Does anyone still believe that Uncharted 2 looks better than Gears 3?

GeoW 3 is still sickeningly brown.

It looks decent despite that though, it's probably technically better than UC2 but UC2 is nicer to look at. Then again, SuperStardust HD is nice to look at, so take your pick peeps :P

DarthJohnova

In Act 3 you will be introduced to the colors pink, turqoise, yellow, blue, red, brown, orange...etc

Keep playing the game... lol

Playing Gears of War 3 online is proof enough that it demolishes any PS3 game, graphically and game play.

[QUOTE="monkeysmoke"][QUOTE="MozartXVI"]

it's pretty much a fact by now that gears 3 beats anything on the ps3 in terms of visuals.

kalipekona

No! 360 has not produced any game close 2 God of War 3 yet. Stop exergyrating, Gears 3 doesnt look so amazing and that the reason most reviews including GS did not much emphasize on it graphic compared to Killzone 3 review. And how can Gears 3 without AA look beter than God of War 3 with Mlaa=16xMsaa.

And God of War 3 is not even close to being the best looking PS3 game. It's entirely overrated in terms of graphics. The textures are average, much of the lighting is baked, and the camera is fixed--you are basically playing on a wide ledge most of the game. Not even close to the best looking game on consoles. Killzone 3, Gears 3 and Uncharted 2 are all much more advanced in terms of what they are actually processing.

Oh you clearly have not played God of War 3 by your statement "God of War 3 is not even close to the best looking PS3 game". God of War 3 has some of the best texture on console beyond anything on 360. If you've played the cronos boss fight you'll notice the texture on cronos are beyond anything on 360, the texture is able scale out & zoom in while retaining thesame quality. The use of MLAA on the CELL enabled santamonica to use RSX for mainly high res texture this technique also helped Killzone 3 with it texture. And also funy how you claimed God of War 3 used baked lighting but it actually used full HDR lighting which is even more dynamic than Deffered renderer. Whether you like it or not God of War 3 is the most closest game to CGI. More gaming sight where wowed by God of War 3 compared to Gears of War 3 **FACT** check it out : www.youtube.com/watch?v=7Z-ObYkZicU

Wouldn't it have been better to compare the jungle levels of Gears 3 with Uncharted 2?

Even UDF is better than gears in some aspects.

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

mitu123

Epic fail. You relied on beta graphics and use the photomode from Uncharted 2 to tweak the lighting, it doesn't even look like that when I play and I'm a Rank 41. And Uncharted 2 is still a jaggy mess.:lol:

The only thing you can tweak is pretty much the intensity, color and saturation. It's like stuff you can do with your TV. And is not just for the pic it'll be implemented for the whole match so it's not like it'd take any juice from the machine whatsoever to implement this. And my point wasn't lightning, it's the very detailed textures and AA. And when I tried this just one minute ago I couldn't even see this many jaggies. And remember this is MP and very close up and still it looks this good.

Gears 3 and Killzone 3 both have superior texturing to God of War 3. It's called paralax occlusion mapping. I don't remember GOW3 using HDR... Because even if it did... It's not needed, since the game isn't trying to look like a photo. lol God of War 3 is alsomajoraly a forward renderer like Gears 3.

I still think Killzone 2 and 3 look better and are more advanced technically but it is probably on par with UC2.

All these top contendors on consoles are so close it's not worth debating anymore. All these games like Gears 3, KZ3, Crysis 2, UC2 etc just show that the 360 and PS3 are equal.

Okay... I'll bite. What's ridiculous about C2 being in that statement? Even if you think it's not worthy it doesn't negate that the other games are so close.

Probably because it was what 360 fans were touting as superior not too long ago, so by cow definition, it is awful. That and it's mulitplat. Oh, and it's still the best looking game out there now by my books, not that it matters.

There is not a single more impressive thing technically this gen than 4 player single player co-op on Gears 3. Period. You find yourself saying wow not only for whats happenings but for how it looks. Hats off to Epic, their best game ever.

Did you watch the video in my? The texture used on the titans especialy cronos and gia in God of War 3 surpass anything on 360. And realy God of War 3 used full HDR lighting. Go checkout "The making of God of War 3" on Digital foudry to find out more about it superior texture and lighting.

I disagree, Gears of war 3 is a lot more consistant with its visual fedelity. Uncharted 2 simply looks astonding in its campaign due to a large amount of scripted and linear instances. Though, I wouldn't consider it a flaw if it retained such graphics in MP.

All the console graphics king contenders ARE scripted and linear. The small environments being a necessity if you want to concentrate on graphics.

First of all... Youtube compression is not a good indicator. Second I own God of War 3. Check out the texture detail on Mercy in Gears 3 campaign and then compare it to Cronos' and Gai'sentire face and body. You're really selling the texture detail of Gears 3 short.
