It's like the original GOW, with better textures, but same old low-rez cinematics.

What you have here it's the same game that you had on the PS2, only upscaled for a HD resolution, that looks pretty good, has a constant frame-rate and it has Trophy support. This game plays fine, just like the PS2 version, the game modes and the gameplay is the same, like the PS2 and the cinematics are low-rez and quite jarring in comparison of the whole game, not quite as the PS2 version,

This version is great to anybody who hasn't played the original version when released back in 2005, but if you had the experience before there's nothing really new to find here. I was disappointed with the somewhat false advertisement about the game being re-mastered in HD when not all the content was upscaled. It might not bother everybody, but for me just felt lazy and a big no-no in the face of going the extra steps to make this an excellent package. Some of the cinematics look upscaled and other videos look like a straight port from the PS2, and it will hurt your eyes.

it's hard to find something to complaint when you can but this game packaged with the GOW2 in a single disc. I had a good time reviving the glory of this game all over again.
