Is Resistance 2 technically superior to Gears 2? Sure seems like it.

[QUOTE="killzowned24"][QUOTE="The_Game21x"][QUOTE="killzowned24"]yes, R2 is technically better. far more stuff on screen and runs better better textures and lighting + water.

I'm beginning to wonder if you people have even played Gears 2... This isn't Gears 1 people. You will fight far more than four enemies at any given time throughout the campaign and in the Horde mode.

no. the only time there is more is if your on a vehicle and they are massively dumbed down to not even matter.

:lol: Whatever dude. I've played it to completion and invested several hours into the multiplayer including Horde mode, Co-op and, of course, its several adversarial modes. I'm not going to say it has more enemies on screen than Resistance 2 (as I haven't played it yet) but from what I've seen, it doesn't look technically superior to Gears and I know, based on the reviews I've seen, that this opinion is shared by very many gamers. But, given your posting history and how much you consistently bash the Xbox 360, even if the producers of Resistance 2 themselves said Gears 2 was technically superior, you still wouldn't believe it. :lol:

Is that the "hundreds" of R2 enemies people talk about?

That's no more than Gears 2, and look at the amazing AI :roll: Even the small environments in this video doesn't touch Gears's graphics.

I knew you were going to say that.

You're exactly right, I've never played Resistance 2 (unless you count the beta, which I don't) and I never claimed to have done so. I made an objective claim based on the footage I've seen of the game and my short time with the closed beta and that's it. I didn't make a definitive claim that Gears 2 looked better than Resistance 2 because I know I'm not in a position to make that claim. Who knows? You could turn out to be right when I pop the game into my PlayStation 3 on Christmas morning. I highly doubt it, but hey, I'm not going to rule it out entirely.

Resistance 2 has fairly weak graphics. Some things are quite impressive, for example the Leviathan and the water effects, but it is far from the prettiest looking FPS. Gears 2 looks fantastic in places, and generally looks good most of the time. Having said that when it comes to multiplayer R2 is so much more technically superior to GeoW 2. The game runs at a perfect frame rate with very little lag, and with alot going on at one time. With GeoW 2 your stuck with an awful match making system that might or might not have you waiting 10 minutes to get into a game. I still give the edge in technical superiority to GeoW 2 because I am a single player gamer, but as an overall package I prefer Resistance 2.

Errr, heck no. Gears 2 is so much more technically superior that it's not even funny. I own and have played/completed both.

McdonaIdsGuy

However 60 players and 60fps is not something that Gears 2 can do even if they were to lower the graphics.

Resistance 2 runs at 30fps,while gears 2 runs over 30fps.

No I had times in Gears 2 where the frames dropped so much it was hard to play

If your talking technical; Technically Resistance 2 supports a lot more on screen action and players, but technically Gears 2 looks better.Couth_
That's not technical at all :? Technically would be saying Resistance 2's support of large scale and a lot more characters on screen is more technically impressive than gears of war's textures and effects.

It never made that part unplayable, that's an exaggeration IMO, but Gears 2 runs at around 40fps I believe.

I played gears 1 and it was too slow paced. I prefer halo, half life and crysis, and Timesplitters because they are all guns blazing style shooters. I played Resistance 1 in multiplayer and it was awful. It felt like a ps2 game.

I admit i haven't played Gears 2 or resisitance 2. Their originals put me off any future installments. (although from reading reviews, resistance has improved more than gears) Halo is a different direction to gears. Its not gritty, its more action, more open (and for me its more fun). I'm not liking the sound of Halo recon (that tactical based halo shooter). I think halo should stick to what it does best. Timesplitters is so underrated. Especially because it (in my opinion) was the best shooter series on ps2. So much fun, (wasnt the best shooting mechanics) but made up for it with its unique humour, characters, settings and customisation (best map editor ever, and easy to use). I dont want timesplitters to die!

I've never liked the look of Resistance, to me it looked lame and ridiculous. Everything I see about the game its just a gun that shoots yellow orbs that hits an enemy 3-4 times and they fall down. It never ever looked fun to me.

I was never really taken by Halo. Still, it's a real shame about Timesplitters, it's one of my favourite games of all time. So much fun killing bots in so many ways. There arn't many shooters that let you run around as the giner bread man with a flame thrower, making fried calamari. Still Resistance 2 is very diffrent from the first. It's more like Halo in the sense it is more focused on intense action than it's predessecor. Lots of Boss Battles and intense set pieces. Great vibrant settings as well, ranging from the swamp like lousiana level to the flooded urban enviroments of Chicago. GeoW 2 is a little bit diffrent aswell, with greater variety in both enviroments and gameplay. It's also alot faster paced, mabye too fast.

GeOW2 far better story, graphics. R2 far better MP options. Reason why I bought em, haven't even touched R2 SP since day 1. The R2 colors are grimey looking and dirty at times. But a great MP game.

