Neither is Uncharted 2, its just colorful.

Its all in your head, you think that PS3 has a 43254353x c311 super duper GPU processor and that the 360 and every thing else has a PS2 gpu and that PS3 exclusives automatically look a couple generations ahead.

No im not insulting you, i explained it before, its just something that Sony does to make you THINK your getting super duper graphics. Same could be said about PC games and 360 games.

Fact is, Most games look decent, the only really good looking exclusive game on PS3 is Killzone 2.

hmm they both looked good...but then again lets actually wait until crysis is finished and ready to play.Having said that,shoudnt be too,toooo long before kz3 is out

Haha epic.

But that is sad that he actually believed that!

Kinda reminds me of the thread he made about Gran Turismo PSP looked as good as Forza 3. 

As far as those screenshots go, Killzone 2 has better textures, most notably on the gun. But this analogy sums up my thoughts on Killzone 2's graphics:

You can take a pig, give it a bath, shine it up real nice and put a bow around it's neck, and you'll have the best looking pig around. In the end you'll still have a pig.

Guerilla Games took a god-awful looking game and shined the shit out of it, maybe that makes it "next gen" to some people, to me it's still god-awful looking.

Wow ... I can't decide lol.

Still, KZ2 was FPS of the year for Gamespot, it's still considered as the most beautiful FPS ever released, while Crysis 2 well... it's not even released yet, so you can hardly compare anything.

Comparing future PC games to present console games doesn't make much sense. Ultimately, of course your 2000 $ PC will run more impressive games than older 300 $ consoles. By those standards, Halo 3 and Gears 2 look the ugliest. At least Killzone 2 is a close contender.

I guess you missed the part where I said all graphics are tricks?

Yeah the "trick" part in Selnor's post is especially funny. EVERY graphics is about doing tricks which make the picture more beautiful. Of course it's about using EVERY trick needed.

Talking about "tricks" as a negative thing in game graphics is like screaming "I'm a newbie who knows nothing about game development" for me. There was a dev article about that some times ago. Too bad I lost the link.

So im not the only who thinks this way.. nice!

Let's face it, every game development is about getting the most of the machine you're working on. So of course you need tons of tricks. If a trick makes you lose basically nothing in picture quality and gain 10 % CPU time then of course you'll use it. It's all about pros vs cons for every trick.

The thing is : this is true for EVERY game, including KZ2 AND crysis 2.

Thinking Crysis 2 is somehow "less optimized" or deliberately chose not to use tricks is beyond stupid : of course they're optimized and used tricks too, that's the name of the game in game dev.
