Nice, posting DATED and OLD MGS4 pics, that snake model isn't even the final one....gsus.

Games4thewin

Nice ones. But you can post 100 more, it still wouldn't change anything. He's right.

obviously, but MGS4 for the hardware it was ON, is VERY and technically impressive..character model details stand up to even the most graphics PC titles (obviously not as good, but still VERY good) People don't understand how the awards are looked at. Besides Crysis won last year....who cares.

Nope...don't ASSUME things. MGS4 technically is impressive...PC is obviously more powerfull, but why would GS nominated PC games every year? and besides, MGS4 is dam impressive for PS3 hardware. shame some don't understand how it works.

I disagree. I'm a fan of MGS and MGS4s visuals weren't very stunning, nor were they an indiction of how 'powerful' or visually capable the PS3 is at all..... Its art style, character models, and scripted sequence animations (facial too), and minor details were the strongest.... I cant say there was anything that really knocked me back exept for a few particular sequences in the game, that really impressed me.

In all due respect even the gameplay was a bit off at times - in a limbo between nostalgia and unevolved gameplay mechanics, that really conflict against the settings and change of focus in game design.

It was a great game no doubt; though the best thing it has going for it, is its story and characters as the metal gear solid saga is wrapped up.

You just don't understand....typical PC fanboy response. MGS4 for this YEAR, is the most impressive out of the bunch according to gamespot and MANY others, why would they nominated a PSP title...yikes. if it were your logic, PC games would be won every year.....

Screenshot in my personal opinion don't do a game any justice for how good it look, you really have to see it in action for yourself to truely appreciate the style and work the developer have put into the game itself. With that all said I think they made the right choice by giving Metal Gear Solid IV and not the other games that were in it.

[QUOTE="Bebi_vegeta"][QUOTE="DonPerian"] An SDTV's resolution is equivalent to a 1.3 megapixel camera. A 1080P HDTV set is equivalent to a 2 megapixel camera. Not much of a difference. But no, I am not saying there is no difference.DonPerian

SDTV doing 1.3 megapixel??? Can you explain to me how you got that number...

I am a professional photographer and have to downsize my work to 1.3 megapixels and a 4:3 ratio to show clients their photos. It is the exact resolution of an SDTV. Just as 1080p resolution is almost exactly 2 megapixels.

Do you know what resolution SDTV is? If yes, then please tell me so we can laugh at your statement.

Edit : BTW, you do know that you can resize any picture to fit your resolution with zoom in and out or even fit the screen... next time press the button actual size.

:| I can't believe the stupid logic used in this thread.

"You need a high-end PC to play Crysis at the level where it looks better than MGS4."

"MGS4 is on a weaker system therefore it has better technical graphics."

"MGS4 uses cutscenes better therefore it has better graphics."

Idiots. Anyone who thinks that these are valid arguments for the notion that MGS4 rightfully won that award need to get checked in the head by a doctor.

aliblabla2007
they need to get checked in the head bu a bullet
[QUOTE="sdu_1111"]

Why the denial?

MGS4 is winning awards everywhere. not even gamespot.

so now cause there's prob one tiny department "technical graphics" that warhead can probably outdo MGS4 hermits are gonna make a big hooha?

MGS4 won best tech graphic award at GS. deal with it.

10>8.5.

logic.

For somebody who likes logic, your post is surprisingly illogical.

indeed it is... in that case, going by scres, BRAID has better graphics than warhead :|

Using gamespot screenshots? Really? The same people who capture low res PC video and screenshots and pretend that they are really high def. Then they try to pass them off as a comparison with console graphics? Not to mention they propigate the 2K rig myth. You're using a horrible Crysis screenshot.

No actually I did it fair! This whole thread is how Crysis is so uncomparable to MGS4! I took a snap shot set on mid settings and a snap shot from the PS3! That is fair and very comparable to say otherwise is pure fanboyism! And no thats not the worst shot from Crysis Warhead! I could post a picture of the blocky character modeling done for the game.

You're using a source who is known to downscale and use horrible PC screenshots and source video in their comparisons. If you want to have a valid comparison, atleast get a halfway decent screenshot. That is a horrible screenshot of Crysis through and through. Period.

:| No.

You do NOT compare graphics by lowering the graphics to "make it fair". If you want to compare tech graphics between games, you will have to use the MAXIMUM potential for either or else you're unfairly tipping the scales to suit your personal fanboy bias.

Trying to argue that you have to compare them at the same level is moronic in every way - considering that being a the same level means that there's no need for comparison anyway, and besides, the System Wars is based off the concept "you get what you pay for".

Obviously, you pay more for a PC to experience superior graphics. I share few opinions with lowe0, but he's completely right in saying that it's all about marginal price vs marginal superiority.

No right back;)

I'm not a fan of either and I can honestly say they are comparable I took snap shots from both on this website and to say Crysis on medium and MGS4 can not be compared would be fanboyism.

And to play that game on "high" with it's "superior graphics" and have it run smooth would be almost on a 3,000 dollar rig. So how many can afford to play that "superior" part?? Huh?? I wonder:roll:

The logic also says that M2TW is less graphically impressive than Half-Life 1, than Call of Duty 2 had worse graphics than Call of Duty 1 and that Warcraft 3 looks better than CoH. :lol:

*Sigh*

Do I have to drill the damn thing into your skull? What I am saying is that yes, IF YOU WANT TO GET THOSE SUPERIOR GRAPHICS YOU WILL HAVE TO PAY FOR IT, DUH. And if you think playing Crysis on high requires a 3k rig, you're probably an ultra computer illiterate. You'll be running Crysis high by building a rig for a quarter of the price. Or less, some can get one with a six hundred bucks.

