From what I've seen of Gears 3... Foliage, lighting, shadows, explosions,shaders, high resolution alpha effects, it takes it up a notch.

Even more shocking is that the player models are higher poly now! Just look at Cole!

But this is system wars... Uncharted 3 matches it IMO. What's your opinion?

Gears is the best looking game on consoles now. Uncharted 2 held it for 2 years, quite impressive. Gears 3 is a looker let me tell you. I haven't played it, I'm not a fan of the games, and I hate to admit that its a better game in any way than Uncharted 2, but it looks better than Uncharted 2.

I'm more of a Forza fan... But I've been keeping that fanboyish side of myself out of the official Forza 4 topic. Gears 3 looking spectacular is more of a win for Unreal Engine 3 games in general... We might start having all multiplats at this quality.

I wouldn't know from the tech side, but Uncharted 2 is certainly nicer to look at.

Ask after 2 months when this GeoW 3 hype here on SW wears off and people start to have clear minds again (just the same thing that happened to Crysis 2).

Or you can just pop in Uncharted 2 ina PS3 and compare. From what I've seen after playing Gears 3 campaign for a good 2 hours... Only the UC3 beta looks comparable now.

Killzone 3 > God of War 3 > Gears of War 3 > Uncharted 2 > Killzone 2 > Crysis 2 > Uncharted 3 IMO.

I hope the footage we've seen (screenshots, gameplay vids etc) are jokes.

I'm not going to say better, but they're in the same league. I'm still partial to Crysis 2, but whatever. I'm tired of everybody fighting over which is best. To me, there is no one game that stands head and shoulders over the others anymore.

From what I have seen Gears 3 looks better than Uncharted 3; waiting for it to come out to make final judgement. Gears of War 3 is def better looking then Uncharted 2, it would be sad for MS if it was not.

Didn't you say in another thread that Gears 2 looks better than Uncharted 2?? Anyway yeah Uncharted 2 still looks alot better. AA, Performance, Animations and textures look better. And lightning, shadows and foliage are at least on par.

Even UDF is better than gears in some aspects.

The last pic is MP btw which is vastly inferior to the SP graphics.

It's amazing how much the tech has improved in 2011. From that pic Uncharted 2 has inferior shadowing. Nice photomode pic from the MPBTW.

Why is this still even being discussed? Its pretty obvious that 2009's Uncharted 2: Among Thieves is the better looking game of the two. It also performs better too with regard to frame rate and tearing. Don't get me wrong, Gears 3 looks very nice, but its just a shame its wrapped around some utterly uninspired gameplay. I think ND will probably deliver on both looks AND gameplay.

a score is given to all factors of the game not only grafix and also they are based on the release date expectations.maybe if UC2 was released in 2011 it would't get all those high score.some people belive that gears2 loooks better than crysis 2.at the end it's a personal matter.

UC2 does not have 3d. UC2 AA is pretty much useless, it really is. Its deferred rendering game and MSAA is more like hack in Gears 1 and 2 than proper 2xMSAA. Anyway, Gears 3 can dip to 28-26fps for a second, but then again it only dips when there are alot of smoke and other alpha effects on screen that are actually full res, compared to UC2s and other games. I would take 2fps dip from time to time to see such good smoke effects any day of the week...

We don't actually know yet but Gears 3 does look amazing for a console game.

It needs a PC version to compete with many PC titles at all however, Gears 1 (PC) for example.

Rather hard to discredit 1080p when you switch directly between it and half the resolution.

tearing isn't a performance issue, itsa sync issue, and there are definitly more effects in gears, have you ever seen explosions in UC2, they are laughable

Nah, it looks like that. I have no idea why your rank has anything to do with it, but I'm a higher rank than you so obviously I am the correct one. Then again I play on Full HD plasma screen with max PS3 display settings, don't know about anybody else.

Being a Rank 41 takes days and is proof that I know what the map looks like. Find me a screen of you controlling your character with that lighting that's so obviously a tweak it's not even funny. And I play on a 1080p monitor as well.
