Its nothing major but the game looks like CRAP. I read everywhere that its so beautiful and all my friends told me the same. It honestly looks like a very late PS2 game, which is weird because its the newest game I have bought and all my older games (Killzone 2, Bioshocks, Orange Box) all look amazing.

I have a 42 Sony Bravia and its all hooked up with an HDMI, do you think it might be the game itself?

Thanks!

I've seen topics about this with other games, and what might be happening is that the game is designed to run at 720 and your settings are for 1080? Check your resolution settings for the game and make sure you're using the right output on the PS3...

Maybe you're nagging about the lack of Anti-Aliasing? Yes, in that case Bioshock, Killzone2, Half life 2 and everything else in the OB surpass BFBC2 .

I honestly don't think the graphics are that good, I thought the first Bad Company had better graphics.

I'd disagree, the filter in BFBC1 made the game look more graphically impressive.

I don't have the game, but I remember during the Beta that it had terrible AA. That's probably why you think the graphics are low.

First of all, there is NO way that Bioshock has better graphics. Bioshock has some of the worst graphics this gen (for big games). That said, even though this is one of my favorite games I must say the visuals are not that good on todays standard. But they are not atrocious or anything. I hope BF3 has better graphics (it should, as its using the Frostbite 3 engine I believe, rather than 2.5), but its not too big a deal to me.

P.S. - I have it on PC so mine probably looks a lot better too :P.

This. Does not happen to me because I believe my TV auto sets itself :/.

It is the PS3 outputting to the TV, so I doubt it "Sets itself" - your TV would have to tell your PS3 to run at the approved setting ... and that - Does NOT happen.

Go bash another topic about a game you haven't even played

Oh my heart, she is hurt.

I'm playing the PC version and it looks great, but the 360 version is no modern day miracle. Don't expect top-notch graphics because BFBC2 is not. Even the PC version isn't that great maxed out at 1920x1200 so don't be surprised or expect anything amazing. So don't feel bad. This game is about the multiplayer, period.

Second time today you've nearly made me laugh a soft drink through my nose, Melpoe! NOT FAIR. The bubbles make me sneezey!!!

:lol:

And cBot, I'm pretty sure Melpoe has played BFBC2... We have been talking about our mutual lovefest for FPS, and the lamentation that they are getting easier, etc, and beyond that, I respect Mel's opinions as they are generally well-thought out and factually sound. I'm not attacking you or anything, I'm jus' SAYIN', is all...
