MGS 4 vs. Gears 2 Graphics (no 56k)

Just to clear things up. Gears 2 character models=12.000 polygons, Solid Snake=15.000 polygons. And MGS4 also have better textures on the character models. The camouflage suit that changes it's textures depending on what you stand next to is very impressive looking. MGS4 beats Gears 2 in total, not all the time. And talking about technical graphics, did'nt Gears 2 have some 2d effects and fake lighting effects??

MGS4 has superior character models, and Gears gets the environments and general texture resolution IMO.

They both have thier strenghts and weaknesses, but overall MGS4 gave more characters and varied locales and the best cinematics yet while using the in-game engine so it gets my vote

[QUOTE="TheGrat1"]The lighting in gears is pathetic and the framerate drops to about 10 frames/s if you have more than 6 guys on the screen in local multiplayer. Although the textures are nothing to write home about in MGS4 the lighting is good and the character models are phenomenal. And non-cartoony character models are the hardest things to do in a game imo so MGS4>Gears but its close.themerlin

Rock solid although I've noticed some drops in the brumak and split screen.

hate to tell u this, but i get stutters and slow downs when i play.....never had that problem with gears 2.....

That's an outright LIE.

really? have u played on my ps3, i also have problems with sw force unleashed on the felucia levels and i have problems with need for speed shift when there is heavy tree cover and dirt cloud particle effects.....my problem in mgs4 is in south america at dawn and there is alot of action and shadows goin on...slows down to about 15 fps......not jumpy, just slow......and before u say it.....my ps3 has plenty of ventilation. it is sittin out on my desk with at least a foot of clear space on all sides(except for the bottom) and i have a fan blowin on it. it is the latest 80 gig fat model.

dont call me a liar...just because u havnt run into the problem doesnt me that i havent. quite bein such a fanboy....i happen to love my ps3....i just think it could work better

sorry thought u were callin me a liar cause i had slow downs in mgs4 but not really noticable on gears 2.....sorry,

They both look good, in my opinion...

I prefer MGS4's graphics. From the character designs and even the environments!!! The gears 2 environments are look less realistic if you ask me.
