Me and my friend I work with was having this discussion Sunday (as it was Easter and no one wants to come in a game store on Easter) I had just recently picked up my first Metal Gear game which was Metal Gear Solid Twin Snakes, and I was commenting on how well it looks to me even after 3 years and much better looking games have come out (like RE4 for GC and then the Next Gen games) and he commented on MGS3 and I started talking about how the videos I've seen didn't look at pretty and fluid as MGSTS does on my TV, he has both games and actually agreed with me but in some cases they're an even fight, then I wanted to make this topic with pictures to compare them, but I can't seem to find pics that really do either justice, and on top of that there's hardly any pictures to compare both of them fairly, as in terms of whats going on in the game.

 If anyone has a good tip for capturing high quality snapshots of the game, and or a cheap way to connect my systems up to my PC so I can make some pics please tell me, or if you have good quality pictures to compare the games please post them, I ask you to keep it in the limits of fair judging IE keep similar action on the screen, don't flame one console over the other and turn it into a system fanboy debate, the whole comparision is what was done on the GC game to make it look good and what was done on the PS2 game to make it look good.

 Heres the best pics I could find =\

GC: MGSTS:

PS2: MGS3

You can tell both are ingame cut scenes, the characters are up closer in the GC pic so you can see the flaws in the textures more then the PS2 characters but you can tell by looking at the guns/ missles on the left of the PS2 picture the polygon count and textures aren't that hot but the textures are similar, the GC game seems to have more polygon work going on, but we know polygons aren't the only thing that make a game look good, right now I'd say MGS3 wins in textures and character detail, while MGS:TS wins in polygons and lighting (lighting though not represented well in the picture I noticed a lot in playing the game while I've seen video of MGS3 and it was not done as well)

Discuss!
