last gen graphics king was CONKER ( look like a 360 game)

and in the N64 gen also CONKER was the graphics king ( look like a PS2 game )

and they released in the end of the consoles life

in this gen RARE start to make a realy good looking games (banjo is one of the best looking games this gen)

It would have looked good if they hadn't made it to all look like a plastic, Barbie-world FPS.

What happened to Doom 3? Both that and Far Cry looked way better than NG, IMO.

It was never excluded. And it looks miles better than anything on Consoles, IMO. As for consoles only, I would say Riddick, Doom 3, and Splinter Cell Chaos Theory were the three top console games last gen in looks.

Correct, The TC's entire premise is wrong. Rare makes okay to decent looking games, nothing more.Conker 64 NEVER looked like a PS2 game, and Conker Xbox never looked like a 360 game. The only way that foul premise works, is if you take the BEST of RARE and put it up against the WORST of PS2/Xbox360...and even then it's a stretch. I think the TC is a hardcore Xbox 360/Xbox/N64 fan, rather than a games fan of all systems making a very fair comparison.

how? the TC is ill informed, and the OP is biased. That post proves what it needs to prove using logic, your post is more likely the joke post.

That was my bad. I thought he posted a screen shot of Conker on N64 and was saying that was the Xbox version.

Oh, yeah, if that were the case, it would be a joke post. I'm glad you re read it, I cant tell whos yanking chains around here, and who's legitimately posting sometimes.

I don't agree. I own every game they made on Xbox and 360.Your opinion is that they make impressive looking games, my opinion differs. They aren't bad looking, though, just Okay to decent. I played Kameo and launch, and PD0 at launch, and came away VERY unimpressed with those games graphically. I guess I expected more out of my 2005 launch 360.

seeing as how PDZ and Kameo were launch games which still hold up today (graphically) i'd say they did a pretty good job

Exactly. It sounds like you just had high expectations of the consoles this gen, nothing to do with Rare and their abilities.

I guess it comes down to if you feel they hold up today. I don't think they do, they look like launch titles to me. I would agree that if you feel they are holding up, then you are right, from your perspective. I would still say the TC is wrong about Rare making the Graphical Kings of every gen though.

GoW 2 was a real good looker, and that HD mode was pretty awesome, even I have to admit.

Still, it's tough to put a label on as king, when games like Riddick came out on Xbox, even against a looker like God of War II.

Also, weren't the Donkey Kong Country games some of the best looking on the SNES? I guess the SNES is harder to judge graphics wise than 3D consoles though.
