Am I the only one who sees that God of War 3 has average graphics?

nope your not, the graphics are a step above god of war 2 but not by that much and not to the extent people are distoling them.

will the game be good? who knows i thought god of war 1 and 2 were nothing but button mashing slasher games but the vistas were great in them which was their one redeeming quality for me the vast vistas.

Having finally played the demo off the District 9 Blu-Ray, it's definitely one of the best looking console games this generation. To think that the full game is going to be in 1080P is almost frightening. I was like you OP, who thought the screenshots and videos didn't look that good. This is definitely ones of those cases where you have to play it.KHAndAnime

I'm sorry dude, but... :|.

Nope. Many have expressed their disappointment with GoW3's visuals. I can understand why after playing a title like Uncharted 2.

Not the best Graphics ever but above average by far.

Good graphics aside, this game is going to be amazing

I agree.

[QUOTE="Hathesulacon"]

No gameplay videos or screenshots suggest otherwise. The A lot of articles I read are saying this games graphics are PHENOMENAL and BREATHTAKING but it really isnt all that good. It like, doesn't even look THAT next gen. I mean its graphics are FINE. But, since the gameplay is essentially exactly the same as before with kind of better graphics and just a different barbaric story, why should I buy this. Thoughts? (Not a joke, the graphics dont look good) IMO

jalexbrown

I think it looks great but not amazing, haven't played the Demo yet and it's still not suppose to release till later this year so I'm sure it'll be a pretty game when it's all said and done.

you get the picture...

TC you're not the only one who thinks GOW3 has average graphics, there are many PS3 haters or else those who prefare other systems which will agree with you.. Considering GOW3 is a Higly anticipated PS3 exclusive its normal that many will try to find any excuse possible to somehow criticise the game..

But deep down everyone knows the game has great visuals and will probably also deliver an intense action-packed story & solid gameplay.. But we still need to wait till March when this game finally gets released..

For me its a 1st day Buy and cant wait to see Kratos getting unleashed for his final battle:) (hopefully wont be the last one)

The only way someone is a fanboy, if they call others out for being fanboys or say really stupid stuff to annoy people.... Of course people are going to have preferences but some people take it way too far.

This thread is worthless as not one person posting in it has seen a current build of GOWIII. The demo is just that and is from an older build. However, those who have seen the current build are blown away by it. N'gai Croal being one that was totally speechless which is uncharacteristic of him. I think people need to pass judgement on the graphics once they see current stuff, or when the game releases.

Um thats because you claimed they were far beyond anything on consles and they simply are not. Thats as bad as the kid who said RE5 on pc looked better then aything on consoles , where it basiclaly looks marginally better then its 360 counterpart.

[QUOTE="AAllxxjjnn"] Yeh, you do, you go out of your way to make a claims on how PS3 games do things better than those PC games. AAllxxjjnn

Lol but its average textures, lvl design and character models dont count heh?As far as graphics go yes that argument is always escalatd by the hermits . Whenever someone talks about how great a game looks ( evnen if there saying its not the best looking game out) you get a flood of Crysis pics and how bad all consoles game look yet they totally ignore the fact that Crysis decimates anything on pc.

Another reason why people talk about visuals is although they are not everything usually games with great visuals happen to be great games.

The graphics are above average, they aren't on the same level as uncharted 2, but they are good. And of course the gameplay is going to look the same, you don't make a sequel to a game like god of war as a stealth game or racing game do you? I will buy is BECAUSE it has the same gameplay, the same gameplay that made GoW 1 and 2 AAA titles.

Anyway I see some art assets were also used in both games.

maybe you should play the GOW3 demo and then get back to this thread TC. Tis the best looking console game to date I have seen in a demo. If they do happen to polish the game up....better look out, UC2 will be ajoke of the past. Any one else smell a new console graphics king?

[QUOTE="TheSterls"]

[QUOTE="AAllxxjjnn"] It is simple. Arma II's scale makes it graphically beyond anything on consoles. It's not hard to grasp this concept. Also all this forum talks about is graphics, so what should i be bringing up in graphical threads? Super Mario Galaxy?AAllxxjjnn

Its textures are not far beyond anything on consoles by any means and its levle design is open and bland lots of wide open fields and a few trees , it gets murdered by Crysis in every conceviable way. Hell even the cryengine 3 demo shown on conosles blows it away in pretty much every area. Now compare the Gun Models, lighting effects, animations and charcter models to KZ2 and how is it far beyond anything on consoles? All it has on them is scale at the expense of bland level design.

What's wrong with the textures and level design? The only thing that isn't that great are the character models and animations. Everything else looks better than what you can find on consoles, while also being in an open world with more than 100 miles of land to freely explore.AAllxxjjnn
