I prefer the look of Resistance 2. Everything in Gears looks washed out and foggy.

Gears is the definite winner for me, even if those screens do look massively touched up.

Resistance 2 looks good, and is definitely way above the first one, but I don't think I can ever look at it as a graphics king.

This "chainsawed" Locust would have to be rendered by the Gears 2 engine, though, right? So Resistance 2 looks as good as Gears 2? Yeah. We know.

Agreed 100%. I'm not a big fan of how either of these games look, but I think Gears 2 looks better.

Gears 2 by a mile, at least from these pics. Soon when the games are available, we shall all see for ourselves how these two stack up both in visuals and more importantly, game play.

Prediction........ Gears 2 by a mile. :twisted:

Exactly, why Resistance 2 seems like such a big step up is because the first one did not look all that good to begin with but Gears 1 did.

im liking the look of R2 so far, if they can get the story right then insomniac will make the shooter we all know they are capable of making, im not hyping but im hoping for a 9.0 standard game for both of these.

The fact that a game is bigger does not make its graphics as good as another, sorry.

Just like last year, Gears of War 2 will curbstomp Resistance 2 in graphics, gameplay, overall reviews, overall sales, and overall fun factor and longer gaming community life.

Resistance has some weird colors to it, doesnt look good at all

GEARS still has that gritty look to it

I think Gears2 looks better

Those are called primary colors.

I'm sorry, but Gears 2 blows Resistance 2 out of the water. At least compare it to Killzone 2, which actually does look really good.

Gears look a little better but only a little saying looks way better is fanboyism, by the way Resistance in some part looks better like the ground, but characters models and some of the mountains looks better on Gears 2. Both looks good in the graffics department.

IMO the green lighting really hurts the overall look. It doesn't look real, and it isn't stylistic or expressive. It just looks bad. The artwork is probably the worst part about Resistance, however. The enviroments are pretty bland, and the enemy designs are shockingly generic. The Chimera look straight out of a 50's sci-fi movie, although the rest of the game lacks that kind of campy appeal.

By the way people saying the colors of Gears looks better ae blind Resistance have better colors on screen Gears is just like killzone to much of one color on scren, Gears 2 is a upgrade in colors compared to Gears 1 but still almost the same.fjburgos

R2 looks more impressive to me on screen shots as well in motion. Insomniac outdid themselves with R2. Gears 2 barely looks better than the first!! Honestly, the art style EPIC uses is getting old real fast.. its all "bro-manish" lol. R2 art stlye is more beautiful. But wait, i have paid for both games limited editions so ill compare once the games in my possession. If GEARS2 doesnt wow me like the first it failed in my book.. GEARS2 better be as revolutionary as the first GEARS!!

Yeah, they're going for a retro look in case you didn't get that. But if your gonna talk about bland environments, you can't leave gears out of the discussion, grey city street, grey corridor, and occasional destroyed car, there is nothing exciting about Gear's environments. R2 has mixed it up, adding forrest settings and really improving the color of the game. The chimera look awesome btw.

And how are the locust any more original, Big aliens that look like ugly humans, straight out of doom 3 or countless other games

Both games look quite a bit better in motion. I'm not really a big fan of screenshots, you can never really quite get it to look 100% like you would want it to. But going by this comparison Gears looks the best easily. Though I would have liked to have seen some screenshots of Chicago from Resistance 2, that did look impressive. It dosn't really matter though. They are two completely diffrent engines, and so really should not look very similar at all. The version of Unreal that Epic are using right now is probably the most advanced graphics engine to have ever been used on a game to date, and so you really expect it to look damn fine. At the end of the day it all comes down to gameplay, and well see what wins by the end of November. I'll be getting both, so it's almost a moot point to me.

They both look good enough to the point that I don't really care about the differences. Gears of War 2 has more complicated geometry and better textures, and Resistance 2 is also very impressive when you consider the scale of the environments.

The good thing about Resistance 2 is that their screenshots actually look like the in-game footage unlike gears 2.And most of the pictures of Resistance 2 tc posted are taken from gameplay footages.So yeah it does indeed look better.Gears 2 is completely something different during gameplay.Its foogy,dull,blurry and less textures.

lol again people like dont seem to notice that comparing a launch to a non launch games makes zero sense.

I dont really liek the 80's comic book bulky character look.
