I think it's safe to say the PS3 is the definitive graphics king for this gen

Winning Best graphics in 2008 holds little meaning now (and to be fair Gears 2 got a reasonable number of awards that year, when did Killzone ever get as many?)

I don't have trouble accepting public opinion, but you're making your opinion "public opinion." I have not ever read a single article which said Uncharted 2 looks better then the better looking games released after it (GoW3, Killzone 3, Gears 3, Uncharted 2, etc). This is your opinion, not a general concencus, and I'm just pointing that out.

And I already accepted your graphic list, I said that really after Uncharted 3, anyone can argue what's #2. Your list will be different then mine because you took differenct experiences from games differently then me, and everyone else. After all you might put UC2 above GoW3, but I bet GodofWar_3ever would say the oposite.

Having a game win best graphics anually....yes PS3 has done that, if you read I never argued that, I only argued that if you played these games today, how would they rank. Something from 2008 wouldn't rank too high as they are able to push the PS360 more now. Also you never know about 2012, Halo could win, or even Resident Evil 6....or knowing IGN, XenoBlade. lol.

Published almost a year ago.

Its my personal opinion, but the PS3 continues to release the best looking games for each year. How they stack up now is none of what I am highlighting. I am simply saying the PS3 is the hardware that impresses critics yearly. Get that through your head.

"Yes PS3 has done that"
THERE WE GO! FINALLY, PHEW, YEAH!

It has done that. Now wether 2009 and 2010 is not up on par with Multiplatforms can be discussed. I personally feel it is, you might not. All im saying is every year for the last 4 years, the games that recieve most acclaim for moving the bar up are: PS3 exclusives. Just like you said. YAY :D Good! :')

In regards to the German Article, it only supports my arguement. Metal Gear Solid 4 didn't even make the top 10 (Gears of War 2 beat it :P), and Gears of War 3 took #4. Yes Gears 3 placement supports your order (1 website), but it also supports my arguement about how best graphics in 2009/2010 (Gears 3 beat Uncharted 2 as well, wasn't UC2 #2 on your list?) mean nothing in the grand scheme.

PS3 and 360 both produce excellent looking games each year, and I will admit in general, PS3 has that 1 exclusive which looks better then the 360 compeditor (UC3 > Gears 3, MGS4 = Gears 2 despite that article you gave, GoW3 > Mass Effect 2, etc). However it's not a big enough difference to give PS3 the crown, and it's subject to opinion (I still think Forza 4 has 2011), that's all I'm saying. Let's see how 2012 pans out, Halo 4 could top The Last of Us, and Resident Evil 6 could top them all.
