Sure we can agree that Crysis Warhead is among the prettiest, but does it have the personality?siLVURcross
Maybe not. I guess MGS4 deserved to win the "Best Personality" award after all. Oh, wait.

It doesn't matter how great your graphics are, it matters how well you present them. which is why MGS4>Warhead.

[QUOTE="Toriko42"][QUOTE="Wasdie"]Why is MGS4 winning so much? Crysis Warhead looks miles better!!!Killfox
Yes but MGS graphics have style and they used visuals to create unique moments and to involve you in the gameplay. Warhead is technically great and has lots of nice animations but even then the visuals don't go farther then that.

You just owned yourself. You just said Crysis warhead is technically great. So your saying that gamespot giving MGS4 best technical graphics was the wrong choice??? Because thats what Im getting from it.

We're arguing about Giantbombs best graphics not Gamespots technical graphics

Not techincal graphics. So this result makes much more sense.

Still though, I think Warhead simply looks better.

You mean everyone knows Crysis WH is just like Crysis which was released last year.

Which is still graphically more intensive and better than anything else out there.

I don't people look at it the wrong way, not that MGS4 looks better than Crysis Warhead, but that is did advance greatly in own technical specs next to say Warhead verus Crysis.

People should realise this wasnt about the game with the most pixels or realistic trees. MGS4 won overall due to its amazing art style, body/facial animation and epic graphical moments that captured a range of emotions to tell its story.

IMO Shadow of the colossus has better graphics than crysis.

Damn pixel whores :P

MGS4 Multiplayer is excellent and starting a match is simple, im sorry TC but after reading the first few lines of your post i stopped!

What a load of rubbish, try playing some PC Games if you want a hard time getting a multiplayer match.

I still can not work out why so many people hate on the multiplayer its becoming quite sad really, and im willing to say you have never played it TC.

Artstyle is probably one, if not the most important part of graphics. Its what seperates generic from epic.

I think it more to do with how far advanced the graphics came to be in game such as MGS4 on that system from previous stuff, stacked against Warhead against previous (Crysis)'s advancements.

LOL no. With those textures Gears 2 is nowhere near the best-looking game.

lulz don't talk about texture Geow 2 destroys MGS4 in the texture department aswell,and i played both and geow2 clearly looks better and its scale is bigger.

I would like to see all these reviewers playing Warhead and MGS4 on the same HDTV everything as optimal as it can be and then look me in the eyes and say MGS4 seriously looks better. If they could say that with a straight face I'd shut up, but until then I'll just have to call them blind idiots.

Not surprised about this one tho, it's just a general award and not technical graphics, and while I like them giantbomb/jeff is teh mother of all consolites, it took him like half a year to review the first pc game, and that was something like bionic commando...

Perhaps a new, mandatory rule was put into place recently that determined whether one can become/stay being a game reviewer. That rule is plucking out your eyeballs.

thing is I still play better games than console game, what all you have is action, rpg's and fps. Well guess what I have alot more genres and alot more games. All you console gamers have is hot air and media hype.

must Console games just look pretty with little or any real gameplay tell me why would I care for something like that

I think the reason Crysis Warhead is losing all the awards is because even though it can technically look better, it requires a lot more powerful hardware. If they got it to look maxed out on the PS3 or 360, then it would probably be winning awards left and right.

By your logic no PC games should ever get graphics awards, because they are using more powerful hardware than consoles :roll:

Why should console capability even be considered in a platform neutral comparison?
