I'm personally way more impressed by Shadow of the Colossus. BOTW does not look bad by any standards but Shadow is in a league of its own in this department.
Which is graphically more impressive? | |||
| Zelda | 49 | 41.88% | |
| Shadow | 68 | 58.12% | |
| Total: | 117 | ||

Graphically, SotC hands down. It has better graphical perks. If it comes down to which one looks prettier, that depends on the eye of the beholder. If we go down the technial road, SotC eviscerates BotW anyday.

If we are talking about graphical superiority then obviously its SoTC. But if talking artstyle then that comes down to personal preference.
Not gonna vote. You can't compare pseudo-realism to stylistic cell-shading. Apples and oranges.

One was made with Wii-U graphics and the other one is a remaster with PS4 graphics.... Apples and oranges..
If it isn't turnbased it isn't worth playing

The entire purpose of this thread was to create a Sony wins thing. It's so transparent that people are calling Zelda almost out of protest for such an inane thread. |
I was about to add that to my comment too. The premise of this thread looks like its trying to bait a console war. I'm sure the OP knows which one is technically superior. If so it really seems childish.
| GOWTLOZ said: Shadow of the Colossus and its not even close. The foliage, lighting, resolution and framerate are all superior and on top of it SOTC has incredible HDR that really pops out. People saying Zelda is more graphically more impressive because of artstyle are deliberately spinning it into a Nintendo wins thing, when graphics are objectively better in SOTC. You can prefer either artstyle but that's not graphics, those are called visuals and graphics is a more technical term. |
Visuals are a part of graphics. Otherwise why is this even a thread? On pure graphics alone, why would a machine with the power of the Switch be compared to the second most powerful console ever?
One runs on hardware 4x quicker, though the fact that theres even a debate shows how good they managed to get Zelda looking running on such handicapped hardware
This is a ridiculous and totally asinine comparison and poll, in my not so humble opinion. Does the OP, or anyone for that matter, honestly feel that the two games are actually that similar from a graphically technological standpoint that there is something to debate here?
If someone just had to bring up these two specific titles, a better question would perhaps be: If anyone has played both, which story/world/gameplay had you more immersed and/or did you enjoy more? ...and explain why.
