It looks great but I'm disappointed by the framerate in comparison to GoW3.

Really?  We have seen barely five minutes of singleplayer footage.  That's hardly enough to judge the game.  

That sequence in the demo doesn't really look all that intensive now does it? Compared to the amount of action going on in these videos.

I'll reserve judgment until the game goes gold and I have a copy in my hand.

Again, you're looking at an E3 build.

Can't wait for this game. Need another GOW fix after beating GOW3. I do find it funny how the PS3 is competing with itself for best graphics on a console. And if the PS4 rumors are correct, then next gen will be no different. Well, except a smaller price at launch.

This.  Your comparing a finished game to an early build and five minutes of gameplay.

Because it can compete with the best, but, according to reviews, it wasn't quite the best. Uncharted 3 seems to have retained that. Still in the eye of the beholder, though.

don't care about reviewers, many said crysis 2 was the best looking console game on 360,  i only trust in DF, they do a indepth analysis.

Crysis 2 was sooooo overrated

Some said Crysis 2 was the best on consoles, not many. That went to Killzone 3. However, I agree regarding Digital Foundry, which is why Halo 4 deserves more credit than you think.

i think halo 4 amazing, i just think GOWA is a bit more impressive.

Wait till 343 studios releases the static camera patch for Halo 4... Oh man will those graphics be sweet when all you get is one viewpoint.

You do realize that that wouldn't improve graphics that much, right?  The environments still have to be loaded in just like any other games.  It's not constantly dropping and reloading the environments you can't see outside of the camera's view.  That would lead to God awful load times.  The reason they keep the camera fixed is because that's how they did it from the start, even though they could have done a free camera system on the PS2, as well.  Instead, they prefered to use the right analog stick for dodging.
