It looks really nice, but the gameplay footage of infamous second son/killzone shadowfall blows it away. Infamous is also open world too. The last of us is really nice looking though. It serves as a great a swan song for the ps3 undoubtedly.

I don't want to say the game looks bad because it looks quite good in motion but these shots clearly show we need a next gen. I think now it is obvious that many shots released before were clearly bullshots and the game can't keep the standard they wanted to achieve. Nothing wrong with it but some shots really look disgusting.
