Game Informer are comparing it with

GTA
Devil May Cry
Ratchet and Clank

and Syphon Filter Omega Strain looks very good to.

Well, the first shot looks like there could be some BM in the backgrounds (behind Daxters head - and the white walling), though.. that\'s grasping at straws.

Characters look much improved from the original.  Was hoping for the old Bump-Mapping, though.

Agreed.

If they have bumpmapping in the game I doubt they will smack it over the whole game world.
Totally bump mapped worlds looks very unrealistic and plastic-like IMO.

Like in Delta Force BHD they only use bump mapping in a few places, like on the rifles or near light sources like a fire (to make it look like the stones on the ground cast shadows.. Looks really neat)
If bm is in Jak II I bet they only have it in a few places.

Bad captures, but from what it appears looks good.
Think for yourself. Question authority.

Who cares? The first game was gorgeous, but at the same time it was nothing but a run-of the mill platformer - and not a very good one at that.

But J&D2 isnt supposed to be realistic anyways.
