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

Well Uncharted 3 is the graphics King overall right now, after that...it's obviously debatable. People will argue where 2011 360 exclusives and MP titles rank (Some say above GoW3 and UC 2, some say below, most agree better then 2008 and older offerings).

On an annual basis, GoW for 2010, Uncharted 2 for 2009, MGS4 (although not a landslide victory against Gears 2) for 2008, and 2007 Crysis (PC) followed by Uncharted/Modern Warfare (no clear 2nd), 2006 - Gears of War.

Awards based off Gamespot, Gametrailers and IGN.

MGS4 had the best graphics of 2008. Gears of War 2 couldn't contest it and it came out in 2009. That game pushed the PS3 early in its lifespan.

Gears 2 got 1/3rd as many best Graphics Awards as MGS4, and both released in 2008. Gears 3 took 3 years to develop remember?
