Heh!
Tales of Monkey Island… end of story
Really? Halo, as a series, is well behind other next-gen games in all of these departments. They have a unique and colorful art style, but that doesn’t cover up the lack of detail in their environments. The gameplay and weaponry throughout the series is your standard shooter fare which we’ve seen on the market for years. Their voice acting isn’t as memorable as other titles and is laughably bad in some of the games (ODST specifically).
Don’t fool yourself. The mere fact that a title/series is a commercial success does not make it a technically good game, especially when it comes to talking about the technical aspects of games like visuals. The fact that they can sell overpriced special edition copies is just evidence that Microsoft can get away with milking extra revenue from Halo fanboys just as Activision is making bucketloads of cash from their CoD franchise. The games aren’t bad, per se, but they can’t compete with other developers who are innovating the way games are created and played. The devs and publishers know this, but it doesn’t matter - there is no motivation to make a truly awesome and polished game when you can get the same return in half the man hours by making an average title instead
With regards to the topic and best looking game, my pick is Rage…screenshots don’t do it justice. The wasteland environment isn’t anything we haven’t seen before, but holy fuck does it look good.
Crysis. At points it was just pure beautiful.
Metro 2033 is probably the best looking game I have played of late. The developers really nailed the atmosphere, there’s mountains of detail in the game.
Admittedly it looks quite realistic too, but it’s still the best looking game I have played recently.
Random googled screenshot:
That was a good looking game but the devs wayyyy over did the screen effects. It hurt my eyes to play it.
oh oh Out of This World . thats games amazing and eaisly as cool as it is stupid
:facepalm: I seem to be the oly one who’s mentioned Fallout 3, right?
Something tells me you’ve only played the 360 version, which will lead me to my next point: It looks exponentially better on the PC. It supports DX 11 and is a damn nice sight maxed out. Too bad even a quadcore with a GTX 480 still gets knocked down to 34-36 fps when it gets heavy.
That’s because it isn’t very good looking. The atmosphere is brilliant sure.
But everything is brown. And it’s not exactly a sight for sore eyes. And it uses the Oblivion engine which, if you ask me, is starting to show it’s age.
Bethesda should use Rage’s engine for TES V and Fallout 4.
They should use the ULTIMATE UNREALCRYRAGE ENGINE 4000A
they should use the uniracers engine
The best looking game i’ve ever seen has got to be Uncharted II, although I’ve never played it. The character animation is light-years beyond every other game to date, it’s on a completely different level.
So you want to mix an overused, overrated engine with a badly optimized one and also with another that suffers from a bad case of object pop-up?
Use the Pong Engine, I think it’s cool.
Myst 4. Granted, mostly pre-rendered scenery, but they do an incredible job making it immersive. Every scene is a huge panorama with a fancy paralax effect and extra things (like small animals and light effects) happening in real time.
They do all sorts of tricks that make you completely forget it’s based on pre-rendered images and animations.
(I wish I could say Riven, but that one has not aged well. It had really great artwork, but it was all about detail. High detail, locked at 640x480 pixels, does not look good any more).
For some reason screenshots never do it justice, though. It feels really spectacular in action…
I hope they would’ve fixed that by the 4000th version?
Maybe with revision B.
