BioShock
Gears of War

Good, but unreal tournament 3 killzone 2, and heavenly sword, as well as uncharted are all on the ps3.

UT3 is on 360 too, remember?

UT3 hasnt been shown on 360 hardware yet, it may be on the 360. But you really think it can look like that?

@Leo-j

Why wouldn't it look like that?

@tk

Because gears of war didnt look like that.

How many of these games are already out???

The 360 has 2 games based on the unreal engine, so yeah, I think  the 360 can run UT:3 without problems...

@F-J

Like I said gears of war.

 First of all I agree that this is going to be one of the best looking console games for a while, easily will stay in the top 3 until mid next year.  And I mean that as a good thing, the game simply looks amazing.

But the part I bolded I have to really question, I know we don't get any PC sales numbers but UT3 at its core is a PC game with tons of features and capabilities that will only be on the PC (ie Map Editor & Mods).  The PC version is plain and simple the definitive version.  There isn't really room for interpretation on this one. It would be a major coup for any single console to outsell the PC and it might be close on combined numbers.

PS - I still think Crysis & FC2 are much closer to photorealism, but as far as sharp crisp graphics this game is right on par with those two.  And I think this game has a bit of a slightly less photorealistic art direction.  They seem to want a darker and grittier feel so the result is less photorealism and thats fine, it still looks great.  

Like I said 2 games based on Unreal Engine...

BTW, the 360 development aproach has more in common with a PC than the PS3, so why would be impossible or nearly impossible to make it look that good???
