I don't even know what "better than real life" is supposed to mean.

With that said, the game definitely looks outstanding, and I certainly can't wait for it to come out. 4k gives a magical effect that makes it seem better than real life and games have this effect also, I can't say U4 has it but games in the future made with 4k in mind will look "better than real life" in the sense that theres more colour and a maigical feel to them.

That's entirely subjective, nor does that really work as a definition. For me (and I would bet a lot of people), Wind Waker is both more colorful and magical than real life, but it looks nothing like reality. And even if that worked as a definition, why would that automatically make it "better" than real life. If games are trying to be photorealistic, then I don't see how it's possible for them to look "better" than real life. If they're going for reality, the game either looks exactly like reality (and therefor succeeds) or doesn't (and therefore fails in some way. I'm not trying to say the game doesn't look great--it looks amazing, and very close to reality--but I just don't really get the way that you're choosing to talk about it.

Yep thats what I meant, kinda hard to get the point across but thanks for understanding.

As the very first reply pointed out, racing games have looked better than real life for a while.

Better than real life...

I swear. lol.

Idk how a game can look better than real life but ok. Anyway, game does look great and easily the best looking game on any console by a good mile imo.

I understand what you're saying, and they're getting really close.  But, I can think of a handful of images that I find more visually stimulating:

I could go on and on, but yeah, Uncharted is looking extraordinary :)

No game has convinced me its real life yet

Oh yeah, the natural world is filled with some amazing things...actually, here check this out, not necessarily as visually stunning as the Uncharted images, or the other pics I posted, but still cool as hell.  Nasa just posted this photo of a T-38C passing in front of the sun at supersonic speed.  They record the behavior of the shockwaves for research (open in new tab, it's a big image):

Geez man.. You guys are really hard on the OP.. Maybe he lives in a real shitty place like Detroit.. Yes Uncharted looks better then Detroit
