COD doesn't have great graphics. It's great acheivement is that it looks pretty good while at 60FPS. I wouldn't say great graphics though.

Both games have atrocious lighting. COD4 is too dark, MW2 went with a cartooney lighting, very saturated and bright.

objective or personal taste? as example i know killzone 2 is a good game but i hate it^^ but i think it is really hard to find really bad games with great graphics, developers who spend millions to reach this goal usually don't forget to think at least a little bit about the gameplay or so.

ok far cry 2. i think graphics were good when it released except player models but...yeah...i have aboslutely n clue how it could get these good reviews on average. what does it have? meta of 84 or so? €dit: ok meta of 85 lol

batman arkham asylum. yeah i said it! the game was waaaaaaayyy over rated!! it looked great but it played like crap

Minecraft

I can only speak for myself, but I beat all 3 God of War games for no other reason than that I had already payed for them.

Actually, almost every game here is not that bad . I think that horrible games are normally unpolished products, so they are a complete disaster (bad gameplay, horrible history and terrible graphics). Games with nice visuals are usually more polished and have, at least, some good things.

The really terrible ones here, don't have good visuals.

its my opinion pezus, you might think otherwise but i dont like those games at all, and i played all of them except for GoW 3 and GOW 3

Rage
Final Fantasy 13
Far Cry 2
Fallout 3
Fall Out: New Vegas
Deus Ex: Human Revolution
Oblivion
Modern Warfare 2
Modern Warfare 3
Infamous
Borderlands

I'm sure there are some others I'm not thinking of right now.
