pumpkinpunker6443d ago

Look at those production values.

prowiew6443d ago

360 man6443d ago

hahaha and is resistance 2 supposed to compete with this lool

zimbo0076443d ago

http://sev1512.files.wordpr...

hahha motherfuccer that trash box 360 is finished

shutupandplay6443d ago

oh yeah, I saw that pic a couple years ago...oh wait. Sorry, That`s the new one. I knew that.

play_b3yond6443d ago (Edited 6443d ago )

@shutupandplay
You should really shut up and play your damn game. Both Resistance and Gears 2 look good and will sell millions. Anyone saying these two games look like sh!t should shut up and just enjoy their games on their favorite consol.

StrikingDmc46443d ago

isnt an fps allow more room for better rendering than a 3rd person which has to render the character itself rather than through a hud?

LikAChicken6443d ago

Yea this game is definitely looking pretty good

DJ6443d ago

Are the biggest factors, as well as polygonal detail, AI complexity, and physics interactions between environment and said characters.

keep dreaming dreamer loool

christian hour6443d ago

Why even mention resistance? Its an FPS. Gears is a third person shooter... that plays nothing like resistance at all. They're two completely different games, both equally good (well, RFoM1 wasnt so great... but the second one is looking sweet!)

Stop been such a fan boy. It just makes you look close-minded and immature.

shutupandplay6443d ago

Feel free to think that. I bet those 60 player matches require about as much thought and skill as you put into your comment.

whothedog6443d ago

Yes Gears 2 will own too.

But they are both shooters, and the atmosphere in the games are somewhat similar. Your battling huge groups of enemies with some bosses. So not really two completely different games but they are somewhat different.

And you know people are comparing both games to each other because they are major titles coming out for each system. I see comparisons all the time in video demonstrations or articles.

whothedog6443d ago (Edited 6443d ago )

EDIT : your right DJ

hmmmmm 30v30 or 5v5...... IMO I would take more people over less.... more fun too me, I love the BF series so the way they are doing the multiplayer is something Im looking forward too

Heres one for the Gears fans, Would you guys want them to go in depth with weapons and classes in multiplayer?

DJ6443d ago

Or simply don't like it. Skill is based on how easily you can take the other person down. That's it.

Funky Town_TX6443d ago

Okay GEARS 2 suxs. Stop watching the vids and reading about the game. The mighty R2 will be out soon so nothing else should matter.

Martini6443d ago

This game is based on small 4v4 or 5v5 multiplayer, the maps are based on the same number of players - this worked well for the first one as it was the most played game on live for a year so why change the successful formula?

Sony fans need to get this into their thick skulls - Gears is Gears and not Resistance or Battlefield or Frontlines Fuel of war (50 players btw, with jets, helicopters, tanks etc..)

deno6443d ago

ahh ha!! Just like resistance 1 owned gears 1 right? Go play metal gears solid okay pal.

whothedog6443d ago (Edited 6443d ago )

Well honestly I would agree with you, both were great games but I would say Gears 1 had the advantage in the PAST.... don't dwell on the past :)

But after looking at all the info and now the great graphics on Resistance 2, everything that Resistance is offering I think it would own Gears 2. More depth, especially in the multiplayer aspect, 8 player co-op, different storyline than the single player, I would imagine the single player is lengthly based off the first game.

EDIT for Kuest

I wont take up another thread just for you ;) but if people are going to make comments toward my direction I will respond. you act like no one does this vise versa.

I will just leave it at......

BOTH GEARS AND RESISTANCE will own. :)

Edit

haha its all good man. Alls fair for love and video games. :P

Kuest6443d ago (Edited 6443d ago )

Yes, that means you. Oops, sorry. i just happened to glance up at you user name.

Anyways, since you're so interested with Gears why not wait until OFFICIAL reviews come in? Then, and only then, may we compare the size of either of our console's d!cks. But, until that (potentially) dangerous time, why not give your Resistance monologue a rest, and give those who actually care about Gears room to continue caring.

