Not sure how these UC shots still look so damn good no matter how hard people try to pick shitty shots. The focal blur and depth of field look so good in that game that it's scary for a console game.

I am not trying to use shitty shots, all the screenshots are amazing. Just look at the environments and the details on the wall (in the second screen), how can it be a shitty shot?

In the second screen I tried to show the details and in the third screen I tried to show Drake's face.

And seriously, stop being so defensive, it's annoying, I am not trying to make Uncharted look worse. I used those screenshots of UC1 because I really love the details and the environments, also, the colors are amazing, off-screen or not I think those screens are really fantastic for a console. You are paranoid.

Sorry but you've brought this on yourself...

There are thousands of better shots from UC1 or for that matter UC2, you choose to take two offscreen shots from UC1 while the topic is UC2 vs AW and against these 2 UC1 shots you pit the best AW "bulletshots". Defensive? Reasonable

There arent any bullshots in those AW pics.....devs confirmed that.

Its funny that you think in-game shots are bullshots , really shows just how amazed you are at them.

That's where our oppinions differs. Devs stated, that all these shots were taken in special mode, which doesn't represent the actual game. They are using filters, stronger aa and lens distortion.

I'm not amazed by AW. Lighting effects are impressive, but that's about it for me.



MY HYPE LIST: 1) Gran Turismo 5; 2) Civilization V; 3) Starcraft II; 4) The Last Guardian; 5) Metal Gear Solid: Rising

I looked at Alan Wake walkthrough and the graphics are good but not impressive in comparision to UC2

Clearly Alan Wake does look better. The lighting is miles ahead of any game out there. And we still haven't seen much of the daytime gameplay which will surly look very very impressive.

Can't wait to get my hands on AW.

I've only played a bit of Uncharted 2, and only seen a couple of vidoes and screenshots of Alan Wake, but from what I've seen I enjoy the setting and lighting better in Alan Wake.

I have a slight problem with the texturing in Uncharted, textures look really bad when you get up close, and quite cluttered when viewed from afar, and they are way to saturated for my taste. This takes away all of the truly breathtaking quality of the graphics. I'm also bothered by the character design. The style they went for is not very realistic, and the setting of the game reminds me so much of a hollywood movie that the un-realism stings my eyes a bit.

The Alan Wake movies and screenshots gives off an atmosphere closer to Film Noir and thrillers than an action movie, and the lighting and texturing fits very well with that. There are also some very, very beautiful screenshots out there. There's something wrong about the graphics though that I haven't yet been able to put my finger on though. Maybe I'll know more when I play it.

For now, I enjoy Alan Wake a bit more.

The Devs stated that those Alan wake screens are bullshots, huh? Give me the link.

If you have a better screenshot, stop being so defensive and give me a better screen, so we can continue the comparison because if you just complain, you won't contribute with the thread. No matter what you think, I gave my point and I explained why I think that those screens are fantastic for a console. Seriously, geeez...

It's really hard to discuss with some people who thinks that everyone is against the PS3 or Uncharted 2.

It's not gonna look better than U:DF, just get over it.  And this doesn't mean I say it can't be a great game.

N64 is the ONLY console of the fifth generation!!!

UC 2 is looking better in my eyes though.

Interesting shots that u picked... very poor uncharted 2 pictures to compare with. I honestly don't think the 360 will be able to surpass Uncharted 2's graphics, ever... And, then we have God of War 3, which is suposed to blow Uncharted 2 away with pure eyecandy.
