In my humble, yet well developed opinion. I BELIEVE that uncharted's graphics are over rated. I am not stating this as fact, but I personally don't thinks it's all that impressive. I think that PS3 owners haven't really gotten a taste of the 360's graphics prowess, because I actually think the forest leves of Halo 3 look as good as Uncharted :P, so let's have a look.

I'm going to pick what I think show cases the graphics of a few games and let you compare them ok?

This is Halo 3 Multiplayer, which obviously has worse graphics than the Single Player. However I bet cows never took the time to look at Halo 3 before bashing it.

Just cause Gear's isn't as bright and colorful and flowery as Uncharted, doesn't mean it doesn't look better.

All in all, Uncharted does have a few areas that ARE amazing, but graphics king it is not. Now, when ps3 owners really get to see the later levels of Bioshock in Motion, they will be like damn.

Do you own Uncharted? Or played it, at least? No offense, but if you haven't I can't really take this thread seriously.

I think it is the console graphics king, although Bioshock is close behind.

Based on my personal experiences with both consoles the only game which comes close to Uncharted is Gears of War and in my opinion they are tied.

I have said many times.

When all is taken into consideration, there isn't a finer more vibrant visually appealing came then Halo 3 on any console. :D

I've played all of those games above, and I still think Uncharted looks better than them all. Gears is very close though, probably actually "even" with Uncharted, they're just so artistically different from eachother it's hard to compare.

Anyway, I would never compare Halo 3 to Uncharted. So you my friend - ARE WRONG!!!

...oh wait, you stated it as an opinion. :lol: jk

I don't own it, and I'll be honest I've played it for no more than an hour so there ya go. Do you own Gears? Do you own Halo? I believe that if it was console KING I would notice how amazing it was with an hour of gameplay, unless it's only King in the 15 minute span later that I haven't played. SO you better take it serious, because I think it's over hyped. You don't have to agree, but see it as graphics and not anything but. use YOUR eyes, not system wars.

Graphics King is the worst title to have, "someone" else is bound to chop your head off sooner or later. The graphics argument is futile.

I do indeed own Gears, Halo and Bioshock and I still think Uncharted beats them. I think you can only make a fair judgment when you have played the full game not just the first hour.

Even you said "when ps3 owners really get to see the later levels of Bioshock". Perhaps you should do that with Uncharted.

The gun model in that shot is a joke. I never understood why people post that pic for "ownage" when the gun model looks laughably bad. As far as Uncharted goes, I do think it gets a bit too much credit for its graphics. Of course my opinion is based on screenshots and not first hand experience, but next to Gears and GRAW2, it doesn't look that special.

Hey and that's fine too. If you see it as better, it's better. I just hate how SW turned into Hivemind as soon as one GS employee (who was probably paid to say it) said that Uncharted MAY be the best graphics. Then everyone was like... uhhh ok

i see what you did to the second screen there you took a screen shot then blown it up to look more jaggy and less pixals.

i beat the game 6 times have unlock everything from donut drake to flip screens ect. and that sceen was never that close up. hpw about you find a screen shot of the suberian part or the part with the sun set in the back ground. i wish i can just cut and past screen shots so i can prove you wrong and show you how the second screen is wrong.

Uncharted is the current console graphics kings but next year a new one will be crowned. Gears 2 will not do it in my opinion it'll be more polished with lighting and alittle more colorful but not leaps and bounds ahead. Halo 3 just no and Bioshock isn't quite there.

It was just a question and you gave a good answer. I didn't understand what you meant by it, now that it is clear I must say that I agree with you 100% on this issue. I think the same thing goes for review scores, people shouldn't use review scores to justify the quality of THEIR experience.

lol That second Uncharted pic is of terrible quality and the first one is not so good either. If you simply look at those pics, of course Uncharted doesn't seem to be graphics king. Those shots do no justice to Uncharted. The game looks fantastic in motion, with vibrant colours and great textures.

Screens FTL.

Anyone that owns both Uncharted and Halo 3 as well as an HDTV knows that Uncharted takes the cake. Halo 3 looks great and has excellent textures, but come one guys :?.

Color does not make a game look better really. It makes it look prettier. Gears is still the graphics king on 360. Then Bioshock.

VulcanMage119

Are you saying you think Resistance: Fall of Man looks better than Uncharted? I have both games and I find that hilarious. :lol: You must really hate Uncharted.

Especially if you think Halo 3 looks better. :| Shiny armor =\= better looking game. Uncharted has amazing animation, lighting, and shadows. Halo 3 has pretty decent lighting and shadowing, but the animation is par.

Thanks for backing me up, I'm in my Algorithms Class right now (senior Neumont University WOOT!) and I can't defend against all this heat!