As an extra incentive, I'll give you bubbles if you'll shut up. Not that you need them; God knows what you'd say next, if you had more bubbles. So, i take back my earlier promise. You can just shut up for free.

edit:

Nothing is fair, my friend, not even hypocrisy; one can't simply state "things go both ways" and expect a 'get out of jail free' card. It depends whose nerve you scratch, and if someone calls you out, than respect it as your own fault. You're not a fanboy, but what you did was uncalled for, hence my rude tone.

There no doubt exist other 360 fans, who constantly troll PS3 news, but from what I've seen thus far, those 'xbots' have got their just due. And if not, shame on the myriad ps3 users who over run this site.

Nothing personal, but its the rule of the game. If you say something fanboyish, someone might call you out; if no one does, consider yourself lucky.

Time_Is_On_My_Side6443d ago (Edited 6443d ago )

What if I told you that in Resistance 2 even though it's 30 vs. 30 there will be 5 vs. 5 to control the chaos?

Lol, as far as I know Resistance isn't a Battlefield or Front Lines Fuel of War. It has a strong campaign, a strong multiplayer, a strong co-op, and strong community features, it doesn't sound like a Battlefield to me. As far as I know it's classified as a sci-fi shooter so it will be compared to other shooters. It makes more sense to compare exclusives than to compare the same game on different platforms.

power of Green 6443d ago (Edited 6443d ago )

Report him, don't give him bubbles.
Obviously he is trying to convince himself of that; repeating it/trolling.

I guess people ignor PS3 news so they come here like kids forcing us to care about PS3 sh*t.

EDIT: Dissagree?

Hmmmm OK, I just come here to read news and hear what the "fans" think(no need for angry children outnumbering the fans in every thread like no other base has done to another).

Richdad6443d ago

But it has sacrificed graphics for multiplayer. They had done some changes in engine to do multiplayer and support 60 players and to stream data better over PSn they had to sacrifice graphics.
Gears could also have done that may be they could have got to 24 players by sacrificing graphics in multiplayer but they wanted visual fidelity all the time. Also both are good games. But graphically no mater what any one says R2looks good damn but Gears 2 still looks better.

cherrypie6443d ago (Edited 6443d ago )

Resistence is an "also ran" generic game. It has no place in this discussion.

Want a "big" Multiplayer experience -- go buy Frontlines: Fuel of War -- RIGHT NOW, it has 50 person MP.

That said, anyone who says "Resistence 2 MP is "better" because 60 player vs 10 player MP" is an idiot.

Why? Because you simply need to say **HUXLEY**, which is 120 person MP.

So, then R2 sucks b/c Huxley has 120 person MP. Which may be accurate, but just saying "more people in the MP makes the game best" is retarded.

People seem to be forgetting that the Xbox had a 50 player multi-player shooter title (that the name ATM escapes me).

More players != better.

Gears of War 2 Remake was in development “10 years ago” but was scrapped by Xbox

Ayi Sanchez: "Old work. I did this 10 years ago now as part of a material test for a remaster of Gears of War 2 that never happened."

RaidenBlack431d ago

lolz,
hope we're still getting Gears 2 & 3 for PC, as per rumors

Cacabunga431d ago

Xbox always taking the right decisions

XiNatsuDragnel431d ago

Wow... just wow Microsoft sigh at it again 😑

Lightning77431d ago

Weird, in mean they had no studios to make anything really new so there's a part of me thats kinda glad they scrapped it. If they released this back then it would of gotten ridiculed for remakes and remastering stuff. Now they have new and interesting games so the collection is harmless.

CrimsonWing69431d ago

Geez, Xbox, something like that I would’ve bought Day 1. Great business decisions over there.

lucasnooker431d ago

10 years ago it wasn’t such a big deal. The games were only a few years old by that point

CrimsonWing69431d ago

Gears of War: Ultimate Edition came out in 2015 (essentially 10 years ago), having a follow-up to that on the then next-gen console would’ve absolutely been welcomed, in my book.

LoveSpuds431d ago

I can only assume the the Gears of War Remaster flopped so they decided to scrap the other remakes?

Seems short sighted to me as I really enjoyed the 1st remaster. Regardless, I'll snap up some remakes to play on my PS5.

