That's completely false. PC games don't feature linear games in a closed space that hold your hand. This is why you don't see games like Uncharted or The Order 1886. These games would flop. See what Uncharted looks like now that they trying open-world?

Divinity looks better than Uncharted 4. Crysis 3 still shits on anything consoles have to offer. So does ARMA III. Not even close.

You got balls comparing a heavily compressed YT grab of UC4 with a supersampled Arma3 shot, shows how desperate you are really. UC4 along with The Order, Drive Club, Infamous SS and even Killzone SF take a giant dump on Arma 3 and 99% of PC games out there it's not funny. Right now only AC Unity, Ryse and TW3 on PC are somewhat comparable, yet given the gulf of processing power it's down right embarrassing for PC gamers. This is why I don't bother investing in GTX980 or i7 these days, instead I buy better sound system, bigger HDR, quantum dot TV and comfier couch instead.

Lol do you even PC game bro? Your PS4 games are adequate for a console with a tablet CPU and a 2012 GPU. ARMA has better textures, bigger draw distances, higher resolution shadows, more particles and beats PS4 games at pretty much everything. I will however concede that PS4 exclusives tend to have better animations and facial expressions. Strictly talking about the environment? It's not even close and it is factual. Not just an opinion. Crysis 3 also craps on all console games and it's freakin 2 years old. Why do I even bother with you? You don't even have a decent rig.

You honestly think think pile of garbage looks better looking than most PC games? This crap?

haven't seen a sinlge PC game where I was jealous over the graphics. PS4 graphics are in the same ballpark as the best looking PC game so I don't even notice much difference if at all.

Have you seen them in person or only online? You need a 1440p IPS monitor to appreciate PC gaming in its full glory. No crappy youtube footage or screenshots can replace that. My boy has a PS4 and every time he comes by he tells me his PS4 looks a lot worse than my PC. According to him my BF4 on Ultra at 1440p looked a gen ahead of his PS4 version.

Okay we get it video games don't look as good as we think they do and it'll take another console generation to get the graphics we want but by then our expectation for better graphics will be even higher so we'll never be satisfied videos games have gotten to a point where its very hard to push graphics without needing the latest technology because consoles need to be compact and affordable and PC developers want to make sure more people on different and older hardware have the chance to play the game *gasps for air*

I like how you cherry picked pre-alpha shots (one from the concept tech demo LMFAO) and compared it to The Blur 1886 dev bullshots and photomode caps. Pathetic.

Oh you see how cherry picking works now, maybe tell the morons who cherry picked bad The Order shots to be more fair. Besides, all The Order shots are real time in game quality straight from the ps4, no bullshots no tricks. Despite photomode, it's 100% realtime, you can even play the game with any filter, film grain, vignette, etc enabled. Try harder.

Hardly 80%, more like 30%, it's a lot but still doesn't take away from its real time graphics achievement.

PC games look better....you just have to spend 3x the amount of a PS4.

Hermits seem to think all PC games, in general, look better.....it depends on your system.

The whole price/performance and general use gets thrown out the window with the hermits here.

But those screenshots are still from the latest/final builds compared with other actual in game footage. What you did was "prototype vs bullshots".

Here are some shots from the new build. Look like Destiny, not sure what's to be impressed graphically really.

They are all 1080p direct feeds, GS sometimes re-sizes the upload to fit on the page.

Thing about photomode in TO, it obscures what makes the game look worse than PC's top 5+ games. IE: Having the camera zoomed into a gun and everything else blurred beyond recognition doesn't really show you how the game performs graphically.

This is how it actually looks while you play it

Most of the PC developers have not high budget and support of big publisher like M$, $ony, people never understand this thing. Even though The Vanishing of Ethan Carter is one of the good looking games of last year.
