NeoGAF says its realtime and they've rarely been wrong. Gears of war 2 had a nice run and all but this'll be the first game I buy for the PS3 when the PS3 hits $299 this year.

sequel to "pretty good" 8.0-8.5-ish fps that was hyped up because it was the only good title at launch

It could be real-time although it's most likely not.  The AA looks too good but everthing else seems to be possible in real time.  

And who cares if that dude dies?  Most people probably can't even remember his name.  He ain't no iconic character like Master Chief.

His name is Nathan Insomniac, as opposed to Nathan Naughty Dog.*

spoiler (click to show/hide)
*Mr. Naughty Dog who is THE BEST NEW CHARACTER IN THE LAST TEN YEARS because he's a sarcastic everyday guy who happens to be a rugged treasure hunter surrounded by action and women. Oh man, he just made a remark about how "great" this situation is! And he's wearing a shirt and has hair! What a stunning and welcome new type of character, the Sarcastic Douchebag.

To answer your question though, Resistance was really the only "Good" launch game. Even though is very derivative, it is a an okay shooter   with some entertaining mulitplayer. Not worth the $60 bucks I spent on it though.
Title: Re: Resistance 2 has won Christmas 2008
Post by: demi on April 12, 2008, 02:36:50 AM

Well, the was Genji 2(Shit), Ridge Racer 7(Ridge Racer 6+) and third-party shit that ran like shit. Plus, I'm a FPS fan, so IMO it was the only "good" launch title.

But I do concede that the Single-player was boring. MP was fun for a bit though.

After seeing R&C who knows, maybe it is real time. It'll probably look better when it's released. Needless to say the PS3 has a lot of big sellers in the wing this year. This game looks like it'll sell well, especially if it's released a few months after Killzone

I always thought Killzone was Sep and this was Nov.

If this is Nov I doubt I'll buy it and Gears at the same time, but if it's October like someone else said I'll buy it right off.

I thought Killzone was coming out after?

Anyways, if Sony markets this well, it could be the first REAL PS3 killer app.

As much as I love MGS4, it doesn't have mainstream appeal.

People will buy MGS4 just because of the graphics/marketing imo. I don't think it's going to be a killer app, especially considering there's a 360 version on the way.

MS better make sure Gears of War 2 is good, and more than a slight update to the original. It can't afford to be Halo 3, ie barely GoW 1.5 HD. Also, they've gotta have SOMETHING up their sleeves for Christmas lol. It can't just be one big game...

Don't worry babe I'm clean.

Did the original podcast or whatever actually call it a teaser? I only went by the GAF thread title which said "video."

Yup, and considering the 360 userbase will be even bigger by the holidays I'd expect enormous numbers. But will it sell Xbox 360s? That's the question imo. The last one did, but I'd imagine MS needs something else to play the system seller role this year. Sony has more than a couple games that can fill that role

I don't get how people fall all over themselves every time something like this pops up.  Every single time, and it's almost never real time footage.  No wonder game companies keep doing it over and over.  I've no doubt it will look better than the first game, but based on what I've seen the PS3 display on my HDTV that's not real time, unless there's been some magical unlocking of hidden power.  The PS3 isn't the Batcomputer.  Same goes for the 360.

I thought it was a good teaser, I'm finally working my way through the first game and think that perhaps it was underrated since the PS3 was the 'whipping boy' at the time.
I could see the end scene of the teaser as being realtime, likely from a cutscene, the devs can take a lot of shortcuts for cutscenes to make stuff like that possible.

All I know is this fall I'm going to have a lot to play.

it doesn't look that much different in terms of scale when you compare it to ratchet, i think

i mean, that one had the whole fifth elemnt thing going on, and besides the art-style, it doesn't look that different

if it's not real time, then it's probably like what kev said

Ya

The friend who lent me Resistance 1 said the in-engine cutscenes in that game blew away gameplay graphics, true?

The cutscenes looked sharper and cleaner but they don't blow away the gameplay graphics.  Back in the PS2 days, Insomniac would use in-game assets to create cutscenes that looked much better than gameplay. 

It's possible that they did the same thing with Resistance but it's harder to tell on the PS3.  PS2 realtime graphics were always so blurry that it was obvious to tell whether a cutscene was real time or just a video.

I wasn't attempting to answer that question. The page before me is filled with posts saying "CG." I don't know if it's real time or not. Knowing Insomniac, it's possible. But we had this discussion with Ratchet before this, so whatever.

Doesn't matter what we think, Gears of War 2 will outsell everything this year.  It will be a juggernaut.  It is riding a huge wave of casual fanfare, much like Halo 2 built up to its midnight launch.  Resistance, despite how it fares with the press, hardcore demographic and PlayStation 3 owners, doesn't have the fanbase that Gears has right now.  Maybe if it's indeed "the shit", it'll have that for Resistance 3.