Ranking The Gears Of War Games From Worst To Best

The Gears of War series has been a consistent deliverer of quality for Xbox, but which games are the best?

Read Full Story >>
culturedvultures.com
KicksnSnares1425d ago

Gears of War is my favorite video game franchise, and the Locust is my all-time favorite faction.

My rank list:
1. Gears of War 2
2. Gears of War 3
3. Gears of War 1
4. Gears of War 4
5. Gears of War 5
6. Gears of War Judgment (No Locust in multiplayer was a disgrace)

ChasterMies1424d ago

Agree 100% with this ranking. The campaign in Gears of War 2 is among the most fun campaigns ever made. It’s been downhill from there.

Zombieburger6381424d ago

I’d say gears 2 and 3 are pretty even. I absolutely loved both of them.

darthv721424d ago

2 is still my favorite but 5 is also up there (for me). Then I'd say 1, 3, 4 and Judgement. Tactics isnt the same type of game, so it seems odd to rank it among TPS when its a strategy game. So I make that one all its own. Pretty fun game too.

Jericho13371424d ago

The first is and has always been the best one imo - the story, the levels, the set pieces, the soundtrack - as close to perfect as a campaign can get.

I’d say the series had been on a continual downhill slide until 5.

Om4ever1424d ago

Naaaan ... 2 is the best by far

MadLad1424d ago

3
5
2
1
4
Judgement

I love the series as a whole, but 4 was pretty by the numbers, and Judgement was just ok.

LoveSpuds1424d ago

I played them all since picking up a Series X about 7 months ago. Personally, I don't think time has been kind to the earlier games and they feel very slow and repetitive to play. Whilst the newer games may be prettier, they stick with the original gameplay mechanics too much in my view so as a whole series of titles, I think they are pretty average games.

Not to say they weren't fun and I have a lot of nostalgia for 1 and 2, I just think there are far better action games out there.

Gears Of War: The Franchise For You

What's the best Gears of War game for players? Where to start? This guide should easily lend a hand.

Old McGroin1558d ago (Edited 1558d ago )

It's brilliant but personally liked part one more. It's the only one that had a near horror movie vibe to it in parts, the atmosphere was amazing.

Also, the commercial for it was 🔥🔥🔥

https://youtu.be/wy8LRlS1SC...

Neonridr1558d ago

Mad World was such a perfect song for that trailer. I loved part 1 too just because it was so fresh at the time. The series has been solid, but experiencing everything for the first time was pretty awesome.

ChasterMies1557d ago

Gears of War 2 has one of the greatest campaigns of all time. Carmine, all that juice, fighting inside a giant worm, and riding monsters.

Knightofelemia1559d ago

Gears 1 and 2 will always be my favorite Gears titles. The scene where Dom find his wife and then has to shoot her was an epic scene.

monkey6021558d ago

I always found that scene laughably bad myself. Fantastic game though.

1 will always be my favourite. Most were great with the exception of 4 being okay and judgement being terrible.

They still have the most satisfying headshots from any multiplayer game around.

lucian2291558d ago

Nah I laughed, the acting was soooooooooo bad

KicksnSnares1559d ago

My favorite Gears game list
1. Gears 2
2. Gears 3
3. Gears 1
4. Gears 4
5. Gears 5
6. Gears Judgement

Gears Of War is my favorite video game franchise. I can’t imagine how Gears 6 will look in UE5 after watching Hellblade 2 gameplay trailer

RetroCaptainSteve1558d ago

Or if they remake 2 and 3 with that engine.

KicksnSnares1558d ago

There is a rumored Marcus Fenix collection (Gears 2 & 3 remake) in the works at the Coalition. Hopefully, it’s true, but I doubt it.

Profchaos1558d ago

For me you can't beat gears 1 the original was so fresh and revolutionary at the time.
Then basically I'd rank it 2,3,5,4 and judgement

Viljong1558d ago (Edited 1558d ago )

One of the reasons why i got the series x. Been fan since the first game.

myfathersbastard1558d ago

Played them all recently on gamepass. Great games. But my favorites gotta be gears tactics. Don’t know why. I just had a blast with it lol
