Less cartoonish. More realistic. Very good.

I want to see how this game will look on it's release date. It already looks slightly better then UC2 IMO.

"As you can see for yourself, the increase in detail is simply stunning."

Cool now post some in game shots please.

I'm confused, Drake looks far older than he should be, maybe its the lighting. I mean I don't mind if they pull an MGS4 and make Drake out of his prime but I was hoping they would save that for number 4 or 5, I want at least one more adventure with young Drake.

so drake gets caught in some time loop does he?  ends up aging thirty years when everyone else ages 10

He looks a lot more realistic and sure he is a human he will age with time.

Impressive improvement. I am sure the real in-game screenshots will be amazing.

The improvements are absolutely stunning!

I don't know what's more scary, the fact that he looks older, or the fact that his cutscene model looks as good as his high quality super computer renders.

humm. Probably it's CGI.....

If not then.... o.O

Those pictures aren't very representative of each game. The OP actually fails in this comparison, sorry. You should have chosen 2 sets of pictures. In game model pictures from each game, and another set of cut-scene (in-game engine) from each game. The OP picture selection is innacurate and not very good to demonstrate anything. Sorry, don't mean to be harsh, but it's the honest truth coming from a fan of the series.
