edit: PEOPLE this is a graphics thread, meaning technical, polygons, framerate, textures, resolution anti-ailising, etc. it is NOT a art style thread, it is NOT how big the map size a game has. IT IS GRAPHICS.

ok it nearing the end of the year, some major Games have hit the shelves and look phenominal. Lots of games are pushing the current console more than they ever have, and are looking great.

So i thought it was time for a new Best Graphics thread.

the concept is simple, list what you believe to be the top 10 best graphical (technical) games of this gen on console, and assign point accordingly. with the top game getting 10 points, and the last game getting 1. and please use the same formatting as i do, it makes adding up the tally a lot easier.

feel free to add justifications to your answers, it makes things more interesting.

so here we go, here are my top 10.

PLACE TITLE POINTS
1st Killzone 3 10
2nd Uncharted 3: Drake's Deception 9
3rd Uncharted 2: Among Thieves 8
4th God of War III 7
5th Killzone 2 6
6th Battlefield 3 5
7th Gears of War 3 4
8th Crysis 2 3
9th Uncharted: Drake's Fortune 2
10th Dead Space 2 1

*note: i only listed games that i have played extensively, you dont have to do the same.

 

what might come to a surprise to many of you, is i still think Killzone 3 looks better than Uncharted. even though Uncharted does things killzone would dream of doing. for example the freakin precedural ocean, with an ocean liner (ship), and the airplane sequence. i just like killzone graphics better for some reason.

also another thing is 6 of my top 10 are from this year. 1 is from 2010, 2 from 2009, and then one from 2007, which of course is uncharted. Is still will defend with complete earnesty and honesty that 99.9% of game released still havent been able to pass up the first Uncharted in graphics, while it might be a little rough aroundd the edges, there are certainly sections that still make my jaw drop.

 

edit: people please use the same format as me when submitting answers, use the same Table, copy mine if you want. it makes it alot easier to add up when i can clearly see what number the game is, and how many points are assigned to it.
