I will admit that I am slightly biased (I hate Sony with a burning passion from deep within my very soul, but I digress), but I will give credit where credit is due. Uncharted 2 looks amazing (though there are some "meh" textures from time to time) and God of War 3 looks great as well. I just feel that everyone is oblivious to the fact that it looks good from a technical standpoint, but as far as design goes, it's nothing to write home about. 

I should also mention that the Source engine is still the best engine ever, and Cryengine 3 will do little to change that.

I think this is further proof that your likes and dislikes of games/developers/companies are heavlly colouring your judgment about tech and engines :) HL and HL2 are in my personal top 5 games list, but I would describe Source today as adequate and very cleverly put together rather than anything else. Let's not forget that it was born at a time when it had to scale back down to DirectX 7 and no multithreading.