:lol:

I just love it when a TC throws out an ambigious term like "TECHNICAL" and people argue over it.

Define "technical" and then I'll tell which game is more "technical" than the other. I've played both Gears2 and Res2

The fact that you haven't played either of these games alone signifies your lack of business stating any opinions about them, no matter how those opinions were developed. I've played both Gears 2 and Resistance 2, a lot, and Gears 2 is the better game, both technically and generally. It's not really sensible to compare the two games directly in terms of gameplay and physics and what not, because they're two completely different styles of games. Overall, Gears 2 is superior in those areas as a third-person shooter than Resistance 2 is as a first-person shooter. But in terms of graphics, Gears 2 looks much better in every way IMO. I can see where people come from about the colors thing, but what I feel is that R2 has better environments to show off its colors, which is what creates the illusion that R2 has "better colors". Your post failed when you admitted to not having played either game, but to some degree, it also fails in stating that R2 is techinically superior to Gears 2. It's not true.

[QUOTE="killzowned24"][QUOTE="The_Game21x"][QUOTE="killzowned24"]yes, R2 is technically better. far more stuff on screen and runs better better textures and lighting + water.

I'm beginning to wonder if you people have even played Gears 2... This isn't Gears 1 people. You will fight far more than four enemies at any given time throughout the campaign and in the Horde mode.

no. the only time there is more is if your on a vehicle and they are massively dumbed down to not even matter.

No,there is many more levels with hundreds of them and they ALL attack you,like some other posters say u haven't play the game..,and yet u keep trying hard to prove you did :lol:

The fact that you haven't played either of these games alone signifies your lack of business stating any opinions about them, no matter how those opinions were developed. I've played both Gears 2 and Resistance 2, a lot, and Gears 2 is the better game, both technically and generally. It's not really sensible to compare the two games directly in terms of gameplay and physics and what not, because they're two completely different styles of games. Overall, Gears 2 is superior in those areas as a third-person shooter than Resistance 2 is as a first-person shooter. But in terms of graphics, Gears 2 looks much better in every way IMO. I can see where people come from about the colors thing, but what I feel is that R2 has better environments to show off its colors, which is what creates the illusion that R2 has "better colors". Your post failed when you admitted to not having played either game, but to some degree, it also fails in stating that R2 is techinically superior to Gears 2. It's not true.atm0073

The truth is in bold. Even worse, TC came back with picture comparisons saying, "Which one would you rather play?" Both of these games have been out for at least 6 weeks so there is no reason for picture comparisons when we can actually play the game. I'm really starting to think some of these guys suck horribly at shooters, because they spend too much time looking at textures, lighting, and water effects when they should be squeezing the trigger or ducking for cover.

[QUOTE="brokenps2"]Both are cliche shoot aliens with marines games. Awful.brokenps2

Not as cliched as your post though. If I hear this one more time I'm going to explode.

I played gears 1 and it was too slow paced. I prefer halo, half life and crysis, and Timesplitters because they are all guns blazing style shooters. I played Resistance 1 in multiplayer and it was awful. It felt like a ps2 game.

How the **** can you say that Crysis and Halo are better than Gears of War? Crysis has nice graphics and it's relatively fun to shoot down treees or punch Koreans into walls so that houses get demolished but the game is pretty dull. Also, Halo has good and epic campaign, but Gears of War is much better, more addictive multiplayer and the all-time greatest weapon, the chainsaw.

3rd person vs. 1st person. Technically they aren't even in the same category.

Also, thanks for getting Killzowned out...ugh.

Agreed. I do wish that Gears of War 2 was as brilliant and addictive as the original, though. :)

I haven't played either game, but from the videos I have seen on the internet, it seems that Resistance 2 is a much more grand-scale game with a lot more going on and better physics. Resistance also seems to have better artistic value and better colors, which seem to give it a better overall appearance than Gears 2. Gears 2 seems like a good game, but Resistance 2 just seems technically superior.

Opinions?

you judging games by using youtube?? you got to look for youself. R2 is totally trash, ugly design in both character and setting. Very bad taste in overrall.

[QUOTE="Fumpa"][QUOTE="EVOLV3"]Yes, Resistance 2 is superior, as shown by the fact that it is a GOTY nomineee, while Gears 2 is not.GreenGoblin2099

Actually it's quite obvious that Gears 2 is better because it has sold more copies than Resistance 2.

So now technical quality is determined on the number of sales??? wow!! lemmings are amusing people :lol:

I'm not a lemming. I don't own a 360. I've got a PC and we have a PS3 in the house and I play Oblivion and Warhawk. My comment was a dumb one, but I just wanted to match the one that I was initially responding to. So again, I'm not a lemming, but I do think the 360 is better...does that make me a lemming? I like the PC over all consoles.
