Easy tiger, I don't mean to offend. Just those pics look like your classic bullshots is all.

balfe1990

Again, have you played the game? I didn't notice anything in the pics that I didn't see during actual gameplay.

I haven't no:shock:.

But I'd be suprised if the game actually looked exactly like that.

I don't know why you're taking this so personally though. I never said the game was ugly. Its one of the better looking console titles in fact.

There, I said it. You can rest in peace now.

you won't think it's so peaceful when i send rico after you... :P

no but really killzone 2 looks gorgeous to this day and is #3 in terms of technical graphics on the consoles.

And I can truly appreciate that its a great looking game.

But when you appear to say otherwise, some people act like you've just eaten their first-born

just horrible I have the demo on my ps3 and damn i don't even know how ppl consider it the best looking game on the ps3. The controls for the game are also awful.

blaznwiipspman1
the game is aweful, but it looked great console wise. I wouldn't judge the visually by just the demo. Still not worth the 60 dollars I spent on it. I played about half the game campaign before stopping and the multiplayer was just a rocket feast.

I highly doubt Lens of truth is a good indicator, play both games and judge for yourself. Len of truth of a tendency of over exaggerating and cherry picking screenies

VensInferno

that was just a performance analysis. On a technical level resistance 2 just doesn't cut the mustard.

Hell, it even looks worse than resistance fall of man because of all the bright colors and ugly bloom everywhere. The atmosphere and art also took a nose dive in resistance 2.

Resistance 3 on the other hand... looks pretty fantastic.

No way does resistance 2 look better than fall of man. I am replaying fall of man right now, there is a very noticeable improvement in R2, not to mention the feeling of the controls are much better in R2. But I agree with the art style taking a noise dive in R2

Didn't mean on a technical level. But to be honest Art trumphs all. Resistance 2 looks flat out ugly most of the time...

HANG ON.

I know we're all entitled to our own opinions and graphics are subjective and all the rest of it but that sentence is just WRONG.

Console Black Ops looks very poor, apart from set-peices which obviously don't count.

Looks good to me, the art quality is pretty high.

It's no PC game, and those backgrounds are merely textures pasted to a wall, but still ... looks good.

Halo Reach does look pretty,but I wouldn't say it's one of the best looking this gen.I might say that about the art style though.

I would say character models fall into KZ2's hands quite nicely.

GreyFoXX4

I think Elites look at least as good if not better ;)

And i thought i would add in a little New Alexandria ;) Halo Reach Isn't the best looking game this Gen. but anybody who says its a bad or average looking game has no idea. It looks FANTASTIC.

The skyboxes are really beautiful, but the rest of the graphics are sub-par. The character models are horrendous. There is some bad texture working. The gun models are low detail. The fire and smoke effects are just plain bad. 343 has some work ahead of them if they want the next Halo to be awe-inspiring.

Well for one it would be be better to use gameplay pics. Still there are a lot of games that look much better than Halo Reach, it's highlights are really in it's skyboxes, and it has some nice explosions as well, everything else is alright.

halo reach single player probley had the most framerate issues ive seen this whole generation in a shooter.

halo reach's multiplayer runs pretty good, but the single player will hitch/chop the hell up at times it feels unpolished kinda.

I'm sorry. Personally, it's just a meh looking game. When you see gears of war, kill zone, and especially uncharted you would entirely disagree. Thats not even including the PC. The vistas and big areas looks pretty but up close...it's not that great, i think you would be better to argue gears 2 personally

the tree's shadows on halo reach are a joke also, the shadows arent even accurate to the shape of the tree, the tree shadows way better on black ops.
