Bioshock disagrees.BlueBarad

Whaaart? BioShock is good and all but it wasn't spectacular graphics wise. Certainly no Gears.

Uncharted, Heavenly Sword, Lair, R&C,COD 4, and Bioshock to me > GeOW graphics wise.Chutebox

Uncharted = possible. We'll have to wait 'til it comes out.

Lari = no way. Have you played Gears and Lair? Lair has nothing on it. It has impressive water and dragons, everything else is a great big meh.

Heavenly Sword = no, because look at any texture close up and things fall apart

R&C = amazing. I love the graphics, but it's hard to tell which is better because the art styles are so different.

COD4 = no. Not from the beta at least.

Bioshock = No. No explanation necessary, it just doesn't look as good.

Not when it has the technical problems it does. That's like running Crysis on full specs but only getting 2fps.

Gears might technically have the best graphics to date, but Bioshock has a much better artistic style, and so does Oblivion.Baurus_1

EEEEEEEW look closely at ANY of the textures in Oblivion... AND PUKE! the faces...

[QUOTE="T_0_D"]I recently went back and played some Gears campaign and it is still quite an amazing experience (albiet a rather short one). Graphics are a subjective entity so saying one game is the best is hard but Gears is still a very special game in the graphics department and is still one of my favorite games to play online with friends. I reserved COD4 for 360 today because I love tactical shooters and that one looks pretty sick as well.cobrax25

COD4 a tactical shooter?

lol.

You obviously have not played the COD games with myself or any of my friends...I invite you to come join us and I will show you how "tactical" it can be. I love when people try and run and gun in team games...lol.

Released Nov. 7, 2006, Gears of War still has not been touched graphically. Not on the 360, and certainly not on the PS3. Lair failed to surpass it, and Uncharted certainly will not (gameplay videos are not nearly Gears quality). Let's wish a big happy birthday to a SYSTEM SELLER (for me personally, combined with the $200 premium at Microcenter deal) and current reigning GRAPHICS KING. Nothing coming out for the rest of the year looks as good as Gears, including AC and COD4.

It's amazing that it can be that good, for this long!

Something tells me you're particularly ignorant. What tells me this?

I can glean from your post that you've never played Lair....you've especially never played Ratchet and Clank Future Tools of Destruction....you've never seen Uncharted, and you've never heard anything from the president of Epic games on UT3 and Gears of War.

Sorry, Gears is already buried under heavy earth.

Gears was passed long ago on console. Lair while gameplay sucked was graphically superior, as well as HS and many other games.

Please stop making threads. They suck and they always talk about how great your Xbox 180 is. How many RROD have you been through by now after a whole year? 2, 3?

I am going to say Lair dethroned Gears graphically. Lair has huge draw distances, great dragons, huge detailed set pieces with nice textures, great lighting, amazing water, and craps loads on screen. Textures in Lair may lack compared to Gears, but the scale and wow factor of seeing lair makes up for that. The only problem in Lair graphically is the occasional tearing, it tears horribly, and slight delay chug when you get into a dragon fight. Lair if it had more polish would be undisputed graphic king but it appears irrelevant due to the smack down it got in the reviews.
