MGS4. Just like the art style more. Don't care which one is more technical or whatever. Whatever one looks more appealing is the better looking one for me.

Oh for God's sake

That isn't what a graphics comparison is about

Going by that metric you would think that The World Ends With You looks better than either of them

Since I have not played GoW II, and just by going by the cutscenes. I will have to say MGS4. It just looked beautiful on my HDtv

No, MGS4 looks better than TWEWY. I don't consider the character art when they're talking as graphics. I'm only talking about the in game models. And to me the in game models look better for MGS4.

You are talking about the art style. You can't be talking about the art style and yet not talking about the art style. In your first post you list the art style as the sole reason, and even acknowledge that MGS4 may be technically inferior.

Fanboyism? MGS4 is the better looking game. No fanboyism involved (yes, I've played both games).

I highly doubt that.

 

 

OT: Gears 2 clearly in a technical standpoint, but Metal Gear Solid 4 is still beautiful though, and I ditto what stewroids said

gears 2 but mgs4 is not far behind



Bet reminder: I bet with Tboned51 that Splatoon won't reach the 1 million shipped mark by the end of 2015. I win if he loses and I lose if I lost.

I've been able to play both and I'm going with MGS4.  So good, it doesn't need CG.

How do u know he hasn't? o_O; And personally, I dont think there is a big difference between both... and clearly MGS4 has the character model edge, not only a GoW2, but many games, including Killzone 2.

No you haven't. I also doubt that you've played a Metroid game for more than an hour.

Yes, I've played it. In fact I played it on a 1080p TV, while I only played MGS4 on a 720p. MGS4 has better lightning, everything casts real-time shadows (kind of like Crysis), and as said before MGS4's character models are better than GoW2's. Gears has better textures, but MGS4 wasn't overly impressive in that department anyway.
