So does this mean Uncharted 2 is still graphics queen?

So it seems like Uncharted 2 still hold up to the best looking console game. KZ3 had a shot but just missed, then came Crysis 2, but it had a lot of performance issues and didn't hold up. And lastly...yikes this is awkward for 360 owners who have been hyping this games graphics to be the next king! Another reason why we should wait for games to be released before saying they are console graphics king... http://www.eurogamer.net/articles/digitalfoundry-vs-gears-of-war-3

Looks like UC2 is now console animation king lol I thought the killzone 2-3 were technically more impressive than uncharted 2, console graphic king would probably be a battle between KZ and gears 3.

I must say that I like you answer, but would you prefer we say "the best looking game on consoles." Either way, we are going to compare console graphics so you might as well let it slide.

uc2 never was king and never will. Killzone games are the true graphical and technical PS3 marvels, naughty dog said it themselves. Colors does not equal better graphics. Stop getting tricked by Colors

okay coming from me(who has beat uc2, rented crysis 2, borrowed KZ3, beat KZ2, and am currently playing geow3 at my cousins house via co-op ;), i can say UC2 surely is more impressive than all of these (overall). most of these game look better in different departments, but UC2 is all around best looking and performance wise as well. KZ2 and GOW3 also look very good

well many were praising a game to be the best looking console game, and now that it is out, the game still looks good, but not as good as uc2. to answer your question, i'd say "never count you chickens before they hatch"

Getting tired of graphics threads ? wait until UC3 releases then were gonna need a sticky.TheGuardian03

The'll be so many fights between UC3 and Gears 3 fans about which looks superior.

And we'll never find out which looks superior, because over all the'll be almost unnoitceably different...

Granted I haven't played gears 3 yet, I am pretty sure it looks better than UC2.

And I don't know how people are saying crysis 2 on consoles was console graphics king

Why continue to make these threads when graphics are subjective? Your opinion is not fact TC. Majority of the gaming world think Crysis 2 LOOKS better, regardless of tech issues. You cant skew the information to fit your argument. Crysis 2 does more than UC2, and the majority think it looks better. Deal with it and move on. Your opinion is allowed to be different

Yes it was.

I don't have a PS3. I do have a PC, 360 and Wii.

Crysis 1 is still graphics king overall. I played Crysis 2 on PC. BUT....

Crysis 2 was stated as the best looking console game by many review sites. No other game has earned that claim since. Some sites said Gears of War 3 is the full realization of the 360 console, but have not compared it to Crysis 2 for people to know for sure.

The one site that bagged on Gears of War while praising Uncharted was Eurogamer. It's hard to take their link seriously when they posted such a review to begin with.

while it looks good, it's kinda slow and has frame rate issues. but then again i was playing co-op. but trust me, i am a guy who doesn't care if a game out does another. i'd gladly admit if it did have better graphics, but sadly i can't.

Not that I care, but I was completely oblivious to the fact that there's a Gears 3 sticky. :P

So true. I dont know were people keep getting that idea from. Based on that read from DF, Gears 3 is still beneath UC2 technically. I cant comment personally because i have yet to play Gears 3.

UC2 was de-throned as console graphics king by Crysis 2 on xbox 360... and if you ask me, having now played Gears 3, it would seem that the venerable Crysis 2 has actually been de-throned by Gears 3... it's no stretch to state that the xbox 360 currently has the best looking game on console... but UC3 is coming so cows may yet regain the throne...

Because the cows confidence in Uncharted 3 scoring a 9.5 or better to beat Gears 3 is starting to weigh them down. They will never hear the end of it if Uncharted 3 doesn't outscore gears 3

At this point it´s just a matter of opinion since many games on the hd twins look about the same. In my opinion:

1 - Gears 3

2 - Crysis 2

3 - Uncharted 2

4 - Red Dead Redemption

5 - Killzone 3

Who cares, the differences have become so small...I remember being wowed by Gears 1, Oblivion, Uncharted, Killzone2 and Uncharted 2...since then, differences are almost irrelevant...but if you ask me, Killzone2 is still the king. It has incredible animation, incredible realistic AI, Lightning, dynamic environments, explosions and particle effects. While others may have better textures (Gears 3 ) or better animations (Uncharted2), I still think overall Killzone 2 wins. God of War 3 has the best graphics in some places, but other things are just bad in that game.

From a technical perspective, Gears of War 3 wins. From an artistic perspective, it could be any game depending on your tastes, which is why I think Uncharted 2 looks better than Uncharted 3. And cows and hermits will never admit it, but Gears 3 looks beautiful.

My copy of Crysis 2 was on the 360 and I completely disagree. The game has very good textures that make it look great at times, but it's such a technical mess that overall it failed to impress me. The screen tearing, frame rate, and texture pop-ins were so prevalent that it's flaws became more glaring than it's strengths. I am still far more impressed with what U2 does from a visual standpoint, regardless of any of the technical stuff going on behind the scenes. It may just be my opinion, but I know there's nothing wrong with my eyes.

its funny, the denial by some people who only have 360 to think that gears3 and crysis 2 are the top graphics games for consoles.

lads serius go rent a ps3 and play uncharted 2 (not killzone2/3 god of war 3 etc just uncharted 2),"buuut i have played it and it doesnt have better graphics" noone will believe you, everyone that has played uncharted 2 (not just watched videos on youtube) will say that it has the best graphics on consoles. not just on a technical standpoint but overall graphics nothing beats uncharted 2 on consoles and its a game from 2009... give it a rest plz. waiting for uncharted 3 to put a tombstone to all the crybabies out there.....
