not a 360 fanboy, infact i own both consoles (20gb X360 and 60gb PS3), and i decided to do a graphics comparison with all three games on my HDTV. i came to the conclusion that uncharted 2 doesnt look better than KZ2 and Geow2. infact i think KZ2 looks better than Uncharted 2, but uncharted 2 in on par graphically with Geow2. now as far as cinematics and what is going on on the screen at one time, Uncharted 2 murders both games, but as far as texteres, lighting and the other graphical jargons, uncharted 2 does not beat both games. just my honest opinion.

i've played a lot of gears of war in my time, and i have to disagree. gears of war just makes everything look shiny, giving it an edge because that makes things look really nice in videogames. Uncharted goes for a far more realistic look, and graphically i would say that is a much better achievement.

in my honest opinion gears of war is overrated, glitchy and just plain garbage, not a sony fanboy, just being honest. uncharted 2 is the pinnacle of awesomeness in every single aspect so far this generation. in fact im just being honestly, very honest

I have played alot of all these games, and uncharted 2 looks better. KZ2 is actually overated, even though it looks good. Gears 2 is a good looking game, but nothing looks like Uncharted 2.

I have all the consoles as well, and Gears 2 isn't even in the race between those two in terms of graphics.

GeoW2 is the best looking game on the X360, though, in my opinion.

Winner. While I strongly value Uncharted's color pallette (sp?), I believe Killzone 2 is a much more technically proficient game (visually speaking).

This. Killzone 2 just couldn't unveil it's full technical potential because of all the greay and brown colors.

I can't really comment on graphics since the art style is unique...not to mention gorgeous... Aside from that, I thought the game itself was nothing special...just the same old stuff... The story was also similar to the first with a slight few alterations here and there.... Once again, its just another game that was technically praised but didn't really do much new....(except multiplayer of course...which I haven't tried yet) at least it was still as fun to play as the first one....I just didn't think it was worth the money I bought it for.... by that's just my opinion.. also Demon's Souls for GOTY anyone?

This isn't SW. :|

But... yeah, I respectfully disagree with you, and I fail to see how you honestly came to that conclusion. (And in case you're wondering, yes I have played all 3 of these games on the same HDTV)

I can't believe people don't see Uncharted 2 as being the best looking game.

Some parts of it looked so amazing that I felt that it was useless to even compare it to anything else.

I mean the game is a technical acheivment. I just can't believe people are disputing it. lol

The snow in the hair and on his clothes is simply impressive, even the rust on the bars was impressive. Not to mention the amount of work put into facial expressions. I don't see how anyone can think Gears even comes close to being in the same ballpark.

That's just being blind, and i'm not trying to single you out. Anyone who claims Gears 2 isn't even close to Uncharted 2 is crazy, but I do have to give the win to Uncharted. I love Gears (in fact it's the only good Co-op game out there and my wife actually plays with me) but Uncharted 2 blew me away. I think i'm actually ruined for future games, but hey maybe God of War III will surprise me. (I'm really pulling for it.)

i think uncharted 2 looks considerably better then killzone 2. killzone 2 only real show piece were the guns everything else wasn't as spectacular. the motion blur was really well done too. uncharted 2 is just amazing from start to finish and everytime you think they couldn't have done better, they do it just looks better and better as you go along.

jsmoke03
over all i can agree with this. at least as far as mgs4 vs KZ2 and Geow. i have yet to get U2. KZ2 had better effects IMHO and had more stuff going on,on screen but over all i thought MGS4 looked cleaner/crisper.But i would say it was close. On a side note.Jsmoke03 dont you know that boxer in your sig feels like a *** every time he see's that video of him self lol.

Uncharted 2 looks the most appealing by far, the vibrant colours and detail in the locations is astonishing.

Well said. Gears is over-rated. It does not look realistic at all. KZ2 and Uncharted 2 look better than anything on the other system. Games on the other system just look shiny.

UC2 has just come out, you should be spending your time playing and enjoying it.. not complaining about how another game is graphically superior to it.

I just bought Uncharted 2 the other day and I can honestly say that it's NOT graphically better than KZ2, not even close in terms of realism and lighting effects. UC 2 has amazing scenery and colors, something KZ2 doesn't have for a reason, so those can't compare really.

Winner. While I strongly value Uncharted's color pallette (sp?), I believe Killzone 2 is a much more technically proficient game (visually speaking).

Do you know the reason behind Kilzone 2's color scheme? Do you even know what kind of color scheme Killzone 2 has besides "it has gray and brown colors"?

In terms of technical graphics, Uncharted is the best and Gears and Killzone are about even, though Killzone may be a tish better, but not by much. In terms of artistic graphics, I like Killzone the best, Uncharted second, and Gears third, though I do enjoy gears of war, enjoyable fast-paced shooter.

U2>KZ2>(anything 360) kz2 and u2 could flip but 360 has nothing that can touch either one and that is absolute fact ever since kz2 came out. Note U1 was console graphix king when it came out also

I agree that KZ2 is overrated in terms of graphics. Don't get me wrong, it looks good, but it doesn't look as nice as U2. GOW2 is on par with KZ2 I think.

Killzone 2 and Uncharted 2 are both amazing graphical masterpieces. Does it really matter which one is slightly better?

well chief, everyones entitled to their opinion......as wrong as it may be. KZ2 is not better than UC2 imo. UC2 makes better use of everything except motion blur whic it doesnt have. the colors are more vibrant, the environment is much more detailed, the story is better, the characters are more detailed. hell son, drakes pants change to a darker blue when they get wet vs when theyre dry. you dont see effects like that on ANY other console game. gears is a great looking game and i love it to death. im a pretty avid gears fan but it really doesnt come close to either game, at all chief. do a screenshot comparison and youll see a big difference. you can fool yourself into thinking theyre pretty relative on your tv when theyre not

I can honestly say without any doubts that Uncharted 2 is the best look game I have ever played, from both a technical and artistic standpoint.

I have always been "game first, graphics second", but Uncharted 2 made me stop and look around in awe many times. That snow... Dear god that snow...

They all look great to me. I have a small preference to Uncharted simply because of the use of actual colors, but KZ2 and Gears2 are both great looking games.

Fail. Did you beat Uncharted 2 at least? Honestly Gears 2 & Killzone 2 don't hold a candle graphically to Uncharted 2. Dumbest thread i've read on this Forum.

I think they all look great. They all have a different art style which is why it's hard to say that one looks better than the other. I think some stuff looks better on one game and vice versa.

It makes everything else I've played look like crap. I think certain parts of KZ2 are very close to it though.
