They are miles apart. Not even comparable. Still, it looks good for a console game though.

You wish. Even Pc games are miles off at this point. Current gen console would not even be able to reneder the content of a pixar movie at 1 frame per second. Same deal for most peoples PCs

Errr first of all there are few pc games that that even uses the same visual style as Ratchet and clank that is even close to that quality of visuals . What does pc have that is compareable? Sam and Max? And that game gets smoked by Ratchet and clank. You simply have no clue what your talking about. Yes the computers used fo render pixar films are extremly powerful but visually Ratchet and Clank does a pretty dam good job coming close to it. Go look at the old tory story movies. They look like crap compared to Ratchet and Clank( just to give you an idea of how far we have come. ) And yes there have been several industry insiders even the CEO of UBISOFT and Crytek that have said the next consoles will produce visuals on the level of Final Fantasy sprits within.

Kinda agree here, but Banjo Kazooie is another candidate. Well, that's probably it. Not much competition for CGI family-friendly games. Oh wait, there's also LBP.

Actually, LBP gives me a more "Pixar" feeling than Ratchet. Ratchet would be second, then Banjo Kazooie. Ratchet does feel kind of like WALL-E, though.

Looks so much better than Tools of Destruction graphical-wise.

I'm playing it now and it's such a great game.

Looks great, but its not close to pixar movies at all. Just 1 frame of a pixar movie takes several minutes to render on a computer, don't expect a game to render that kind of graphics in real time any time soon.

I think Banjo Kazooie Nuts & Bolts reminds me more of a Pixar movie.

Even more than i thought then, and what i said is actually misleading because it's not a single computer rendering it, they use a "rendering farm" which is a series of computers networked together, to render their movies. So yeah definitely not gonna see games with such graphics any time soon.
