tonight and I don't know, something just doesn't look right, perhaps its the camera. GeoW1 I actually felt as though I, the main character was IMMERSED in the level where as the video tonight, I felt like I was watching a character in front of a blue screen. I was and still am amazed at the detail of KZ2, although at this point that is all there is to be impressed with since I haven't played any of it. I know GeoW2 will be fantastic but I don't know if its graphically THAT much better than the first and that is only because the 1st set the bar so high already.

I think Killzone 2 looks better but the actual gameplay doesn't look too hot compared to other first person shooters. On the other hand, Gears of War 2 looks bad ass.yellowandmushy
Maybe because it isn't a first person shooter?
I love how they added more diverse locations.
The level from the video can't really compare to a level from the first game.

Honestly who cares, Gears is supposed to have this gritty feel to it, not have the world all colorful thats filled with sunshine. The only color a game like Gears really needs is red...lots of it.

[QUOTE="Mamba_Negra"][QUOTE="Not-A-Stalker"]Graphics wise, not as big of an improvment I would have liked...
Tech wise... Massive improvment. So much happening on screen and the framerate stayed smooth throughout.
Excitement level = Through the roof :0

dude for a Xbox 360 basher like you it was kinda expected, BUT WOWWWW GEARS 2 ALREADY looks better than CRYSIS 2!!!!!
What the ****? When have I ever bashed the 360? Besides the RROD, there's not much to bash; and I don't think I've ever even commented on the RROD on SW... The 360 is my favorite console, so what the hell are you even talking about? :|
*Ignores Crysis comment*
Still waiting, Mamba. I don't like being insulted then having my retort completely ignored.

Well, you have to be realistic in your expectations. It's running on a 3 year old console. It doesn't matter though, I've played Crysis and the 360 and PS3 are still capable of stunning graphics.
It looks good, the using the enemy as a shield bit looked a bit tacked on, but I liked everything else. It was probably because it was going too fast for me to notice, but I couldn't see much of an improvement over the original on the technical side, besides many more enemies.
There's just not enough there for me to judge how much of an improvement it really is, I'll keep an eye out for what's to come though.
