I still think it is far too bloomy and brown. The technical proficiency is there, it is just covered by over-used filters and effects.

[QUOTE="MotoRacer81"]that's because you're a fanboy. I think it's ok. I do own the game by the way. It's no where near MGS4.BioShockOwnz

Sure you do...



He is right, MGS4 does look better.

Yes the game looks great and really showed what this gen was capable of, and now MGS4 has even surpassed it.wooooode

I disagree, it hasn't even surpassed Uncharted either. Textures are bad, and I can't find anything that looks amazing. I didn't get that huge shock and awe factor, other than in a few cut scenes, but that was from the cinematics.

[QUOTE="ReturnOfShinobi"]Because Uncharted looks better, everything on 360 is ugly and its outdated, oh and also, the 360 has hit its peak:roll:bungie93

LOL The xbox 360 is more powerful than the PS3. If anything the PS3 has reached its peak.

I finally got my gaming PC back. My son loves gears of war and i was interested to see just how it looks at 1920x1080 (1080p) on my 40" HDTV. Looked fantastic. Not only is it one of the best looking console games but also is still a great looking game on PC.

Seriously gears graphics are overhyped, if you take a slightly closer look at the character models you would see that they're actually not that great. They only look good from a distance. Plus the game has little physics and small environments...munu9

I agree 100%

Gears doesn't strike me as a game that is intended to be "artsy fartsy."

I know it looks so good, I just got done playing about an hour ago :).

Epic made the UE3 and knows all of the nooks and crannies of it, Gears 1 was ahead of its time. Still only 1 or two games look as good or better.

Which is why it looks great. It seems that the game with the smallest enviroments tend to have the better graphics. Well, games for consoles anyway.

That statement is very on point, Uncharted had small environments and looked absolutely mesmerizing. Gears of War in my eyes is the 4th best looking game on consoles

Metal Gear Solid 4

Uncharted

Bioshock

Gears of War

Gears doesn't strike me as a game that is intended to be "artsy fartsy."

Indeed, it's the same art direction as the unreal series. A very simple check list:

Big Men

Big Suit

Ugly men in big suits

Ruined environments

Blood

EPIC wins!

Art is subjective. I found some of the colors, architecture, and lighting to present a beautiful artistic styIe. I still laugh at the fools who say it's all dark and brown. Obviously, they haven't played it, have a bad memory, didn't finish it, or are flat out fooling themselves.
