In the end, I agree with you, but consider this: how much photoshop and how many filters have been applied to make those pictures look more amazing than their real life counterparts?

Couldn't tell ya, I didn't take the pictures, and have never been to the sites in question.  The guy who takes the Iceland photos has a ridiculous pile of them though (and a ton of incredible Ice cave shots).

Oh I believe you. I've been to Iceland, and it's really beautiful. That said, pictures aren't always representative of how the things they depict actually look irl.

Neither is what our eyes show us :)  Technically, what we see isn't reality, it's the brains best understanding of what's there.  There's actually a shitload more going on that our eyes just aren't tuned to see.

Haha, true, but I think you know what I mean Perhaps I should've written "pictures aren't always representative of what you would have seen if you were to see what they depict irl"

FYI here's a picture I took when I was there (I was 13 and it was with an Iphone, but I still think it turned out alright)

It's the best looking game of this generation; it's enough for me :D Can't wait anymore !!!!!!!!

I see what you're getting at but using that angle Uncharted 4 is not the first game to present a world that's "better than real life". I do love the world Uncharted presents though.



Signature goes here!

Bet you can't just jump in that like you can in a game. If not for the sharp rocks, the hot or probably toxic water, the autorities would have a word with you :)

I've done my share of travelling too, and sure real life is a lot more than pictures. Being eaten alive by mosquitos in Santorino, or having to abort trekking down into the Grand Canyon by severe headaches from the opressive heat :p No picture beats standing on the top of a peak just above the clouds in the Pyrenees or making it over a narrow ridge to the top of Angel's landing. But if a game can remind me of visiting those beautiful places then all the better for it.

And if you are looking for real real graphical porn: Drive Club

Drive Club looks awesome too, yes. But Uncharted 4 looks better - and the game is bigger ^^
