anybody who’s ever used a 3d rendering program like 3d max studios could see how horrible GoW2 would look like without normal mapping. seriously, it’s like they took N64 characters and slapped high res textures on them.
Thats not the point...IT LOOKS good and it uses way less resources that way to
but the problem with low polys is that you can’t manipulate them as much as you could with something that has more poly’s. for example, a biscep wouldn’t be able to flex the way it should if you use only 6 polys. it’ll suck balls. another thing is when an object is actually in motion, you can tell the difference in an object with more polys when it comes to edges and smoothness. you can’t fake a circle with a square.
A strawberry smoothie tastes better than an artificialy flavored smoothie with the latest advanced technology in artificial flavoring.
You don’t need the latest technology to make something look better, if you understand the comparison.
take a close look at this thing. see how his abdomen seem to stretch the textures? and notice how the uniform seems flat, like it was really tight cloth instead of actual armor? None of the straps seem to be sticking out either, like it was pained on...

It looks like GTA4...GTA4 was impressive for a sandbox game. RE5 looks way better than Alan Wake. After seeing this video, I think Alan Wake will have good graphics, not great but good.

Alan Wake isn’t building itself on good graphics, it has amazing draw distance, lightning, physics, etc. The tech demo is over 2 years old. So imagine the game now.
