i am getting pretty sick of all the biggest threads on system wars these days are about 360 vs ps3 graphics. This is a very old and tired debate ! This got old in 08 for god sakes .

Consoles are not about having the best graphics. its about having a cheaper simple gaming machine in your living room.

If you want graphics buy a gaming pc .

console games look decent but buy pretty much any decent gpu and it will pwn consoles .

It's what people here interests because it shows the power of the systems... which is the point of this board. Surely it's not the most important thing, but it's the best to choose when you want to comprare powers

Thats very true, games ALWAYS look better on PC, but its expensive to keep up with, so Ive never really experienced it for myself. For the record the best graphics Ive ever seen are in Final Fantasy XIII and Metal Gear Solid 4, both have nothing to do with which system they are on, granted that MGS4 is on PS3, that does not mean anything, I judge games based on presentation, not which console they are on.

can't agree more. it's lol worthy to have gfx arguements about a console that is a few months shy of five years old and another that is a few months shy of four years old.

at this point its pretty clearn that consoles are maxed out or very close to it . We know ps3 a small egde on 360. we also know that 360 for the most part gets better muilty plat games .

There is no point with beating this dead hores anymore .

when it gets to the point that console graphics cant improve anymore then i would agree with you but when every game release pushes the level a bit higher its still a valid point.

maybe but to me it looks more like dudes arguing over the performance of a 1932 ford pickup and a 1933 ford pickup.

it would probably end if certian gamers weren't so desperate to keep challenging the issue. There was a debate last gen between PS2 and xbox for graphics kings and even tho PS2 in my opinion has some truely amazing titles that xbox never totally overshadowed PS2 fans resigened to admit that the xbox(realistically)had the tech advantage, *:? No big deal, what's so hard about admiting something obvious?*and so more arguemts went toward game quality and number of impressive exclusive games.

The only reason why it's dragging out is because fanboys keep trying to holding on to old time arguements that they used to say, "this makes our system better!!!" that they can't realistically use anymore.

I always tend to stay away from topics like that. It's the same argument and gets too repetitive to laugh at.

Gameplay AND graphics > gameplay ;) If Mario Galaxy was a N64 graphics quality brown dreary game with blurry textures and terrible draw distance, would you enjoy it as much?

I have a GTX285 that technically destroys a PS3 yet UNC2 and GOW3 look better then most my pc games. What im getting sick of are Wii owners that cry about other people talking about graphics because there system is on par with the Gamecube.

It should be banned along with console exclusives. I blame Metal Gear Solid 4 for console graphics king.

It is a valid argument for SW, but I do agree that it goes overboard sometimes. Although granted, devs are always finding new ways to improve them on consoles (honestly, I thought Gears of War and MGS4 was as good as it was going to get on both platforms at the time :P), so you can't really judge the consumers for aiming high.

Welcome to system wars.Human-after-all
There's nothing wrong with the console graphics king threads, but the comparisons to Crysis need to stop. Crysis won the title of graphics king years ago, and it will never be beaten, because it is photorealistic. It can only be equalled, and even this will only happen at the earliest in the next generation of consoles.

How exactly was this decided? Because if it was based on user votes then an extreme level of bias will have been present.

It was GS editors. They said it was more impressive based on the limits of the PS3 hardware. Ie MGS4 did more with less. Not justifying it, just explaining it :)

Someone just said that they gave the best technical graphics award to Metal Gear Solid 4 because of how good the visuals it had were with respect to the PS3 system's extreme limitations. Had the award been given purely on graphics with no consideration of hardware constraints, Crysis Warhead would have won by far.

PC graphics are highly overrated.

The PC offers better graphics than consoles, albeit only by a moderate amount on the majority of games, for example multi-platform titles. Crysis however offers graphics incredibly far in advance of any other game that is available now or will be available for years to come. When tweaked above the standard game limits, Crysis is photorealistic. This level of visual photorealism can never be beaten; only equalled.
