Having a better art many will, look at Shadow of the Colossus on PS2. Technicaly any PS3 game look better than it, but, in matter of art it's far better than many current games.

To have a good looking game it isn't necessary just horsepower, many game in ps2 are more beautiful than PS3/360 games duo to the art and the capability to trick the player.

Technicaly it's impossible just because there aren't enough power to do so.

That's why I always, in my evaluation of a game, seperate art direction from technical graphics.

Even a fairly low res game technically can look wonderful with the correct art direction.

ICO and SOTC do have great art direction, so do games like Okami.

Crysis has middling art direction I thought - although it's of course limited by setting, as the aliens, etc. aside everything has to look as expected - i.e. a Jeep looks like a Jeep, a tree looks like a tree.

Obviously fantasy setting games have an advantage with Art Direction, as they can go to town without havint to look like something already known in the real world.

I agree with you 100%. I mean I look at Valkyrie Profile 1 for the PS1 with the water color backgrounds and it is by no means an eyesore. That game is absolutely beautiful. So is VP2. Muramasa on the Wii is also amazing.
