I owe Sony Santa Monica an apology... I moaned at them on Twitter after seeing the single player demo that was shown during E3 saying that God of War 3 looked better and that the graphics disappointed me, but looking at these screenshots now, holy fuck, I'm so sorry for doubting you SSM! The single player at E3 must have been a really early build because even the multiplayer looked better, these screens however look fucking stunning!
I have never seen a console game look so beautiful, the lighting and film-like motion blur is light-years ahead of anything else and the modelling and texture detail is just spectacular, not to mention the game will be fully v-sync so no tearing at all, will have a variable framerate which will average 45-50fps (like GoW3) and uses an even more advanced version of MLAA which was introduced to consoles by GoW3 meaning the AA and image quality is going to be better than anything else on consoles.
And we're still 4 months away from release and as everyone knows, the last couple of months/weeks is when the majority of the polishing and optimising is done. Just like God of War 2 did on the PS2 and GoW: Ghost of Sparta did on the PSP, God of War: Ascension will be the best looking game on the PS3 and push it to it's absolute limits. I can't wait to see what Sony Santa Monica can do on the PS4!
