God of War 2 is awesome, but especially because of the whole game design and very impressive boss fights. The graphics are impressive for a game system released in the year 2000.

If God of War 2 would have been a PS3 only game running in SD resolution unmodified the game would have scored much lower. To give you an example in the past some c64 games scored higher than the Amiga versions because the reviewers were more impressed by what the developers were able to push out of the c64 despite that the Amiga version offered much better graphics, more on screen action and much better graphics. Mario Galaxy doesn't look that impressive for a game developed for a game system released in 2006.
IMO this thread regarding the PS3's power doesn't solely regard graphics, it regards game complexity in general.
For example obviously the Nintendo DS (I like very much), PS2 or Nintendo Wii isn't powerful enough for a game like Lair.
