Hello.

With all due respect, do you really think it's fair to take pictures, choose an object at your own discretion and compare?

Check out the first gameplay of Killzone Shadowfall, where the city becomes a battlefield. Compare it to Metroid, and consider the +10 year gap between the games.

Killzone looks better, despite being 10 years older. Metroid looks dated.

Edit.: it's still one of the best looking Nintendo games in the Last 10 years. So yeah, they raised the bar for Nintendo visuals.

Yes if your argument is that Killzone has better textures and materials I think comparing textures and materials for similar assets by their objective qualities (like resolution and detail) is how you do determine that.

Just going off vibes is not how we do these comparisons because vibes are not objective. Things like art-style, animation quality, and scripting style affect people's "vibes."

If Killzone indeed has better textures, you can find a texture (for a similar asset) that has higher detail/resolution to make that argument. 

If it is a mixed comparison (some assets have worse texture quality), then no the game doesn't look "way better" in anything but a subjective stance.

I didn't cherry pick that example either. 

Your original statement was that Killzone has better textures, materials, and particle effects. This is a falsifiable statement that can be supported (or falsified) with evidence. 

Look, I don't believe that arbitrarily chosen "parts" of images of different sizes and resolutions are suitable for comparison.

I'm not one of the experts at Digital Foudry, but when I watch Prime 4 and compare it to Killzone Shadowfall, I conclude that Killzone is more beautiful and graphically impressive.

To me, a game that is 10+ years old is visually more impressive than Prime 4. That's why I say that the visuals of this game look dated and not impressive.

Just look at this:

If you Tell me "Prime 4 looks better" i realy don't know what to say. Killzone Just have better visuals, no doubt.Denying this is like saying the earth is flat or that Trump is doing a good job as president.
