Everything has been significantly bumped up. Lighting, textures, poly count, animation.

I really like the I-8 Project picture; not from an amazing graphical standpoint but the way the chimera looks. Screaming like that is pretty cool and the blur effect is a nice touch. Kinda wished they would have kept it for the actual game.

But I like the step up between the two games. Its not too much, but yet its noticeable.

Not a very good comparison. Resistance 2 certainly looks better in those shots, but those Resistance 1 shots aren't exactly spectacular looking to begin with. ANd there's too much focus on the character models. From what I've seen the big difference between Resistance 1 and 2 is the lighting, not the character models/textures.

Seriously, they seem pretty similar except Resistance 2 has different lighting. Personally I like them equally but I never played either Resistance.

I'm not too sure about that. The Resistance 2's Chimera looks terribly bumpmapped. In the sense of that cheesy plastic bumpmapping. Like Doom 3 for the Xbox. Resistance 1's Chimera looks more...organic?

The biggest difference I notice from RFOM1 to 2 is that there's actually color in 2 and the lighting is much better

anyone agree?

I'm playing on a 50" plasma flat screen with 10801. The graphics look very similar to the pictures that were posted here. However says PS3 isn't capable of rendering those kind of graphics needs to get off the analog tube and get a real tv.

I know this post is really old, but...Have you actually played Resistance? The screen looks exactly like it's played.

And you guys are gonna think I'm crazy, but I think I-8 looked a lot better than Resistance. I-8 was going to be centered around Black Ops and was meant to generate a darker atmosphere. Here's the original pre-beta preview.

The visuals, whille not technically superior, had a more foreboding decor--ANd watchhow they jump over the car.

Resistance1 and 2 are using the Cell and RSX to render graphics, this is why you get AA, unlike with multiplats where games are running with last-gen programming and only rendered with the RSX.

That is why i like the ps3 over x360, cuz ps3 is a true next-gen console.

Resistance looks nice, but i find it really, really mediocre on the gameplay front. The campaign is one of the dullest games in recent memory, in my opinion at least. Call me a hater, but i cant see how it got a 9.0 at all.

Call me strange but I liked R:FOM better than R2. R2 just lacks that 'real' feeling to it and the lack of narration basically just kills any chance I ever had at understanding the plot. I got lost as soon as some davidless thing escaped in the prologue and there was no one to explain it for me. Also, R2 feels too much like COD4, which wasn't a bad game. But that feeling you got in R:FOM when you hear that BANG and a Chimera dies... It's not there anymore.

R2 has an obvious improvement. Textures, lighting, scale, and effects have immensely improved.

The visuals however, do suffer from other common next gen effects, like Motion Blur or realistic camera movement.

When you're running as nathan hale, I seriously feel like I'm riding on a skateboard without every having to kick-off.

Resistance: Fall of Man is so much better. Sure, the co-op in Resistace 2 rocks, but overall, Fall of Man is just better. Better story, better narrative, better environments, and you have the ability to carry a ton of weapons.

Resistance 2 might look better, but it certainly plays much worse IMO. I seriously don't know why everyone thinks it's such an improvement.

that is exactly what R2 looks like. Thats not even half of what PS3 is capable of either. R2 is decent, but being the powerhouse it is your going to see alot better graphics than that from the PS3.

I agree that Fall of Man was better (although I think the environments were both good). At the same time, I can still recognize the qualities of R2 as advancements; the only thing I see as a real downgrade is that R2 didn't have as many skirmish fire fights as the original. I also prefer the handling of the original game better.

I also agree that the story was told rather poorly. While I liked the content of the story, it was told almost entirely off-panel, which was annoying. Hopefully, R3 will correct this.

For whatever reasons... I kinda liked the way the Chimera looked in R1 better than R2. I liked them greyer and skinnier... lol. But they still scared the heck out of me R2.

I agree the narrative and storyline was better... but I like Resistance 2 much better. And carrying a ton of weapons was cool... but kinda took the realism out of it... felt very "Ratchet and Clank" to me.

Other than co-op, Resistance 2 feels like a step back. Resistance: FoM just handled things a hell of a lot better.
