Maybe for the genre, I do think that a racer will take that crown though, just so much simpler to render amazing visuals in racing games. Also, one has to decide for oneself what "best looking" actually means.
In my opinion, Bastion and Eador: Masters of the Broken World are among the best looking games of this generation, mostly due to art direction and style.
Same goes for Dishonored.
That said though, The Last of Us certainly looks amazing.
