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.

Hmmm...well, I would give Halo 4 major props as top console FPS, because the lighting is truly something else. Better than I ever thought the 360 would achieve. 

But for consoles overall, I still say God of War III has a commanding lead. I went back and played it this weekend and realized whi Praised it in 2010. It may have been linear, it may have fixed camera, but its texture detail, lack of aliasing, and scale are unlike anyting I've ever seen in a console title (and the lighting still comeptes with current day games). I know you are for Uncharted 3, which is the second best I've seen on home consoles, but God of War III is closer to PC titles than most console games based on that (also variable 30-60fps as 720p).

I see thanks :}
