Sorry, but if it takes EAD 5 years to make this:

And Naughty Dog 2 years to make this:

Then EAD are ridiculously inefficient.

So you're saying that EAD was making just SS graphics for 5 years!? In that case we SS development would take 10 years. :)

Like I already wrote to you, completely new, unique, great and beautiful art style and graphics for every new game is just one of reasons why 3D Zelda and Uncharted are not on same level of development. In case of SS I am pretty sure that good part of development time went on integration of Motion Controls in game, or in other words, on new experience and mechanics.

Zelda's art styles are not so demanding that they justify it taking over twice as long to make as a game with high end (for the time) realistic graphics, complex AI/animations/physics, online multiplayer, etc.

The art style is not an excuse; Killzone Shadowfall has a different art style to Killzone 3, but they were released just two years apart.
