Forums - Gaming - Uncharted 2 the Graphics King

Munkeh111 on 29 July 2009

When you look at Uncharted 2, you have to watch it in action. In the E3 gameplay footage, you just see all the effects going on while all the character models are amazing, stuff is shaking, the realistic wind effects on all the plants with the helicopter overhead. Seriously, Uncharted 2 looks amazing, and I think we are in a much better position to judge Uncharted 2 given that many of us have already played it, and even in the online beta, it probably looks better than the currently best looking game Killzone 2

XxXProphecyXxX, so now you're comparing CGI from Uncharted 2 to gameplay from Alan Wake? classy. so can i post Halo 3 and Halo Wars CGI cause they put Uncharted 2 gameplay screens to shame which means that Halo 3 and Halo Wars look better than Uncharted 2, right?
the only Uncharted 2 gameplay screen that has been posted so far was the first screen in this thread - it's not my fault that Uncharted 2 looks worse than most games mentioned like Lost Planet 2, Splinter Cell, Forza 3, Alan Wake etc.

So then, why did Uncharted 2 win all the graphics awards at E3 when those games you listed as looking better were present and playable at the show, too?

Just FYI, you might wanna edit Lost Planet 2 out. It's no longer 360 exclusive.

so? it still looks awesome. from technical standpoint Lost Planet owns everything - the fact that there's so much going on you don't even see at first time(grass that react in real time with everything from explosions, movement to wind) makes it just great.

@ Phrophecy, those are CGI - you can clearly see that there is many effects that aren't in the game add to that close ups special more movie-like angles etc. only first one is actual gameplay rest is either cgi or tweaked screens.

Oh yeah, and I thought Lost Planet 2 was probably the best looking game ever

There's this game that's been out quite a while that does this better than Lost Planet, and it's just a miniature game. Hmm...what was the name of it?

Which scenes are you claiming are CGI from Uncharted, ND don't really do CGI to my knowledge, all the pictures that I have seen of Uncharted can be viewed in a video of gameplay

Well there we go......I think this argument is pretty much over notice how I'm getting the CGI argument now where those pics came from the gameplay they showed on the events.

Beautiful game! I'd say it has the best character models ever in a console game, but in everything else KZ2 still wins.

As for Alan Wake, people can't be serious about it being 'graphical king.' All's we've seen is an average character model (Alan) going through the pitch black dark with a torch and shotgun. No doubt it will be beautiful, but you can't compare it to Uncharted 2 at the minute.

By the way, GT5 and F3 are really the best looking games, but they don;t count
