Following the announcement of Resident Evil 4 releasing on the PlayStation Network this fall, a screenshot comparison between the PS2 and PSN version of the critically acclaimed title has been unveiled.

thats.......creepy....

On a side note... wth is a "sceenshot" lol

kaveti66165532d ago

you don't know what a screenshot is?

and you're laughing out loud.

ironic, because your ignorance makes me want to weep.

kaveti66165532d ago

godammit, i need glasses.

sorry, my bad.

CameronL995532d ago

This comparison is fixed, what kind of 1984 television was the original being played on? lol
I NEVER remember RE4 being THAT fuzzy, and I was playing it on PS2.

Yeah this is great news! Who needs a new Resident Evil game, when you have REmakes!!!1! Oh sorry a "REmake" would be a something like a remastered version of Raccoon City. You know, for exploring, survival, updated controls, mass waves of zombies, playing as someone else... I Meant Ports!! With nothing added to them.......

.....but a price tag Yeah!!!

BDSE5532d ago

And it's not even going to be released on disk, I might have got it if they were.

RockmanII75532d ago

There are so many HD remasters this gen you should be used to it now.

cjflora5532d ago

And a gun to your head!!! Wait, nevermind I forgot you don't have to buy it if you don't want to.

DaTruth5532d ago

I never played this game before, so I really appreciate it! I would never find, nor want the PS2 version!

Did it ever occur to you that maybe some people never played it before!

And what happened with the "revival collection" (RE4+RE:CV)?

Redlogic5532d ago

It's still coming out...i saw something about it today.

Warprincess1165532d ago

Well to be honest, those screenshots for the ps2 version is horrible. When you do a comparison article, your suppose to make sure both pictures are at the highest quality. The ps2 pics suk. They are just a blurry mess. So this article suks.

user94220775532d ago

Actually, it shows how big of an improvement it is when the game gets an HD upgrade.

For example:

RedDead5532d ago (Edited 5532d ago )

Not really, Gamecube was by far the best non HD version, shouldn't it be compared to that? Or the Wii version(which is basically the gamecube version)

Also the Ps2 version wasn't nearly as bad as those shots there.

sinncross5532d ago (Edited 5532d ago )

Im sorry, there is something a little suspect here.

The HD remaster looks better sure, but that PS2 picture is off.
http://ps2media.ign.com/ps2...

That is what the game looked like... clearer then the PS2 in those comparison.

Ingram5532d ago

Don't be so naive, those screens came straight out of Capcom's marketing department.

They're just trying to cover their asses and make it look like they've been hard at work.Which is not a good sign.Sadly, after seeing this kind of tactic, I bet you my balls we will see signs of clear lazyness in the final port of this.

JoySticksFTW5532d ago (Edited 5532d ago )

What a lying-ass article this is.

Don't give them the hits.

RE4 on PS2 wasn't this bad.

Heck, the game even came with a progressive scan option to make it even more smooth

lizard812885532d ago (Edited 5532d ago )

I don't recall it looking that bad? the ps2 pics were was blurry as hell. were the shots taken on a cellphone camera?!

why not compare it to the wii version...the current (better/best version of RE4)?
probably because there isn't much of a graphical difference there. knowing capcom, they will "HD" it, and call it a day.

Man In Black5532d ago

PS2 version didn't look that bad. Sure, it wasn't as good looking as the Wii version, and the cutscenes were pixellated as hell, but it still looked great considering the hardware.

ThanatosDMC5532d ago

These pics look like the came from the PC version and they took a screen capture and blurred half of the screen shot. I'm calling bullshit on this. They didnt look that bad.

Marcello5532d ago (Edited 5532d ago )

From wat i can see all they are going to do is just up the res & thats it, cheap bastards !! i just hope the cut scenes are real time & not Mpegs like there were in the PS2 & PC version

Thats why the PS2 screenshots look like shite cos they were low res mpegs

Solid_Snake-5532d ago

gamecube version looks better than both ps3 and psn version.

GodsHand5532d ago

Well assuming the ps2 version ran at the highest resolution possible of 1280x1024, and the PS3 version is running at 1920x1080 that could be the difference you see. But I know the PS2 version was not out putting that high of a resolution on the PS2, and I can say I doubt the PS3 vesion is out putting at that resolution as well.

ian725532d ago

The PS2 versions in those photo's are poor. The game looks a lot better than those pictures show.

gman_moose5532d ago

I agree. PS2 version was not that blurry. Very misleading to make the PSN version look better.

Don't get me wrong, I'm sure it will look much better, but this article fails to show that.

maddfoxx5532d ago

The screenshots for the orginal PS2 version look terrible, because thats what it looks like when you try to play it in HD on a PS3. Trust me, I tried and the fuzziness makes RE4 unplayable on the PS3. Another reason why PS3's shouldnt be backwards compatible. It makes ALL Ps2 games look worse then how they already do.

Wizziokid5532d ago

very nice improvement, will be download this! :D

MeanOldman5532d ago

imma do the same. got the disk version but gotta get this.

tommy-cronin5532d ago

Normally id say leave the classic games alone, but this game just has an exception, if i hear one person say there gonna get this game for trophies Im gonna seriously have to kill them

BK-2015532d ago

What is resident evil? Oh well I'll just get it for easy trophies just like I did with Hannah Montana the game.

Too_many_games5532d ago

i AM going to get this game for trophies...and for fun!

ThanatosDMC5532d ago (Edited 5532d ago )

Same here. I loved RE4. Leon > Chris & Sheva

Played it to get all the hidden/unlockable guns and finished Merc mode.

Philoctetes5532d ago

I beat RE4 on the PS2 at least 20 times. Probably more. Damn right I'm getting it for trophies. I earned them.

Ingram5532d ago

Capcom must think we were born yesterday.

Those are clearly doctored shots, so we don't run around saying to each other "hey, how little improvement"

Less PR and more work on getting the GC remake and others Capcom, you really are cheap this generation, what will you try to charge us for this one, full retail price I guess?, don't even dare...We are thankful for this, just don't play with us, you're slowly getting near the line Activision and Squeenix crossed some time ago.

wtf, good thing I already played and finished the game when it came out

walken799d ago

Once again hurting the people who purchase and support the game. Meanwhile pirates get the best version. Pathetic.

PRIMORDUS99d ago

There is already someone or a group called voices38, that has been cracking Denuvo games lately. Not the newest games, but getting there.

PRIMORDUS99d ago

I wonder if the pirated copies run better like this one titled here: "Resident Evil 4: Remake - Gold Edition (No Denuvo) (v1.5.0.0 + All DLCs + Bonus Content + MULTi14) (From 50 GB)"

Furesis98d ago

i don't think so? as far as i know even pirated version have denuvo or whatever runing in the background, they just trick it to say that yes this is a legit copy or just skip that process, but im not 100% sure. regardless this is an endless battle where legit consumer "suffer" sometimes. it's not that big of a deal MOST of the times and i understand publishers not wanting people to get access to their games for FREE so, i cant blame them honestly. i do find it odd that they wouldn't just remove DRM completely considering most people already played it? not like they are getting more sales anymore, just lower the price remove DRM but i guess thats why they still have it because they dont want to lower the price. oh well

1nsomniac98d ago (Edited 98d ago )

A perfectly acceptable excuse to pirate the game.

Why would you accept to pay for the game in order for it to install software you don’t want with the intention to make your playing experience worse. Paying for that would be the very definition of stupid.

I’m not against DRM but if it negatively effects a product you’re paying for. Then it’s on them not you.

You know I would have liked this if it was added on for free. A nice substitute for Assignment Ada.
