Democracy: when 51% of people can have an IQ of 3 and yet make decisions for the the rest of us.

Second Son.

Yep. Because 51% of people decided democracy was a good idea and would throw a hissy fit if they couldn't have it.

Now we have to live with it. So where's my poll? Or is this China?

Seeing as the polls are easily manipulated i suppose you could say we live in the illusion of a democracy on this site

I have yet to see something as impressive as the waterfall in Ryse.

Infamous Second Son

At its best Ryse is the best looking especially the forest level.
As a whole I think Second Son is the most impressive.

ISS vs Ryse.

If one were to agree that the ISS screenshots look better than Ryse, then there is still the fact that:

- It's at a higher resolution
- The environments are more detailed (e.g rain soaked)
- Average FPS is higher
- It's open world

This really is no contest. You might say there are sections of Ryse that look better, but you'll always be able to say that in graphics contests. Overall ISS has more impressive graphics, and that makes a strong case for saying "it looks better" than Ryse.

Was it ever the best looking console game? I'd say it's sitting at around number 3 right now.

Second Son is better. Have you seen the neon and pixel effects?
