No, I stand by what I said. Its a personal preference. when I look at the best looking PC games; Crysis, Battlefield, Witcher 2 I can honestly say that I find Halo 4 more stunning. The same way I would say Mario Galaxy trumps many HD platformers in the visuals department.

It really isn't a personal preference when you make a bold claim like that. There are PC games that no console game can match, which truly isn't up for debate. 

You can have your opinions, but it doesn't change anything.

"Now I think of it, I don't think I've sen any PC games which I would say look as good".. Emphasis on the "I", of course its personal opinion. We are talking about something looking "good" not realistic. I'm not counting polygons here, I'm simply conveying the impression the visuals left on me. What would you say is the best looking PC game released thus far?

When you say the best LOOKING game, people are going to talk about what is visually most appealing, realistic or otherwise. Halo 4 shouldn't even be put in a situation like that, let it shine on its own without having to compete with the likes of PC.

As far the best looking games from me, when you can mod, it changes the game. Crysis 1 & Crysis 2, Hard Reset, & Skyrim all modded destroy what I've seen from consoles, and hardly anyone ever disagrees. And in Vanilla, their console counterparts are still no match. Couple that with the fact that consoles can barely pump out 30fps @ 720p half the time, while PC's constantly can run many games @ 60-120fps+ in 1080p and that is why people are arguing with you.

Whats your take on the open - linear though?

Take GTA4 for instance. It does way more than Halo 4. Should it be crowned best looking game of this generation?

Can you even compare GTA4 and Halo 4 technically? Maybe one is qualified enough to do so but that still does not change the fact that Halo 4 looks better than GTA4 on consoles pure visually.

Now flip this and compare it to the games that are even more linear =>

Then it becomes rather apparant that Halo 4's texture quality for one is not as good as the linear games: God of War 3, UC3/UC2, Gears of War 3 etc.

So can it be the best looking game on consoles when it simply ...isnt the best looking?

Just want your thoughts on it.