MGS4 on the PS3 is not MGS4 on medium. There's only one setting, and the graphics are only affected by the display. A PC game is different, there is no "default setting", but obviously we use the highest one because in a graphics competition, YOU TAKE THE DAMN BEST OF ONE AND COMPARE IT WITH THE BEST OF THE OTHER.

No actually I did it fair! This whole thread is how Crysis is so uncomparable to MGS4! I took a snap shot set on mid settings and a snap shot from the PS3! That is fair and very comparable to say otherwise is pure fanboyism! And no thats not the worst shot from Crysis Warhead! I could post a picture of the blocky character modeling done for the game.

:| No.

You do NOT compare graphics by lowering the graphics to "make it fair". If you want to compare tech graphics between games, you will have to use the MAXIMUM potential for either or else you're unfairly tipping the scales to suit your personal fanboy bias.

Trying to argue that you have to compare them at the same level is moronic in every way - considering that being a the same level means that there's no need for comparison anyway, and besides, the System Wars is based off the concept "you get what you pay for".

Obviously, you pay more for a PC to experience superior graphics. I share few opinions with lowe0, but he's completely right in saying that it's all about marginal price vs marginal superiority.

No right back;)

I'm not a fan of either and I can honestly say they are comparable I took snap shots from both on this website and to say Crysis on medium and MGS4 can not be compared would be fanboyism.

And to play that game on "high" with it's "superior graphics" and have it run smooth would be almost on a 3,000 dollar rig. So how many can afford to play that "superior" part?? Huh?? I wonder:roll:

:|

And I thought you couldn't get any worse. I can play the game on high and my rig costs roughly $550. About near the price of a PS3, no?

Do I have to drill the damn thing into your skull? What I am saying is that yes, IF YOU WANT TO GET THOSE SUPERIOR GRAPHICS YOU WILL HAVE TO PAY FOR IT, DUH. And if you think playing Crysis on high requires a 3k rig, you're probably an ultra computer illiterate. You'll be running Crysis high by builing a rig for a quarter of the price.

MGS4 on the PS3 is not MGS4 on medium. There's only one setting, and the graphics are only affected by the display. A PC game is different, there is no "default setting", but obviously we use the highest one because in a graphics competition, YOU TAKE THE DAMN BEST OF ONE AND COMPARE IT WITH THE BEST OF THE OTHER.

(Facepalm)

(Sigh)

No again! Wow I wonder why GS picked it(MGS4)? Hmmm I wonder maybe their logic was because you can upgrade your rig and get some extra sharper images and consoles cant maybe they thought that would be unfair since you pay for that option and can have it when you want? HUH just maybe that might be their logic. And on the other hand maybe their logic was MGS4 is impressive? WOW who would have thought??

I don't really want to stoke the fire here anymore, but the word "Technical" has to be in the title for a particular reason. Otherwise, the award would simply be called "Best Graphics". I'm still scratching my head trying to figure out what exactly "Technical" means in this case, but I guess I'll just leave that up to Gamespot.

Do you see anything about PRICE in BEST TECHNICAL GRAPHICS? Hmm?

By your logic, when comparing two people in a "tallest person award" the shorter guy should get it because his genes had decided something he could do little about. :roll:

That's like asking "which had better graphics: Starcraft or Crysis?" Then saying that Starcraft looked better because it came out 9 years earlier.

/facepalm

you compare games at the highest graphical settings or you don't at all, besides I don't see anywhere in the award writen "crysis is compared at medium"

(Sigh)

Then they need to put PC in a different category since you get to add a 400 dollar graphics card whenever you want! I mean really:roll:

there are 2 awards for graphics (Artistic and Technical)

Artistic: more subjective, its not about hardware horsepower or resolutions, but about attractive and usually charming graphics (SMG won last year)

Technical: this is less subjective. this is all about resolution, textures, draw distance... you know, the 'technical' stuff

I wonder how many people think that the system being weaker or cheaper somehow makes the games on it have better graphics. I really do. :|

Come on, think like that and you can slam MGS4 for being on a system that's more expensive than the Xbox 360, therefore "making MGS4's graphics weaker" or whatever dumb crap these guys come up with.

I taught this was a an award based on the game and not the hardware? And that would make Crysis the better technical graphic game to date.

that's up to them, if they put the award for best graphics in a game they should give it to the game with the best ones everything else is just stupid. It's like 2 people running for 500m and guy A wins, but guy B gets the award beacose guy A used runing shoes while guy B was barefoot, well it's not guy's A problem that guy B didn't put on his shoes, beside the PSP is cheaper and got worse hardware (to contunie the analogy from before, that's guy C - without legs), why didn't god of war get the award? (your own logic)

Why does it seem people want to handicap Crysis so much. Although even on Mid range I still think it looks better than anything on the other systems.

They are also brining price in to this, but 'forgetting' that you really need a HDTV to see the MGS 4 HD Graphics, which would even out with a computer that could run Crysis on High.
