So what you're saying is, the more colorful/less realistic something is, the more artistic it is? I guess someone needs to go back in time and tell Leonardo Davinci that the Mona Lisa has a worse artstyle than Phineas and Ferb.

You summarized my discussion with Padib in a different way... but you won't win on it... impossible to make them accept that they just see something Nintendo and justify that cartoony is more artistic and that defines the argument.

Reading the posts made me realize one thing: if a game is prettier than the other, it really doesn't matter which have better tech. After all, the tech is there to realize the vision of the creators and make the game more beautiful.

So, even if Uncharted 4 has better tech (of course it has), Zelda U will impress more people overall because of it's friendly-and-creative artstyle. Realistic games also tend to get old faster. Just compare WW to TP and see which one looks more outdated.

That said, Zelda U has some pretty amazing technical feats (animations, foliage, scope, etc.), and I bet it'll look even better when it launches (it's a trend with nintendo games).

Yes sure... surrealism is such a pleasant look... whenever someone play a surrealism game and say it looks fantastic please post it for everyone.

The main problem is "cartoony is art and better no matter what", not that Zelda or Mario look good (because they look).

Tbh, I probably would have brought them up if the guy I was quoting had written something less childish than basically "artstyle1>artstyle2". Incidentally I do like Van Gogh's style more than DaVinci's and pretty much any other painter's. Picasso's style is interesting, but too surreal for my tastes.

Anyway, I've never really cared much about graphics or artstyle in games. Loads of PS1/N64 games still look fine to me and there's never been a game that made me go "OMFG LOOKIT DAT AMAZING GRAPHICS". All I care about is a good framerate, good camera and an artstyle that isn't painful to look at (like Bubsy 3d's) and fits the theme that the game is going for. From the looks of things, both UC4 and Zelda have all of those things, so they both look good to me.

Pfft? Mona Lisa isn't realistic. Have you never studied the dimensional qualities of the background he used to make it pop?

The Order: 1886 looks better than either of them.

Technically: Uncharted will clearly win
Aesthetically: For me; Zelda

Boring answer.

Interesting answer:
Benchmarks: Zelda (thinking at least 720p 30fps LOCKED, I think Uncharted will be 720p 30fps unlocked)

zelda. im willing to bet it will have a better frame rate as well. lol

Uncharted will probably be 1080p30fps.
