@dahuman: You're confusing presentation and art style with graphics. We were talking about the potential technical jumps of AW that according to you could never reach the level of improvement from UC1 to UC2, weren't we? I give you evidence that the technical jump isn't THAT big, and all you can say is how many awards it got? You say that to dismiss what's been put in front of you.. Suddenly you turn to subjective claims and opinions to determine technical jumps.. Yeah.. Real sound argument there.. But whatever keeps your boat floating.

And are you saying Dirt 2 doesn't look good? O.o I would hardly call this a bad looking game..

No that's no bullshot. It's a direct feed screenshot of the X360 version, taken by DF. Anyway, even if that's not a good enough example. What about GRID then? F.E.A.R. 2? HAWX? Resident Evil 5? Are you gonna say those are not good looking either? Sounds like you're in some serious circular reasoning..

I said don't expect it, not could never, my name is not S****r. HD consoles are so limited in power that what might not look like a minor deal is actually quiet a big improvement in optimizing the engines. Not to mention those are dynamic AA, not full fledged, and after having played all those on PC, I do think they look like ass on consoles, so sue me.
