lol, your opinion. It being rendered at 720p as little to do with it....and more to do what you actually see on screen, expecially since the human eye can't see the difference in such a small gap of resolution, MGS4 is also upscaled to 1080p.

I just think MGS4 character models LOOK sharper and more detailed.

lol at your logic tho...funny stuff.

Not talking about PC gaming here...but consoles and HDTV's..you know, sitting at a reasonalble distance. I love gears 2 to death, but all this talk about it being 720p native, certainly didn't hide the jaggies through out the game. 

The developers for MGS4 did a amazing job on the game, making sure it looked superb, even tho the native reso was lower or had less poly's...it comes to talent and how well you can work with whats available. 

the whole more poly's and netter RESO BS doesn't work, since one can't notice the extra detail anyways...and since it isn't a major difference. its just haters being picky and thinking it does. 

i've noted that when it comes to textures and envrioments, Gears 2 wins hands down...its obvious. I'm betting some of the gears 2 supporters here haven't even played MGS4.

Games that run below 720p ( upscaled trash ) with average 30fps and droping,with temporal AA aren't anything special.

Stay on topic, don't find an excuse to hate...MGS4 graphics as shown on a HDTV is dam good, its character models are SHARPER and more clear, and very detailed. Gears of war 2, IMO..hold up better enviromental detail and overal scale. But if you've beaten MGS4 you would know which has better models. 

so MGS4 > Gears 2's character models

Gear 2 > MGS4's textures/enviroemnts.

BTW, Gears 2 is upscaled from 720p to 1080p....lol.

MGS4 beause not only is it a much better game. The game pushed graphics a long forward and had such high presentation values, in cut-scenes and in gameplay. metal gear solid 4 really steps out from the crowd, while GeoW2 looks like more the same UE3 graphis style. Metal Gear Solid 4 is technically the most impressive game on consoles this gen, combine that with its excellent graphics and high end cahracter models and uique style, Gears 2 really doesn't have a chance.

[QUOTE="-Mad_Rhetoric-"] the devs, fans, and most gamers would disagreeredCloudJ7

Including a run and shoot mechanic. While making ammunition and health very rare. And making the AI more intelligent and agressive.

How would this not preserve a survival- horror tension?

thats pretty stupid, there should only be one core gameplay, not 2. and everyone will pic the shooting and moving type anyways. I think what they should do is beef up the enemys and like the other guy said, make them more aggressive...have then run at you full on and attack, not stop half way. that way you can move and shoot. 

[QUOTE="Eyezonmii"]

Anyone else think reviews will jump all over the game due to not being able to move and shoot? It doens't bother me, but knowing the ammount of titles out there with SIMILAR mechanics, i'm betting reviewers will feel the need to address it and even lower the score.

If they do, they need to keep in mind that RE5 isn't a full blown action title, but a horror one, enemies aren't people with guns. Like capcom said, the stop and shoot gameplay, keeps tention.

redCloudJ7

Yes, I think reviewers will jump on Resident Evil 5 becasue of not being able to move and shoot at the same time.

Personally I feel the reviewers should jump on the game for this mechanic. It's unrealistic and silly.

If capcom truly wants to perserve tension they should include the run and shoot mechanic. Greatly lower the amount of bullets the player recieves/ has. Forcing the player to conserve their ammunition. Make the AI more intelligent and aggressive. And the tension would still be perserved.

I think adding WALK AND SHOOT, is good enough...not to extreme and still keeps tention...ala, DEAD SPACE. 

comparing a proven franchise shooter to a platformer or what ever it is kiddy game....wow, fair.

everyone knews gears 2 was going to stomps on LBP...
