Far Cry 3 - 7 (4)

Art design(aesthetics) isn't the same as graphics...

This year maybe on consoles. But overall, Far Cry 3 PC puts Halo 4 to shame. In the past few years, Halo 4 wouldn't even be mentioned even when just talking about console games. Halo 4 has a lot of horrible textures and details are soft and dull. Not impressed, but then again, they never have been that good graphically over there.

Agree with you but then again it is because the game is more open than other linear games. Can't do much about that. As long as people keep their head up and dont analyze the areas, it'll look fine xD

Jugaccino gave it to Far Cry 3 as well.

So in other words, by crossing a huge amount as well as having more readers choices, yet nearly if not the same amount of critics -> Its still close as fuck

Thats my point. In the end it can go either way but that doesnt matter, its the fact that over the past 4 years, a console exclusive has won rather easily as well. This is the first year where we see some competition which is funny in of itself considering Far Cry 3 isnt exactly praised in the same context as Crysis. Makes you really think ^^.

Well , it deserves it it looks awesome!

:P

EDIT: Oh nevermind, video said "Best Shooter" as well, realised they gave it to Blops 2 over Halo 4 and others.

What does any of that have to do with graphics?

So sorry like I said, I thought you posted best shooter too, the video said so.

Does Halo 4 really look better than Uncharted 3? I haven't played Halo so...

Please don't bother answering if you haven't played both, I want some unbiased opinions.

Still, it's impossible that Halo 4 looks better than some PC games this year.
